"WebAssign Review"
What do you like best about WebAssign?

WebAssign is pretty easy to use. There is not much to get the hang of. I like that the teacher can give multiple attempts. Does not compare amazingly compared to its competitors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about WebAssign?

So expensive. When I bought my textbook for my course it came out to $200 CAD. that's absolutely terrible price for an ebook. My peers paid through our school library and it was cheaper. Tried to contact them a countless amount of times, no one would help me or even refund half of the money. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"WebAssign takes the hassle out of creating and manually grading low-stakes assignments."
What do you like best about WebAssign?

I like that WebAssign provides various course assignments on a selection of course-relevant topics that I can assign for students. The information and feedback provided are plenty, and it eases the stress from me as the instructor to have this resource available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about WebAssign?

I dislike that assignments can't be customized. Sometimes a single question is not relevant to our course or students, and I'd like to remove it and keep the rest of the assignment, but this is not yet possible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Adequate homework-hosting site"
What do you like best about WebAssign?

The analytics let us quickly assess class performance and provide students with detailed help. However, sometimes when you input an equation into the answer box correctly, it will mark it as incorrect. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about WebAssign?

I don’t like how the instructor account is set up. It can be slightly l confusing and look scattered. It would be better if it was more organized. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"WebAssign math is a little clunky"
What do you like best about WebAssign?

It was nice to be able to help students with online math homework. It was more efficient than paper math homework. I also liked that it had the upload files ability, which I haven't seen in any of the other math homework submission systems that I have tutored students in. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about WebAssign?

It was difficult for my students to enter answers. It was not always clear what formatting was necessary, and entering the proper math formulas in the boxes was time-consuming and difficult, not like other systems I have used. They could get answers wrong for what seemed to be no logical reason. Buttons and menus also seems to be located in odd places. The system just reminded me of older systems, or systems I used in the early 90s, versus other math homework systems I have used that fit my 21st century organizational expectations.

"Great software for college level assignments"

I like how easy WebAssign is to use. It is easy for me to see assignments, due dates, and submit assignments. It has also always ran smoothly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about WebAssign?

Sometimes hard to enter special symbols, as you have to manually select them. It can also be hard to type in complex expressions with things like exponents, parentheses, subscripts, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"WebAssign Review"
What do you like best about WebAssign?

The think I like the best about webassign is its easy to use platform and software. The technology is seamless and never seems to do things that do not work. It is user friendly and I never have many problems using the application Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about WebAssign?

One of the things I dislike is the fact that the system for the application crashes often. There are many working parts to webassign and some things do not work well with Mac OS. It is important to be able to have a computer system that can run this well and not encounter bugs Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"WebAssign Review"
What do you like best about WebAssign?

WebAssign is a malleable product that allows for instructors to choose which questions they want their students to answer. It allows students to do practice problems with a small amount of guidance for the questions themselves. It generates questions that integrate multiple concepts to demonstrate their relationship to students. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about WebAssign?

It is not the most user friendly software, and can be tedious to use for the student. It is not the most helpful, and it's interface is cumbersome. It displays all of the questions on one screen, and this can be exhausting. Additionally, it randomly generates different problems for different student to minimize cheating.

"A buggy software that needs improvement"
What do you like best about WebAssign?

Webassign is a convienent way to assign homework for instructors. Its easily accessible for students to do their assignments. It autogrades homework. And gives good feedback if the student misses the question. It is also relatively customizable so instructors can choose what problems to assign to students. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about WebAssign?

Sometimes the website grades the problem incorrectly. It will sometime assign the incorrect number of points to a problem so the instructor has to go back and manuelly adjust the score. The website also requires that the students type in a precise answer in a certain format so even if the answer is correct, the student may get it incorrect for small reasons like this.
