Blackboard Collaborate Reviews & Product Details - Page 3

Blackboard Collaborate allows learners to do exactly that - colloborate.

Learners can use breakout rooms and interact with others using polls and chat

They can also share files as well! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is still lacking in that it needs to support digital backgrounds, including blurring out the backgrounds for privacy. Also, it takes up alot of bandwidth and sound quality can be poor on Chromebooks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Surprisingly easy to use and easy to combine with other elements of Blackboard, including the ability to use documents and files for students and professors. Also has intrinsic video support capabilities, including the means to broadcast video, audio, and screen-sharing for students. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Doesn't allow for the use of every type of document (although screen sharing can sometimes make up for this) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I enjoy the functionality of BB which continually improves, with new features and support is superb Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What i dislike is the lack of apps available to use as they seem outdated Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like how Blackboard Collaborate allows video conferencing and multi-use across many servers/users. I also like how easy it is to join meetings and navigate. There is no need for a tutorial because it is self-explained and super easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I'm not too fond of the mobile app function. I often have issues with audio when used on my phone. Suppose I get a phone call while during class, the sound will quit for the blackboard collaboration. I have to exit and rejoin to get sound back. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best feature is creating assessments and quizzes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

In general, I like BLackboard, and I don't have something specific that I dislike. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love the feature that I can see all chat history. Virtual class is their best feature. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Group conference is not very interactive like teams and other chat applications Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that it offers the ability to record a session, to place everyone in gallery view, it has functions for muting and turning off one's video. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The connection, the difficulty of sharing content, the inability to do much of anything if you are not the primary user who creates meetings (e.g., providing content in the comments section). Additionally connectivity problems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

ease of access to Blackboard Learning Management System Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

the video recordings take a bit too long to process Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Kids can easily share their screens. It's pretty self explanatory to use Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes the links just stop working. New features are rolled out slowly. You can't turn off chat/screen sharing in a breakout room. Users have to refresh multiple times per day because screen/audio/video stops working. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

At my institution we use Blackboard Collaborate as a plug-in within our learning management system, Canvas, which makes its use simple and easy. I use the tool to host virtual meetings and events with the students involved in career development and career advancement activities. The ability to invite external guests (like employers) makes this tool an important resource in providing students with exposure to a variety of speakers and topics. Overall, it is very easy to set-up sessions, start and end them, and to create recordings of the meetings and events for archival use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This tool does what is supposed to in a very easy way and as a add-on resource to Canvas, I don't really have much to say about it in terms of dislikes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
