I like the abuility to share content with myself to save time building courses for different sections of the same course. I like the Commons area and being able to share content with colleagues at my institution and abroad. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I would like to see them incorporate more options for creating learning activities without using so many third-party apps. Students that have all types of devices with varying systems can create problems with these. I use EdPuzzle often. I recently built a PD course for our univesrity system using Moodle and they had an embedded tool that worked just like EdPuzzle. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Canvas is flexible and makes it easy for me to customize courses to fit the needs of my learners and my course content whether I'm teaching high school, designing professional development, or teaching higher ed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There is a steeper learning curve than say Google Classroom, but it's time well spent for the amount of functionality! There are some ways I wish the SIS integrations were better and that some of the LTIs worked a little more fluidly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The thing I like best is the open ecosystem. Canvas integrates with hundreds of partners which makes it possible to do almost anything you want to do. You are not limited to just the tools in the LMS. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There are some things that seem dated in the LMS like the Inbox. It would be great if the inbox could be updated or integrated with on-campus email systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
We were a canvas school before the pandemic, but teaching in multiple modalities during the global health emergency wouldn't have be possible without Canvas. The skills learned by faculty have continued to be effective in a post-pandemic world in our differentiated classrooms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Some of the new features stay in beta for too long. New quizzes as an external tool limits some of the abilities in speedgrader which can be frustrating - it should be integrated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Cnavas gives teachers a way to plan out their lessons and give easy access to students, parents, and administrators. If offers teachers a way to diverentiate their teaching to meet the needs of their students while still providing them a viable education. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I honestly don't have anything bad to say. The only issue I have come across is in pairing observers with students. It seems to not go as smoothly as it should. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like the ability to creately design and deliver content to students. The lms is not limited to a linear format and work well with lti tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Because there are so many options for how to design a course, students may need to learn how to navigate each course if faculty do not use a consistent design. I actually like this feature, but it can be challenging for students if there experiences in the platform vary from course to course. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I have used several other platforms and the Canvas LMS is by far the most intuative platform out there. Student respond to it, faculty seem to navigate it well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I think the only downsides are there is always room for improvement and sometimes faculty demands at a single institution don't align with the needs of the masses, so Canvas LMS doesn't always meet a faculty need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like that Canvas is easy to use. There are a lot of features that are built in that are pretty neat and a lot of room to add additional features to help support learners. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It's not always intuitive until you understand the philosophy of the way the system is set up. Once you grasp that grade items in the gradebook are predicated upon assignments and other activities, the whole system begins to make sense. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I love how user friendly Canvas is for both students and faculty members. If set up correctly, it is very easy for all students to navigate through Canvas without the having to search for content in the course. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I think discussions boards could be better set up in Canvas. I wish admins had the ability to add teachers into closed courses withough having to reopen the course for everyone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

- support option should be more advanced like ai chatbot
- I really dont know why inbox section is there should push some notification for detail of completion and other activities Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
