Top Rated McGraw-Hill Connect Alternatives
The way the online text books integrate with the hard copy textbooks. The software makes it easy to use both in a way that supplements learning for those who've learned better online and those who learn better in a book. The crossover is just impressive because the software is easy to use in the content is easy to understand and learn. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There is, unfortunately, a communication disconnection between schools and this publisher. Because textbooks are sold from the bookstore of a school via an access code, McGraw-Hill support cannot assist with things like platform access because they did not directly sell the product to the student. When there is a problem with the system, it becomes very difficult for a student to keep up with classwork when they cannot get technical support from the publisher.

The first customer service agent I spoke with was extremely professional and competent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I'm on day 6 of my MBA course, and after not being able to access the textbook with inclusive access through McGraw Hill Connect until DAY 4 of my course, I'm now on DAY 6 and suddenly receiving "ERROR XXX - RMS USER SYNC ISSUE" errors preventing me from accessing the textbook or quiz entirely.
My quiz is due tonight and this terrible program is directly preventing me from completing my coursework. Not even 1 week in, and I've experienced nothing but issue after issue. If you can avoid using McGraw Hill Connect, do it like your life depends on it. This tool is completely unreliable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Connect is a very innovative tool that helps our students in higher classes to give them extra knowledge on their subjects like Maths and Computers. The concepts that are presented in their course structure, are very easy to understand, such that the teaching in classroom is complemented by the courses available on Connect. The concepts are very simplified in the course structure in form of video tutorials with modules like Algebra and Graphs. The material is drilled into the brains so well, that our students have started performing very well after we incorporated Connect. The homework and gradebook features are doing very good for our kids. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
In some videos, the instructors use language that has a little accent to it, which does make it a little difficult to understand for students who are from rural background. Other than that, everything seems to be fine. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
McGraw-Hill Connect offers a nice digital learning space to read and practice. It uses adaptive learning technology to personalize the learning experience. We can tailor content as per our comfortability and preference. The customization of the contents and delivery make the learning hours easy and likable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Users cannot pause and resume certain practice tests when there is a need, you need to finish what you started. Even though it simulates real world test scenarios, during many situations this could a pain in the neck. Another thing is about the technical glitches we endure sometimes.

Very easy to use and seamless integration with canvas. I use it almost daily for my school work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Sometimes it shows assignments from previous courses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Assigning textbook and resources the teachers is pretty straight forward. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I find that finding where you need to go to do the action you need to do can be difficult. There seems to be no way to remove students. Creating password for students can be an effort. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I love the variety of activities provided- tests, simulations, homework, quizzes, etc.. I also like that the videos are updated every so often and provide contemporary topics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The SmartBook grade goes to 0 when a student completes it pas the due date. That requires me to dig through the Connect gradebook which is hard to follow for these types of assignments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
nothing, I wouldn't wish this experience on my worst enemy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
everything, I constantly get logged out while i'm trying to read the textbook, probably 4 times in the past half hour. Constantly making me close the tab and log in all over again. The user interface is unbearable and it wont let you open another tab to read the texbooks while doing practice questions. It asked my to contact customer support if I experienced any issues only to show me their United States offices and a general support number that would probably push me over the edge if I tried calling.

The ability to SSO and post assignmetns in Schoology Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Only works well when using it a very specific way, there is no flexiblity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Online quizzes are more convenient to do and submit as opposed to physical quizzes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is expensive. And it makes it difficult for students to buy used textbooks for a better price. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The support chat feature is awesome and supportive without a bot. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I do not like having to assign the products to each class rather than it being integrated with the product being automatically assigned to the course name and grade level. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
