Expand your Creativity

There is nothing. Its such an easy , fast and organised software. I find so many time saving options in this software. I simply love this.

The Last LMS You Will Ever Purchase
Comments: As a staple in higher education, online and hybrid learning have played a central role in offering courses to a geographically dispersed demographic of students. Canvas provides this ability with a solid product and reliable up time to help us meet these goals.
Pros:
A very powerful platform with a low threshold for adoption and ease of use. Our instructors rave about the intuitiveness of the course builder features and functionality. Since the pandemic, nearly all of the institution's thousands of courses have content online in Canvas - including the traditional in-person classes.
Cons:
Integration with our student information system required some additional outside services to that students, courses, and grades could be synced in real time in order to give students immediate access once enrolled for the class.

Alternatives Considered:
Integrated platform for learning.
Comments: It is the best learning platform to use since it easy to use and saves on time and resources.
Pros:
It is user friendly in that it saves on resources and also it easy to manage. Has a simple interface that is easy to learn and understand how it works faster. It has different variety of multimedia options. Runs on more than one operating system that is Windows, Linux, Mac and android. Can be integrated with various applications.
Cons:
It is a great to tool only that it for starters learning how to use it can be hectic and also the grading system should be upgraded.
