Overall Satisfaction with Brightspace

We use Brightspace for all of our classes. All students have access to Brightspace in order to access their classes, and many of the staff and faculty have access to either teach classes, keep up with calendars, or in my case, keep up with all of the syllabi and grades.
  • I love that Brightspace is easy to use. Everything is pretty self-explanatory.
  • Although I am not in the IT department, it seems like they are able to customize Brightspace quite a bit to meet the school's and instructors' needs.
  • The only con that I can think of right now is that Brightspace does not integrate with our SIS. However, I believe this is an issue with our SIS. I have been told that it can be done, but we are still looking into making that happen.
  • Brightspace has been an excellent LMS. It is much better than our old one.
We switched to Brightspace from Blackboard, and it is much better. It can do a lot more, and it is much more user-friendly.
Brightspace is great for any school that offers online or blended courses, or any school that requires students to complete assignments online.
