Overall Satisfaction with Google Classroom
Google Classroom is used by a subset of our employees to demonstrate the viability of a Google ecosystem in our choice of suites. Currently, we use Microsoft 365 as our productivity suite and Cornerstone OD as our LMS. However, I have extensive experience with G-Suite and think that Google apps can serve a certain population in our hospital. Managing education within that population has been far more intuitive with the use of Google Classroom in conjunction with G-Suite applications.
- Google Classroom work seamlessly with G-Suite applications, allowing us to create and share learning and materials and submit them for review and distribution
- Google Classroom is intuitive to use and easy to learn
- When using Classroom, the workflow of distributing assignments, receiving completed work, and providing feedback on the assignments is far more intuitive than in the enterprise LMS that we also use.
- Classroom works best for those in G-Suite environments. I have to extend accounts to non-Google users to offer its benefits.
- I would like to see Classroom add an annotation feature. Many of my educators request this option in their feedback workflow.
- Video submissions are often cumbersome depending on file type.
- Our deployment of G-Suite was fairly cost efficient, so the use of Classroom offered no negative financial impact
- Piloting Classroom has allowed us to weigh different options in an online learning environment.
- One of the goals is to be an employer of choice, and presenting new staff with a tool that intuitive and familiar helps us reach that goal.

A dedicated LMS is far more capable in providing control, customization, and analytics. Customer service from enterprise LMS clients also offers more options and support.
