Brightspace is used by learners in higher education, K12, enterprise and association sector.
The customer support we get is fantastic. Very impressed by the patience of the many support people who help up us on a regular basis.
Users are limited to fairly cumbersome templates, and there is a lot of "dead space" between sections. The user is unable to trim this "dead space" and make the space more streamlined.
The tech support is amazing. I would not have been able to make my own site and have it functioning without their expedient, excellent and reliable support.
They sepnd a lot of time getting your business then ignore the problems.
It integrates the most features into what I want while giving me a ton of freedom to create the course how I want, to make my course look awesome, to integrate tons of media types.
There is a drip email feature that requires you to add the user 24 hours before you can send an email. This is a bit frustrating.
My experience with LearnWorlds has been wonderful. I do not have web design experience, but their highly customizable templates make it easy to create a beautiful website.
I was very passively sympathized with but given NO ANSWERS and NO HELP. Finally, this morning, I fixed the bug, and told customer service they could close that ticket.
I like the ability for there to be an online classroom and I like that it records the lectures. I like how the online classroom allows for screensharing and chatting also.
However, it is frustrating to use and has more case-by-case / glitching problems that other learning management softwares I have used.
Brightspace is very easy to navigate and customize. It looks very nice and many uses familiar with something like Wordpress will have a pretty easy time.
The program is cumbersome and after many student and instructor complaints our university has switched over to iCollege.
It's made school all the easier simply because of the ease that comes with the use of Brightspace. It's a great source, and I would recommend it to everyone.
Overall, my experience with Brightspace is negative.
The user-interface of the software is amazing and it's very easy to navigate through the courses. Moreover, the software has been easy to navigate in today's era of Blended Learning.
Brightspace provides multiple places to find the same things. This is confusing, especially when some assignments are loaded in a given course module but not in the 'Assignments' tab, or vice versa.
Lameshia C.: Hi, my name is Lameshia. I am founder and operator of marketing with Beesh. I work with four other individuals on the team and I will give LearnWorlds a five out of five. Some other platforms that I have used include Systeme, I have used Cartra, what's the other ones? There was something called Funnels King. There are a lot of different platforms that I come across. Sharp Spring, one, that was a white label agency, but I have used a lot of different platforms over the years. I came across LearnWorlds, I was referred to it by one of my clients and she was also comparing what to use and what will be really robust for what she does in health and wellness. I was looking at it with the features and being the marketing guru that I am, it wasn't too complicated. There were some workarounds that we can work with, but overall I felt it was a good platform to go with with what her offers were, and so I had built courses and funnels and schools, she has two schools around, what LearnWorlds has to offer. Th§e reason I decided to go with LearnWorlds was because of the robust features that it offers. You not only can create courses and build funnels on the front end wise as far as marketing is concerned, but it also takes care of the back end of the marketing. With the email marketing, with even just creating whole schools or academies, and so you can have your whole online business in this one platform across the board, you can really funnel everything in and make money in the process. It integrates with a lot of other platforms if you need it to and it was just a good fit. It was just really a good fit for the price as well. When it came to integrating for my client, she was really starting everything over. She did integrate her other email list from MailChimp and ConvertKit, but we used it seamlessly, but as far as starting the courses and the schools from the bottom up, it was well worth playing around with. We call it playing around when we're trying out a new platform and it was easy to navigate and the help and the support feature was ... I highly recommend it just because if you don't know what you're doing, there's a lot of platforms where you can't get that support feature to actually help you. I found that this is going to work well because I was able to help her, but she could also do it herself. I kind of was teaching her what to do and how to do it, where to find what she needed, and now she's able to do things on her own without me. If I was to offer a piece of advice when it comes to LearnWorlds, I would say to make sure that you know what it is that you have, what are your offers, what do you actually need, and then looking at the features of LearnWorlds and what it has to offer. When you find alignment in more than at least three to four of your offers and the options that you have, I think matching it up, making sure that the back end of your pieces are all put together and the front end connect to the back end is going to be seamless. This platform really allows you to do all of it and you don't have to just focus on one business. You could have multiple in that one platform that you log into. You're logging into one, but you could have multiple entities inside of it and then just create from there. If I had one piece of advice, it's just making sure that what you have will align and match up with what they have. It's really going to be good for a business who has a lot that they are willing to offer because once it's set up, then the rest will be seamless.
Yash C.: Hi, my name is Yash. I'm a student and I give Brightspace a rating of four out of five. For more reviews like this, click below. I use Brightspace for my day-to-day academic activities. Whether it's browsing through a course or learning new modules, Brightspace provides me with an extensive range of services, whether it's uploading assignments to instructors through the Dropbox option in Brightspace or downloading a PowerPoint which the instructor has done with voice over. The best part about Brightspace is the user interface. The programs and courses are listed in the main menu, and it's just very easy to browse through them. Moreover, one thing that I really like about Brightspace is that instead of emailing assignments to instructors individually, we can just go into Brightspace and use the Dropbox option to upload our assignments, which makes our work easier. One thing that I think Brightspace should change is, this is something that I've encountered with my courses after the pandemic when everything moved online, so our instructors used to do voice over PowerPoints and used to upload it on Brightspace and then we used to access it and go through them. I just feel that the PowerPoint user interface is a little bit old and it needs to be updated.
