Best LMS in my career
Reviewed on Feb 27, 2025
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
For the past 13 years, I have been managing D2L Brightspace, and in my 22-year career, it stands out as the best LMS I've encountered. Its user-friendly design, clean interface, extensive functionalities, and robust API are just a few of its many strengths. Additionally, the exceptional support provided by their professional and dedicated teams—ranging from admin and student assistance to management at all levels—further solidifies its position as a top-tier LMS.
What do you dislike about the product?
User profiles are not fully accessible out of the box, requiring the use of APIs to extract the necessary data. This initial setup may involve a steep learning curve, especially for those unfamiliar with the system or API integration.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Brightspace allows us to efficiently deliver online courses to a variety of audiences, including both institutional and external users, all within one instance.

Professional Training & Coaching
Brightspace is a great LMS for developing courses and hosting them.

Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
It has most of the features that a course developer and trainer needs to put on a suite of courses. It is fairly easy for course participants to use, if the course designer has put thought into the flow.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is somewhat expensive. You might only use about 10% of its real capacity. You might never know what it can do.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We want course participants to be able to take their courses easily.

D2L Brightspace plays nicely with add-ons like Kaltura and H5P
Reviewed on Jan 08, 2025
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
Migrating to Brightspace has been a massive upgrade for our institution's online learning program which has always been heavy on media and interactivity. With Brightspace, we're able to integrate Kaltura for videos and H5P with its vast array of interactive components. D2L has a wonderful support community, an annual conference, in-depth documentation, and a well-organized feature request system.
What do you dislike about the product?
After migrating from a custom-built LMS in which we had direct control of our upgrades, we aren't able to prioritize our institutions needs over D2L's broad customer base. So, feature requests that might be very important to our school might not be a huge priority to many of the other institutions D2L serves.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Brightspace allows us to build, update and deliver a high volume of online courses to our international student population.

Best Support Team Ever
Reviewed on Jan 08, 2025
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
We are relatively new to using D2L Brightspace, but our team has experience with three other LMS platforms. When we made the decision to adopt Brightspace for the Competency-Based Education courses we were developing, we were a little hesitant to start with a new platform. However, our review of the features of competency-based education revealed that D2L has integrated this approach to teaching and learning into its design. Any concerns we had about adopting Brightspace were erased as soon as we began working with our implementation team. The responsiveness of their support team and their engagement with us as we considered features and LTI to integrate now (and those to save for further along in our program development) made often anticipated concerns and quickly alleviated those that were not anticipated.
The certificate training and the online resources make it an easy-to-use platform for our instructors and learners. Our instructors and mentors rely on the reports daily to support our learners. If an institution is considering developing a competency-based program, I fully endorse D2L Brightspace as the LMS of choice.

What do you dislike about the product?
The only element that took a little getting used to would be questions about are you using the new option of x feature or the old option of x feature. Sometimes it is not clear to us as brand new users what is new and what is old. But the resources are all there and the support teams are always kind and patient in responding to our inquiries.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using D2L Brightspace to support our comptency-based courses and programs.

What do you like best about the product?
From an admin point of view, the flexibility in how you can set up the VLE in terms of course organisation and the course layout is very useful. Allowing you to create bespoke brands and layouts for different campuses and or departments.
The platfrom is also very visually appealing and intuitive to learners without being overly clutered.

What do you dislike about the product?
The gradebook can be a little confusing to get used to and a one stop gradebook shop for learners is not available. Currently instructors either have to create a folder with all assessment links or learners have to remember whether the assessment is a quiz, an assignment, or some other 3rd party assessment tool. It would be great to be able to use the learner gradebook view as a place to also take (link to) the assessments as well as view grades and feedback.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
D2L Brightspace helps make learning personalised and engaging and is easy to access from anywhere. Instructors save time with automated tasks like grading, and they get useful insights from the platform’s analytics. It’s flexible and can fit the needs of different organisations. Overall, it creates an efficient learning environment for everyone.
