The backend of Blackboard is very easy and intuitive to use. The backend is easy to navigate using clearly marked panels and panes.

Blackboard review
What do you like best about the product?
I love how organized it is when it comes to keeping the courses separate and in them, different assignments and lecture material. The organizations you are a part of are also contained in a different section. So it basically makes browsing through your grades or uploading assignments or even studying for exams through lecture notes really easy
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes there are issues in opening the grades or assignment submission sections when you try to open it on Chrome (not on the app)

I have been using this to upload my assignments, access class lectures, make announcements for the class where I am an SI Leader, access all student emails and complete my online training for my job.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Most of college students would be required to use blackboard to keep a track of their academic progress
Easy to use and Coordinate with Students
What do you like best about the product?
I love how user friendly this program is. I used it as a student in high school and as a teacher and it is so simple to navigate. It includes lots of great features like discussion boards, assessments, dropbox, and more. It saves me a lot of hassle as a teacher.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes a few of the features seem a little basic. It would be nice to be able to personalize just a tiny bit
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am much more time efficient and organized through blackboard
Blackboard, easy for students-- hard for some teachers
What do you like best about the product?
Blackboard makes it so grades are visible to all students, and assignments can be submitted. Navigating blackboard for students can be easy, especially with the level of understanding this generation has for technology. The students enjoy the streamline service that blackboard provides, if a campus is fully integrated with blackboard, students have everything they need all in one place. It decreases the hassle of having multiple usernames, passwords and resources to log onto to complete an assignment.
What do you dislike about the product?
For teachers who are not accustomed to software used for learning purposes, blackboard can be confusing. Setting up the quizzes, assignments and uploading data into appropriate folders can be difficult for some.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Blackboard streamlines all teacher data and grades onto one site, instead of expecting students to use multiple different resources to complete their homework/tasks. It increases the rate of homework submission.
