Blackboard Learn and Ultra
What do you like best about the product?
As a previous student I found it easy to navigate Blackboard Learn, and as an instructor I was able to get acquainted fairly easy. With that being said, I like Blackboard Ultra much better despite a shaky transition. I think that Ultra has a more modern feel and is more adaptable to mobile devices. Initially I missed some of the features that learn had available such as individual feedback for each question, but now those have been implemented into Ultra which is great. I am so excited for Content Design and the AI Assistant. Learn had way fewer bug errors then Ultra.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is clunky in comparison to Ultra. I also dislike the way the links displayed.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I appreciate that they consider the amount of time it takes an instructor to complete a task; it is great that they are working to reduce the amount of time to create.

Blackboard review
What do you like best about the product?
Ultra has a very clean fresh look that students appreicate. Feedback is that is is easier to follow and they really find the progress tracking helpful. The fact that the content can only be in one place makes it less confusing to the students. Once you have moved to Blackboard Ultra you will never want to go back. I do feel it is the best LMS on the market and only continues to make improvements.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would say the biggest issue right now for instructors is the grading time. If that could be improved it would be wonderful. Also the students have a hard time "seeing" the feedback I leave as it is several clicks in.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
They continue to make improvements monthly and are making wonderful additions for accessibility and design. It gets easier and better everyday and I can't wait to use the new features this year.

Anthology Blackboard Leads the Way
What do you like best about the product?
Anthology Blackboard is leading the way to an AI-empowered future in higher ed that is founded on their Trustworthy AI approach and the AI Policy Framework. Blackboard (in partnership with Microsoft) provides powerful AI assistance for course design, rubric, test, and content development--even innovative AI conversations for learning--but it insists on human control of AI every step of the way and safeguards individual, personally created content from being used without consent.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are always things that could be impmroved with any product--from refinements (like better drag-and-drop) to major overhauls (like huge improvements to Ultra docs), and I would like to see some of those improved sooner rather than later. However, the Anthology Blackboard Idea Exchange offers clients the opportunity to suggest improvements and enter ito dialogue with designers and product managers while other Blackboard users discuss and vote on the suggestions--and humdreds of those ideas have been implemented in Blackboard already. Amazing!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Blackboard provides a powerful yet easy-to-learn platform for faculty to ccreate and deliver engaging learning experiences, and for students to engage in those experiences and demonstrate their learning.

The only downside is we haven't moved tto Ultra yet and I know that not all of our faculty and not going to like the idea of change.

Ultimately, the move to Ultra is going to help our faculty maintain ADA compliance even more than Ally currently does.
