Blackboard is a good modern approach to LMS

What do you like best about the product?
I like the simplictic interface. Makes it useable across different device types.
Upgrading from Blackboard Learn Original to Ultra was a seemless transition.
While Blackboard administration is part of my daily responsibilities the ease of administration by integrating it with our SIS has lghten the work load.
What do you dislike about the product?
Support could be a little quicker on returning responding but for the most part I have not had much issues with them.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mostly the SIS integration has helped me out a lot. I used to manually load in CSV files to create courses and enrollments. Now I run automate scripts pulling the information from our SIS. This creates the Terms, Courses, instructor and student enrollments. Its even setup to make changes to student enrollment when students add/drop classes.

The record keeping of students' activities such as tests, assignments, and so on. The data is presented in a convenient way for generating summary reports.

I'm using Blackboard as a Learning Management Systems, which is very beneficial in my role as a professor.

IT provides an easy to use interface for online courses or course repositories.

What do you like best about the product?
Blackboard is easy to use for LMS admins, instructors, and students. Integrating it with an SIS is a way to make it a great way to automate your processes to save you time. Bb recognizes the importance of a community site along with an Idea Exchange to bring forth ideas to improve. They have the right people to help implement your SaaS-based system with best-practice ideas. I have access to great support and a team of success managers to check-in on a regular basis. We have students logging in multiple times per week to stay up with their studies.
What do you dislike about the product?
The few things I have disliked have been addressed from the community and idea exchange to help improve the experience for all users.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Blackboard is always in contact with us to let us know of new improvements and opportunities to use our systems for both for-credit classes and training of instructors.

It is simple to use and easy to navigate. At the same token provides all the tools and features to be effective at learning and also at teaching.

Needed a good LMS to maintain relation based learning. The learn facilitate such learning requirement for us.
