It took me an average of thirty-minutes to understand the layout of the system. I enjoy that I can email my instructors from the software instead of opening another tab for the email website. Plus, each course has its own link so the classes are nicely organized. > > **Cons**: I can't think of a single aspect that I don't like about Canvas. My institution used a different platform (forgot the name) but it is MUCH easier to navigate Canvas. The other platform that was used in the past, had too many updates which would lock people out of the system. > > My overall experience with Canvas has been amazing\! I truly don't have any complaints for Canvas. The system automatically grades assignments (unless the instructor changes the settings for manual grading). All my messages to my instructors get sent and I never had an email be sent back through Canvas. ----- ### "Love it\! Will use again" — 4.0/5 > **Samantha** | *9 April 2026* | Accounting Software | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Canvas is intuitive, organized, and makes managing assignments, grades, and communication so simple. > > **Cons**: Canvas can be slow at times, has cluttered menus, and notifications can be overwhelming. I can confused making projects. ----- ### "Canvas - The Versatility LMS" — 5.0/5 > **Anonymous User** | *17 November 2025* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Canvas is an extremely versatile LMS because of its capabilities to host and create different files. What I like most about canvas is the ability to create pages that allowed you to link items from various resources. As long as that link stays stable, the user would be able to open and access that link. I also liked canvases capability to track several things about my users which include log in time, how long they were logged in, and if there were any required items to complete for assignments to complete, it would be able to track their progress and score which was essential for record keeping. > > **Cons**: The main thing that I liked least about canvas was the creation of pages because it did require knowledge of coding in order to make the page appear and look the way you wanted it to. Thankfully I do have experience with coding so I was able to set up the page to look and function as I wanted it to. However, for some of my colleagues, they did have a harder time with that because of their lack of knowledge of coding and they were unable to achieve the kind of look that they wanted to do. > > Overall, within the education field, canvas was a huge improvement from previous albums that I've used. Their versatility, the tracking, and the ability to organize your courses were simplified and very easy to do. It didn't feel clunky, it was very clean, and the user end had a positive experience and as a creator, I also shared that experience as well. ----- ### "Canvas Works Like Magic\!" — 5.0/5 > **Jean-Pierre** | *12 December 2025* | Higher Education Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Canvas is a learning management system that is user-friendly with a graphic interface easy to navigate. It can seamlessly integrate different types of learning and has multiple templates that help new users to design assignments, quizzes, and discussion questions. > > **Cons**: The Canvas gradebook tool can be a bit complex and intimidating for new instructors. The HTML feature of Canvas is not robust enough for the designer who wants tobe more creative. > > Canvas is an excellent Learning management system, user-friendly and Use it heavily in designing courses and integrating different learning tools. Our faculty like it very much. ----- Page: 1 / 174\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.ae/software/91646/canvas-lms?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.ae/software/91646/canvas-lms) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
