Easy LMS vs Google Classroom Comparison

No pros were added to this review

No cons were added to this review

It's cost effective and gets the job done.

It's sometimes hard to use and unable to do simple things like include tables in modules. If I want to put a table in a module, I have to make it on a separate platform like Microsoft Word or Google Docs, screenshot it, and then add it to the module. On top of that, the picture tends to upload in lower quality so the picture of the table shows up fairly blurry.

Fast without installing any software. Immediately results in real time. Friendly interface for teachers and students.

Is not a full LMS (Learning Management System) It's just an auxiliary tool for a greater LMS

Google Classroom is free, easy to setup and very intuitive. Its interface is adequate to use even with young children and it's a good solution to give classes via video conference. It let's you upload documents, assign tasks, all in one interface.

You don't have many options like moodle LMS or even some wordpress LMS, which can disappoint some people.

- The software is not very resource intensive in terms of space requirements therefore works smoothly - The Google ecosystem (Docs, sheets etc.) is user friendly and familiar

- The LMS could have been improved but since the software is open it can be used with other LMS.

1. Ease of setup and use; 2. I appreciated the fact that it was integrated with the various google resources (Gmail, Meet, Drive and others).

Lack of integration with other LMS like Moodle.

Because it is made from Google, it works with all Google products! It is easy to set up and deploy a classroom in minutes. It can be used by anyone as a teacher and anyone can sign up as a student which makes this a powerful learning tool.

I would like to see more features likes sorting the gradebook assignments, more customization in the assignments and grading, a separate parent communication tool, and a more robust discussion board.

I like the most is the virtual classroom it is easy to use and helpful in sharing data from person to person easily

Its LMS system is a bit difficult and not so much friendly

The best part of Google Classroom is the integration with all Google Products. Documents are automatically copied to students, with their names on them, which eliminates sharing/cheating and the students damaging the original. The integration with Google Forms for quizzes is invaluable as well. Google Classroom is a wonderful LMS for schools that use Google for Education.

The managing and scheduling of assignments can be tedeous at times. Front-loading work is not a straightforward as it could be. Another feature that would be helpful would be passback to a student management system and grade book. However, Google is very open and receptive to user feedback and has made many updates that address their needs.

I personally like its user friendly interface, and its LMS integration feature.

The thing that i like least about this software is mixup of assignment with other post, I mean like there should be a different folder for assignment so that it make easier for students to differentiate between assignments and others posts.

-Super simple to set up -Huge fan of how it connects to google suite -Amazing that software is free!

- I wish there was a way to give letter grades instead of only numeric marks - I wish I could pin posts on the feed

Very easy product to use for integrations and give to students to help learn. Google really does integrate with almost anything!

Not organized enough for me. I like have folders that can be setup and color coded to match the assignment. It also does not allow for integration from ExamView software.

We realized we need LMS and google being integrared to everything is beneficial.

Still difficult to say but so far all has worked perfectly.

All in one, with all kinds of possibilities for free. It integrates seamlessly with other Google products.

Should have more LMS options. Should include more options for automating management tasks. Does not allow ratings.

It is easy to use and very intuitive. I can share information with students quickly and efficiently. Also, it allows me to communicate with in-person and virtual learners.

Sometimes, a student's assignment is marked "missing" when it has been turned in. That makes grading more confusing for the teacher.

Great for passing updates and conducting assessments. Serves as a good substitute for LMS for small teams.

Nothing at the moment. Wish it was not linked to Google forms at that seems like an overhead at times.

The UI is easy to use, beautiful and modern, not like most university LMS in my place which is old and outdated. Because this is one of the Google apps, it will integrate with other Google apps like Docs, Spreadsheet, Form, etc. It makes documents easier and faster to manage because it's all in the Cloud, so you don't need to switch between your browser and your local drive.

One feature that may be really useful is the private and group chat feature. It's really critical so students can contact teachers easily and with group chat, teachers can also see how their students progress on the group project.

What I like about Google Classroom the most is the ease of submitting assignments. I also like that I can unsubmit my papers whenever I accidentally submit them. Lastly, I like how I can keep track of my course tasks and submit them on time.

What I like least about this software is that I can only archive my classes if my professor archives them. I hope there's an option for us to archive them on our own because my finished classes pile up on my dashboard. I don't want to unenroll myself either.

Google Classroom is easy-to-use. It's well organized and allows to connect other Google platforms as well. It notifies whenever a new assignment has been posted or a deadline is due in a day. It's so quick to use, access, and apply courses, and it's simple for students to build anything from beginning. I adore Google Classroom for its simplicity and strength.

Google Classroom only lacks few features that other LMS have to offer. Submission and turning in of works sometimes confuses the students.

Google Classroom is easy to use and a wonderful platform to organize class materials and curriculum

None as of yet. It is difficult to integrate into our LMS, but that is more of our schools fault than Google Classroom

Google Classroom is extremely easy to use and is perfect fo this digital age. The collaboration with sharing notes and tasks makes it extremely useful for both our teachers and our students.

What I dislike most about Google Classroom is every now and then certain users will have problems accessing the classrooms. Sometimes a reboot will fix it, but other times it is an issue on Google's end and it can take a while to resolve.

It's hard not to like this tool, because it is so reliable and familiar and cheap. It's very easy to get started and it's very easy to add learners.

It's so very simple - it doesn't have many of the features of a sophisticated LMS and this makes it inappropriate for many of our projects.

This software is wonderful for any teacher working in Language Arts or Social Studies. Students are able to see different assignments I have created for them to work on and attach their own google doc and turn it in to me. This not only saves on paper, but it is automatically organized for me, I can just click on a student and see their work, or select an assignment and see who has been working on it, finished, turned it in, has it missing, etc. It also allows me to correct and give feedback to my students from anywhere in the world through an internet connection on a tablet or computer.

Unfortunately the grade function does not link up to my districts LMS. So I have to manually transfer the letter grade over, but this is nothing.

It's got a decent class setup structure. Familiar google interface.

It is hard to armwrestle a software made for schools into a corporate LMS. No features for training matrices, recurring training, etc. Custom assignments across classes.

I created a class in a few hours that can be repeated at any time. I am pleased with how the classes look and the fact that it's free is amazing,

I don't like the mobile app very much. It is difficult sometimes to explain to people that you share a class with.

Sin duda muy contento con Google Classroom, he realizado formaciones muy potentes en de analítica web usando Classroom y la verdad a ido muy bien. Es fácil de usar, todo ordenado, fácil de acceder a los materiales de la lección, etc... y fácil interactuar con los demás miembros y profesores.

Como sistema LMS le faltan funcionalidades interesantes como pasarelas de pago, sistema de goteo, etc... como para plantear usarlo como academia online. Poca personalización a nivel branding.

This is a free program that schools can use to set up an LMS. As a teacher I already store most of my stuff in google docs, which makes it easy to set up a Google classroom.

I am set up in Schoology, so changing over is taking some time. Our school is slowly moving to Google classroom, but I don't think it is as powerful as Schoology.
