Independent research methodology

Our researchers use a mix of verified reviews, independent research, and objective methodologies to bring you selection and ranking information you can trust. While we may earn a referral fee when you visit a provider through our links or speak to an advisor, this has no influence on our research or methodology.

Verified user reviews

GetApp maintains a proprietary database of millions of in-depth, verified user reviews across thousands of products in hundreds of software categories. Our data scientists apply advanced modeling techniques to identify key insights about products based on those reviews. We may also share aggregated ratings and select excerpts from those reviews throughout our site.

Our human moderators verify that reviewers are real people and that reviews are authentic. They use leading tech to analyze text quality and to detect plagiarism and generative AI.

Allison D.

Administration and Training

“I particularly like being able to track my progress in a module thanks to the completion bars; it motivates me to keep going.”

Emily E.

Real Estate Development Affordable Housing

“It kept all my course materials, assignments, grades, and announcements in one place, which made it easier for me to stay organized throughout the semester.”

Aja N.

Student

Cons

“The company was very monopolistic and sued just about every competing Learning Management System (LMS) vendor for creating online learning environments as they seemed to think that they invented teaching and learning online.”

Jeffrey A.

Software Developer Senior

“Communication is not as efficient as other programs.”

Chelsea B.

Student

“The main drawback is the occasional upload failure which can either be due to a system failure or an unsupported file.”

Mickey v.

Financial Controller

Cons

“The assignment deadlines notifications are so delayed, most of the time the notification doesnt even come through the app bit through emails. And the Emails arrive after the deadline passes which causes a big issue of missing the deadline.”

Melissa R.

Assistant Warehouse Manager

“Also, when I try to add a file and submit it, a lot of time it takes to many clicks to confirm it , I have already missed some deadlines because I forgot 1 of 5 confirms.”

Alexandre B.

Usuário Aluno

“It took some time to figure out how to set it up on a free hosting platform as an administrator; I had issues with needing more server access than I had for free.”
