Pros

“It allows for quick setup of courses, good tracking of completion, and provides a structured way to ensure compliance across the organization.”
CN

Casper N.

Compliance and AML Officer

“The search functionality for courses could be more powerful, and it’s not always clear how best to group related courses and modules together in a structured way.”
VE

Vivek E.

Quality and Compliance Management

“In an organization with over 300 people leaders, the only option is a custom report and the last thing I need is 300 individual reports for each leader.”
MM

MacKenzie M.

Manager Instructional Design

Pros

“It provides a reliable platform for managing courses, tracking assignments, collaborating with classmates, and monitoring academic progress.”
SM

Sahil M.

Student

“In addition, the integration of discussion boards, quizzes, and learning resources created a smooth and convenient learning experience that supported both in-person and online coursework effectively.”
AC

Anish C.

Student

“Student Course Management is one of the most useful parts of Canvas because it helps me keep track of assignments, deadlines, grades, and course materials across my classes.”

Graduate Student

Cons

“What I like least is the inability to speak to a customer support when you're on a lower tier payment, because that is when it is needed the most when people are just setting up for the first time which is when it is needed the most or provide onboarding support”
AO

Alison O.

Owner

“Also, their built-in (and expensive per-user cost) training library is full of cartoonish videos that are not well-suited for my clients and leaders.”
JB

Jeremy B.

Learning and Development Manager

“I think the notification delay of about 2 hours when I enroll someone in a course is also a bit odd, why not make it instant?”
PF

Patrick F.

HR Business Partner

Cons

“The main Bugs and Issues I have experienced are occasional pages not loading correctly, minor interface issues, or notifications becoming overwhelming when I have several courses active at the same time.”
Verified reviewer profile picture

Nikitha Y.

Graduate Student

“No customizability, the modules do not save your place or mark when you've already reviewed information, cannot remove old/unused classes, no customer support, highly complicated for professors.”
JB

Julia B.

Student

“Sometimes it can be difficult to find certain assignments or course materials depending on how the instructor organizes the class.”
