I have enjoyed using Edsby. It is really easy to organize my course materials, track student progress and keep myself organized. Since it is cloud based it keeps everything in one place for grades, assignments, and most communications.

Reviewer Insights for: Edsby
Performance of Edsby Across Market Features

Edsby Likes & Dislikes

Like

Ease of use for posting to classes and communicating to the student body as a whole. Seeing due dates and have students see feedback quickly. It helps me see the progress of course content completed.

Like

Having students Marks. Classes and Attendance all in one app

Like

I like that everything is in one spot and I don't have to access several different sites. I also appreciate that it is user-friendly and easy to learn. Finally, I appreciate the additional data analysis I can do on student progress.

Dislike

Edsby can be tricky to sort through to find past conversations and searching for things can be frustrating as you can only go back so far in the history. Groups feel cluttered and offer no easy way to add or subtract them. Some features don't feel current. A good example of this is the messaging system. One that is more like an instant messenger would be ideal.

Dislike

Help is often slow and you can't customize to your needs

Dislike

There are parts of using Edsby as a teacher that are still bulky or frustrating, such as the weightings in the gradebook.
