> **Aristi** | *27 February 2021* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: 1. Easy to use. &#10;2. Good annotation. &#10;3. Creating folders for courses.
> 
> **Cons**: 1. Being able to input emojis or a stamp for assessments. &#10;2. High lighter tool not easy to distinguish from pen. &#10;3. Locking / unlocking feature is not working without manual intervention. &#10;4. A calendar feature for students, parents and teachers so that homework assignments and assessments can easily be identified.

> Instance access to our students and parents.

### "Great software, absolutely love it" — 5.0/5

> **Diana** | *01 March 2021* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I love how easy it is to navigate, grade assignments and communicate to students
> 
> **Cons**: I wish there was a running grade book or a way to upload stuff and it not be called an assignment. Sometimes I upload notes but students look for documents in the all assignments tab and get lost
> 
> Love this software, can’t speak highly enough about it

-----

### "I use this professionally" — 3.0/5

> **Samantha** | *30 May 2018*
> 
> **Pros**: The app is great and very useful for giving and receiving feedback in a classroom or meeting setting.
> 
> **Cons**: The free version is almost useless compared to the paid version but even then it is priced a little to high

-----

### "Flipped classroom must have" — 5.0/5

> **Wanda** | *11 April 2018*
> 
> **Pros**: I was given a trial for a year with showbie by a vendor. Customizes student learning. When I first flipped my classroom, this helped tremendously in the blended learning environment. Students work directly in the mobile app, keeps down on copies. They submit assignments directly to me for a quick turn around and feedback. I can place everything in unit folders for easy access.
> 
> **Cons**: Unfortunately, my trial ended after a year, but I really did not find a negative. Students could email me questions 24/7 but I set a time limit to avoid a conflict with my schedule.

### "As a "customer" I loved it" — 4.0/5

> **Jacqui** | *17 January 2019* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: This was used as the homework submission tool for a training that I did. It was easy to use, easy to follow, the organization was  intuitive, and the ability to get feedback and following comments was easy. The ease of uploading and downloading from at all points was also a huge plus.
> 
> **Cons**: Again using as a student,  the fact that once something was uploaded and that was it, made me really nervous. The "one shot" option was a little stressful. Not being able to delete or edit a submission was hard for me, but this may have been on the Administrators side of things and discretion.
> 
> This is something I would absolutely use if I am hoping to review and provide feedback to several people with different uploading options/preferences.
