It's a practical, straightforward system that provides a way to deliver courses.

What do you like best?
The ability to integrate so many 3rd party apps pretty easily.
What do you dislike?
Too much real estate taken away from course content with link columns on left and right. Also, the formatting of the front page in page mode is different than when it's seen as the front page. It makes designing creative landing pages for a course frustrating.
Canvas is a simple, yet extremely flexible and effective LMS.

What do you like best?
I love that at the base, it is so simple to use. There aren't an over abundance of options to choose from, which lets you focus on designing learning, instead of instructions on how to use the LMS. And, although it is simple, it allows you to add so many custom options via LTI that you get to choose how embellished the learning environment is. This flexibility makes it a great option for institutions with users at various skill levels.

Easy to use, regularly updated LMS with a lot of support resources.

What do you like best?
Regular updates based on community input. Relatively easy to find support resources. Availability of many LTI plug-ins to extend functionality.
What do you dislike?
Still has room to grow to be a "perfect" LMS. Areas of growth needed include quiz engine and accessibility (which they are actively working on), need for an instructor dashboard since tools instructors use to measure student success can be difficult to find, need for better authoring tools and more ability to add interest to pages without a lot of coding (e.g., accordions, image handling, interactives, etc.) as these functions are very basic in Canvas.
