Most universities, including prestigious ones like MIT, have implemented Canvas for their learning management systems. However, the maintenance cost is notably high. One advantage is that Canvas offers mobile compatibility, allowing use on both mobile devices and computers. Nevertheless, the tool is quite expensive, considering the costs associated with support and operational issues. While there isn't a clear market leader with equivalent features, other options like Coursera and edX may be worth considering. These platforms are robust, offer extensive menus, and are often more cost-effective compared to Canvas. I would rate it seven out of 10.

If you're choosing a learning management system, there's only one choice because it is open source. It has all the elements and good infrastructure support. It uses the latest technologies, such as artificial intelligence, augmented systems, real-time assessment, etc. Overall, I rate Canvas LMS a ten out of ten.

When it comes to implementation, someone at the university has already done it. There are also professors who use it, as well as students who use it. But, from what I have seen, it is a good product. I would rate Canvas LMS a nine out of ten.
It functionally works, and it is intuitive and easy to learn, which makes it significantly more advantageous than the Blackboard LMS or Moodle LMS. Canvas is definitely up there at level nine out of ten.

I would rate Canvas LMS a nine out of ten. Before making the shift to Canvas LMS, I would advise institutions to think through how they want to separate the courses that they build out at the beginning. We had to make a few changes later in the game for professional and continuing education that made it a little bit complicated to give them access to other courses that had been taught previously. If certain people will need near-admin rights to a subset, it is important to create a robust sub-account structure that will not give those individuals too much access. I wish that we got a little bit more buy-in from the administration over what sub-accounts they wanted rather than having to go back and do that at a later time.
