Best of Breed LMS Edited: Nov 18 2021
Summary: Excellent - our school lives, breathes, and eats Edsby every single day. I've looked at most of the other competitors and there's no real comparison.
Positive: The most comprehensive LMS out there.
From daily classroom tasks, to reporting, to board-wide analytics that can drill down to the student level, it does it all!
Very teacher/student - centric (i.e. designed for ease of use by the teacher and student = easy to navigate, very intuitive GUI, very rich environment.)
Probably the most important feature for teachers is that it has the fewest clicks to accomplish a given task... who has time for clicking through layers of panels?
In the back end the administration is equally simple. It will connect to any database (they'll write custom query code if your SIS - like ours - is unique) The ability to push and pull data is critical, does all the usual SSO and interoperability things too.Negative: Because it is such a rich environment there is a need for some basic education/training, especially for parents who tend not to read instructions very well :-) Edsby has a decent support site with videos etc for parents (and other roles) but I think there's a bit of information overload at first?

The support is a bit hit and miss - because of the constant development of the product there is a lot going on, their developers seem overloaded at times.
And, it would be nice if they had an integrated SIS for smaller schools. You do need an external data source to provision the system.
