Eduflow Reviews

“Great learning tool

Pros

I absolutely loved the peer review feature of this software. Additionally, its user-friendly nature and fast performance were highly appealing to me.

Cons

I'm not certain if Eduflow supports the use of interactive videos. The course I took didn't include any, but I would have liked to see some.

“Eduflow review from Instructional Designer Freelancer

Pros

The interface of Eduflow makes it incredibly easy to use. There's ample customer support available for using the platform.

Cons

I haven't used it long enough to provide feedback.

“Simple setup and integrations

Pros

Eduflow is a very user friendly tool and the platform adapts well to different needs. The integrations are also a strong point, making it convenient to connect with other tools and keep everything working together.

Cons

One concern could be the pricing for smaller institutions and there are still some usability limitations depending on the specific use case mentioned earlier.

“Proven highly helpful

Pros

After finishing an EduFlow course on ADDIE, I can say it really helped connect the theory to actual practice. I already had a basic understanding of ADDIE but I needed clearer guidance on how to apply it in real situations. The course was engaging, easy to follow and interactive throughout. It gave me a useful structure for designing a learning experience for my school and I'd definitely recommend it to others.

Cons

Since I am still new to the software, I haven't come across anything I dislike at this point.

“Give a free training option

Pros

A very capable free tier makes Eduflow a really compelling choice for basic training needs especially if you want something inexpensive without giving up useful functionality.

Cons

Nothing specific comes to mind. The product feels well designed overall.

“outstanding peer review platform

Pros

Since there really isn't a dedicated category for Junior High English, I have been using this as a peer-review writing platform instead and it has been amazing. Even though it's a little pricey, I still haven't come across anything cleaner, more fluid or more responsive. The tech support has also been absolutely incredible, plus huge thanks to Linde for all the help last week!!

Cons

The only real downside is the cost. As a single teacher in a small district, I have to cover it myself out of pocket. At $20 a month, it definitely feels like a stretch for me and if I want to add another teacher, that's another extra $20.

“fun and simple learning flow

Pros

Eduflow is user friendly and simple to navigate. I have been genuinely impressed by how approachable it is and it's actually fun to click around and explore.

Cons

One thing that would make it even better is having a progress bar for each section or at least an estimate of how long that section will take to finish. That would really help with planning daily progress.

“peer learning boosts engagement

Pros

Getting all of my students involved in reviewing one another's work has made a real difference. It adds accountability to what they're doing and has supported stronger thinking skills as well as better social interaction.

Cons

There was definitely a bit of trial and error when I was learning how to use some of the more useful features. I had to start with small-scale rollouts first so I wouldn't end up creating extra work for myself later on.

“Great experience overall

Pros

The latest update to the content creation workflow has made building courses a much better experience overall.

Cons

Even though we've repeatedly stressed how important peer review is, the peer-reviewed activity often gets overlooked. The APIs are still quite limited and there's no Zapier integration which feels odd to our team. On top of that since the report page doesn't let us filter actions by type, we ended up creating an external dashboard ourselves.

“clear course setup flow

Pros

Everything is presented in a clear, step by step way from building a course to inviting participants and tracking each stage of their progress.

Cons

It is accessible enough for anyone to use and I honestly haven't run into any downsides with the platform.

“Easy to use tool!

Pros

The platform is very easy to use and being able to build logic flows is especially helpful for training.

Cons

I don't really have any suggestions for changes at this point.

“simplifies everything for us

Pros

One thing that really helps is being able to check everyone's progress in one view, build the exact questions I want students to respond to and let students swap papers anonymously. That anonymous peer review setup usually leads to more honest and authentic feedback between classmates.

Cons

Every now and then, I wish the peer review editing process felt a little more managed but overall it's still an extremely useful, helpful and user friendly product.

“Anonymous peer feedback shines

Pros

The peer feedback process is the best thing about it. Students can write a script, read each other's work anonymously and then both give and receive feedback which works really well.

Cons

Getting everything set up the first time is a bit confusing. It's not quite as user friendly as it could be.

“course setup that works

Pros

Creating new courses is not a problem whether it's for incoming candidates or current employees joining in.

Cons

It would be better if the platform provided all student data together in the final score or rating.

“Works well!

Pros

One thing that really works well is that students cannot see who the reviewers or reviewees are which makes the process feel much more impartial. It also supports a wide range of submission formats, including files from Google Drive which adds a lot of flexibility.

Cons

The grading summary report can be confusing because it's hard to tell which grade belongs to which assignment. On top of that the assignment titles are shortened so much that the full names are difficult to read.

“Affordable software

Pros

Across different international settings, Eduflow offers a rare mix of accessibility, user-friendliness and features that clearly feel designed around pedagogy rather than business priorities. The emphasis on peer group work and feedback is especially valuable and those tools are just as easy to use. I really have not come across another product that brings together this same combination of features at such a reasonable price.

Cons

There are still a handful of features I'd love to have added, such as group feedback, Padlet integration and more options that support student interaction online. That said, it does seem like these are already being worked on.

“simple setup and helpful support

Pros

The core features doesn't take long at all because the platform is very user friendly and the support team is also really helpful when you need assistance.

Cons

If you're a course creator trying to build your own online academy, there are probably better choices out there. Since it doesn't really let you create polished landing pages for your site or your courses, it's harder to run the platform for that kind of purpose. It works more as a learning management tool only.

“Offers multiple options

Pros

It is very easy to use and there are plenty of activity options that help present content in a clear, accessible way. The latest update to content creation made building courses a much better experience overall.

Cons

One ongoing frustration is that the Peer Review activity gets ignored most of the time, even when we emphasize how important it is. The APIs are still quite basic and there's no direct way to connect to webhooks, although Zapier is available which doesn't really make much sense for our team. On the reporting side, you still cannot filter activities by type, so we ended up building a separate external dashboard just to handle that.

“user-friendly course guidance

Pros

The platform is very user friendly. It walks people through each step clearly and everything is laid out so well that almost all users are able to complete the courses without trouble. One thing that could help even more would be adding a small note in the invitation email explaining that after logging into Eduflow, they still need to click on a course to begin. A few users expected the course to launch automatically after signing in.

Cons

Customization on the design side is fairly limited. Even with the top-tier package, there is not a lot our UX designer can do to shape the course so it fully matches our own branding and style. The available text formatting options are also quite restricted. It would be a big improvement if HTML could be used inside the course but unfortunately that is not supported.

“Free version is amazing

Pros

Using the free version has worked really well for my needs since I mainly rely on it for student peer feedback. It gives students in the classroom and those learning from home the chance to get multiple perspectives on their work, no matter how they are accessing lessons and activities.

Cons

From the teacher side, I was trying to keep the process as simple as possible for students. I ended up having to revise the class flow a few times before it felt clear and logical for them to use.

“Was easy to set up

Pros

Setting up workflows for peer review on research papers is really easy and it also handles a combined peer review and instructor review process very well. The smart allocation feature makes the peer review stage run well and adjusting deadlines for individual students when needed is simple too.

Cons

A thing that would make it better is allowing students to view the rubrics before the submission window opens.

“helpful real-time peer feedback

Pros

One thing that really works well in Eduflow is how students can exchange useful feedback with each other in real time. It makes the whole review process feel more active and immediate.

Cons

The summary feature would be much better if it could be filtered by assignment. By the end of the year, after a lot of assignments have been posted, the data becomes hard to go through and I end up scrolling a lot just to find the information I need.

“Meets every single expectation

Pros

We were looking for a platform that could release content in stages, keep an eye on student submissions and support online peer-to-peer interaction. Eduflow checked every one of those boxes for us.

Cons

One part that felt a little challenging was setting up tests and quizzes.

“curriculum sharing works well

Pros

Building the curriculum is very easy and sharing it with students is really simple too.

Cons

It would be even better with more reporting tools and additional features.

“All features are proven beneficial

Pros

The feature that made the biggest difference for me was the feedback and reflection workflow. Letting students exchange peer feedback through a proper activity that automatically pairs them up really helps them make sense of their learning, while also giving teachers a clear way to evaluate their progress. The newer Quiz feature is also a valuable addition, since it helps teachers keep track of student understanding and step in when there are gaps that need attention.

Cons

Honestly I haven't run into any features that felt overly difficult to use and one of the best parts of it is the instant customer support. Huge shoutout to Linde for being so responsive, helpful and efficient whenever questions come up. I did have one moment where I was struggling to figure out a specific function but through the in-app chat, Linde quickly walked me through it with clear instructions. The support has been incredibly helpful and genuinely excellent.

“Overall it works well

Pros

One thing Eduflow does really well is making peer feedback and assessment simple to put into practice in lots of different ways. We use it for hand-ins and feedback on both social skills and more technical, hard skills and it handles both very well.

Cons

If we had to rely on it as our only LMS, we'd definitely miss having more participant administration features.

“students loved it

Pros

After more than 20 years of teaching, I had never taught online until the COVID emergency hit in March 2020. Once it was obvious that my Fall 2020 first year composition course would be fully online, I started looking for a decent way to run peer reviews. My students had always enjoyed them in person and learned a lot from them but I wasn't sure how to recreate that same honest feedback and exchange of ideas online. A shared document just didn't seem like it would be enough. Luckily, I came across Eduflow at exactly the right time. It was simple to get started, so I was able to build a peer review flow almost immediately. The first one went really well and when I used it again, I improved the process, fixed what hadn't worked the first time and built more detailed feedback opportunities. Before long, my students didn't want to turn in any paper unless it included a peer review flow. In my most recent course reflection, it was overwhelmingly chosen as their favorite activity in the class. They especially appreciated the anonymous setup because it let them give honest feedback without feeling worried about offending anyone. They also liked that I could include prompts and questions to guide and sharpen their responses. The asynchronous format was another big advantage since students could participate on their own schedules. Even though it was separate from our LMS, students seemed to navigate and use the platform without any real trouble.

Cons

The only problems I ran into were handled quickly by the support team.

“Great hub for peer learning

Pros

Switching to Eduflow brought everything we had scattered across Drive, Slack and GitHub into one user friendly platform which made our course delivery feel far less chaotic. On top of that the automated reports are incredibly useful for spotting which students are falling behind and the peer-learning tools have made a real difference in how we teach. They've helped students support and learn from one another instead of depending on us for every correction. Since the kind of work we teach rarely has a simple right-or-wrong answer, peer feedback has become a core part of how we run things now.

Cons

A few very useful features aren't very clear when you first start using the platform but they become clearer over time through regular use or with help from its excellent support team. One thing that could make the experience even better would be webinars led by other educators, showing the different ways they use the platform in practice.

“powerful social learning hub

Pros

Eduflow is very user friendly on both sides of the experience, whether creating content or going through it as a learner. We've connected it with our LMS which makes enrollment and completion tracking feel hassle free. It has also helped us expand our virtual training programs by using peer and instructor reviews along with group discussions and hands-on practice activities. Some of our programs even use it as a complete learner hub for multi-week journeys inside the platform. At this point, it serves as our peer-to-peer social learning space where we can build personalized experiences that encourage real skill application and meaningful practice.

Cons

I noticed that a few bugs and feature requests have come up along the way but the support team has always been very easy to reach, quick to respond and open to feedback through many channels. Overall, the experience has been fantastic.
