Pros
The gallery module within Kannu is a game-changer for online critiques. It revolutionizes art and design instruction in ways no other Learning Management System does. I particularly admire how effortlessly I can schedule content visibility for students, along with the sleek UI. The focused attention and support I received were remarkable.
Cons
Since we are a smaller company, there is not an abundance of personnel available for support yet. However, I anticipate this issue will improve as our company expands.

Pros
Kannu is an invaluable tool for organizing both digital and physical coursework comprehensively. Its flexibility makes teaching a breeze.
Cons
I believe broadening some calendar and time management systems could enhance the efficiency of editing certain data. For instance, utilizing a CSV for quicker date reorganization could be beneficial.

Pros
I was impressed by how fantastic the site looked and how intuitive it was to use. Minimal guidance was needed to introduce users to the site, as navigation was incredibly straightforward.
Cons
Uploading and processing videos can be quite time-consuming also when setting up repeats of a course, I had to manually adjust the dates for every element and then publish them.

Intuitive and elegant UI that encourage student engagement
Intuitive and elegant UI that encourage student engagement
Pros
The course cards boast a sleek, modern design, making them one of the most aesthetically pleasing course catalogs I have encountered. Building sessions and coursework is easy, and the communication features are top-notch. The integration of individual and group messaging mimics popular social apps, enhancing student engagement.
Cons
I would appreciate a faster server (who doesn't want more speed, right?!). Also, having more detailed analytics on individual student engagement would be fantastic. I am eagerly awaiting the app version of Kannu. Although the mobile version functions almost like an app, having features such as push notifications would be great. Furthermore, having the ability to lock or release individual sessions based on the completion of the previous lesson, rather than just by time or date, would be highly desirable.

Pros
it provided the perfect solution for our university's needs, allowing our in-person students to access course materials and resources conveniently under our organization's brand.
Cons
I do not have any dislikes, but we are keen to use it for student competitions with judging and feedback. Unfortunately, the current setup does not allow us to designate individual judges who can enter grades and feedback for each submission.

Pros
As a versatile and intuitive LMS, Kannu exceeds expectations for digital art courses, offering seamless integration and optimal student outcomes.

I am curious about the cost per user. Initially, it seemed a bit pricey when our institution considered it as a replacement for our current LMS. However, I suspect the many new features developed in Kannu recently contribute to its value.

Pros
Kannu is an invaluable tool for organizing both digital and physical coursework comprehensively. Its flexibility makes teaching a breeze.
Cons
I believe broadening some calendar and time management systems could enhance the efficiency of editing certain data. For instance, utilizing a CSV for quicker date reorganization could be beneficial.

Pros
I was impressed by how fantastic the site looked and how intuitive it was to use. Minimal guidance was needed to introduce users to the site, as navigation was incredibly straightforward.
Cons
Uploading and processing videos can be quite time-consuming also when setting up repeats of a course, I had to manually adjust the dates for every element and then publish them.

Intuitive and elegant UI that encourage student engagement
Intuitive and elegant UI that encourage student engagement
Pros
The course cards boast a sleek, modern design, making them one of the most aesthetically pleasing course catalogs I have encountered. Building sessions and coursework is easy, and the communication features are top-notch. The integration of individual and group messaging mimics popular social apps, enhancing student engagement.
Cons
I would appreciate a faster server (who doesn't want more speed, right?!). Also, having more detailed analytics on individual student engagement would be fantastic. I am eagerly awaiting the app version of Kannu. Although the mobile version functions almost like an app, having features such as push notifications would be great. Furthermore, having the ability to lock or release individual sessions based on the completion of the previous lesson, rather than just by time or date, would be highly desirable.
