Its easy for students and teachers to navigate and use the platform ----- ### "A useful tool for creating classes" — 5.0/5 > **Frankie** | *30 August 2025* | Computer & Network Security | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Google Classroom has been useful to my online studies.The features are great for independent studies. From the student teacher interaction, user interface and access to classroom files all make the app great and easy to use\! Google's customer service is always a pleasure to deal with and I have never had a problem with them. In the edn, all I've said added up to great app for independent study groups, classes and church study groups. > > **Cons**: I think the only con I've encountered is a lag when trying upload alot of materials at one time, but that is more than likely an issue that can be resolved by just doing the uploads in smaller chunks and not a massive data drop. > > Overall, Google Classroom is a great app for people who want creat their own courses and share knowledge with a group. Churches on a budget trying to add a mobile study component should definitely consider using this tool\! ----- ### "A Practical LMS that Gets the Job Done" — 4.0/5 > **Tersen** | *27 February 2026* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: The interface is clean and intuitive. Teachers can set up classes, post assignments, and organize materials quickly without a steep learning curve. Our school already utilizes Google Drive, Docs, etc. so it is a natural fit. You also cannot beat the price (free), which gives it a leg up on competitors. > > **Cons**: Its simplicity is also its biggest weakness. It is lacking in advanced functionality such as possessing a less robust gradebook and limited customization. > > Classroom is a streamlined platform that is ideal for schools looking for a free, easy to use LMS that is tied into Google's ecosystem. It is particularly strong for straightforward assignment management and basic student-teacher communication. However, if your needs include advanced analytics, rich built in interaction tools, or highly customizable workflows, Classroom may feel a bit limited. ----- ### "Great in theory, awful for actual classroom use." — 2.0/5 > **Meg** | *20 December 2024* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 2.0/10 > > **Pros**: I love how easily I can link it to Google Docs and how I can store feedback comments. > > **Cons**: The ways in which to organize content is greatly lacking. The gradebook glitches and there are minimal ways to grade/label content that has been submitted. > > Awful. Parents can't see grades. Students get confused about where to find content. It doesn't automatically make a copy of docs for students. ----- ### "Excellent helper" — 5.0/5 > **Navneet** | *2 January 2026* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like that it is very easy to use. I can find all my classes and their study materials all in here at one place. It is also a great tool to interact with my teachers. I never had any technical errors or issues while using google classroom. The customer support is available 7 days a week. It is great value of money spent on the studies. I can also connect with my classmates and other users easily. > > **Cons**: I do not like that this app only works for few months. When all the courses end, the study materials gets removed. I should have access to that all the time. > > My experience with google classroom was very good. I used it on my laptop as well as on my phone. It was very useful for me as I was able to access my courses anywhere and at any time. ----- Page: 1 / 117\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.com.au/software/186631/google-classroom?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.com.au/software/186631/google-classroom) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | | ko | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
