Integrations to our Gradelink system makes it so teachers can grade in Classroom and it auto-transfers to our SIS. Extremely helpful\! The process to return digital submissions can feel a little arduous but once learned is worth the extra step. > > **Cons**: The assignment return process. It seems a bit much but is a necessary step to getting students their files back again. > > Overall, Google classroom has been a very helpful addition to our school tools making submission and grading (even with comments) super easy\! ----- ### "Excellent Teaching and Learning Platform" — 5.0/5 > **Anonymous User** | *19 November 2025* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Google Classroom is an excellent platform for classroom management and student teacher interaction. It integrates with a multitude of educational applications and has an easy to use interface. > > **Cons**: Google Classroom currently has no whiteboard component for presentations or sharing notes. This feature may improve the student experience. ----- ### "Helps with setting and assessing work." — 5.0/5 > **Matthew** | *25 April 2026* | E-Learning | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Ability to set tasks for pupils and view what they have done quickly and easily. Pupils can access and work on tasks without issue. > > **Cons**: Sometimes the way this is accessed through Hwb in Wales is awkward but the software itself is useful. > > A useful addition to support the teacher’s administration and organisation of a class’ work, especially homework. ----- ### "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. ----- ### "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. ----- Page: 1 / 117\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ie/software/186631/google-classroom?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ie/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
