Embedded by Leaders, Tailored for Leaders

What do Instructure, Moodle, Jenzabar, and Schoology all have in common?

Answer: They have embedded BigBlueButton into their product and use Blindside Networks to provide hosting world-wide for virtual classes.

This makes BigBlueButton the most widely adopted virtual classroom system by LMS companies for higher education and K12.

“Our holistic approach along with BigBlueButton and Canvas has helped us achieve remarkable results. Students taking GCSE Maths and English online classes delivered using BigBlueButton have achieved a full grade point higher than the equivalent in-person classes. It’s a remarkable example of evidence-based learning in the virtual classroom.”

Director of Digital Education and
Artificial Intelligence at Activate Learning

“Our instructors love BigBlueButton…the support issues are almost non-existent. We are constantly impressed with the level of quality in this open-source project.”
