### "WebAssign makes assignments simple" — 5.0/5

> **Kylie** | *12 April 2022* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I love that this software connects and links right with my canvas grade book. It is very easy to click the link and be taken right to where I am going for the needed assignment. It is easy to leave and come back to my work and progress.
> 
> **Cons**: It can be confusing to see where all the assignments are that are due for each given module. I use the grade book feature to solve this issue and it is a really great work around for me.
