Blackboard Learning Management Scalability

James Phelps - PeerSpot reviewer
Adjunct Professor at Nova Southeastern University

The product is scalable. 

The number of users varies. The campus has 7,000 to 8,000 students plus all of the faculty and staff. That becomes around 10,000 or so.

The tool is scalable. When we used the managed hosting environment, we worked with our providers to give them the best details of how many users we expected for the next academic year. We also gave them ideas of whether we'll have a very high-impact day. They were able to scale it up very quickly.

Scalability in the SaaS environment is a little different since everything is in the cloud. We were worried about how flexible it would be on a day that we had a very large exam, but it performed brilliantly. Overall we had up to 26,000 users.

I haven't experienced any limitations with scale. Our courses are capped at around 24 students. I haven't encountered any issues, and I load large volumes of content into the system every week. I typically teach 16 weeks per semester and dump a lot of content into Blackboard. Blackboard is used extensively throughout the college because the school mandates that each course must have an online presence, and it uses Blackboard for course delivery.

The scalability is unlimited because they have a plan to offer solutions as services and we can create complete platforms or virtual schools to offer them to other clients.
