By Katie van den Berk

We recently selected the winners of our 3rd annual EesyAwards to celebrate our users that have gone above and beyond with their EesySoft use, especially during a global pandemic! We are extremely thankful for our users and their ongoing support, innovative ideas, and for making great use of the solutions we offer. Here is a breakdown of the 2020 winners and the reasons they won!

Drumroll please...The EesyAward winners for 2020! We hope that their efforts will inspire you to take your LMS usage to the next level too.

 

Best Newcomer: George Brown College

EesyAwards Best Newcomer - Winner 2020

We have had so many customers join us this past year, making this an especially tough category! The winner we selected has been so invested since Day 1, utilizing their support center, messaging options, and data insights. They work on a multi-departmental team to improve both student LMS use and faculty training for online courses, which was critical during COVID-related moves to digital learning. For example, you can see this message below using H5P to link faculty to online learning resources in an eye-catching, engaging way. Congrats George Brown College.

EesyAwards Radical Reccomender - Winner 2020

When our customers recommend us to other institutions, it makes us happy! This award is for those customers that have spread the word about EesySoft. Dr. Karen Acree from San Juan College has been instrumental in sharing San Juan College's experience with EesySoft to prospective customers including Canvas users, fellow New Mexican universities, and other similarly situated community colleges. Our sales and customer success teams are thankful for your collaboration!

Finally, for our Superstar Customer of the year, our award goes to Jolie and Lené from Foothill College!

Foothill takes advantage of EesySoft’s in-line messaging, tool adoption reports, and support center anytime they can in order to support and guide users during the transition to fully online education this year.
