Why is Blackboard so popular even though it's absolute garbage?

They advertise to administrators and all the other colleges use it so it’s probably good and we should use it logic. My college is switching from it this semester though.

My school stopped using that back in early 2015 and I thought they were slow on the process. There are places that still bother with the pile of shit?

Blackboard has a lot of features for things like quizzes that made it kind of nice to use.

The people paying for it are not the users that constantly have to fight with it.
Most of my professors just used their own school webpages or emails to post homework/schedules.
I preferred the webpages and emails because they weren't loaded with java bloat.
Blackboard is just a solution looking for a problem that doesn't exist.

It's barebones as fuck but the only problem I really have with it is the menu disappears when scrolling on mobile

The bigger problem IMO is that the people selling it don't have to fight it. A lot of the quirks feel like no one at the company has actually tried to run a class using it.
