Easy to use, but design could be more aesthetic!

What differentiates Sakai from other similar products?
It looks uglier, the format and graphic design of it could use a little update and refresh. I think that looking at anesthetic screen keeps me motivated with the task at hand.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
It is relatively easy to navigate in comparison to other similar products.
What do you dislike most about this product?
The aesthetics. I also wish the email notification system was a bit smoother and more clear. I feel like all the characters and mumbo jumbo of it makes it more difficult and less apparent as to what I have to do.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
If you are very calendar based, and organized, this may not be the most efficient software to use to give you clear dates and reminders
