The results showed that there were many benefits when the program was utilized in the course because the students viewed that the students enjoyed themselves when using this program and they can learn vocabulary effectively through this program (4.57); they can learn vocabulary both inside and outside the classroom (4.55); they can learn vocabulary as many  times as they can (4.54); they can test their vocabulary knowledge, check their answers, and get the real-time feedback; they can learn vocabulary from many features provided in the program, so they are not bored; and they can memorize vocabulary from the program better than those they have written in their notebooks (4.52); and with the program, they can engage in their learning more (4.51). The results of the study can be used in the course design when choosing the online tools to support the students’ learning, especially vocabulary learning.
