My Take
I believe that this tool makes it easier to show a visual perspective for mathematical concepts and how different types of equations look on the graph. I liked that it is an easy software to learn and utilize. It is also accessible for anyone to use and does not cost extra money, so students can use it as support when learning and completing classwork.
How I Use It
I use Desmos by inserting an equation that I would like to be graphed. You can add multiple equations to one graph to see the relationship between the equations.

Highly customizable and quick to use
Since this teaching tool is completely online, it's very accessible to students and all setup required is just going to the website. Rather than downloading a calculator so that I can display visuals of certain equations, I can put them up with ease. The tool is fast and streamlined but does take a bit of getting use to, to utilize it at its full potential. However, its still a great tool and worth it to learn as an educator, and to teach to students.

Very Useful
This app is very useful in both graphing information and helping people to visualize equations. Having students play around with this app can be a great way to show how changing certain variables like exponents and constants change the shape of equations. Desmos is great for both teaching about how graphing works, and collecting data to make graphs. There are many useful features, and some features that I haven't found an excuse to used yet (like the ability to transpose an image over the graph. Desmos is an amazing graphing tool.
