Hi @SJSC_Registrar,
I think you're going to find that a vast majority of schools/institutions conduct course evaluations using systems other than Canvas (though many do integrate with Canvas to provide access and messaging to students and faculty). My institution used Watermark Course Evaluations and Surveys, but I know Blue another such system, alone with CourseEval.
If you really want to use Canvas itself, you could create anonymous surveys using the classic quiz tool, but you'd have to develop processes and procedures to get those quizzes created in each course and somehow collect the results in bulk if you were interested in that. The dedicated course evaluation systems make all of that much easier and are usually worth the extra $ they would cost over trying to get something going at scale in Canvas. If this is just a one-off evaluation for a specific course, that would be pretty easily doable via classic quizzes though.
I hope this info helps a bit!
