Online worked for me because I had a job and family. The hardest part was discipline. Nobody reminded me to study. If you are self-motivated, it can be a great option. If you need campus structure, it may be tough.
Are online degrees respected by employers now?

I work part-time and an online degree would be easier, but I’m worried employers still prefer traditional campus degrees. Has that changed?

Answers & Discussion
I rarely care whether classes were online. I care whether the degree is legitimate and whether the candidate can do the work. For some fields, labs, clinical placements or networking may be harder online, so check the specific program.
Online degrees are more accepted now, especially from accredited public or well-known universities. Employers care less about the format if the school is credible and you can show skills. Be careful with expensive for-profit programs that promise too much.
