Previous research on e-learning in underdeveloped countries has seldom taken a comprehensive approach. A literature review of recent published research in the field of e-learning use during the COVID-19 epidemic is also included in this study. Therefore, the aim of this study is to look at the technology acceptance model (TAM) and information systems (IS) performance models to see how system quality (SYQ), service quality (SEQ), and quality of life (QoL) are related, as well as the mediating impact of perceived ease of use (PEU) and perceived usefulness (PU), affect students' behavioral intention to use (BIU), and actual use of an e-learning system (AUE) as sustainability for education during the COVID-19 pandemic. Path analysis and structural equation modeling (SEM) were used to evaluate the research model, using the data from e-learning users obtained through a survey. Participants were e-learning users from two Saudi Arabian public universities. The findings revealed that PU and ease of use were positively correlated and influenced by SYQ, SEQ, and QoL in education, and that PEU and PU were positively influenced by students' BIU and AUE system. In the sense of e-learning in developing countries, previous studies rarely looked at an integrated model. This paper also attempts to provide a recently published study in the area of the use of an e-learning system as sustainability for education during the COVID-19 pandemic. There is a lot of ongoing research.
