Pros

Easy to use, install and vote anonymously on questions during presentations. Makes audience participation fun and interesting with real-time voting statistics during the presentation.
I enjoyed being able to collect responses in real-time with the audience. It was good to better understand the audience.
Product is great, it works well and the customer service is outstanding.

Pros

The user experience is superb, it is really fun and easy to use, plus it works very well in any platform.
Students and teachers love Kahoot. It is a great way to make review or questions interactive and exciting.
Is a great way to help you learn something you need to learn and fun because it plays out in a game also works with your crew you can help them learn and win prizes at the same time.

Cons

What I don't like about this software is its inability to do more complex polling/experimental designs.
The layout is dull and simplistic. It doesn't give you any feedback after completing a poll.
For the participant unfamiliar with Poll Everywhere, it can be a bit confusing to use the system via a cell phone at first.

Cons

My only complaint is that it sometimes glitches and if the kids accidentally presses the wrong answer, there is no way to correct it.
Recently, we were told we could no longer use this software in school because the company refused to sign waivers for our technology department. The staff and students are severely upset by this.
It is also very vulnerable of spam and attacks like spam bots, answer cheats and other things. The security could be better.

Poll Everywhere

An effective poll app for live or virtual meetings that only lacks a better visual interface.

Reviewed 2 years ago

It is very easy to integrate into your presentation arsenal.

Pros

The price is right, the poll features are adequate.

Cons

It lacks the visual and audio enhancements. If they only made it as pretty, fun to watch and hear (music etc) as Kahoot it would be almost perfect.

Poll Everywhere Creates Challenges With Powerpoint

Reviewed 3 years ago

Not great. There are other products that have the same functionality [and more] and don't create mayhem when you open up other software. I ended up purchasing Kahoot! that does a lot more and covers the same functions.

Pros

I love the idea of capturing feedback during webinars to make them more engaging and collect data to use.

Cons

This totally messed up my PowerPoint...every time I opened PPT...it would send an error message, open up a webpage and a send log window. Such a mess. Had to uninstall.

Vendor response

Hi Elizabeth! Thank you for bringing this to our attention and we apologize for any issues this may have caused during your presentation. If you don't mind sharing your email address with <support@polleverywhere.com>, our CEO would like to hear about your experience 1:1 because we consider this an unacceptable situation and would like to learn more about how we can improve. Thank you, The Poll Everywhere Team

Great learner engagement tool

We wanted a solution to offer some polling and games to increase engagement in a few workshops we deliver on a regular basis. I had experienced Kahoot as a learner in various settings, so knew about it. Upon purchasing a subscription I found how many more features it has and options for games!

Pros

Kahoot is super easy to use and has so many different game/poll options to drive engagement during live learning sessions.

Cons

That certain features are paywalled, albeit behind a very reasonably priced paywall!

I have used this to poll a class or to quiz them in a quick and easy way. It's easy to use and fun as well as engaging.

It's fun and easy to use. It engages audiences easily. It has a fun format that is colorful with engaging music.

The software is somewhat limited in what you can do. This is easy to use but the ease of use makes for limited features.

New way to Benchmark

Reviewed 4 years ago

Used this my whole teaching career the last 6 years. It really engages my high schoolers to biology and reviewing hard material.

Pros

I love that the students get engaged by being able to make their own nickname up, so others in the room do not know who they are. It is a great way to poll students.

Cons

The music could be better and the tabs could be more organized. I have to explain a lot to first timers, so they can reuse it later.

It is a great tool to utilize while students are learning about or studying a topic. I have also created my own to quiz students on vocab, new concepts, or even take a poll of how they are feeling or fun facts!

Pros

Kahoot is such a blast, my students don't even realize they are learning! I love that I can make my own Kahoots, or I can search for ones that are already made. There are so many available that I always have options. I love watching the kids get competitive over it, and they are learning and studying while having fun! They beg me for Kahoot daily! Definitely utilize this in your classroom.

Cons

I honestly can't thing of anything negative about this. I think my students would also agree with me!

I love KaHoot. We use it at our Christmas party for Christmas trivia.

Pros

It is so simple that a 3 year old could participate. It's been used in elementary classrooms and adult fun in a bar and everywhere in between.

Cons

Sometimes there is a lag, but not really a KaHoot issue. It's more of a wifi or cell signal issue. Frustrating though!

As a small business owner and senior, I think this is a helpful tool for interactive engagement and learning.

Pros

I use this mainly for creating polls and quizzes when I do marketing presentations. It creates a lot of engagement with the audience which is great! Super easy to use and the games are really fun!

Cons

I have experienced some lag on occasion between the response time of the participants and the poll questions. There is also no way that I have figured out on how to track the data from the games when I use google classrooms.

The interactive lesson for a team and feedback to a leader.

Reviewed 2 years ago

Overall this a great to tool for a team and a leader to learn from the teams input and see what they know and maybe what their struggling with. It's in a game type of way so the team thinks its fun.

Pros

I like how you can mix and match the quiz like a trial mix. The poll don't have to be sored ether so need to mess up the point system. And at the end of the quiz there is a leaderbaord which makes it more interactive. Once the score is reported I am able to see who got what wrong and who pick what as a answer.

Cons

I don't like the music. Seems to be a little clingy. Along with it taking me a while on how to show my team the questions on their device. Default the question is on the leaders screen.

The platform provides real-time feedback and analytics on student performance, which can help teachers identify areas of weakness and tailor their instruction accordingly.Kahoot can be used in a variety of settings, including in-person and virtual classrooms. The platform has features specifically designed for online learning, such as the ability to host virtual review sessions and share quizzes and polls through a variety of platforms.Kahoot is an affordable and user-friendly tool that is accessible to a wide range of users.

Pros

As a student, I have really enjoyed using Kahoot in my classes. It's such a fun and interactive way to review and learn new material. The games make the learning process so much more enjoyable and I find myself paying more attention in class because of it. The platform is also really easy to use and I love being able to see how I stack up against my classmates. One of the things I love about Kahoot...

Cons

While I generally enjoy using Kahoot in class, I find that the games can sometimes be a bit repetitive. It would be nice to have more variety in the types of games available.One issue I've had with Kahoot is that the timer for answering questions can be a bit too short, especially for more complex or open-ended questions. It would be helpful to have the option to adjust the timer length.While I appreciate...

We have found Kahoot! to be very useful in the pandemic as a way to connect with our group in a variety of fun ways. We also look forward to other ways to use it (i.e. staff training) when some of our normal programs are running again. Very versatile program, that is useful for way more than just fun games in a classroom setting!

Pros

We love Kahoot! It's incredibly useful as both a game and a teaching/training tool. We love that it can be used in person, over video calls, and as a self paced quiz. It's super easy to use as both a player and as someone making a Kahoot! There are also so many options for how to use Kahoot, as a fun quiz, as a training tool, as a way to poll the group, etc we have found so many options for it. Well worth it for us and so easy to use.

Cons

Truthfully the only con is that it isn't completely free (though there is a free option), but they have multiple tiers to their pricing that most groups should be able to find a package that fits their needs and their budget. They do also have a non-profit option which we appreciated.

Great way to gamify learning

Reviewed 4 years ago

Overall Kahoot is an effective and easy way to gamify learning. My only want is the ability to customize more of the colors and branding on the platform.

Pros

Kahoot is great for setting up interactive learning exercises. You can either use kahoot for a live trivia challenge, poll, etc at the end of a webinar or in person conference. It also allows for setting up "challenges" that are not live. For example, you can creating quizes for onboarding employees, training, or in my org's current usage - an all org trivia challenge. I love that it automatically calculates leaderboards and gives weight/points for answers AND the time a contestant takes. Also the ability to combine multiple games into one singular leaderboard is very cool too allowing for multi-quiz tournaments and training exercises.

Cons

Honestly the color palette and customization. I'd like if a premium membership allowed you to completely tweak all the branding and colors. The bright primary colors clash pretty bad with my companies colors and it would just look much better if we could completely customize the branding.
