User Testimonials
	Kahoot!	Powtoon
Likelihood to Recommend	Kahoot is excellent for more mature students, I would say students in 3rd grade and above. It's excellent if you want to create a fun and engaging way to test or quiz students, or even just to review content information. I really appreciate that there are thousands of already made lessons, so I almost never have to make my own! I get to simply search, make sure it's appropriate for what I'm looking for, and use it (yay no prep!). Incentivized Rachel Piper Middle School Humanities Teacher Read full review	Powtoon is a very capable suite of tools that help a developer create training videos that look way better than they should. I've used it to create fun, attention-getting commercials for new topics, I've used it to enhance what would otherwise be boring step-by-step tutorials, and I've used it to create all manner of "Explainer videos" for all kinds of topics - this is where it EXCELS! In my opinion, its biggest limitations are limits on imported video (max of 90 seconds), which mean that you have to do a lot of extra work to break up and import anything of substantive length. And because it presents your personal library of imported images and audio ONLY sequentially, it's VERY LIMITED in the re-usability of those assets - it's way faster to just import a new instance of an image and audio than to try to find it in your library. Incentivized GN Gabe Nance eLearning Curriculum Developer Read full review
Pros	Useful for either, in-person or online classes: it can work from a projector or screen in in-person classes, or by sharing the screen in online classes. Excellent to get an idea of the understanding or knowledge level of a group of people: depending on the intention of the game, the professor or person in charge of it can make and change the questions to address certain points. Easy to use for both professors and students: Kahoot is intuitive, simple, and fun to use. Interactive and engaging: Kahoot is a game designed to work as a tool for professors, which makes it perfect to use with students. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Powtoon is very easy to use; no previous experience is needed. It has a lot of features (images, backgrounds, videos, sounds, etc.) It automatically saves your work After you have created your video, you can download it to your computer in different resolutions Incentivized JD Jose de la Fuente Project Manager Read full review
Cons	They can add more ways to perform quizzes. The site is not very simple to find your way through. It is uploaded with so much data; therefore it would be good if they can organize it a little bit. It would be good to give free templates to free users to attract them. Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Only one timeline to edit from which sometimes makes it difficult to select objects. Animations can only be set to ½ seconds. Sometimes more precise amounts of time are needed. Although there are a bunch of different actions you can place on a character, it's almost impossible to create a custom action within the program. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Usability	The site's currently layout feels busy. If you are not a seasoned Kahoot user, it is easy to be distracted and overwhelmed by the information presented. I would not recommend this site to a novice computer user. If the user is tech-savvy and willing to navigate the help topics provided by the site, lessons and games can be created more easily with time and practice. Incentivized CM Carly McPartland 1st Grade Teacher Read full review	No answers on this topic
Support Rating	The information that Kahoot shares on its blog and support center is updated frequently and provides many ideas for ways to use the platform. I have personally received timely support from Kahoot for any issues I have encountered. Their dedication to their users is amazing. The company is incredibly receptive to suggestions or ideas from their community. Incentivized Gina Ruffcorn 5th grade teacher Read full review	I have never needed the support feature. As I mentioned, everything was intuitive to me however I have taught myself Adobe, Final Cut and iMovie so most of these programs became intuitive.

Return on Investment	We use the free version so there is definitely ROI for us. It provides easy access to a quiz feature without having to use complicated software. So many people are using it now that some students seem to be getting a little "over it." Incentivized Stacey Stearns Program Specialist Read full review	People love our "tips, tricks and troubleshooting" videos I have created which has helped our learners with their training Our learners have been able to self train using videos I have created with Powtoon It has decreased time and efficiency for our in person trainers and now they can refer them to our online training.
