Kahoot!

Pros

It helps my children learn in a fun way.

Cons

There is nothing that i dislike about kahoot.

Pros

One of the few things that the students really enjoy and for that reason I am drawn to it. That said, I have found it very easy to use and setup.

Cons

It takes time to customise and setup the quizzes and while it has a question bank, it is always better to set up your own questions and this takes time.

Reasons for Switching to Kahoot!

Pros

Kahoot is really interesting play and learn at the same time. It's super easy to use and very helpful. The fact that students can relax a minute during the lesson while answering the question makes it lovely and funny interface.

Cons

A very unique and interactive software, it has never disappointed us.

Pros

Kahoot! does an excellent job of making assessment and learning exciting and fun. Simply by adding a few small features (and competition!), participants become engaged in and excited by the content. The existing library of pre-made games makes getting started a breeze; just with a quick search, users can find games that align with desired content and a game can be initiated quickly. If a user desires, Kahoot! can quickly create an account, find games, and get things started for their participants.

Cons

Kahoot! is very limited if the premium account is not quickly purchased. If a user is willing to upgrade, Kahoot! becomes infinitely more versatile and usable. Obviously the company is looking to make a profit, but there isn't much in the way of the slow build up to the desire to upgrade. It's very "all-or-nothing" feeling.

Pros

Fun for everyone and a great way to gauge interest and knowledge.

Cons

There are a lot of haptics that could easily distract users but overall the best for entertainment to break up the work day.

Pros

the visual very interactive. can be use for Quiz games, or testing the learning platform. some feature built with AI.

Cons

the subsciption price it to expensive compare the others

Reasons for Switching to Kahoot!

Pros

Kahoot has made a comeback with the students. After the wave of other platforms, it appears that students really want to come back to the comfort of their first favourite challenges. It is easy to create your own content, as well as save and modify pre-existing Kahoots.

Cons

The new paywalls have made it difficult to access content if you are not a paying subscriber. Whilst I can understand monetising content to support individual creators, it has made me less inclined to use the platform as it severely limits the amount of Kahoots you can access.

Pros

I like using Kahoot to assess my students' learning in a fun, engaging format.

Cons

Sometimes it takes a long time to load. I just need to load it in advance.

Pros

Kahoot is a fun interactive site that allows for a big group of people to take part in a fun experience.

Cons

If you get the answers wrong, you can’t go back and change it.

Pros

I love that Kahoot had customizable Quiz options So I could create content based on the curriculum.

I thought some of the pre done quizzes were a little bit redundant

I love that Kahoot allows you to interact with different test models in real time. From any device, for group work in business, university or with family and friends. Its interface is easy to use, it is fast, beautiful, and with very good tools to work or generate didactic activities of great value.

Kahoot! is my number one ice breaking method in trainings, Trainees compete and laugh together and enjoy the adorbale questions game which makes them more comfortable with each others and ready to collaborate more together.

Nothing, I enjoy it a lot and I always play it with my friends and co-workers on our free time.

Pros

The interactive options available and the friendly and easy to use system work brilliantly. The system uses bright colour scheme and happy times to keep the users engaged.

Cons

There really is many negatives at all with the system. The system may occasionally take a while to load but that's a small price to pay for the intuitive design.

Pros

Kahoot is just the best for classes and young students. We used it a lot in high school while learning subjects like french and science. It makes learning fun and competing with your class is really fun. Lots of my friends have also used it in university for knowledge assessment

Cons

The students are allowed to select their own nickname when playing, that creates confusion.

Pros

Kahoot is a very fun game to play with friends.

Pros

Kahoot makes it easy to design Q&A style quizzes for easy learning for the audience. It helps to customize the questions and answers. Easy to use and prepare a quiz.

Pros

I like the most the engaging type of learning: Kahoot! uses gamification techniques to make learning interactive and fun. This can be particularly beneficial for students who struggle with traditional methods of learning.

Cons

I did not like the Potential for Inaccurate Information: Since users can create quizzes on Kahoot!, there's a risk of encountering inaccurate or misleading information. Teachers or facilitators need to be aware of this and ensure the quality of the content.

Pros

It's been a great product to use for meetings. We are able to break into teams and have large group competitive activities thanks to Kahoot!

Sometime I wish you could have more teams play at a time, but we make it work!

Cons

Nothing negative to say, its all been a very positive experience to date

Kahoot has been an absolute game-changer for me in my sales role! Its dynamic platform not only engages my clients but also makes presentations interactive and memorable. With Kahoot's extensive range of customizable quizzes and surveys, I can tailor my pitches to suit each client's needs effortlessly. The multiplayer feature adds an element of fun and competitiveness to meetings, keeping clients actively involved throughout. Furthermore, the real-time feedback feature allows me to adapt my strategies on the spot, ensuring that I address any concerns or questions immediately. In short, Kahoot has revolutionized the way I engage with clients, making every interaction impactful and effective.

Cons

While Kahoot is an incredible tool overall, if I had to pinpoint a dislike, it would be the occasional technical glitches during high-traffic times. These hiccups can disrupt the flow of presentations or meetings, causing frustration for both myself and my clients. Though these instances are rare, they can still be inconvenient, especially when trying to make a strong impression. However, I've found that Kahoot's customer support team is responsive and works diligently to resolve any issues promptly. Despite this minor drawback, the benefits of Kahoot far outweigh this occasional inconvenience, and I continue to rely on it for engaging and impactful sales interactions.

Kahoot's most powerful features are interactive quizzes, gamification, and connection with other programs such as Google Classroom. Kahoot's integration with our educational business is incredible. Students are kept interested by the programme, which includes discussion and collaboration, discussion and analytics, and self-paced learning.

Cons

Kahoot is fantastic, however several characteristics, such as internet reliance, an overemphasis on speed, and inclusion difficulties, may be improved. During LIVE activity, the platform might be rather difficult for new users. Integration into the business was beneficial to the students, but teachers found it difficult due to the time-consuming necessity of customizing quizzes.

Pros

As a teacher, I liked the variety of activities you can create for the students.

That it took to long to learn how to use it in the classroom.

Pros

Great interactive tool at have at your disposal for creating an engaging learning environment

Cons

My main issue with Kahoot is that there seems to be a lack of moderation over user-submitted content. Often when searching for a Kahoot on a specific topics, for example, grammar, I would see options that had incorrect/incomplete information, or just weren't of a high enough standard that I would be happy to use in my classroom (typos, spelling errors, etc). For this reason, I had to spend a lot of time reviewing all of the content in detail before I was satisfied it was usable.
