Socrative Review **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Bill A. | Teacher, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 19, 2021 **What do you like best about Socrative?** I like to use mine for quizzes or tests. I have also used it for gaming such as Space Race. The program is nice for me to go back and see a record of student progress. I really like the ability to create a teacher pace quiz/test. I use this for a pretest and posttest format before and after I have taught a specific unit. Students get to see the results instantly and I can control the pace of the test. **What do you dislike about Socrative?** When I choose "Short Answer to a multi-part question, I wish I could create multiple written boxes that could be used in creating a question that has a Part A, a Part B, etc. I wish there could be a "Matching" choice when creating a quiz. **What problems is Socrative solving and how is that benefiting you?** I use it to create an online test/quiz format for multiple classes and subjects that I teach. The benefits show up when I can change the quiz/test throughout the year based on changes in required knowledge from the state of Ohio. ### 2. A VERY USEFUL SERVICE **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Katia Lizeth S. | General Doctor, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 15, 2022 **What do you like best about Socrative?** I think that the ability to put time into each question and have a little review at the end of the question is excellent. Also that you get your answer revised almost immediately is great. **What do you dislike about Socrative?** That the questions don't have a timer or that there is no timer overall, it closes when the time is up with no warning whatsoever, which can be very stressful and disappointing. **What problems is Socrative solving and how is that benefiting you?** It is an incredible way to elaborate quick test to apply during class, it is entretaining and engaging for the audiences. Helps grade and evaluate the knowledge of students ### 3. Excellent Formative assessment app! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** John F. | High School Spanish Teacher, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 17, 2021 **What do you like best about Socrative?** The ability to use Socrative for an in class Formative assessment tool, using it for homework assignments, or using it for a test. **What do you dislike about Socrative?** I can't think of one thing I dislike. Sometimes it is difficult for me to find quiz results from a week ago, but that is more of an organizational problem for me than a problem with Socrative! **What problems is Socrative solving and how is that benefiting you?** Again, it is a great Formative assessment tool. I recently upgraded and love the option of having multiple rooms open at the same time. I did not realize how much I would like it and have been using it ### 4. A very easy and free tool **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Nathalie B. | Teacher and responsible EdTech, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 01, 2018 **What do you like best about Socrative?** The children can log in very easily and that code can not only be choses by the teacher but it also always stays the same. I also like the space race. There are enough options for creating questions and you can add pictures to questions. Creating a quiz is very quick and easy. I also like to use socrative for exit tickets. I can work with it from the iOS app or on the website. I also like the data that is generated at the end. **What do you dislike about Socrative?** There is nothing to dislike. Everything always works. We have perfect integration with Showbie. All our teachers have an account, and they hardly need the training to work with Socrative. **Recommendations to others considering Socrative:** Every teacher with mobile devices in the classroom should use Socrative. It is ideal for revision, checking students' understanding, exit tickets, blended learning, etc. You can easily download the results: per student and per question. Students as small as 4 years old can use it. **What problems is Socrative solving and how is that benefiting you?** We use Socrative for several tasks: exit tickets / quick quiz with downloadable results / Blended Learning Doing these on paper is time-consuming. That is why we love Socrative. ### 5. Great online tool for quick formative checks **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Christy J. | Teacher, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 15, 2021 **What do you like best about Socrative?** Easily administered. Saves all my quizzes, et. for me **What do you dislike about Socrative?** I need to maintain a Pro account in order to have additional rooms. This is money that I have to spend out of my own pocket to have a useful tool for my students. **What problems is Socrative solving and how is that benefiting you?** Can have differentiated quizzes for students. Can scramble questions so there is less chance of students sharing answers. **Official Response from Dan Rose:** > Hi Christy! Thanks for your very positive review!

Must have educational tool **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** /상경대학 H. | Assistant professor/EFL instructor, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 20, 2021 **What do you like best about Socrative?** Love the ability to monitor student progress The pro account is worth it for the multiple rooms Great for both online and in person classes **What do you dislike about Socrative?** I'd like a greater variety of question types available. Compared to google forms and other tools, it's pretty restricted. Sending results by email -file size is large, the emails don't get through. I'd like an integrated grade book, that tracks students grades across all assignments and rooms. It's tiresome to have to download and enter grades for assignments one by one. **Recommendations to others considering Socrative:** GIve it a go! **What problems is Socrative solving and how is that benefiting you?** Giving feedback in a class context. Able to see which questions caused difficulties. ### 7. The Amazingness that is Socrative **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Jami S. | High School Theatre Arts teacher, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 29, 2021 **What do you like best about Socrative?** Ease in creating, testing, recording grades. Socrative does all of the data disaggregation for you. **What do you dislike about Socrative?** Nothing. The only thing that would make this 100% perfect is if Socrative added the ability for the user to select for the questions to be read aloud for students who have accommodations. That would be so incredibly incredibly time-saving and benefical, as I currently have to create separate tests for those students. **What problems is Socrative solving and how is that benefiting you?** Data disaggregation, ease and efficiency, record keeping, visuals with testing, ease in combining tests, **Official Response from Dan Rose:** > Hi there, Jami! Thanks for the glowing review. It sounds like you're really putting Socrative to work in your class. Thanks for the feedback on ways we can make Socrative more accessible and inclusive for learners of all abilities, and efficient for teachers. I'll pass this insight to our Product team! ### 8.

I love Socrative. **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Primary/Secondary Education | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 22, 2021 **What do you like best about Socrative?** It can scramble the questions and answers, and it grades the test.

Easy to use for instructor and students **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Michael K. | professor, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 22, 2021 **What do you like best about Socrative?** Socrative is a great tool for in-class low-stakes formative assessment. It allows for the students to gauge their understanding and the instructor to gauge how the class is doing over all. Do they get it and can move on or do we need to re-cover some things? It is very easy to use and can be moved into and out of multiple times during the class time without disruption. **What do you dislike about Socrative?** On the administrative side, the only problem I have is that the scores cannot be bulk downloaded. You have to download each quiz separately. If you have multiple small quizzes per day then it can take a *long* time to download all of the grades into your grade book. Why is there no option to download grades from multiple quizzes at once? I'd give a 10/10 if this were resolved. **Recommendations to others considering Socrative:** set up the quizzes ahead of time. **What problems is Socrative solving and how is that benefiting you?** The biggest problem this solves is getting timely feedback to me and the students on their understanding. ## Socrative Discussions - [Is there a possibility of self-assessment?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/30840-is-there-a-possibility-of-self-assessment) - 1 comment, 1 upvote - [View Socrative pricing details and edition comparison](https://www.g2.com/products/socrative/reviews/socrative-review-4656153?section=pricing&secure%5Bexpires_at%5D=2026-07-11+10%3A29%3A06+-0500&secure%5Bsession_id%5D=cce14c8a-a719-4411-ae37-fe5bab646b5e&secure%5Btoken%5D=c10d2466a89d730b18c5d78ca8ed2b1559faf46bf2a0f9601f13c5ccb875b14b&format=llm_user) ## Socrative Features **Assessment delivery** - Question variety - Real-time assessment **Grading and reporting** - Automated grading - Gamification - Analytics dashboard - Reporting **Administration** - Mobile compatibility **Platform Features** - Remote Computer Monitoring - Interactive Quizzes - Student Assignment Distribution - Student Assignment Collection - Progress Reporting - Shared Content Libraries ## Top Socrative Alternatives - [Nearpod](https://www.g2.com/products/nearpod/reviews) - 4.6/5.0 (118 reviews) - [Kahoot!](https://www.g2.com/products/kahoot/reviews) - 4.6/5.0 (398 reviews) - [ClassDojo](https://www.g2.com/products/classdojo/reviews) - 4.5/5.0 (354 reviews)
