"Delivering an appealing virtual notice board for diverse learners to engage with."

4/5

What do you like best about Padlet?

I’ve been using the free version of Padlet for a couple of years now and have always been impressed with the way it delivers a simple virtual notice board for our learners to engage with. However, on this zero cost plan you can only save up to 3 Padlets at a time which was very restrictive, so decided to try out a more comprehensive version. Padlet Briefcase for business offers the same type of interactive notice boards – all of which can be made public, private or used to invite selected individuals to co-collaborate in the learning by adding their own comments, pictures and even documents. We have also used successfully it to pose pre-determined questions on a given subject to build involvement and test learner retention levels. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Padlet?

It can get a little expensive if you are a large company because their pricing strategy is based on a per-user per-month basis, so it would be useful to provide the opportunity to purchase a more cost effective organizational licence. Also the in-built content filtering application can sometimes be a little over vigilant and has been known to remove certain (UK) phrases that are in common usage.

Recommendations to others considering Padlet:

Try out the free version first to find your way around, then (especially if in business), go for the paid for option. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Padlet solving and how is that benefiting you?

In essence, Padlet Briefcase delivers a more robust, enhanced version of the basic service – built around the familiar blank pages ( or ‘walls’) on which you can add anything you like - including video clips and audio files to create a dynamic platform for learners to share ideas and interact. In particular, I love the free-form approach and the flexibility it offers. Feedback from learners suggests that they enjoy using it most to brainstorm and bouncing ideas off each other – rather than just with the person they are sat next to. In particular I like the fact that Padlet Briefcase is designed specifically for the business user. This means you have greater levels of security, can create your own unique domain name, plus you can brand pages using your organizational color scheme and logos for a more professional image and can upload much larger file sizes to your walls. Finally, we use GoogleDocs extensively and Padlet Briefcase works well with the full range of GSuite. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The one and only…Padlet!"

5/5

What do you like best about Padlet?

I am currently in middle school but my journey with padlet goes all the way back to 3rd grade during a really hard time for all of us...the pandemic, but Padlet not only helped us put in our thoughts but also review others. It has many features like attach file,image etc making it one of a kind. And it's accessiblity is

remarkable(app,link,QR,browser et) . Padlet can also be very safe and reliable and you can make your Padlet safe and secure by adding a passcode making it private and limited. Padlet is also very easy to use in large groups like parties, classrooms and so much more! I use padlet at least once everyday and padlet never fails to amaze! We can use it for all subjects it’s as easy as copying a link and sharing making it easy to impliment and integrate with daily life for many purposes! So join me and the over 30 million people who use Padlet to make their lives effective,smart,easy and fun! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Padlet?

I am happy and content with the way Padlet is flourishing and would be happy if the same continued. As a student padlet is used by my many classmates and sometimes the overcrowd does cause lags, we’ve seen the lags reduce and support padlets fast action! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great for Organizing Notes, But Needs Better PowerPoint and PDF Integration"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Padlet?

I use Padlet to create discussion boards and mind maps, which helps me organize my notes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Padlet?

I find it difficult to connect to PowerPoint, and the PDF feature is not very good—the structure is poorly organized. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Visual wonder!"

5/5

What do you like best about Padlet?

Creating data visualization is really easy and efforless. The best part is the different tools that can be integrated into the entries. I think it is a very attractive way to collect data too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Padlet?

I really like the app. However, as I was working on a project I identified some features that might be useful, like multilingual mode, which is useful when users from different cultures participate in the same padlet. I'd love to have a chance to talk to Padlet developers and share some ideas and needs as a user. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"great system for organizing"

5/5

What do you like best about Padlet?

This allows me to save wonderful websites that I know I can use in the future but on my own might forget them.

Padlet also lets me organize those websites, videos and lesson plans so it is easy to find what I am looking for. With each new update in Padlet I find more help in organizing, saving and utilizing my content. Padlet also has great support when and if I am stuck. I probably access my Padlet a few times every week and a lot more often as I build new classes. This program was easy to start and has simply become better with each usage. It ties in seamlessly with my google classroom to improve or adjust my lessons. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Padlet?

I tend to run out of room. I would suggest keeping track of what you are using and what you no longer need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Padlet Review"

5/5

What do you like best about Padlet?

The interface is easy to handle, with clear structure and design selections. I created a timeline for all 2025 movies and series to watch, and it looks amazing. Using AI for some timelines was also very helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Padlet?

Perhaps more variety in fonts would be beneficial. When changing the format in your dashboard, it removes the background. To be able to save the background when you upload an image. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Awesome for Engagement and more!"

5/5

What do you like best about Padlet?

The interphase. I love how easy it is to use it, as a teacher and as a student. Whenever a have a new student trying Padlet for the first time, they get the deal right away. I started using it when it didnt have all of the new AI features, and I loved it already. With all of these new features, implementing lessons and more engaging activities has become easier and easier. It helps me save time... a lot of time! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Padlet?

So far, I love it more and more. Even when using it repeatedly, there hasn't been one activity that looks the same as another one. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Helps me teach high school kids!"

5/5

What do you like best about Padlet?

Padlet has been a go-to for me and my classroom since 2020. It is an easy, engaging, and even fun way to engage in the classroom. I've used it for get-to-know you activities, formative assessments, jigsaw activities, exit tickets, etc. It is a frequent part of my instruction and assessment. I am even more excited to explore all of their template updates and AI functions. Padlet seems to really care about the user experience which I appreciate. Our LMS is Google Classroom, and I have never had any issues with integration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Padlet?

I wish there were short tutorial videos and a "best for" list of activities to help me decide which are the best features to use in my classroom. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Padlet solving and how is that benefiting you?

Padlet allows for me and my students to share information in an engaging and clear way. I find Padlet lets students express themselves in a creative and safe way. Padlet helps me organize ideas and concepts. It's a fun way to check for understanding; as a teacher I get valuable insight and kids have fun contributing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Padlet keeps my classroom memories alive"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Padlet?

I first knew Padlet when a university professor invited me to collaborate with her in a research about the use of Tech and apps in english language teaching. So i have been using padlet in 2018-2019 and been using it for numerous activities. The students were excited to put their work in Padlet. It did not take long to introduce padlet to my students and colleagues, quite easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Padlet?

Some of my colleagues said they can only have 3 posting in padlet and so they have to delete previous work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Sandbox is awesome, and great great tool for classroom tasks."

5/5

What do you like best about Padlet?

It is a great tool to replace Jamboard, and i must say Padlet's support team is really awesome: sandbox is still a new function that needs some fine tuning; whenever i approach support team (Nadiah and Rana) with my questions, they are always there for help. I know there are a lot of AI tools or teaching tools out there, but not many of them can give me prompt replies and always reassure me that they will get the bugs or problems solved/settle. Teachers not only need tools, but also are in need of support, knowing that we are taken care of. I have a lot of experiences of communicating AI companies and tech companies (e.g. Canva, Magic School, Brisk Teaching....) Padlet gives me the most satisfactory feedbacks, which ignites my 'loyalty' (LOL, but i mean it!) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Padlet?

This is a great product and a great company....why would I dislike it? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
