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.

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

It has helped me save time. In the world of education, planning engaging classes has always being time consuming, and although there are many tools out there now that are helping with this, for me Padlet is a favorite. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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.

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.

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

I need collaborative platforms that enable my students to see and give appreciation to other students' work, and padlet gives me solution to that problem. Easy to access everytime I need to go back to previous learning products. And most importantly, it's paperless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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.

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

Collaboration in class. Jamboard is going to be a history, and Padlet's sandbox is obviously a good replacement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Padlet?

Padlet is a fantastic platform for teachers where everything can be found in one place: from lessons to collaborative work, and even digital portfolios. Using Padlet and the new Sandbox platform is very easy, and it's also possible to import files from Jamboards or Flip in just seconds. The integration is very easy. In just 30 minutes, I learned how to navigate the new Sandbox platform, and I am thrilled with its functionality. It's ideal for primary level classrooms, where it’s usually very difficult to find platforms that meet the needs of younger learners. I highly recommend Padlet to all educators. I use it every day because of the ease of implementation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Padlet?

My challenge with Padlet right now is getting to know all the little features of the new Sandbox platform, as tutorials are still limited due to the application's recent release. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I am a teacher and the new Sandbox platform is a life saver after the closing of the Google Jamboard platform. I also appreciate the fact that I can manage all my web content easily in one place. It's a one stop platform! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Padlet?

What I like most about padlet is that I get to cat wit my friends easily without using any app like WhatsApp or Discord. It is also fun because everyone can customize teir padlets and publications as tey want, adding one of te many tings you can put on your publication. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Padlet?

The only thing I wish could change is the amount of padlets you can make without paying anything. As a student, I don't have any money to pay it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Making talking to my friends easier, being able to share the homework if we don’t have it and help each other with schoolwork. This helps by upgrading our grades. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Padlet?

I work at at online school! Padlet has been an invaluable resource for us. We use it to collect pictures and videos from our students. We also use it for our staff to brainstorm ideas and share resources. There is nothing out there like Padlet. We would be lost without it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Padlet?

I know I sound like a paid shill for Padlet (I'm not!) but I honestly have not come across anything that I don't like. In a world of frustrating tech, Padlet just works! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

The students at our school do not have access to email accounts or something like Google Drive. Collecting videos and pictures from them would be a nightmare without Padlet. In fact I don't even know how we would accomplish it! We are able to send out a link to our students and they can contribute without needing to sign in. It's fantastic!

What do you like best about Padlet?

Our team uses Padlet in every Zoom meeting, and it has become an essential tool for collaboration. Even though we’re spread out across Texas, Padlet provides a shared, interactive space where everyone can add ideas and review key information together in real time. Its simplicity and flexibility make it perfect for brainstorming, organizing notes, and keeping everyone engaged. Using Padlet allows us to work effectively as a team, staying connected despite the distance. For any group meeting remotely, Padlet is a great resource! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Padlet?

The only thing I dislike about Padlet is that it can get a bit cluttered when everyone posts at once, making it hard to follow the flow of information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

It’s really useful to review information collaborating with my team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Padlet?

With PADLET,my groups can practice the 4 skills of a language lesson: listening to each other, talking about the proposed issues, writing their comments and reading each other's ideas. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Padlet?

After using it for free for some time, I decided to get a pro account with Padlet so that I could organize my activities and keep them for longer. I still have to browse through the configurations to get a better result and take the best out of it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

As a teacher of English for advanced levels teaching remotely, it gives me a board students can use to perform an array of activities more autonomously. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Atticus From Padlet of Padlet

We're thrilled to learn that Padlet is helping your groups practice all four language skills effectively – listening, speaking, writing, and reading. It's wonderful to see how Padlet facilitates these skills within your language lessons. We understand your desire for more flexibility in your usage, especially with the limitations of the free version. We're glad that Padlet is aiding you in conducting engaging and autonomous activities for your advanced English students, even in remote teaching scenarios. If you have any more insights to share or questions, don't hesitate to reach out over social media @padlet. Your feedback contributes to our ongoing improvements.

What do you like best about Padlet?

Padlet allows virtual educators like me to provide a space for collaboration and discussion, both synchronously and asynchronously. I often use the padlets to provide resources for students, which I can update and modify as needed without needing a new link. My students can create posts on discussion padlets, and then comment or like other students' posts to provide feedback. We also use this tool at my school to hold virtual walk through of student art galleries and science fair projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Padlet?

I don't like that the free version has such limited space. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
