What do you like best about Padlet?

Padlet allows me to post my entire week on one platform. I use it to organize each subject I teach with all the links for the week. Also, when I have a substitute- students (in first grade) know how to pull Padlet up and operate the day. I can leave pics and videos on there, as well!!! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Padlet?

Padlet's features are perfect for what I need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Padlet solves the problem of convenience and access, for teachers. There are many resources we use in a day. Some are consistent from week to week and other's change weekly/daily. Padlet helps me store and share everything in one place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Padlet?

I love how padlet is fully customizable, and it's very intuitive and user friendly. I'm a big fan of the changes padlet recently rolled out and will likely use several of them. And, I know it's a small detail, but I love the little positive messages that pop up when you create a padlet. "Let's make something beautiful" and such - it really does make my day. We use virtual whiteboards in our synchronous and asynchronous executive training all the time, and I prefer padlet to any of the other similar products like google jamboard, etc. Participants who are not tech saavy still find it easy to use and not intimidating, which is very important. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Padlet?

The only negative I can think of is that the new map function doesn't allow you to upload an image of a map that you created yourself. But that's a very minor detail and might not be something other clients are asking for. :) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We use padlet as a virtual whiteboard in our asynchronous executive training, which allows participants to meet each other and discuss issues virtually before they meet in an in-person or online session. It increases learner engagement and encourages networking, which is very helpful. We also use padlets for our online synchronous training during case studies or applied exercises - it gives us an easy and straightforward way for breakout groups to record their answers to the exercise questions. For example, we'll be using padlets tomorrow (one for each breakout group) for participants to design driver diagrams in a workshop on wicked policy problems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Atticus From Padlet of Padlet

Thank you for such a glowing review! It's wonderful to hear how Padlet's customizability and user-friendly design enhance your executive training sessions. We're glad the positive messages and intuitive interface make a meaningful difference for you and your participants. We appreciate your feedback on the map function as well; it’s insights like these that help us continue to improve. For any more suggestions or support, please don’t hesitate to reach out on social media (@padlet). We’re here to help and eager to make your experience even better!

What do you like best about Padlet?

Padlet provides me with a creative space to inspire students to reflect and share. The versatility of the platform makes it stand out for me. I can given students the freedom to express themselves via words, images or videos. They can leave responses to other students' posts. As well, i can easily embed my Padlets in my course Google Sites. Whenver I've had questions, I've contacted Padlet and gotten responses almost immediately, even on the weekend! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Padlet?

Some students have a hard time posting directly in Google Sites when I embed the Padlet. So I need to always provide the option to click on a link that takes them to a new window. I also miss the old Timeline option with an actual line on the screen! It makes it really clear to students what the purpose is of the padlet. Please bring back this option! :) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

It often replaces the in-class white board for me. Why have students write on a board you are only going to erase when we can use a Padlet to which we can then refer later? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Atticus From Padlet of Padlet

We're thrilled to hear that you find Padlet to be a fantastic educational resource and appreciate its versatility. Your feedback about embedding Padlets in Google Sites and the Timeline option is valuable. We're always looking to improve the platform, so we'll take your suggestions into consideration.

What do you like best about Padlet?

It is easy to use, continues to grow to meet user needs, tech support is extremely helpful and responds quickly. I adore the fun twists they put on the applications (like the greetings) , notices of new features, and on emails. We need more smiles like those that Padlet provides! Whenever I have a need for addtional help from a human being after trying to learn via a tutorial video, I can ask for to meet with someone to assist me. That is HUGE! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Padlet?

There is nothing I dislke. It is constantly adding featires a nd streamlining current ones. It has grown signifcantly in the 4-5 years I have been using it in providing professional learning sessions with educators and families of youth being servied in our school system. It is my main go-to sharing app. THANK YOU!!! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

It has solved the problem of sharing multiple rsoiurces of all types from training sessions. SO much easier. ONE stop shopping! It also has helped with other apps going away such as JamBoard at Google. PLEASE do not go away! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Padlet?

Padlet allows me to ask my students all sorts of open ended questions and see their reactions in real time. No multiple choice required. Everything is customizable. There are options to anonymize or show authors depending upon whether you are trying to gauge participation or just get candid responses. Students can comment on one another and upvote, like, or even grade each other's posts. I have found so many ways to use Padlet from analyzing texts to collaborative problem solving to assessing prior knoweldge, even course evaluation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Padlet?

The only downside of using Padlet is that you have a limited number of boards to work with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

What do you like best about Padlet?

I like the live posting. I project the padlet in my classroom and have students do a check-in, or even a get-to-know you exercise on the first day of class. It helps get students out of their shell and have a platform that they feel comfortable talking on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Padlet?

I can't really think of anything yet. Maybe more teacher-related functions? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

It is helping me better utilize technology in the classroom. As the average college student is becoming more and more tech-savvy, it is of utmost importance that I keep up with technology as an educator, and find better ways to include it in my daily lessons. It is a great tool to get a conversation started. I love being able to create categories, and even include videos and gifs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Padlet?

I like how Padlet has different templates to create a virtual organizer that is specific for the task. We all have our favorites and lean towards those. However, with the new templates, I know I can create better organizers that are specific to a purpose instead of using just one Padlet. Thank you for creating templates and examples. Some of us need that "push" to create something that is better suited to a project and has the flexibility to make it more understandable when you want a specific kind of collaboration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Padlet?

As an educator, I would like a place where a person's name is required to be on a post or a comment. It would be great if this feature could be turned on or off. I normally like to know who is the author, but sometimes anonymous is better. If you could develop this as a feature, that would be great! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Padlet is SO organized! I struggle with virtual organization. My Google Drive is a mess. Padlet helps me organize so many things and helps me to distinguish things that are personal to me versus what information I need to collaborate with others. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Atticus From Padlet of Padlet

Thank you for your valuable feedback! We're thrilled to hear that you appreciate the different templates and examples that help you create customized organizers for various purposes.
