In the classroom setting I have used it many times for students to anonymously project ideas on the screen. This easy to access software can help students to get out of their shells and contribute to a conversation/seminar in ways that they otherwise wouldn't have. > > **Cons**: Padlet's features are functional and easy to use, however they are at times simplistic and lack the more refined features that would be helpful. It feels like an online version of having individuals place stickynotes on a corkboard. It can also be difficult to vet inappropriate submissions if you are not vigilant. > > Overall, even though padlet is simplistic in design and nature it is a helpful and quick tool, especially in the classroom. Users are able to quickly share their ideas and is therefore a perfect starting point for conversations, seminars, or surveys. ----- ### "Must have for every educator" — 5.0/5 > **Amr** | *24 March 2025* | Higher Education | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I use Padlet on a daily basis and it's my favourite, to the extent that I became the Padlet champion at my university. It's simple and easy to use and it works well whether it's about social or individual learning. It's works with groups and all class activities too. I like the fact that students can post their answers anonymously because this creates a safe environment for them to participate in class activities. Students can post anything from pictures to text to file etc.. so it's very flexible and inclusive. I use it with my students not only for in-class activities but also for preps and even to interact with an existing content before our seminars. It's a great all round tool and every educator must use Paldet in one way or another. > > **Cons**: There's no possibility to shorten the links. Although I use QR codes, links are needed for students who use their laptops to access the page. This means that every time I create a Padlet page, I have to rely on third party websites to shorten the link. This creates an extra task to do and I wish Padlet team look into this issue and allow us to generate a shorter link to make it more accessible to students > > I'm very happy with Padlet and I would encourage every educator to use it ----- ### "Padlet as an instrument for Lesson Delivery" — 5.0/5 > **Dr Thiruchelvi** | *22 April 2024* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10 > > **Pros**: Ease of use with AI, is the added feature which I found useful. > > **Cons**: None yet. I will certainly use it with students in the new session and provide my feedback. I enjoy an interactive presence online with my students. > > It has been pleasant and useful as I enjoy engaging my students in the learning ----- ### "A Handy Tool for Group Work" — 4.0/5 > **Damilola** | *22 May 2025* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Padlet is super easy to use and makes working together a breeze. I really like the visual setup, it's like a digital bulletin board where you can easily drag and drop your stuff. It’s great for brainstorming, planning, or teaching. I also liked that you can add images, links, and files right in without needing anything extra. It makes group projects fun and organized. > > **Cons**: The free version has some limits, and you might hit some roadblocks if you’re using it often or with bigger teams. Sometimes, when a lot of people are on at once, the board can slow down a bit. It’d be nice if they could make it work better in real-time and give free users a bit more space. > > Overall, I’ve had a good time with Padlet. It’s a cool tool that mixes creativity and structure. I’ve used it to gather ideas, run discussions, and get my thoughts sorted, and it has worked well for me. The pricing could be a bit high for casual users, but if you need a visually appealing space to collaborate, it's worth a look. I’d suggest it for teachers, teams, and freelancers who like to work visually. ----- ### "Beautiful and Safe online portal." — 5.0/5 > **Georgia** | *16 June 2025* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Padlet acts as a user friendly secure online portal for large, sensitive reports, full of beautiful moments and pictures of my clients and staff. > > **Cons**: Padlets preview function mucks up the formatting on word documents meaning that my clients need to download the documents to view them properly and thi can look unprofessional. > > Padlet is enabling and enjoyable to work with. My clients can all access it easily and the attention to aesthetic makes it perfect for fine tuning to the personal characteristics of the work we do together. ----- Page: 1 / 13\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.za.com/software/2055926/padlet?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.za.com/software/2055926/padlet) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
