I love being able to customize the questions based on what we want to focus on, which in our industry is always changing. I personally believe that when reviewing things in a fun way like with Kahoot! it helps make the subject matter stick better. Pros I love how Kahoot! makes learning fun, especially when the subject material is not very fun. We deal a lot with mandated policies and this is a fun way for the team to review.

Teacher E-Learning Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Gamified Review of Content" June 17, 2025 3.0 The kiddos enjoy learning and studying for tests using Kahoot. I really like that it helps students get excited about learning. Pros Gamified studying for student that helps keep attention for longer periods of time than normal content review. Cons Kahoot has a character limit for question and answer choices that limits asking questions that are too long or at a higher order of thinking. Review Source JB Jonathan B. HR and Operations Analyst Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Kahoot in the Workplace" December 18, 2025 5.0 Kahoot has been great for friendly competition at work, and I love the idea of how customizable it is. We use it for company parties or just events where we're gathering. We tend to give out prizes to staff members that have the highest score at the end. Pros Kahoot is such a staple at our organization! It's not even funny how many times we use it for all staff events. We tend to use it for the accessibility when it we have a number of staff present. Cons I think the only downside and worry to Kahoot is that you cannot filter out inappropriate names if possible. I say this only because we use it at a work function, and it would be nice to remove certain names or have a warning for them. Review Source TM Tara M. Teacher Education Management Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Best Review Game" July 3, 2025 5.0 Overall, I highly recommend Kahoot! It’s great for reviewing, studying, and instant feedback. As a teacher, it is a vital tool that I will always keep in my pocket. Pros I love the ability to create my own custom quizzes for my students. I can even add images to the quizzes. There’s also a pre-made data bank of quizzes made by others that you can save and use! Cons Some feature are only available with the top premium subscription. I wish they were available for all.

April 8, 2025 4.0 My overall experience with Kahoot has been great. My students love it and it has games for any topic. Pros I like how interactive and collaborative it is. Cons Now Kahoot has a paid feature that offers more than the free platform. Review Source SD Suzanne D. Sales manager Insurance Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Fun interactive " November 10, 2025 4.0 Fun engaging interactive tool to run quizzes, feedback online or in person. Good for team meetings and teams sessions Pros Fun interactive platform for quizzes, seeking feedback. An engagement tool to bring an audience together. Cons Would like to understand more functionality to tailor questions to an audience maybe more information in use with the App. Review Source SN Srish N. digital transformation Design Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Fun and Engaging, but Limited Without Payment" February 2, 2026 4.0 Overall, my experience with Kahoot! has been good. It is easy to use, entertaining, and effective for quizzes, even though the pricing can be a drawback. Pros Kahoot! is very fun, interactive, and dynamic. It makes learning more engaging and competitive, keeps everyone involved, and works well for both classrooms and group activities. Cons The free version feels quite limited and not very useful. Many good features are locked behind a paywall, so you often have to upgrade to fully enjoy the platform. Review Source Alexa H. school psyshologi Higher Education Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "a fun examn" December 2, 2024 5.0 both the students and teachers love it. Its easy to use and if you are a teacher you have this tool that can tell you where is that your students need help Pros there is a lot of free recourses if you have a teacher acount Cons some of the best features are pay plan only Review Source TG Tamara G. Nurse Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Useful and helpful" July 29, 2025 5.0 It was very useful, kept us all very engaged in class; professor made two groups and made us compete. Pros It was very entertaining; it was used for questions and answers in class for Pharmacology for participation. Cons It was very diverse; with different levels of difficulty and very different types of questions, I liked that very much. Review Source RB Robert B. Head of IT and Deputy Head of Secondary Education Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "What you want is to Kahoot!" July 3, 2024 5.0 For the times I have used it, I have found it appropriate and keeps students engaged. Additionally as a teacher I still have full control of the quizzes and can provide feedback with statistics to the students. Pros One of the few things that the students really enjoy and for that reason I am drawn to it. That said, I have found it very easy to use and setup. Cons It takes time to customise and setup the quizzes and while it has a question bank, it is always better to set up your own questions and this takes time. Alternatives considered [Wayground](https://www.capterra.com/p/207437/Quizizz/)[Quizlet](https://www.capterra.com/p/202775/Quizlet/) Reason for choosing Kahoot! The students seem to enjoy it more than the others but from a teacher's point of view, Kahoot offered me more in terms of providing statistics and feedback to my students in realtime. Review Source JS Jeremy S. Full-Time Substitute Teacher E-Learning Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Students Love Kahoot!" March 7, 2022 5.0 Students absolutely love Kahoot! Above any other study games or activities I would come up with, students loved Kahoot the most. I never really understood it because it just seems like a timed quiz to me, but hey, if it works it works! Pros Kahoot is very easy to setup, save, and modify preexisting ones. I personally never used other peoples kahoots but I did reuse my own kahoots over the couple year period I was teaching. This made it very easy to on-the-fly come up with a great study or knowledge-check activity. Cons Everyone seems to love the music but I find it quite annoying. I also wish there was a "force user sign in" option where students could just sign in with their school information including their name instead of either allowing them to come up with their own "names" which often lead to inappropriate names, or forcing them to use the random name generator which causes many arguments and students wanting to keep randomizing it until they got something they liked. It wouldn't need to include their full name, just a prompt for first name and last initial. Switched from [Google Forms](https://www.capterra.com/p/176571/Google-Forms/) Students love Kahoot and aren't a huge fan of google forms. Review Source MZ Michelle Z.

My students would beg for Kahoots all of the time! Pros It fun and engaging for the students. It's an easy way to gamify learning. Cons The upgrade is very expensive, and the free version is limited. Review Source JL James L. Assistant Professor Higher Education Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Fun and exciting" December 14, 2024 4.0 It’s fun to create quizzes and even ice breakers in get togethers. Pros It’s fun to use and makes learning more engaging and fun. Cons It gamifies the quizzes in my lesson so it becomes more engaging for the students. Review Source EP Eldar P. Media Editor And Manager E-Learning Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Kahoot provides a quick quiz solution for teachers and friends game nights" August 8, 2024 4.0 Pros Kahoot is a fantastic tool for creating quick quizzes anywhere, as participants only need a mobile device or computer to join. It's incredibly useful for teachers seeking engaging ways to teach and is perfect for family and friends game nights. The interface is user-friendly, making it relatively easy to create quizzes. Cons Sometimes its not easy and fast for everyone to connect to the quiz. I would expect there to be easier ways. Review Source JCH Juan Carlos H. Business Administration Writing and Editing Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Kahoot Software Excellent" February 12, 2024 5.0 It is an excellent product, with great features. Intuitive, dynamic. I recommend it 100% I give it 5 stars. Pros I love that Kahoot allows you to interact with different test models in real time. From any device, for group work in business, university or with family and friends. Its interface is easy to use, it is fast, beautiful, and with very good tools to work or generate didactic activities of great value. Cons So far I have not had any disadvantages with Kahoot. Review Source AB Alina B. Teacher Education Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Kahoot - teachers like it, students love it " July 4, 2024 5.0 I love Kahoot, even a small kid can use it. It’s fun for teachers and students. Students can be more competitive specially when they have a count down Pros It’s very easy to use for kids and grown ups also. As a teacher I can go for quizzes that students can easily complete specially when they use phones, laptops or computers Cons Doesn’t load that quickly, sometimes requires more time to run the log ins for everyone Review Source Supun S. Student Computer Software Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "A new trend of quizzes with Kahoot!" November 15, 2019 5.0 Kahoot is a platform developed to create online quizzes and assignments. We can make a list of questions using Kahoot and then create a game. In this game questions are given as multiple choice questions which has four choices for each question and we have to include that four answers when we creating the game. After creating the game Kahoot provide a pin code. Players can join to the game using that pin code. Players can give their answers using a smartphone or computer when the server is hosting the game. Result sheet can be obtained after finishing the game. This platform is widely used in our university to hold online quizzes on lecture times. I really like this because of the simplicity of the game and holding these types of quizzes saves our time lot. I recommend using this in small events because this can be a fantastic experience. Pros Kahoot included many features to attract people to their platform. It has attractive user interface on their website. This makes our work easier either we creating a game or playing a game. Kahoot made our quizzes and assignments more joyful to do when compared with traditional way of writing quizzes and assignments. This saves our time lot. Since the results of the game generated automatically after finishing the game, this helps lecturers as well. No time waste for correcting and marking answer sheets. Another good feature I saw is that the correct answer of each question will be shown after answering the question. Other than the correct answer, detailed information about the answers given from the community is shown with relevant number of choices for each answer with a bar graph. After the game we can see the top three players who scored most. Other rankings can be found through the result sheet. These features are really fascinating. Cons I have found some issues when using this platform. We need good internet connection to use Kahoot. I am disconnected few times when using this. But this is not a fault of Kahoot. Questionnaire must be re-started if the sever faced any connection problem. Only the symbols related to the answers will be shown on players’ display. Sometimes this can be messing watching relevant symbol again and again before confirming answer. Only multiple choice questions can be included into the question list. I think it will be more useful if they include more answering formats such as text answers. Sometimes one person that needs to play the game may not have any device to play. However these types of issues are very rare on these days since everyone have their own smartphone with good internet connection. Review Source DO David O. Teacher Education Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Kahoot is Crucial for Teaching" August 26, 2021 5.0 Kahoot addresses the need for a gamified classroom because it holds student's attention and excites the students. Even the more shy or unsure students are willing to try if generic user names are used. Students remember the material well after "competing" on Kahoot. Pros This software is incredibly engaging and students love the gamified content. The students loved competing, reviewing, learning new material and "showing their stuff" through Kahoot's quizzes, games, tests and reviews. With ELLs, pictures are easily added to support the question, and the flexibility allows for multiple testing formats. Cons The software itself is great, and it may be a paid feature, but videos would allow my ASL users to view signed videos and then respond accordingly, as opposed to solely text-based questions. A drag and drop feature would help production of the Kahoot quizzes faster, but downloading an image then uploading it isn't difficult. The limited library or items Kahoot provides allows some quick uploads, but needs expanding. Review Source MM Mark M. Religion Teacher Education Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "After years of asking, Kahoot still doesn't "talk" to google classroom" December 23, 2021 3.0 Kahoot is a great way to build and even ensure engagement. Kahoot games are quite plainly a lot of fun both for hosts and players. Its a great way to gamify training or a classroom. So I still love Kahoot and I use it often but I could love it more if there were a way to align it with google classroom and if there was an efficient way to track performance. Pros I still love Kahoot despite missing features that would make me love it more. Kahoot is so easy to use and a great way to build engagement. There are so many games to choose from and if somethings not quite right, games can be very easily edited or even created. Games are so fun to play and even fun to host. Kahoot makes gamification easy for fun, interactive learning for all ages. Cons What kahoot is missing, which keeps me from loving it even more, is a way to track performance via google classroom or other educational management systems. Kahoot can be launched with google classroom, but then the data from the games isn't sent back to google classroom. So classroom talks to Kahoot, but for whatever reason Kahoot doesn't talk back to google. I reached out to Kahoot many times about this and I get the same answer that this is not a feature they are interested in providing. What a shame. What also happens often is players use hurtful and offensive and inappropriate nicknames. This is quite common in schools but can also happen in the workplace. As far as I know, there is no way to track this. Kahoot offers a friendly nickname generator to avoid this, but then there is no way to track performance. So essentially Kahoot which could be so powerful in assessment and training, is simply reduced to a really fun game or just basic enreichment. Again...What a shame. Review Source Israel P.

Pros Its easy to use and the fact that its free version is really complete. Cons I think that some fields need to include more activities and lessons. Review Source Sam Z. Assistant Principal Education Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Game Changer " June 25, 2022 5.0 Kahoot help solve blue student engagement. After using kahoots I have noticed student engagement can increase. My overall experience has been positive and I would recommend the platform without hesitation. Pros Kahoot is easy to use. Integrating with my existing products is also light work. I like how teachers and students can implement Kahoot with little to know problems. Cons Kahoot is easy to use. That is one of the best things about this platform. I understand that kahoot has diminishing returns like all things. Used strategically kahoot can increase student engagement. If you overuse, student burnout is possible. Reason for choosing Kahoot! I selected kahoot because of the ease of implementation and the price point, it's free. Review Source KN Kaushal N. Manager Education Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Kahoot Review " September 23, 2022 5.0 I am in a teaching profession and I also work in the HR department, Kahoot has proved to be really helpful to me as it enables me to perform multiple tasks and makes it easier for me to complete my day to day work in less time . I am a very satisfied user. Pros I am an educator and as such I realize the importance of Gamification and interactive learning. Kahoot is exactly that platform, it provides you every necessary feature you can think of, right from making interesting quizzes that helps you and others to learn together and exchange your knowledge in a fun way, to polls that help you collect statistical data and conduct surveys. Cons When multiple players are connected to the same platform, the wifi connection must be strong or else it would not work. Review Source Mehr U. Student Logistics and Supply Chain Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Awesome interactive web based learning platform" December 29, 2022 5.0 Kahoot allows teachers to easily assess student understanding and progress. The platform provides real-time feedback and analytics on student performance, which can help teachers identify areas of weakness and tailor their instruction accordingly.Kahoot can be used in a variety of settings, including in-person and virtual classrooms. The platform has features specifically designed for online learning, such as the ability to host virtual review sessions and share quizzes and polls through a variety of platforms.Kahoot is an affordable and user-friendly tool that is accessible to a wide range of users. Pros As a student, I have really enjoyed using Kahoot in my classes. It's such a fun and interactive way to review and learn new material. The games make the learning process so much more enjoyable and I find myself paying more attention in class because of it. The platform is also really easy to use and I love being able to see how I stack up against my classmates. One of the things I love about Kahoot is the ease of use. It only takes a few minutes to create a quiz or poll and the platform has a variety of question types to choose from, including multiple-choice, true/false, and open-ended responses. it is really good to use for presentations as well to get a poll or valuable input from the audience. Overall, Kahoot has been a great addition to my school experience and I highly recommend it to other students.Overall, I highly recommend Kahoot for any teacher looking to add some excitement to their lessons and make learning more interactive Cons While I generally enjoy using Kahoot in class, I find that the games can sometimes be a bit repetitive. It would be nice to have more variety in the types of games available.One issue I've had with Kahoot is that the timer for answering questions can be a bit too short, especially for more complex or open-ended questions. It would be helpful to have the option to adjust the timer length.While I appreciate the ability to compete against my classmates, I do wish there was a way to customize the leaderboard display. It can be a bit intimidating to see your name at the bottom of the list, and it would be nice to have the option to see how you're doing relative to your own personal best or to your study group.One feature that I think would be really helpful is the ability to save and reuse quizzes or polls. Currently, if I want to use a quiz again in the future, I have to recreate it from scratch. It would save a lot of time and effort if there was a way to save and reuse quizzes.
