Software Developer Computer Software Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Didactic and easy to use" May 26, 2022 5.0 Pros It is a very well built software, which allows you to easily create content for any level of learning and present it in an easy and didactic way, which can be understood by any user, without the need for prior knowledge. In addition, the software allows you to create content from the beginning, making the learning curve short. Cons Integration with other products can be a bit tricky, but it's a minor detail that can be quickly and easily overcome. In addition, the software requires a good internet quality for proper operation. Switched from [Moodle](https://www.capterra.com/p/80691/Moodle/) Kahoot is easier to customize and offers a better interface for first-time users. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Student E-Learning Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Kahoot-it" January 6, 2022 5.0 Pros Good study and learning tool for students in 6th through 12th grade and college/university learning and studying. Cons When you get a question wrong it tells you the correct answer but does not justify why the answer you chose was wrong and why the correct answer is right. I wish this would be added to the individual-based study structure when you do not have a teacher or professor or study group present to explain. Switched from [Quizlet](https://www.capterra.com/p/202775/Quizlet/) Honestly, I switch between Quizlet and Kahoot-it for studying. I use both. Quizlet provides more studying tools than Kahoot-it that only has one. Review Source KL Kristin L. 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 RI Ricardo I. Self Employed Arts and Crafts Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "A fun yet useful tool." May 31, 2026 5.0 My overall experience with Kahoot! is a great one. This tool, despite being a simple one, is crucial when decompressing after a day packed with new information. Pros What I like most about Kahoot! is that you can participate using virtually any device that has an up to date browser. Cons What I least like about Kahoot! is that if the team, group, or class is rather large, the activity can lag a few seconds. 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. 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 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 LG Lyndsey G. Teacher, curriculum designer Education Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Toot for Kahoot!" 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 JA Julian A. IT Technician Education Management Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Kahoot the world!" April 15, 2025 5.0 Pros I love how I can get students to engage and have fun while learning with Kahoot! It makes any subject intriguing and helps students stay focused and on task. Cons Kahoot is a very well put together service. I think the only thing that I can say is that sometimes it may not accept all students and I would have to retry the process again in order for all my students to get in. Review Source NR Nicole R. Marketing Specialist Human Resources Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great for Trainings" June 11, 2025 4.0 Fun and engaging! An easy way to spice up training or presentation and to have both in person and hybrid employees participate. Pros Easy to create engaging employee trainings and team bonding activities. A across all generations in the workforce. Cons Would love a way to have all the results populate on the leaderboard page at the end. At this time, you can only export results to Excel. It would be nice to see all the rankings and answers. Also, the plans get pricier for larger groups of employees (if you want an all company activity) Review Source MM Melissa M. Teacher and Tutor E-Learning Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Kahoot is fun and engaging" February 10, 2025 5.0 I have used it as a formative and summative assessment with my students. Pros I like using Kahoot to assess my students' learning in a fun, engaging format. Cons Sometimes it takes a long time to load. I just need to load it in advance. Review Source CR Ciara R. Quality Assurance Pharmaceuticals Used the software for: 2+ years ### "You Have to Kahoot" February 2, 2025 5.0 Overall, I think it’s fun and it works for any size group. Pros Kahoot is a fun interactive site that allows for a big group of people to take part in a fun experience. Cons If you get the answers wrong, you can’t go back and change it. Review Source RL Richard L. Finance Supervisor Retail Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Richard Lubiano on Kahoot!" May 11, 2023 5.0 Benefits that i realized it helps me, understood my desire topics or subject . Overall experience i have a great time and I enjoyed the app. Pros There are many quizzes/tests you can try either for fun or educational. There are also great features you can use when making your own quiz/test. Kahoot is a user friendly app/website that anyone can access due to its availability worldwide. Cons What I like least was there unfair features for free accounts. Free personal accounts should still get the fair level of attention in updates. Kahoot also should put more features in test/quiz making for it to be more useful for the quiz takers. Review Source PC Pam C. 4th Grade English Language Arts & Social Studies Teacher Primary/Secondary Education Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Kahoot is not just for school age students!" May 15, 2023 5.0 I have used Kahoot both for in person and online learning and no matter how many times a week I do a Kahoot, students always beg for more! I like that the students are engaged and I can see how well each student is doing instantly without grading anything! Pros Kahoot is easy to use and very engaging for both adults and children. Kahoot can be used to measure how much of information presented a group has learned or as a fun brain break. There are even game modes which increase the engagement for kids. Kahoot can be used both with in person and online participants. Last, a Kahoot can be presented as homework which allows the participant to move at their own pace. The reports are very helpful as well. On many plans folders can be made to organize created or copied Kahoots so that they are easily accessible in the future. While the free version does not offer all of the features of Kahoot, if you are on a tight budget and have a small group (under 40), the free version is good enough, especially at the beginning. Cons There is really nothing I do not like about Kahoot, other than the monthly cost. I would like the game modes to be free, but don't we all want something free? Adults who have never tried it will like the competitiveness and doing something different other than taking a quiz at the end of a workshop. 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.

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. English language educator Education Management Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Funtastic Learning with Kahoot" February 15, 2022 4.0 Amazing, I have been using this platform for more than a year and I would say that this has really helped me. 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 JCS Juan Carlos S. Consultan / Contrator Government Administration Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Hooked with Kahoot" March 9, 2022 5.0 Kahoot is excellent software, it is a great and fun way to keep a remote, distracted, non-participative audience connected and engaged all the time with the contents of a training Pros It is difficult to talk about the advantages of Kahoot because there are many, it is a software, simple, easy to use, very friendly, that disconnects people from their cell phones and forces them to pay attention to training, promotes competitiveness, It allows evaluating large audiences, generating reports on this... I love it. Cons I really can not find any cons in this software, I liked it so much. Review Source IM Ivette M. Student Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Kahoot is great for educators and students" July 28, 2022 5.0 Amazing free app that helps with learning and practicing. Pros I love being able to make my own quizzes and upload and share them with others. It is so much fun to play with people and play competitively. It is also fun whenever I pull these out in class and play with students. I get to see how much everyone knows. Cons There are two things that could be improved with this product. First, I think the speed points should be removed. It brings added stress and makes students click answers faster without really thinking or understanding. They often misclick as a result and get questions wrong. I understand that this would remove the competitive aspect that makes it fun, so I would suggest having an alternate game mode where you can toggle this feature for tests and quizzes, and turn it back on when you are playing for fun in a competitive way. The other issue is that kahoot doesn't really fact check the available tests. Anyone can make their own quiz and upload it publicly. I have come across several that have incorrect information and lots of errors. There should be a system to fix this.

It helps bring out the competitive spirit and encourages comradry amongst staff. Customizable templates are easily adjusted to create the desired content. Pros I enjoyed customizing the templates to create fun and engaging content for my training participants and for staff meetings. Cons In my view, Kahoot! is a fun tool that works well and keeps staff engaged. I've not had any negative interactions while using this tool.

January 11, 2022 5.0 Pros \-Functionality -Ease of Use -Mobility -Communication Cons \-Subscription Tiers -Sometimes it takes a few minutes to get someone on the support line. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Special Education Teacher Education Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Student engagement, for a price" July 21, 2022 4.0 Kahoot has always been a go to for teachers who wish to engage their students in the content that they are being taught. It has multiple positive impacts on learning. As an introductory tool, it is excellent for assessing the degree of knowledge a student already has about a topic. In addition, when used mid-way through a unit of study, it provides real time feedback in regards to student understanding. The classroom teacher can then adjust their delivery to emphasize areas of weakness. Pros This program has stood the test of time. It was one of the first tools of this nature and continues to set the bar high. Kahoot provides gamification of classroom learning and can be used on any topic of the teachers choosing or use of pre-made quizes. Cons The process of creating a Kahoot has become more complex over the years. In addition, the search feature and community tends to favour the paying users. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Medical Student/Academic Outreach Higher Education Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Choose Kahoot" June 26, 2022 5.0 Overall, I love using Kahoot for presentations. I especially like using it when I know my audience may be less inclined to verbally participate, or if it is with a younger group that needs gamification to capture their attention. I have used it on all age groups, and even older groups can be excited by the platform. For continued use (weekly), it can be less exciting, and I wish the platform took this more into consideration for future development. Pros Kahoot makes learning fun through gamification. People see it as a game, and thus, are wiling to answer questions and can do so anonymously through usernames. My favorite aspect of the software is that it can be easily integrated into a presentation slide for active participant engagement. Cons My least favorite thing about this software is that the theme background and music does not change, so for continued use, it can be repetitive and less exciting.
