### "Padlet helps harness individual input to share in a collaborative group setting"

February 13, 2026

5.0

Overall, I was pleased with our experience of Padlet. It provided a way for our educational team to see everyone's input visually. We could add to the boards and update as needed. It became a great reference type document for us.

Pros

It was an excellent tool for group collaboration in an educational setting. It allowed multiple participants to add in their own creative thoughts and viewpoints in real time. Everyone could see as the ideas developed. There was a real sense of individual input and seeing the 'big picture' at the same time. Using Padlet has overall been a good value for money. It's features are helpful, and it is user friendly.

Cons

When we used boards with multiple participants, sometimes the collaborative input became a little unorganized and hard to read as a whole. It would be nice if we could establish some more sequence at times.

### "Must have for every educator"

March 24, 2025

5.0

I'm very happy with Padlet and I would encourage every educator to use it

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

### "A Handy Tool for Group Work"

May 22, 2025

4.0

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.

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.

### "Beautiful and Safe online portal. "

June 16, 2025

5.0

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.

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.

### "5 years and strong!"

July 7, 2025

5.0

we used it at my uni 4 yrs ago (AFTRS) and i fell in love with it then. i have been using it ever since

Pros

great journal entry/ mind dump/ place to store all things written that isnt iphone notes. i find my ideas get lost in physical journals/ notes app whereas padlet im able to highly organise my thoughts from years ago to now

Cons

the templates are very structured so no ability to sort as i would like. it would be cool to be able to sort things by colour, date, style, and then to go back again if that makes sense

### "Must use Padlet!!"

May 22, 2025

5.0

Excellent! Great for school work and for personal use! I recommend a lot of my colleagues and friends for the same.

Pros

It has a really nice feature of embedding everything perfectly in any structure we want. We can choose between many styles and layouts.

Cons

It should allow for more than 3 boards at a time for non-premium users. It's hard to maintain boards.

My overall experience has been great! My class was able to collaborate with a class in India on a topic we were both working on. It was an amazing opportunity!

Pros

I love that students, coworkers, or whoever fits your needs can collaborate from anywhere using this platform.

### "Padlet as an efficient tool for CPD training"

October 31, 2024

5.0

Padlet is a user-friendly and efficient collaborative platform suitable for children and CPD training alike. Teachers also employ Padlet as a professional tool to document the shortcomings of digital devices, using it as a ticketing system, which represents another beneficial application in actual school settings.

Pros

Maximizing collaboration through Padlet in professional development, particularly in remote online workshops, allows for instant reactions and the ability to respond to article content. Interactive Padlet boards are revolutionizing traditional training sessions. The impact of Padlet on our Continuing Professional Development (CPD) experience has enhanced both the experience and the results. Moreover, building a strong growth community by engaging peers on Padlet for CPD training, as well as for courses on AI ethics and educational use, is proving to be effective.

Cons

"The AI image generator may not be as efficient as other tools currently, but it is expected to become more effective with time. I appreciate the AI improvements made to Padlet creation.

### "We LOVE Padlet! YES We Do! "

October 11, 2024

4.0

We LOVE using padlet in our library. Students are responding and sharing their ideas more and more each day. I love to see graphic representations and responses to other posts that may agree or disagree. I've led PD for teachers using Padlet to make lesson collaboration spaces for instructional practice use.

Pros

I like that students can post their thoughts (in various ways) about a a topic of discussion

Cons

I like that Padlet has 3 free boards but, $99 for a year's use is quite steep for educators. I sacrificed because our school is doing read alouds K-5 and we needed a way to capture student engagement throughout the lessons.

### "Padlet Discussion Board Use"

November 1, 2024

5.0

Padlet is easy to use and a great method to inform and allow interactions

Pros

Our school uses Padlet to post all digital information and resources for our students. The ability to connect Padlets allows for a lot of Flexibility. This year I noticed a new Padlet format discussion and I am using that in my online classes

Cons

On the Discussion Padlet it would be nice to have a teacher view to quickly look at new posts and replies based on a time frame. So if we grade on day x and then do grading on day y we would just see a list of post and critiques made within thta time froma.

### "Thank you Padlet"

September 23, 2024

5.0

I've been using Padlet for over 8 years. I love it. I love that students always have access to the dicussion board. Now students will have access to all the read alouds I use in case they need them! It is very user friendly for both teachers and students. Recentlty it has helped me save the content from Flip.com that I have collected over the past 8 years! I am very appreciative of that!

Pros

I love how this becomes a virtual discussion board that students always have access to. Recently I have been migrating my videos over from flip.com. I've always used Padlet but never before for videos. Now I realize I can do everything here.

Cons

I wish it was free! I'd use it so much more if it was. I migrated lots of content over. Does this mean in order to keep it here I'll have to pay $99 a year? I really hope not!

November 5, 2024

5.0

My Pros describe--I've used in my math and reading content teaching with 5th grade. I've also used extensively with my Adult ESL students! They enjoy using it, adding pictures and it enhances their writing skills. Love it!

Pros

Many different ways to use for teaching strategies/writing/math, all content areas at all different levels, plus the captivating backgrounds! Please add more captivating backgrounds!

Cons

Nothing! However, possibly, when you have updates to the different areas of the platform, it's a bit hard to adjust to the newness. Have used for years! Still want to use!

### "The Perfect Jamboard Replacement has Arrived!"

August 22, 2024

5.0

I liked Padlet. I LOVE Sandbox!! So easy to use, and as a professional trainer, user friendly on the other side of a virtual call as well!

Pros

I have been mourning the loss of Jamboard since I first received notice that it was going away and searching for a replacement since. Sanbox is THE PERFECT replacement!!! Easy to use and share with some cool new features as well! I work as a professional trainer. Sandbox is A LIFESAVER to ensure I can get participants engaged and sharing thoughts and ideas easily and instantly.

Cons

It would be nice if there were more solid background color choices.

Loved Jamboard but it is going away. I tried FIgJam and Miro first as these were recommended by Google. They were not user-friendly enough. Tried some others and had the same issue, especially when it came to sharing and then easy interactions from participants.

### "Padlet - A Digital tool fit for purpose and projection "

October 21, 2024

5.0

Really extends and strengthens the value of using this digital education and communication tool.

Pros

I am still learning about padlet, but for now I always wanted to make my webinar sessions come alive with a little narrative, relevant pictures, videos, student comments and most of all without discriminating special education needs students - SEN. Creating lessons with a touch of holistic learning using padlet as a digital education communication platform that makes interacting fun and engaging for the Class. Padlet allows us using the Universal Design for Learning UDL as an approach to Teaching and Learning that gives all students an equal opportunity. We are not leaving any learner behind.

Cons

Difficult to create new padlets as it latches onto the previous padlets and make it difficult to separate the different padlets.

### "Padlet Student Engagement Tool"

September 13, 2024

5.0

I use Padlet each week to help my students be engaged with our classroom content and share their own responses with each other. My students love to share on our Padlet Walls, and it's never a boring lesson when they get to post and read their peers' responses. Because my students love it, I love it too!

Pros

I love that all students get to participate and can learn from each other throughout the day. Having unlimited Padlet access I can create interactive questions to help my students learn and be engaged, instead of just having them respond alone on a blank piece of paper.

Cons

That is really hard to answer. I love everything about Padlet.

I knew the Padlet in the middle of 2020 year and since this I use for profissional and personal purposes. Like teacher, I share contents, exercises and stuff with my students.

I think that is a great tool for many purposes

Pros

### "The Ultimate Multi-Use Sharing Space"

August 16, 2024

5.0

Overall Padlet is a fantastic toolset. Whether you're just looking for a quick and easy digital whiteboard, a more comprehensive planning and organizational space, or a way to share and submit ideas and digital files Padlet has options that are likely to work for your specific need. I would highly recommend giving it a try.

Pros

Padlet is a great multi-tasker - the Swiss Army Knife of digital collaboration. Many features that are the central selling point of entire services exist within Padlet as just another option for how you create your space. I use Padlet for sharing, working with teams, submitting ideas, and even to gather feedback.

Cons

One downside of Padlet is the freedom and openness can mean that you have to be a bit more intentional about how you set up your space in order to get what you want. More options and flexibility is great! But it also means there's more to choose from and more to filter out.

Switched from

[Trello](https://www.capterra.com/p/211559/Trello/)

I used Trello to organize shelves of to do lists for complex tasks, but this is just one of the many features built into Padlet, so it's significantly more effective to use them as I get way more options as a bonus!
