Kahoot! VS Sendsteps, which is the best interactive presentation software tool?
An interactive presentation tool is a great way to engage your audience in your presentation. Kahoot! is a presentation software that is incredibly useful for engaging students and boosting participation in classes, but it’s not the only option out there. Kahoot! alternatives like Sendsteps can also help your students answer questions with ease and at top speed. Both platforms have their own strengths and weaknesses. Read on to learn more about these two options!
First of all, we need to understand what this software is. It's a presentation tool designed to make lectures more interactive, memorable and ultimately successful when persuading audiences to take action. Simply ask your questions on the presentation screen and your audience can participate live through their telephone.
Prices
Standard plan
The main difference between the Sendsteps and Kahoot! standard plan is the price. With Sendsteps, there is no monthly fee; they offer a free account while with Kahoot!, there is a monthly fee of nineteen euros. However, many people may find it worthwhile to get the extra 10 participants from Kahoot! compared to the competitor's limit of 10 participants. The Kahoot! Standard plan only offers 1 image per presentation as to where you can add unlimited images to the Sendsteps presentation.
Starter plan
The main difference in the starter plan is the audience size. You can add up to 250 audience members by Sendsteps for 8,95 euros per month. With Kahoot! you can only add an audience size of 50 people with Kahoot! for 39 euros per month. You do however have more question types with the Kahoot! Starter plan compared to Sendsteps.
Pro plan
The same differences apply between the starter and the pro plan. In terms of the size of their audiences, the two are very different. Whilst Sendsteps audiences can extend up to an unlimited number of people, only 2000 at most will be able to access a game on Kahoot!. You can subscribe monthly to Sendsteps for about €19.99. If you want to sign up with Kahoot!, it’ll cost you €49 euro every month. However, you're offered more varied questions types with Kahoot!.
