Mentimeter Reviews & Product Details

How easy it is to set up interactive presentations. It helps a lot teaching in higher education, as with big lecture halls we can gage how students are feeling, there knowledge and how well they are doing at tasks live. I also use it to gain feedback from big cohorts as the sliding scales are really quick for them to full out. It great how easy it is for people to sue without having to sign up.

I don't like that it discourages some in-person interactions and tends to keep people focused on their phones or screens. It would be better if there were more features designed to encourage conversations either before or after using the app. Additionally, the quiz functionality feels limited. For example, if someone doesn't enter the exact correct value, the system can't recognize it as correct, even if the answer is only off by a space or a slight rounding difference. A more intelligent feature that can identify roughly correct responses in free text would be a significant improvement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Everyone can join from their phone or laptop, and the responses appear live on the projector, making it feel like a real-time competition where everyone wants to win. The customer support is excellent, and the platform’s ease of use and implementation really stand out, it’s quick to set up, simple to manage, and easy to handle questions and answers without any technical hassle. The frequency of use is high because it’s genuinely engaging and fun to use, not just for one-off sessions but regularly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It would be even better if it offered YouTube video integration for interactive questions and allowed users to drag or copy questions directly from ChatGPT into Mentimeter for a faster setup experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really enjoy using Mentimeter in my classes because it makes students genuinely engage with the material. The platform lets me add GIFs, music, and fun, hands-on questions that keep everyone interested. The competitive part—where students can see who gets first place—always brings great energy to the room.

It’s super easy to implement in the classroom, and I actually use it at least once a week. It also integrates really well with Canvas, which makes setup and grading simple. The customer support team has been very helpful whenever I’ve had tech questions.

My favorite feature so far is the AI tool—it saves me so much time when creating interactive activities and quizzes.

Overall, it’s a fun, reliable, and creative tool that keeps students actively involved and makes class time more dynamic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only downside is that occasionally some students experience minor tech issues when running Mentimeter on their devices. It doesn’t happen often, but it has come up a few times in my classes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find it convenient and easy to use. It is simple for the presenters and participants to join and interact without technical hurdles.

Also, the features like Q & A, world clouds, quizzes... make the presentations interactive and boost participation and attention. The real-time feedback allows the presenters to gauge the understanding on the spot, and Metimeter works on any device via browser or app Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The tool has limited customization and basic visualization options, which makes some charts appear less polished. Additionally, using the tool can be frustrating if the internet connection is poor. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that Mentimeter allows a mix of visual and verbal media. For example, if I use it to ask a question, I can also include a relevant image that prompts reflection, or a funny gif to engage the audience on a personal level and alleviate tension. The features are easy to use; creating a Menti presentation takes a few minutes. Presenting it live is self-paced, which means we take as little or as long as necessary.

I use Mentimeter in my role as a university lecturer. In practical workshops, we use Menti to quiz students on previous materials and check their understanding. In such cases, the fact it's anonymous creates a safe space for students to answer without fear of reprisal. Meanwhile, the "leaderboard" brings in an element of friendly competition, which, coupled with anonymity, can engage the class on a deeper level than passive listening.

However, my favourite way to use Mentimeter is for polling student opinions during large-room lectures. In these settings, students don't often speak in class as they feel "on the spot" and it can be intimidating speaking up in front of dozens or hundreds of others. Using Menti quizzes allows me to give students an anonymous, safe voice. Asking "How are you doing today?" and grouping answers in a word cloud helps start the conversation in an easy-going, accessible way and makes the lecture hall less intimidating. In short, it helps students connect to each other and to me, by humanising the experience. Then, using open-ended questions and rating scales allows me to prompt the students' own opinions and insight, which involves them in the learning process.

In the past, students reported that using a quiz was more engaging than passive listening, especially to break a long lecture session. At best, it makes the audience an active participant in the content, and at worst, it provides feedback on the audience's reactions. For that reason, it's very useful.

The one downside of Mentimeter (or my own use of it) is that I haven't figured out how to incorporate it directly into Powerpoint presentations, without having to log in in a separate window, switch screens and present from there. In a presentation, that might mean changing presenter view, recording multiple screens, and it's generally a bit of a hassle. It does not prevent me from using Menti effectively, but it required a brief periof of adjustment and trouble-shooting presentations. As a result, it took me a while to get used to Mentimeter and get comfortable with it. What would help alleviate this issue is more sign-posting on how to integrate Menti with other software (for those, like me, who are a bit clutzy when switching task modes).

Mentimeter is an outstanding tool for creating interactive presentations that truly engage students. It offers a wide range of activity types, such as multiple-choice polls, open-ended questions, ranking exercises, and word clouds, that can be seamlessly embedded into your slides to encourage participation and real-time feedback. One of its most impressive recent updates is the integration with Google Slides, which makes it easy to enhance existing presentations without extra effort. The platform is intuitive and user-friendly, allowing both educators and students to interact effortlessly through any device. With its visually appealing live results and dynamic features, Mentimeter transforms traditional lectures into interactive experiences that students consistently enjoy and find motivating.

Nothing really. I will say it is a near-perfect tool for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Mentimeter is an outstanding tool for enhancing classroom engagement and interaction. I especially appreciate its wide range of features like live polls, quizzes, and word clouds, which allow students to participate actively and anonymously. It’s excellent for instant evaluation of students’ understanding and skills, and the brainstorming tools help generate meaningful discussions. The ability to export results and use them for further analysis or documentation is a big plus. It also supports inclusive participation, making it easier to hear from every student, even in large or quiet classes. Overall, it’s a dynamic and effective platform for both teaching and learning.

Mentimeter could improve its easy integration with PowerPoint—it’s not seamless and doesn’t allow easy copy-paste of text or slides from PPT. Formatting options are limited, and more flexibility in design and layout would make it even better. Adding features like customizable fonts, better slide transitions, and more advanced visual options would enhance its usability for professional presentations.

I have been using Mentimeter for more than two years, and I use it every day during the week. Uploading my slides is straightforward, and it has made my classes much more interactive. Mentimeter also allows me to incorporate various universal design for learning principles, which helps make learning enjoyable for my students. To create a presentation have been very easy and stress free especially with the integration of AI. To implement and incorporate a video or audio into my slide has been perfect! As for customer support, I haven't had any technical issue that requires a customer support but some of their staffs that have visited my institution have been great!

Some features were discontinued like stopwatch and some other ones I can't really remember which were good to have especially during exams in a learning environment like mine. I would appreciate if they are added to give a more exciting experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Mentimeter is an excellent tool for engaging your audience, adding interactive elements to presentations, and collecting feedback. I highly recommend it for use in higher education, as it effectively supports classroom, remote, and hybrid teaching environments. Additionally, it works very well for company events, team meetings, workshops, and similar occasions. What I particularly appreciate about this tool is its user-friendly, PowerPoint-like interface combined with a wide range of interactive features. It was very easy to implement, and their customer success management is also excellent! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As a system administrator, I would appreciate having additional features for user management and usage analytics. For instance, the ability to search or filter data and then perform bulk operations when necessary would be very helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The open-ended questions are well organized. This is the only part of Menti I like. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The lack of canvas integration, the obsession with tracking every single thing from non-engagement pages, the lack of tools like drag and drop, the lack of page numbers, the 2 second lag between pages, no questions inside videos, the lack of ability to easily add a set of slides to an existing presentation. Those are the problems I had this week! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
