## ToolGPA grades

**GPA: 2.0 out of 4**, graded Nov 12, 2026. Emaze makes presentations, websites and other web content, with quizzes, audience analytics and PowerPoint import. The free Basic plan stops at 5 projects. Pro is $9 per user a month on yearly billing, and premium templates, imports and downloads all sit behind it.

- **Value for money: C.** Pro is $9 per user a month billed yearly, inside the category's middle of $10. Education plans at $1 and $2 need a .edu or .gov address.
- **Free plan and trial: C.** Basic is free but stops at 5 projects, 3 quizzes and 1 month of audience analytics. A regular user will hit those.
- **Features: C.** Several content types, PowerPoint and PDF import, quizzes, analytics and custom domains. Premium templates, imports and downloads are locked to paid plans.
- **Ease of use: C.** No store rating on record. It is a web app where you build the content, which takes time.
- **Platforms and integrations: C.** Web only, with a Zoom connection. Downloads as PDF, MP4 or HTML are on Pro.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** The plain part of Emaze you could make: templates and surveys. What surrounds it you could not. The 3 things listed below take a company, not a weekend. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 34 of the 51 other presentation tools grade higher.

- You could make: Templates and surveys: an app builder makes these well.
- You could not: A slide editor.
- You could not: A tracking script and a database that counts every visit.
- You could not: Several people working in it at the same moment.
