The report card
Best for giving every student their own whiteboard
Whiteboard.fi gives each student a personal whiteboard that the teacher watches live, and students join without an account. Free sessions run out after 2 hours with 20 students, and PDF upload, co-teachers and assignments need Pro at $4.99 a month on yearly billing.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | B | Lite is $2.49 a month on yearly billing and Pro $4.99. But PDF upload, co-teachers and assignments need Pro, which is just under the category's $5 cheaper-quarter start. |
| Free plan and trial | B | Free for 20 students, 1 active session and 2-hour sessions. A teacher can live on that, and a 14-day Premium trial is offered. |
| Features | C | Individual student boards, classroom controls, math tools and saving. It does the classroom job fully, but it's a narrower one than a general whiteboard. |
| Ease of use | C | No store rating on record. Students join by link, code or QR, though the teacher sets up each session. |
| Platforms and integrations | B | Web only, but it signs in through Clever, Kahoot and Google. |
An A is worth 4 points, a B 3, a C 2, a D 1 and an F nothing. The GPA is the average of the five.
