Instead of iClicker
iClicker alternatives
iClicker centers on classroom participation: instructors can run live polls and quizzes, invite anonymous responses, track attendance, and review class performance in a gradebook. Its question formats include short-answer, numeric, target, formula, and symbol questions alongside multiple-choice options. Students can respond on mobile, on the web, or with physical remotes. It also connects with Blackboard, Canvas, Brightspace, and Moodle, and its AI question creator can use uploaded files as context. That mix may be more than a class needs if its main goal is audience interaction during presentations.

The free instructor account does not mean every student can participate at no cost: course enrollment determines whether a subscription is required, and paid plans start at $4.99 per month for U.S. customers. The student app supports Apple and Android phones, while instructor desktop software is available for Windows and Mac. Alternatives differ in audience limits, presentation imports, Q&A, collaboration, and supported platforms. Compare those needs with iClicker's attendance tracking and LMS connections, and check pricing for your location before switching.
