Padlet and Google for Education App Hub
Padlet is proud to be part of the Google for Education App Hub.
With this integration, you can provide Padlet to a specific group of users from the Google for Education Admin console. You can also allow students to log into Padlet using their Google EDU account.
If your school or organization is using Google for Education, you can find out more about Google for Education App Hub here.
If you are interested in provisioning Padlet licenses through the Google for Education App Hub, please contact us at [email protected] or request a demo here.
Padlet for Schools plans have a free trial and are priced per active teacher account. We offer annual school-wide licenses. You can learn more about billing details by requesting a quote here.
We hope this new integration saves admins some time and stress!
