Which Plan is for me?
You should choose the Plan depending on how you want to use Explain Everything and if you want to share it with others.
Note If you’re going to use Explain Everything in a web browser only, keep in mind that any project that you create is a cloud one, therefore it’s kept in your Explain Drive. However, you can download it locally and delete it from the cloud library in terms of having more free space for further projects.
These are examples of use-cases that can help you to choose:
- I’m a private tutor and I have a group of students that I want to work with.
Choose the Individual & Teams Plan if you know that you will share many projects or videos and collaborate much – it gives you a lot of cloud storage space.
Students don’t have to necessarily have accounts if you don’t need them to work independently on projects (like assignments or homework). Find out more in this FAQ.
- I’m a lecturer and need this software to present and create materials.
Choose the Educator Plan if you usually just share your screen and are going to keep your videos on your local device storage or upload them to external clouds or YouTube.
If you’re going to create many videos and share them easily with Web Video Links, you will probably need more storage space in Explain Drive. You can purchase it here or choose the Individual Plan that offers much more cloud storage space.
- You run business / educational institutions and need to provide the digital whiteboard to your partners/employees.
For those users who receive a profit by using our app, we prefer them to purchase our Team Plan. Our educational offer is provided to teachers and institutions with school budgets.
Depending on the number of teachers or students you want to provide a license with you can choose the Educator Plan with up to 9 seats or the Edu Group Plan.
As for sharing Explain Everything with partners or employees you just want to go for the Team Plan.
- I/we will mostly work online.
Choose the Individual & Teams Plan as it allows you to create many cloud projects and videos by providing you with 20 GB storage space.
- I/we will mostly work in a group.
This means that you will need more space in the Explain Drive, too. Go for Individual & Teams Plan.
- I want to mostly create videos and upload them on YouTube for educational purposes.
The Educator Plan should work fine!
