Each in one sentence

Mentimeter

Mentimeter is a presentation tool with live polls, quizzes and audience Q&A, plus recurring team check-ins and, since September 2026, forms in every account.15

Verbalu

Verbalu is a training platform: the live session with quizzes, polls, games and simulations, plus what comes before and after it: sign-ups with reminders, a self-paced course and a knowledge base with quizzes.

When to choose which

Mentimeter is the better fit when…

  • you present in PowerPoint and want polls right in your slides: the PowerPoint add-in (desktop app) comes with every plan9
  • your meetings run in Teams or Zoom and you want an app inside the call: both apps come with every plan10
  • you run a conference for thousands: up to 20,000 participants in one presentation, and 30-day conference plans you pay for once67
  • procurement wants a vendor at scale: Mentimeter launched in 2012, reports 500+ million users and offers SSO on Enterprise2119

Verbalu is the better fit when…

  • your training has a before and an after: a sign-up page with approval and reminders, a self-paced course, a knowledge base with quizzes (we found no courses or learning paths among Mentimeter's products)16
  • you want team games and simulations, and teams competing in the quiz (Mentimeter describes a workaround: one device per team)14
  • you regularly train groups of up to 30: Verbalu's free plan limits each session, not each month34
  • you'd rather pay monthly for the whole organization than yearly for every presenter12
  • you want your logo on participants' screens without Mentimeter Pro at €28 per presenter a month, billed yearly81
