Free Mentimeter alternative for Indian corporate trainers

Why Mentimeter's free plan runs out for trainers

Mentimeter’s free plan gives you 50 participants a month, shared across every presentation, plus one session a month with no cap. Quizotic’s free plan gives you 50 participants in every session, with no monthly total, so a teacher with five classes a week never runs out. Mentimeter’s paid plans are billed yearly (Basic is $11.99 per presenter per month on its US price list and €14 on the list it shows visitors from India, checked 25 Sep 2026). In practice, a trainer running three 25-person workshops a week fills the month's pool with the first two; the third crosses the limit and is allowed to finish, and after that nothing can go live until the reset date.

Feature parity for the everyday training session

Single-choice and multi-choice polls, word clouds, open-ended responses, rating scales, ranking and anonymous Q&A with upvoting — Mentimeter, Slido, AhaSlides and Quizotic all have these. Mentimeter has more polished templates and animations; Quizotic adds full quiz mechanics on top — scored questions, a leaderboard, a speed bonus and team mode — so a workshop can end with a knowledge check in the same session as the polls. For most everyday L&D sessions the four are interchangeable on features, and the free plan decides.

What Quizotic's free plan includes — and what it doesn't

The free plan seats 50 people in every session, with no monthly total and no card. It keeps 3 saved presentations of up to 20 slides each and 10 saved quizzes, reports for your last 3 sessions, 10 AI-written questions a month (20 in your first week) and 10 PDF report downloads a month. Excel export, scheduled quizzes and PPTX import are Pro features, and Pro is planned at $4.99/month (₹399/month in India) and not yet on sale. For a trainer who reuses one workshop deck every week, one saved presentation is enough; for a library of decks, it is not.

When to stay on Mentimeter

If your global parent company has standardised on Mentimeter; if you have invested in templates and branded themes that do not port; if you present to rooms of hundreds every week and can pay for a year up front; or if your audiences are global and know the Mentimeter brand. For India-based trainers running workshops of up to 50 every week, a free plan that resets every session usually beats a free plan that counts by the month.

Paying for it

Mentimeter bills in US dollars or euros depending on your region, by card or PayPal, for a year at a time; Pro can also be invoiced for bank transfer. There is nothing to pay today: Quizotic is free, and the planned Pro plan is not on sale yet. When it launches it will bill in INR with UPI and a domestic GST invoice in India, and in USD by card elsewhere.
