Comments on Makeshapes in 2026
“The only software I know that packages a workshop so that a host can lead and have live amazing interactions with everyone, everyone participates with their device, sharing their experience. It’s like a group share of learning” Ian, L&D Manager, New Zealand
“Virtual classroom sessions run by anyone not necessarily a professional facilitator – gives consistent results for all learners even if there are multiples sessions” learning consultant, New Zealand
“Full disclosure — this is our own tool. We use it every week to run small-group sessions without needing a skilled facilitator in every room. It’s on the list because it’s how our team actually learns together.” Cody Iddings, Head of Product, USA
