Why Teachers Switch From Knowt
Common frustrations that bring users to SimpleQuizMaker
AI features are bolted on
Knowt grew as a Quizlet clone first. AI quiz generation feels secondary to the import-and-flashcard workflow.
Flashcard-format quizzes
Most "quizzes" are flashcards in different modes. True multi-format question banks are limited.
No real per-question analytics
You see overall accuracy, but not per-question difficulty across users.
No teacher/classroom mode
Designed for individual students. Shareable links exist, but submission tracking and classroom analytics don't.
