Strengths:

 * Anyone can create a nearpod presentation easily
 * Includes useful tools and engaging aspects like polls, quizzes and drawings
 * Students find it very engaging
 * Your presentations can be open for student access in the evening as homework
 * You can control web page access / surfing from the presentation
 * Company has amazing tech support

Weaknesses:

 * The Gold Account which you will want for the added features and storage is an annual fee
 * Converting ppt files into the presentations is easy, but could be easier.
 * tiered pricing is available

Opportunities:
====**Threats**: works on laptops and iPads and phones, but does limit the number of users that can access at one time to 30. However the company will increase this if contacted for special exceptions like a large assembly for our school.====
 * Teachers and students can interact on curriculum content
 * Off the shelf presentations are available for purchase as well as free ones are available
 * Students can create presentations that are interactive as a replacement for powerpoint for their classmates
