Cool
- Both sites offer free basic accounts with the ability to add users to sub-accounts or licenses.
- Both sites are very user friendly with simple tools much like those in Microsoft Word.
- Both sites are easy to manage with tools that will allow you to track changes and even revert back to previous versions of the page (you know, in cases where little Bobby goes in and "edits" little Suzie's page)
- Both sites can be used in thousands of ways, from creating class note sharing and club web pages to personal e-portfolios and group projects.
- Both sites allow you to make your site private and open only to users with permission as well as to make it so private that only people with the exact link can view it.
- PBWorks will allow you to batch upload users and create sub accounts for students (sadly, Wikispaces does not)
- PBWorks has a more modern theme selection that Wikispaces
- Wikispaces requires you to upload users individually when creating student accounts, though if they have an email of their own you can require they join on their own by requesting permission and signing up on their own with the site.
- PBWorks has a lot of nice premium upgrades that are only available if you purchase an account upgrade, but the basic education account works well and I have yet to require more space or any of the other premium services.
