My Take
Pear Deck is incredibly user-friendly and offers many free tools. It is easy to embed questions into a slide, and joining the class group is very easy for students. They create a summary of performance at the end of a session as well, which helps review students' progress. For people comfortable with Google Slides, this program is very easy to use to elevate your slidedecks.
How I Use It
I have used Pear Deck in various educational settings as both the student and educator. Embedding questions throughout slides helps to check for knowledge and gain participation and feedback from all students, rather than just the ones that voice their opinions.

Fantastic to use for any type of training or lessons but Pear Deck has access to copy, delete and download your slides once installed
Amazing add-on to google slide but google privacy clearly identifies that Pear Deck (I have only used their free version) can access your slides and sheets (they can delete, download, copy your slides), they can share your data with third parties.
So sadly I have now stopped using it and would be interested to hear if there are any other more secure add ons out there.

PearDeck on Deck
I thought this was a pretty effective teaching tool. However, I thought it didn't necessarily allow for students to expand on class topics unless the lesson is created that way in the program.
