Price
If you are a teacher purchasing the account for just your students then you will have to buy a monthly account. The cost is adjusted for the number of students you have. The cost per student goes down as your number of students goes up. For 100 students, the cost is a little under $20 a month. If a school or district is purchasing the account, they are able to purchase an annual account for $1.75 per student.
Access
Pixton is accessible through any web browser and can be accessed on phones, tablets, and computers. Pixton offers a free app for smartphone or tablet use. The website does not specify if there is a preferred browser to use.
Ease of Use
Pixton is very easy to use. It is relatively intuitive when constructing comics because all of the icons have images indicating what they do. For example the icon with a face can be clicked to add a character. Similarly, click the icon with an picture on it to add a background image. The Pixton website has a tutorial that runs the first time you access the program. You can also access the tutorial through the help center by clicking on the question mark icon at the bottom. In the help center you will also find videos on how to do various things on the website and an FAQ section. You can also directly contact the owners from the help center.
For teachers, there are a ton of resources. You are able to create your own assignments or borrow from pre-existing ones. There are a variety of layouts to suit your instructional needs including timelines, mind maps, and storyboards. Pixton also allows for a lot of creativity. You can upload your own images for the background, you also have direct access to creative commons images.

In My opinion the tool is a good way to engage students in the learning experience. Also it provides ease for educators by covering wide topics and having a library from where teachers can directly pick the activities. Comic-building tools are unbelievably easy to use and simple click-and-drag actions let users create and customize all parts of their comic. Users can even upload photos to their comic or just pop through to Flickr commons and borrow one there.
