SMART Notebook to Google Slides: Convert Free Online

From proprietary files to modern presentations in minutes, not hours.

The Challenge of Moving Away from SMART Notebook

As schools transition to more flexible, cloud-based teaching platforms, thousands of educators face a critical challenge: years of carefully crafted SMART Notebook lessons are trapped in a proprietary format. Whether your school is phasing out SMART Boards, moving to Google Workspace for Education, or simply seeking more collaborative teaching tools, you need a way to preserve your valuable educational content.

The problem? SMART Notebook doesn't offer a straightforward export to modern presentation formats. Manual conversion means recreating each lesson from scratch—a process that can take hours per file and risks losing interactive elements, carefully designed layouts, and educational flow.

How Smart-Notebook-to-Slides.com Works

Transform conversion into a simple three-step process

Upload Your Files: Simply drag and drop your .notebook files into our secure upload area. No software installation required—everything happens in your browser.

Choose Your Output Format: Select whether you want Google Slides for seamless collaboration and cloud storage, PowerPoint for offline presentations and compatibility, or PDF for easy sharing and archiving.

Download and Use: Within minutes, receive your converted files with layouts, text, and images preserved. Your teaching materials are instantly ready for your new platform.

Pricing Plans That Fit Every Educator

We believe in transparent, educator-friendly pricing with no hidden fees. Our Free Tier offers 5 conversions total with basic file format support and email support—perfect for teachers who want to test the service or have just a handful of critical lessons to convert.

The Pro Plan at $20 provides 150 conversions total with bulk upload capability (up to 10 files at once) and priority support. This is our most popular choice for individual teachers.

Our Ultra Plan at $50 includes 5,000 conversions total, zip folder uploads, and premium support—perfect for department heads managing curriculum transitions. For schools and districts, our Enterprise plan offers unlimited conversions, SSO integration, custom integrations, and dedicated support teams with volume discounts.

The Power of Bulk Conversion

One of our most powerful features is bulk conversion capability available in Pro plans and above. Instead of converting files one by one, you can upload multiple files simultaneously (up to 10 in Pro, unlimited in Ultra/Enterprise), maintain folder structure with zip uploads (Ultra and Enterprise), convert entire curriculum units in minutes, and track conversion progress with our real-time dashboard.

This makes smart-notebook-to-slides.com the ideal solution for managed IT transitions where entire departments or schools need to migrate their content efficiently.

Your converted files are optimized for modern platforms: Google Slides files upload seamlessly to Google Drive, PowerPoint files work perfectly with Office 365, and PDFs are compressed for easy email sharing.

Getting started is risk-free with no software installation, no learning curve, no commitment, and instant results with most files converting in under 60 seconds.

Smart-Notebook-to-Slides.com Service Questions

What is the most efficient way to convert SMART Notebook files?
Professional conversion services offer the most efficient approach, handling the technical complexity while preserving educational content. Web-based tools eliminate software installation requirements and can process multiple files simultaneously, converting an entire lesson library in minutes rather than the weeks manual conversion would require.
How do I convert SMART Notebook files to Google Slides?
The most reliable method uses specialized conversion services that understand educational content structure. These tools maintain formatting, preserve multimedia elements, and convert proprietary .notebook files into fully editable Google Slides presentations. Manual conversion through screenshots and rebuilding is extremely time-consuming and often loses important formatting.
Can I convert multiple SMART Notebook files at once?
Yes, batch conversion is available through professional conversion services. Instead of processing files individually, you can upload multiple files or even zip folders containing your entire lesson library. This approach scales efficiently whether you have 10 files or 500.
What formats can SMART Notebook files be converted to?
Professional conversion tools typically support multiple output formats: Google Slides for cloud-based collaboration and sharing, PowerPoint for Microsoft Office compatibility, and PDF for universal document sharing. The choice depends on your school's technology ecosystem and collaboration needs.
How much does it cost to convert SMART Notebook files professionally?
Professional conversion services often offer tiered pricing: free trials for testing (typically 5 conversions), individual teacher plans ($20 for 150 conversions), department plans ($50 for thousands of conversions), and enterprise solutions for districts. This approach is far more cost-effective than the hundreds of hours manual conversion would require.
Will professional conversion preserve my lesson formatting and interactivity?
Quality conversion services focus on preserving educational content structure, maintaining text formatting, image positioning, and slide organization. While some proprietary SMART Notebook widgets may not transfer directly, the core visual design and educational flow that make lessons effective are typically preserved well.
How long does professional SMART Notebook file conversion take?
Professional conversion is dramatically faster than manual methods—most files process in under a minute each. Batch processing can handle entire curriculum libraries in under an hour, compared to the weeks or months manual conversion would require. The time savings alone justifies the service cost for most educators.
