MathType vs Virtual Keyboard

Based on the data on this page, MathType is the stronger choice for most Google Workspace Marketplace admins — 3.9★ vs Virtual Keyboard's 3.1★ is a meaningful gap that usually reflects real product or support quality differences across the user base.

Pricing entry tiers: MathType at Free of charge trial, Virtual Keyboard at Free of charge. Check each app's tier structure for the capacity limits you actually need before deciding — the headline number is the same shape, but the gating shape per tier (seats, usage volume, integrations) varies.

MathType has the larger user base (2,435 reviews vs 479), which usually maps to broader integration coverage, faster bug-fix cadence, and a deeper bench of community workflow patterns. Virtual Keyboard's smaller cohort can be an advantage for niche workflows where the bigger app has accumulated bloat.

Recommended by size: small/early-stage admins who need fast install and low risk should default to MathType; mid-market and enterprise admins with specific feature requirements should evaluate both — Virtual Keyboard's 479-review base may include the workflow context that matches your specific use case better than MathType's broader-but-shallower coverage.
