Recensioni su Poll Everywhere

Great Survey builder and also for polls

Commenti: I have had a great overall experience using poll anywhere, and I use it to build effective polls. Several users create polls and surveys using the poll everywhere.

Aspetti positivi:

My favourite aspect of Poll everywhere is that it can be used to design effective polls. The user interface is quite straightforward, easy to use, and beginner friendly. It makes the process of making polls seamless. Other applications can be integrated with it.

Aspetti negativi:

As poll Perfect is the most popular of the others, I can't think of any drawbacks.

Great product

Commenti: Overall a great experience, I have been using this software for about 2 years now and I continue to use it. The students love it as well as it helps them to assess their learning within the class.

Aspetti positivi:

Is of use and that it can be used with mobile devices. Easy to update poll questions.

Aspetti negativi:

The polls deactivate after a while so each time the class is run I have to go in and activate the polls I am going to use that semester. Maybe this is because I am using the free version of the software.

Poll Everywhere makes it easy to get your audience engaged.

Commenti: Great software that is really user friendly.

Aspetti positivi:

Poll Everywhere was one of the first "text in" polling options available and I was an early adopter. I work on a college campus and I have used the software for everything from allowing students to text in their vote at a talent show to polling the audience during a talk to incoming students. Poll Everywhere allows for seamless connection to presentation software so you can easily integrate your polls into your slide deck. It's also easy for the audience to send in their response, even if they've never used the program. Finally, the realtime polls allow you to get instant feedback, so you know what your audience is thinking.

Aspetti negativi:

I don't have many complaints with Poll Everywhere. I would say that they need some improvements in the their pricing options, but this is minor. The only adjustment I would like to see is a smaller price tag for a one time event.

Great for polling large audiences, but lacks an intuitive design.

Aspetti positivi:

The price is the biggest pro in our mind. The software package is inexpensive to begin with, and they allow for organization-wide use under one account, so everyone can have their own username profile. Beyond the price, the ability to allow respondents to text in their poll choices is really fantastic. Users don't need anything other than a web-enabled device or cell phone to take part in the polls. This makes it very easy to get responses from an audience that may be a mix of novice and experienced tech users. The types of questions you can choose from (multiple choice, free text, etc.) is pretty standard, but the way you can view the responses is really impressive. For example, you can make real-time word clouds from the audiences responses (and, yes, you can filter our swear words!).

Aspetti negativi:

We've found that the program itself lacks quite a bit of intuitive design (you really have to hunt around for the features to edit your polls) and the functionality is quite limited.

Easy to create & implement, not as easy for users

Commenti: It was a great free option for small meeting engagment, but not optimal for large groups and not super easy for participants to join.

Aspetti positivi:

The competition feature of the live poll and the multiple options for participant responses.

Aspetti negativi:

The difficulty participants have getting into the poll & using the app. I often get confused people who take time to join. Also the fact that I cannot moderate competitions easily from my app, and that participants can't see leaderboard in between questions on their app.

Poll review

Commenti: Everything was really great to be honest it is very useful to everybody.

Aspetti positivi:

It has a sense of urgency and you will be able to come up with the result on the time that you wanted. It was considered a nice tool for making a big group decision distantly it will allow every participant to share their sides through voting.

Aspetti negativi:

Like least about the poll is that it cannot send information to everybody that they need to mandatorily cooperate to come up with an accurate result during the collecting of votes or responses.

Flexible Polling Solution to Meet Most Needs

Commenti: Our organization uses Poll Everywhere constantly. The heaviest users are faculty and students, where polls are conducted in courses throughout the semester. Our staff also uses it as a fun way to crowdsource ideas at department meetings.

Aspetti positivi:

The solution is easy to use, offers many question types and is very accessible since anyone with an IP-enabled device and browser can participate in the polls.

Aspetti negativi:

We'll occasionally struggle to frame a poll question into one of the available question types. It's not a huge issue - usually it just forces us to break the question up. Unfortunately, this can impact the reporting later on.

Good integration with PowerPoint and Google Sheets, but competitors have better design

Commenti: It's made live polling of students within lectures quick and effective, and as a result has improved student engagement in our lectures.

Aspetti positivi:

Very well integrated into PowerPoint and (to a slightly lesser extent) Google Sheets. It's easy to do live polling of your audience and there are multiple ways for users to vote (website with code, SMS, etc.) The interface is quick and reactive, but visually other competitors have a better interface (i.e. MentiMeter).

Aspetti negativi:

Downloading and installing the PowerPoint & Google Sheets plugins (.exe files) was a bit tricky but it did work without admin privileges on my PC. Tweaking the poll and display settings was complicated and I had to read the manual to get support.

Great Learning Tool!

Aspetti positivi:

- super easy to use - easy download and set up

Aspetti negativi:

- the link names are long so hard to get set up the first time

Great interactive tool

Commenti: Positive experience using Poll Everywhere.

Aspetti positivi:

I have been using Poll everywhere for a few years now and really enjoy it. It costs me nothing and it enhances my presentations.

Aspetti negativi:

Wish it looked a little nicer but that is not a deterrent.

Perfect for the Classroom

Commenti: This software is perfect for the classroom setting. It allows for professor-student interaction even in large class settings. The application allows students to review polls that have been issued in the past as well, allowing for effective study of concepts that were tested in class. I would highly recommend sying this software to improve education.

Aspetti positivi:

I am currently a medical student, and my professors have used this software in the classroom to check for understanding and quiz the class. This has been very effective at providing effective testing for students and also for helping professors gauge class understanding. I also appreciate that questions which have been asked to the class are stored within the software so that I can go back and review questions that have been asked before exams. This software helps students succeed and helps educators interact effectively with class members.

Aspetti negativi:

I had very few issues with this software. The only complaint I have is that the Android application sometimes fails to update polls and I am forced to leave and rejoin the session in order to see polls being offered. I did not notice the same issue on iOS.

Excellent for polling large classrooms and crowds, but has a steep learning curve for user

Aspetti positivi:

I love that this software can easily integrate anyone with a smartphone into a lecture or talk. It is remarkable that you can see live results of a quiz question, survey, or poll displayed in an embedded way in a powerpoint, and this definitely contributes to improved learning in a lecture setting.

Aspetti negativi:

When I have gone to make poll everywhere slides myself, it took me quite a while to figure it out. The computer app is not good and it almost requires you to make all of your slides on the internet. Moreover, it was not immediately clear to me how to convert slides/polls from one type of question to another, and I continually had to start over with a new question type instead of easily toggling the question type on an already created question.

Dynamic Audience Participation!

Commenti: I used Poll Everywhere to solicit audience participation during a presentation. It was very popular and I received praise from multiple attendees afterwards that they liked the novelty of being able to text a response, and that they felt more engaged. Technically, it worked without any difficulty and it was seamless. I look forward to using Poll Everywhere in the future!

Aspetti positivi:

The ability to easily integrate live audience responses into a presentation. I also appreciate how simple it is to customize the software for your specific needs; there are tons of options to tweak the type of responses, how many responses are allowed, the time frame for collecting data, and how it is displayed. The web interface is easy to use, but I also appreciate having the ability to download a desktop version to integrate with presentation software.

Aspetti negativi:

There is a slight learning curve to figuring out how to best set up questions. You can only collect responses for one question at a time, so managing this can be challenging at first. However, the software offers many ways to change it including timers, so it's easily manageable.

Fun way to get audience participation during presentations

Commenti: We have used this during presentations to make audience participation fun and more quantitative than asking people to raise their hands.

Aspetti positivi:

Easy to use, install and vote anonymously on questions during presentations. Makes audience participation fun and interesting with real-time voting statistics during the presentation.

Aspetti negativi:

I personally enjoy using it but I can see how people who are shy may not want to participate during meetings and so they may find this application burdensome.

Poll Everywhere for Training Engagement

Aspetti positivi:

Poll Everywhere is a great and easy to use tool to help build engagement in training. It was great to be able to have team members be able to use their phone to answer questions, and see their results live on screen once the poll closed! There is also a lot of variety of types of polls you can do (i.e. choice, word clouds, etc.)

Aspetti negativi:

There are some limitations to how many users can answer poll questions (depending on the package/level you choose). It's important to test this because it was not clear at first.

Review of Poll Everywhere

Commenti: Poll everywhere is an interactive voting application that provides the student with immediate feedback on responses and offers immediate interaction.

Aspetti positivi:

Poll everywhere is a simple and effective alternative to a similar application as a turningpoint. Poll everywhere does not require a complicated configuration and the display of the results in real time and in response size is a welcome feature.

Aspetti negativi:

Unfortunately, I didn't use Poll everywhere enough to find failures in it. Maybe he doesn't have one after all.

Effective interactive live audience participation tool

Aspetti positivi:

I love Poll Everywhere as an interactive piece for presentations, anywhere from small presentations to my direct team, or having participated in larger town hall presentations where surveys are done live. Anytime you can use instant input to garner some buzz about some topic, you'll immediately get everyone's attention. The app is easy to use, interface works well, and company buy-in is convincing.

Aspetti negativi:

I would like to see PE push the envelope in terms of adding layers of complexity to its surveying ability. Perhaps some sort of stratification among demographics that you user profiles could dictate.

Great tool for large meetings

Commenti: Very quick and easy to create and setup polling for a presentation of any size. People love the interactivity it brings to otherwise dull presentations.

Aspetti positivi:

Easy to setup and use. User friendly for the admin as well as the participants. Voting is really easy from a computer or a mobile device.

Aspetti negativi:

Would be nice to be able to configure more. Nicer graphics (looks quite a bit outdated), a little more flexibility on how to display results would be nice as well

Great for teachers, professors, training sessions etc.

Commenti: Keep your audience active, engaged and attentive.

Aspetti positivi:

Poll Everywhere does a great job of keeping people (whether that be students or people in a training session or meeting active and engaged). You really can't ask for much more than that.

Aspetti negativi:

Not really too many cons I can think of here...it would be nice if the free version offered deletion, but not really a huge issue for a small scale trainings I have used it for.

What a fun way to involve audiences

Commenti: Large audiences need to feel connected to the presenter, and this software app makes that easy.

Aspetti positivi:

Simple and fast for audiences to engage at a conference.

Aspetti negativi:

The download experience for each user is different to get set up, but once set up it is streamlined.

Fast to use

Commenti: Overall, I would say my experience with Poll Everywhere has been positive and I will continue to use this software.

Aspetti positivi:

What I like most about Poll Everywhere is how fast it is to create a poll and use the poll. This software really does save me a lot of time.

Aspetti negativi:

I cannot think of what I like least about this software because it is a very good software and I enjoy using it.

Simple App

Aspetti positivi:

It is a good app to get a simple opinion in a short amount of time.

Aspetti negativi:

Very simple app, which could also mean boring layout.

Poll Everywhere is a helpful tool that keeps your presentations interactive in an easy-to-use format

Aspetti positivi:

Poll Everywhere is easy to use, allows for multiple polls to be taken, helps audiences see responses in real-time, and keeps presentations interactive.

Aspetti negativi:

On one occasion there were some challenges in integrating it with Mac programs. This wasn't Poll Everywhere's issue, but Mac's.

Poll Everywhere should be Everywhere!

Commenti: We have had a great experience with Poll Everywhere, and plan to continue using the product.

Aspetti positivi:

We use Poll Everywhere for our school, and the students love it. It is such an engaging tool, that provides great real-time feedback.

Aspetti negativi:

Sometimes the tool will be delayed, and that can take a little time away from our class instruction time.

Such a COOL application for presentations

Aspetti positivi:

In an academic setting this is such an awesome application. You can either load the extension to your internet browser or into googleslides presentation. Makes for interactive presentations and fun lectures

Aspetti negativi:

Very unique application. Cant compare it to anything else really
