Domestika is very well-suited to the business and creative worlds today. They offer relevant, good quality courses.. Why they've chosen to use fraudulent business practices doesn't make any sense to me since they have a good product.
The reasons to use Poll Everywhere: 1. Get rid of those clickers! They eat batteries, need constant maintenance, and ofter walk off at a monetary loss. 2. The pricing model is really easy to manage, the campus/company license will pay for itself even if you only have 5-10 active users. 3. Stop fighting mobile devices in your classroom and start leveraging them. Students can't mess around on social media, texting etc if they are in the PE app. Then situations where Poll Everywhere wouldn't work as well: 1. Not great for multiple part, asynchronous polling, or data collection 2. Areas where there is a limited or absent internet connection. 3. Situations where an audience would lack basic technology such as a cell phone or laptop.

It's deceptively simple to use. Showing how to use the features, create & modify questions, and viewing polling data, is much easier than it first seems.
There are a surprising amount of alternate ways to poll users and present questions in more ways than just "Question and 2-4 possible answers." It's pretty easy to customize.
It's very, very, very easy to use as an attendee. There's not anything complex or invasive in order to sign in and vote in polls.

I canceled my subscription after the first year. I have an email that my subscription was cancelled, my account also says the subscription was canceled, yet they charged me $349 for renewal.
I originally paid for a one-year subscription via PayPal. Although I canceled the renewal before the term ended, the company bypassed my PayPal account entirely and charged my linked credit card directly for a second year. Because this transaction was processed outside of PayPal’s system, PayPal has no record of the charge and cannot assist with a dispute. I am reaching out to resolve this unauthorized direct charge immediately.
They make it difficult to connect with customer service. It sends you to statements that basically say they don't issue refunds. It's very dicey how this is set up.

I am giving them a 1. I can't get past the fact that they charged me for a second year even though I didn't renew my subscription. I have access to all the classes I purchased, and that's all I need. I can't give you any more positive feedback than I have because I'm so disappointed in how they handle customer service. Thousands of people have had the same experience.
Other than Google Forms (which I utilize heavily, but for different reasons and during different areas) I find Poll Everywhere to be the best at what it offers and does. Options to lock questions, hide or show responses, varying questions/response types, and the ability to let users respond via text message on their phone or through the website/app increase the functionality of the program. The is also the ability to be creative and change poll/question backgrounds, colors and layouts as well as attach/embed images.
