Gallup Access vs. Slido

I used Gallup Access for the CliftonStrengths assessment and I do believe it was a great platform for that to be on. However, it took me a second to figure out if I was on the correct website. I'm not sure how, but being able to easily see that taking the assessment on this website would be super helpful. I think I struggled with it because CliftonStrengths book was red and white and the website is black and green. Colors are important when people are looking for certain products.

Slido is great to use for live meetings, whether in person or via video conference; we mostly use this for Zoom meetings. You can use the different features at different times in your meeting: I love to start our All Hands meetings with a word cloud or a poll of some kind, and as people are joining via zoom it gets people feeling excited and connected even before we've started. It also gives us something fun to talk about while we're waiting for everyone to arrive and for the meeting to start. You can do a poll halfway through to keep people engaged, and then a poll at the end to see how you did, or maybe use the Q&A to see what questions come up without having the awkward zoom silence when you ask if anyone has any questions. I don't think this is helpful in smaller meetings, where people likely feel more comfortable interacting directly and asking questions verbally.

• The Slido overview is very helpful for us to understand the engagement level of our audience during the meeting.
• The multiple options to get feedback, answers, to interact with the audience (i.e., Live poll, Audience Q&A). The templates library is brilliant!
• The possibility to answer and ask to questions and provide feedback anonymously.

• I want a drop down button available in all parts of the website on the upper left hand corner
• I'd love to see major companies that use Gallup Access - might have more of a desire to use the website if name brands are on there

Incentivized

• Pricing Model - free version is quite limited and the package prices can be more attractive for SME companies
• User Interface Complexity - the UX in the backend is good, but sometimes I am confused to find a specific function
• Real time translation would be great in terms of accessibility

Slido has one of the most intuitive Dashboards I've ever seen. It's easy to use and easy to manage. I've extensively used Polls and Quizzes and it works like a charm, every time.

The communication I've had directly from Slido was very professional and sets an excellent impression for the tone of the company.

GA is a very professional tool, in my past experience, other platforms had felt very lacking, they cover what is needed but GA has really lived up to the expectations, I was surprised by what it does and then some more, there are still some aspects that need more polishing but you get over them with time.

It's as simple as just Microsoft Word Visual Basic. We used to use that. Just a lot more cumbersome with the program and setup. Can be buggy depending on the browser operating system that you're running it on. Nothing specific for surveys. This was the first one we got that's officially for a survey that I know of. I've been there for about five years.

Incentivized

• I can't give numbers yet but we have been able to split our most recent project up based on our strengths outlined by cliftonstrengths
• Another positive impact is that we were able to bond as a team, we just got jumbled up and put on a new team so the ability to connect with our manager was really awesome

Incentivized

• It helps us keep participants' attention during online workshops, which can be long and tiring.
• Slido is a lightweight – it doesn't take forever to load – and intuitive tool, which has been encouraging user participation.
• The learning curve of the tool is very low, which does not discourage users.
