    All of these mentioned tools are great! However, Mentimeter is kind of an allrounder tool. First of all it's easy to use and anyone can login quickly and participate in the quiz/survey/QnA. Gamification is quite good, I really like the live world cloud visualisation which makes …

    Mentimeter is very useful for continuous engagements and follow ups during webinars, seminars, team meetings, online classes and surveys. Even during offfline conferences it could be well suited for increasing the interactivity. However, it could be less effective when the audience size is too small like a group meeting or video conferencing with friends and family

    How was it well suited to me? - The leaderboard and freedom to edit the quiz. The fastest finger quiz to announce the winner based on fairness. The ease of login through QR Scanner. Also, it did not pinch my pocket at all. The best part is this $25 earning opportunity via feedback :-). And the list goes on... The less appropriate part was mentioned earlier in ways that I see improvements with Slido, coming to utilize Slido everywhere and in various ways. Overall, I love the AI suggestions.

    • I miss the Slack integration; they used to have this and they deprecated it in the last year or so.
    • I believe they have a nice integration for PowerPoint, would be nice if they had something similar with google slides since that is what we typically use internally.
    • We use the word cloud feature often and sometimes answers seem to get lost (as in don't show up at all) on the screen. for example, an answer will be there, then as more answers come in it disappears, and when we get to a certain threshold of answers it somehow pops back up again. It's not the worst but sometimes someone will ping me that their submission didn't make the word cloud and they're bummed.

    The user interface is really simple to get started with, anyone can start using it. The simplicity might somewhat limit the set of features, but there are some advanced features hidden deeper down in the user interface that you can find once you're up and running and want to start improving your presentations

    Overall, it is a handy tool. We do not use it too often in meetings; we started using it creatively for quizzes and Q&A with radio/TV audiences. Producers or Sponsors often explicitly request the option to include this particular type of interaction, and we are happy to do so. It helps that the setup is easy, so is copying events, etc. I sometimes miss Switcher (for our live events), but I understand the reasons it was phased out

    I had to use the support for this tool only once. The response was very rapid, very professional and fulfilled my needs immediately. Online support services are sometimes advertised only to lure people into buying the product but and non-existent or difficult to use afterwards. Not with Slido.

It gives the usgaes area and how to create gamification and live Q&A section so that you can use in live team meetings and workshops. It is very useful in training and webinars where a large pool of people are there.

    The other tool used in our company for live poll is Zoom because of its direct compatibility with Zoom calls. Mentimeter is more interactive in terms of poll questions and its biggest advantage is wordcloud. However, it being an an external tool for a conference app, it is sometimes less preferred.

    I find Slido a bit easier to use than Poll Everywhere and other live polling software that I've used. While other software offers similar features, I've found that Slido's setup is a bit more intuitive and makes it easier to duplicate polls you've made for reuse. You get the most bang for your buck with Slido's basic plan compared to other polling software's basic tier.
