Chose Slido
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 …
Chose Slido
Slido offers better payment plans than the others, but Kahoot is more interactive and better suited for in-person events. Slido has better UI/UX than Mentimeter.
Chose Slido
Slido can be easily integrated with Google calendar and slack which helps to improve audience engagement from integrated apps.
Chose Slido
Overall Slido does a good job. Google slides and PowerPoint both need to be integrated with other tools like Polleverywhere, or other tools that add in the engagement features. Otherwise, users will need to create the slides themselves, without the "live" tracking. Overall it …
Chose Slido
The real-time polling and Q&A features are seamless. Participants can ask questions and vote on them, allowing for dynamic interaction during presentations. Plus, Slido integrates well with popular presentation tools like
Chose Slido
Slido is comparatively more intuitive wherein UI is quite easy to use and follow. Also it has broad mix of poll types available which allows to run multiple types of polls. It has more intergration compared to other alternatives and reporting is quite detailed too. And, I love …
Chose Slido
Slido beats Zoom’s built-in polling by offering more interactive features like live Q&A and detailed polls. It works smoothly with Zoom, making webinars more engaging. I chose Slido because it makes meetings more interactive and allows for better audience participation.


Chose Slido
Kahoot feels more like a kids game and I've used it for fun events, it doesn't feel appropriate for a professional setting or workshop. It also doesn't integrate right into Google slides as a seamless part of the presentation.
Chose Slido
Slido is an easier "out of the box" experience. I would equate Slido to being something a 5th grader could use....as opposed to SurveyMonkey possibly needing a 12th grader. This is not to lighten the experience....it simply means that Slido will be more approachable by a …
Chose Slido
We chose Slido for its real-time engagement, seamless integration, and effective Q&A management, making it ideal for company-wide meetings and training sessions.
Chose Slido
It is easier to use, has better interaction, and has a Q&A platform. Slido has an anonymous Q&A feature which Microsoft doesn't have.
Chose Slido
Because its more cost effective and as well as it has a great user interface which helps better user and software engagement compared to other software. Quite happy with them and the way they have several features in the software. Secondly, it's efficient and reliable compared …
Chose Slido
I was not involved in the selection of Slido. But yes I like it.
Chose Slido
Slido has various upsides when compared to Kahoot or Quizizz. Firstly, Slido offers live video integration so people don't have to switch tabs to interact with us during events or webinars. Secondly, Slido has multiple options like MCQs, rating and ranking for polls which …
Chose Slido
As we already work with Cisco that was a big bonus in our decision. But otherwise Slido presented itself as the best candidate as we were already used to it and provided great value, as well it provided integration with other products we use out of the box. And provided …
Chose Slido
I was familiar with Kahoot in the participant view and was actually very fond of it. When Slido became a part of the Cisco Webex offer, I was thrilled to be in a Win-Win position, since I already was a Cisco Webex user and from that point forward, Slido is my engagement tool!
Chose Slido
Before Slido we used in build functionality and tried to customize something in Miro & Figma. Slido is much easier to use and also the in-build analytics are worth using it.
Chose Slido
The template options Slido offers. It's easy to use, and very user-friendly You can display live responses. You can interact real-time through Slido.
Chose Slido
Monday did not have the option to do surveys in real time and combine the results live.
Chose Slido
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 …
Chose Slido
I think it is the only tool that supports Slovenian language. Slido is working so well, we didn't really consider using other tools, but I see them used in similar scenarios. We are also unlikely to change due to GDPR. We know Slido is still based in Slovakia (although sold to …

User Testimonials
SlidoStreamAlive
Likelihood to Recommend
It’s particularly suitable for large meetings and town halls, where it can run live polls and make the meeting more interactive. For less formal scenarios, such as small meetings and quick calls, or when the public is not particularly tech-savvy. All in all, it’s a great tool that can fit in a bunch of scenarios.

I recently had the opportunity to use StreamAlive for my webinar sessions, and I must say I am thoroughly impressed. The ease of use is remarkable – it's intuitive and user-friendly, allowing me to set up my webinars without a hitch. The software's seamless integration with Zoom is a standout feature, ensuring a smooth experience for both myself and my participants. The interactive aspect of StreamAlive is where it truly shines. The ability to create real-time interaction with my audience has taken my webinars to the next level. I particularly love the interactive world map feature; it not only engages my audience but also adds a touch of sophistication and a cutting-edge feel to my presentations.

Cons
  • 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 ease of use above everything else@ The power of questions used in such a user-friendly way. The fact that everybody now has a cell phone allows this tool to be used everywhere and in all kinds of group interactions. The sheer joy of seeing the results on your phone right away! Transparency rules!

Usability
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

Support Rating
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. This was not an automated chatbot and the direct contact really helped me

Online Training
I find that training is very informative as it helps understanding the software usages and implementation. 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.
