Overall Satisfaction with Slido
We use Slido to increase engagement and participation in meetings. Specifically, we use this in every company-wide All Hands meeting, and also in many other larger group meetings. Especially when they are more than a handful of meeting attendees via Zoom, it's easy for people to check out, and we find that Slido helps to keep people involved!
- In-meeting polling
- In-meeting Q&A
- In-meeting engagement
- 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.
- Word clouds
- Polling
- Q&A
- We leave each All Hands meeting with a snapshot of whatever fun topic we picked for our word cloud or poll; sometimes these snowball into conversations via Slack after the meeting which helps our employees feel connected and engaged!
- Zoom and Mentimeter
Zoom's polling is super basic and very limited. it gives you the ability to run polls but lacks the dynamic nature of Slido where we can run contests, word clouds, and different types of polls. Also, zoom's design is very basic and looks like what it is: in-meeting polling. Slido is bright and eye-catching and doesn't look like business as usual! Mentimeter is much more similar to Slido and I think has a lot of similarities, but their free version (last I checked) limits the number of polls/questions you can use at once which I've seen leads to participants having to enter in a new code for each poll. Slido's free plan gives you 3 polls per event which is usually all we need, and once participants have logged in to the first poll/question they are already there for the rest!
