Simple yet very entertaining and user-friendly tool!

5.0 11 months ago

Pros:

I recommend this for creating polls and surveys for both, adults and children. The questions and answers (and points and statistics) are very nicely and neatly displayed and everyone can participate without having to create an account.

Cons:

There is nothing to complain about, this tool works well and can be used for various occasions and audiences.

Great for interaction with my students during class.

Cons:

I'm using the free version and cannot export results. I don't know if it is possible to export results in the paid version

Billing practices challenging - beware

1.0 4 weeks ago New

Pros:

This software is integrated nicely into PowerPoint and facilitates audience engagement.

Cons:

Slido is located in Slovakia. In my case, my bank balked at using a business card for their products. I requested an invoice to see if I could pay that way: the only other solution was an overseas bank transfer, which appeared suspicious and unsafe. However, they unlocked the product anyway and billed me later for it - I had no idea that in requesting an invoice, I'd committed to use of the product and payment by bank transfer. This is the only software product I've ever known to give access to a product without payment first: I believed I was using the free version for that reason. I did not use the full functionality of Slido because I did not know I had it but was billed anyway. They've been relentlessly hounding me about this for weeks since then.

The most convenient way to engage audiences

5.0 last year

Comments: Slido has made it totally anxiety free for my educational platforms; it allows me set meetings and events, engage attendees and participants, control their interactions, and more importantly, get instant feedback and measure the outcomes of my meetings via polls, surveys, Q&A sessions and many other features. Without Slido, I might not be able to take my webinars and conferences to another level.

Pros:

Slido's user-friendly dashboard allows users to engage attendees in meetings using a bunch of powerful tools, which range from stunning themes and stand-alone settings to polling and voting in Q&A sessions. Slido users can set events in few clicks with much control on the number of participants, moderation settings, and data export. It allows users to protect the privacy of particpants with passwords, or single signing codes as security measures, not found in other alternatives. Slido makes easy for other companies with its integrations to many platforms, mainly Google and Youtube.

Cons:

Its amazing features are only available on paid plans, and that's a limitation for Slido. However, I don't think it is expensive to get.

Great for conference polling

5.0 last year

Comments: No complaints aside from a few suggested improvements for a better user experience (re rooms)

Pros:

Used at an international conference to take audience polls during different sessions. Worked really well. Audience liked it too. Being able to use different question types and save the answers for later anaylisis is great.

Cons:

Not being able to program rooms to activate at certain days or times. Not having a unique QR code for each room - made things complicated.

Live Polling without Monthly Subscription

5.0 last year

Comments: I signed up for their lowest product option for a single event at $60 only and I thought it was an excellent value and product. I was able to even to customize my #code name.

Pros:

The best thing about Slido is to sign up for the service on a case by case basis. Most other companies like it you would have to do a subscription.

Cons:

I'm not that tech savvy, so I wasn't sure how to embed the live poll in my powerpoint slide.
