Poll made easy

We really like to use Polly. It's a very easy way to collect feedbacks on many area of our work. Not only with employees, but alos from customers etc.

PROS

We started using Polly some time ago. We have it integrated into Slack, which we use daily. We love to use poll for a lot of things : Employee Satisfaction, Review surveys, or any kind of Survey linked to our services and product. Our team for instance also uses it to collect user's feedback.

CONS

So far, nothing to say really. It really does it job as it is mostly used to creates polls.

Vendor Response

Happy to hear that our native Slack integration is making it easy for you to collect feedback on diverse work aspects involving employees as well as customers :) If there's anything we can help you with, feel free to reach out to us at contact@polly.ai

Call Center Agent Performance Checker

Polly helps keep us connected and get to know each other in a fun way since we are a 100% remote call center with agents all over the US. It also helps with employee reviews to include some direct quotes from others' feedback in coaching opportunities.

PROS

We love that it integrates so easily with Microsoft Teams and can be accessed with just one click.

CONS

We would like to be able to have a suggestion box open at all times so employees can leave comments at any time rather than when they are prompted to do so.

Reason for choosing Polly

The software features, ease of use, and pricing were the top reasons we chose Polly over the others.

Vendor Response

Thanks for the detailed review Liz, means a lot to us :) We do have a suggestion box open for all times features in Slack by the name of Open Forum (https://www.polly.ai/help/slack/open-forum-polly) but you are right, it's not available in Teams currently. In Teams you can use the Ask Me Anything (AMA) template and set the close date really really far while pinning the polly post. It isn't exactly the solution you had in mind but this could be a workaround. In the meantime, I am going to add this ask as part of the product feedback channel so the product folks can explore this further as part of future sprint planning

PROS

Easy and needed product. Its a good slack integration.

CONS

Ease of use and customizability. Not super intuitive and hard to find send options. And hard to add to channel

Vendor Response

You are right Samantha, the customizations can come across as limited but it will be great if you can share what kind of customizations you had in mind, I would love to get back to you with what is possible. Regarding your comments around difficulty in sending options and adding channels, you can send a polly in the channel or as Polly DM to people in your workspace. I would want to take a closer look at the issues you faced so it will be great if you can share the details at contact@polly.ai

The most helpful work tool

It makes my day, I get addicted to making people answer my polls.

PROS

The fact that I can ask my colleagues opinion on various things, what they feel like eating for lunch, if anyone has time to work on a last minute bookings etc. and am able to receive their answers at one place.

CONS

The fact that we have limited responses per month. If all employees answer my polls, I can only use this tool twice a month.

Great polling app that integrates with Slack

I've tried other options and have been frustrated. MS Teams Polls has very limited functionality. Google Forms means sending people somewhere else, and doesn't offer everything I was looking for. And other tools are just too complex. Polly offers what I wanted for my team with a very reasonable price tag (and a lot of functionality for free).

PROS

I love that I can create polls within Slack, where my team spends a lot of their time. I also like the scheduling and automation features; I don't have to set reminders for myself to nudge people to respond — Polly does it for me.

CONS

The UI for creating templates vs creating new polls is a bit confusing.

Reasons for switching to Polly

The polling feature is extremely limited and awkward.

Vendor Response

Exciting to hear that you're getting value out of our scheduling & automation features! We love it when using Polly reduces the manual work. Thanks for the UI improvement feedback Rachel, it's really helpful. If there's anything more you would like us to know, feel free to write to us at contact@polly.ai

Polly - Collaborating with teams is easier than you think

Before this we used to communicate through slack direct messages on which tasks to be picked up daily. Sometimes the communication doesn't happen due to time constraints which makes 2 people doing the same things without realising. After using polly which sends us the task list daily to our slack channel, we can vote for the tasks. This was appreciated by many when integrated.

PROS

Ability to create work delegation polls made our work lives easier. Basically it cut down our duplication work due to clear communication through polly. Statistics shows that we work faster because of this.

CONS

Yet to find something that I don't agree with Polly.

Fun Slack integration for professional environments

PROS

Polly amazingly let's me survey my team of 30 individuals on Slack easily without the hassle of having to define what each emojis mean and then gives the result also in real time. It's similar to the LinkedIn polls feature but for Slack. Polly also has other functionality like, rating scales, custom questions, templates etc all designed to make life easy for surveys and engaging with your team.

CONS

I didnt like that the app doesnt remind folks in DM who are yet to fill the survey /poll.

Vendor Response

Thanks for the review. Loving how you're making use of different question types! We do offer the reminders feature. You can send reminders from within Slack through the /polly remind command. It will show the ongoing pollys, select the polly you want to send the reminder for & it will be sent instantly. If you want to setup an auto reminder schedule as part of polly creation then the polly will have to be created through the web app dashboard. Here's a step by step guide around creating pollys through the web app. https://www.polly.ai/help/slack/creating-pollys-through-the-web-app Let me know if this helps.

Using Polly has reduced the amount of time required for some meetings as members can now use the Polly to vote.

PROS

This software is very easy to use and navigate. I am a novice computer user with limited knowledge and I was able to create my own Polly and add a comments section, I was so pleased with myself.

CONS

I have not been able to find anything I least like.

Polly helps us increase employee engagement

We love Polly, but using it so much we are running out of engagement topics so we would like to see more of those.

PROS

We love the trivia the most but wish more questions were added and would LOVE the ability to have custom trivia (I have heard this is on its way for a long time now).

CONS

During trivia, if multiple people are answering at the same time, it may not save one of their answers. Also, if someone votes on a survey multiple times it removes their vote but they often don't know it has been removed.

Vendor Response

You're right Alexis, custom trivia has been an ask for a while now, no timeline on this feature as of now :( I have added your review as well to the ask so it adds more weight to it :) The issue you have mentioned about trivia answers not getting saved, this should definitely not be happening. It will be great if you could share some more details around it at contact@polly.ai & I'll get to it on priority. Lastly regarding the voting, if the polly is set to allow multiple votes then the multiple votes will be counted but you are right, if you click on what you have voted a second time, it "un-votes" the choice

Great for what we need

The customer service is A+!

PROS

Polly is super easy to use and gets the results via Slack quickly. It's able to be scheduled and customized so it makes it pretty simple to crank out the surveys that are needed.

CONS

The UX is a bit clunky and I don't love the reporting (I wish there were ways to pull in multiple surveys into one export).

Vendor Response

Thanks for the review Kim. It will be great if you can share some more details around what you were looking for as part of the reporting feature, we are always keen to improve the functionalities based on customer feedback. I recall a few other customers also asking for pulling in multiple surveys as part of one export, I've added this as part of the product feedback channel so the product folks can take a closer look at this requirement.

Super happy to hear that you found our customer service A+, we hope to exceed our customers expectations everytime they interact with us

Polly makes it super easy to ask quick questions and get feedback

great tool for short questions, but not able to handle large surveys. Great for small teams.

PROS

Simple to use, and integrated with Slack. This made it super easy to ask questions like: where should the team go for lunch (pre pandemic) or when should our next happy hour be?

CONS

I did not like the limitations and difficulty with editing after sending a poll. Since the use cases are mostly casual, I would rather sacrifice some integrity of the polling system, but instead be able to make minor changes after a poll is sent.

Vendor Response

Thanks for the detailed review Alfonso. We have fine tuned our editing feature quite a lot since last year, more around Editing can be found here https://www.polly.ai/help/slack/editing-a-published-poll-or-survey We would love to hear if there is anything more that you would like to see/do as part of this feature (or any other feature).

PROS

What I like most about this software are the user experience and user interface. It's super intuitive and easy to use. I also like how customizable the tool is.

CONS

The software is a little pricey for our current needs and goals because the free plan limits us to only 25 responses per month. The number of responses included in the standard plan is more than what we need, so it would be nice if there was an in-between.

Reason for choosing Polly

Easily integrates with Slack!

One of the most useful integrations for Slack in modern companys!

I am working in a mostly remote company (who doesn't today) and this let's me get feedback, collect information and prepare meetings as well as events in a quick and in a what feels to my colleagues as a rather informal way.

PROS

I really like the simple integration to Slack where I use polly the most. With the templates you can start rather quick without having to spend a lot of time "learning a new tool (again)". I am currently using the free plan with 25 responses a month. It's a great way to test not only the tool itself but also how your colleagues respond to it.

CONS

Actually nothing really at this point in time. At some point I might want to start using the tool to its full potential where the learning curve might flatten.
