The Condense team is pleased to present our customers with a host of new features to make using Poll Everywhere even more enjoyable, and a new subscription model that gives everyone more votes for less!

Subscriptions

Based on your feedback, we’re moving from prepaid vote packages to a monthly subscription model. We’ve made sure that everyone who paid for votes now receives at least that many votes every month!

Due to strong demand, we’re introducing an exciting free plan for anyone who wants to try Poll Everywhere. Instead of 100 free votes for signing up, our free package now includes 1,000 free votes per month! You can stick with the free plan as long as you like and easily upgrade if you need to accept more than 30 votes per poll. You can also downgrade to a lesser plan at any time, without any hassle.

PowerPoint 2007 Slide Downloads

We love being able to embed polls into PowerPoint without installing anything, but the old way was a little clunky. So we’ve created the ability to download a PowerPoint 2007 file pre-loaded with your poll. This means that if you’re using PowerPoint 2007, you don’t have to follow the 17 steps listed on the old instructions page to get a poll into PowerPoint!

This saves time and makes it easy for you to take the embedded poll and copy-paste it into another presentation. As always, you can copy it into multiple slides or resize it in order to display prompts and figures on the same slide. If you’re working with many polls in the same presentation, the old method of copy-pasting the poll URL still works fine.

Gizmos (or widgets) for Web Pages and Blogs

Our tech-savvy customers were already embedding polls in their blogs and websites. We’ve now made this easy for anyone. Look for the Share section on the right-hand navigation when editing/viewing your polls. You can copy-paste some simple code into any web page that supports HTML such as blogs, wikis, Course Management Systems, or discussion forums.

Graphical Chart Updates

You may notice some subtle enhancements to our charts which make them look better at different sizes and resolutions. This will help our customers who are displaying the graphical polls in smaller spaces, such as a blog or mobile device.

Enjoy!
