Tools for organizing multiple presenters on your account

User groups: Tools for organizing multiple presenters on your account

If you’re the owner or administrator on a Poll Everywhere account with 10 or more presenters, then User Groups is a feature that can be incredibly helpful in managing your account. It’s the most valuable tool for organizing multiple presenters.

User Groups help presenters by letting you control what polls they see. Then they’re not bothered with polls that don’t concern them. Each presenter may only be in one User Group at a time. Within that group, all presenters can see, use, and collaborate on one another’s polls. This is especially helpful for teams and departments that want to share questions or compare results. User Groups also help control privacy, as presenters cannot see polls from other User Groups.

How to create a new User Group

  1. Sign in to Poll Everywhere
  2. Click the gear icon at the top right, then ‘Settings’
  3. Click ‘Manage Users’ on the left side of your screen
  4. Choose ‘User Groups’ from the center menu
  5. Click ‘New Group’ below the search field

This is how User Groups work:

Manage User

By default, if no User Groups exist on the account then only the Owner of the primary account will be able to see, edit, and report on all other users on the account.

Once you’ve created a User Group, you will be able to move copies of any poll to any other specific user on their account through our Move/Copy feature on the My Polls page.

Meanwhile, presenters in each User Group will only be able to see polls, edit polls, activate, reorder, clear and view results on polls from other users within their User Group when they go to the Account Polls link on their My Polls page.

Note that any presenters not assigned to a group will not be able to see any of the other users on your account. Additionally they will not be able to move or copy polls to anyone else.

To manage the users on your account, create User Groups, or assign users to groups, please visit your Account Users page.
