Vote and rate PDFsIncreased traceability in your group decisions
In order to better understand what is happening in your PollUnit, we have expanded our messaging system. All actions in your PollUnit are now stored in an Activity Log.
This is done to ensure a fair and transparent decision in the team during the vote. If you delete your PollUnit, all activities will be deleted.
We can inform you directly at PollUnit about new votes and comments. The administrators of PollUnits can now also delete abusive comments and duplicate or incorrect participation of other users, without doing so secretly.
You will find the Activity Log in the evaluation of your group decision.

Rate pictures onlineMore control over your group decisions
Many of our users wanted more control over the participants, content and votes in their PollUnit's. Therefore, we are happy to introduce you to our new admin functions.
First of all, please note: Our goal is to enable you a fair and transparent voting process. It should not be possible to cheat and secretly change content or votes. Therefore, all administrative interventions are saved in an Activity Log. This is visible to all participants.
As an admin of a group decision, you can now delete comments from participants. So you can remove inappropriate comments and abusive content from your PollUnit. That a comment was deleted is recorded in the Activity Log.
In addition, you can now delete participants and their votes as the admin of a poll. This is also recorded in the activity log. This feature allows you to remove duplicate and unauthorized participations transparently.
If you have any further ideas or requests, just drop us an email at support@pollunit.com.

To plan and prepare a bachelor party many discussions are necessary. Many questions have to be asked, partly to large groups.
PollUnit's online group decision tool will help you. Plan, collect ideas and let your participants rate the options - without an account. Here are a few typical questions that you can answer with PollUnit and your friends:
Who's joining?
So that you can continue planning, ask all participants of the bachelor party how much they are willing to spend. With a simple yes / no PollUnit and a few suggestions from you, you can easily find out.
Where is it going?
The planning of the location: Create a PollUnit and collect with all participants ideas where the bachelor party should take place. Then you can rate the ideas in the group. We recommend our star rating.
When do we celebrate?
Find together a date or the period when the bachelor party should take place. You can allow the participants to make their own suggestions.
Which activities are we planning?
Games, going for dinner, poledance, casino, a hiking day, etc. - Again, you can use PollUnit to collect your ideas, rate them and make a group decision.
And finally...
Distribute tasks!
Create a to-do list and distribute tasks. All participants can evaluate the tasks and PollUnit assigns the tasks according to the preferences of the participants.

Find decisions with the largest group acceptance
With PollUnit you can now also make online decisions with the least resistance. This means that you are not looking for decisions with the greatest approval, but a decision that is as close to consensus as possible with the slightest rejection.
You simply create a PollUnit with your preferred vote type, such as dot voting, star rating or simple yes / no. Now you can choose the goal of "Least Resistance". Your survey participants can now cast negative votes or resistance votes. The option with the fewest "minus points" wins.
This has the advantage that particularly serious doubts are discovered and options are excluded that meet in the group on large rejection. The result is the option with the highest acceptance in a group.
Tip: With PollUnit you can conduct surveys anonymously, limit votes and much more. Our dot voting is ideal for consensus-based decision-making.
