To simplify the evaluation of your polls and online votings, we have added another line with the sum of all votes. If you have created a poll with star rating or dot voting, all stars or points are summarized.

Have fun making your next decision! 😉

Distributing tasks is not always easy. Personal preferences as well as the mixture of unpleasant and pleasant tasks often make it difficult to decide who will take on what task.

PollUnit takes this decision from you, but also considers the priorities of your participants. Try the online tool and easily distribute your tasks. You proceed as follows:

You create a new PollUnit with the target 'Optima distribution of options'. Choose Starrating or Dot-Voting as the voting type. With the type Dot-Voting you can also limit the total number of votes per person. In step 4, you usually switch the participants' votes to hidden. So no one can see, who prefers which task. Now all participants can prioritize the tasks they would like to do.

After the PollUnit has expired or when you close your poll, the system distributes the tasks so that as many preferences as possible are taken into account.

With PollUnit, you can efficiently make decisions and schedule appointments. This can be sensitive data, e.g. you create a poll about secret designs for the next campaign, logos, the next topics in your company ...

With PollUnit you can create secure surveys. Here you will learn what you should look out for.

PollUnit uses the encryption system SSL (Secure Socket Layer) for the free accounts for the entire data exchange. This ensures that personal data can not be read, copied or altered unauthorized while communicating with our server.

When you create a survey, a link is generated automatically that allows your users to participate in your survey. This link consists of a code that is nearly impossible to guess.

You should be aware of that the link can be saved in the browser history when transferring and using this secret link. This could make it possible for other people using your computer to access your surveys. This can be prevented by deleting your browser history. To ensure more effective access protection, you can also protect your survey with a password at PollUnit. We recommend you always set a password when you make decisions about sensitive data or company secrets.

As a further security measure, you can only allow access to users who have been sent an invitation. Only users who have a PollUnit account or create a new account via the invitation are allowed to access your poll. So you can restrict your survey to a specific group of people.

As a designer or agency, it is part of everyday life to coordinate and evaluate graphic work with customers. Often several decision-makers have to be involved. This makes a joint assessment of the work difficult.

PollUnit is an ideal tool to speed up the evaluation and reconciliation process.

A small example: You want to present your logos to different customers and let them vote which logo is best.
To do this, create a PollUnit with the "Image" type. In order to make an rating possible, you select "star rating" or "dot-voting" as voting type. Upload your logos and share your PollUnit with your customers. Check out our Tutorial to create polls to rate your images.

Now your customers can see your work and rate it in a Lightbox.

You also have the option to hide the ratings of your participants. This prevents you from influencing your customers. At the end of the vote, the hidden votes are displayed and an evaluation is made possible.

An optional password and a full SSL encryption provide additional protection.

Your customers also can leave feedback in the comments.

PollUnit offers the possibility to create surveys, in which the participants can not only answer yes and no. The voting types 'Star Rating' and 'Dot-Voting' are suitable for evaluating your ideas and topics.

This is useful, for example, to prioritize specific time periods during the time-finding. However, there are many possibilities for using a valuation tool such as PollUnit, especially in professional everyday life.

For example, your team collects a wealth of ideas through brainstorming. This huge number of options can be evaluated and filtered using 'Star Rating' or 'Dot-Voting'. This can be done privately, but also in the team. The vote is possible both publicly and anonymously. Since PollUnit updates the result in real-time (no reload of the page necessary), each team member can submit his / her evaluation on his / her computer, but also immediately sees each vote of the other.

Use PollUnit to plan the topics for your retrospective. Each of the participants can propose their own topics and evaluate them and other topics. The subjects with the most votes are then discussed first.
