Present and vote - online surveys for designers, agencies and their clients
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.

Present and vote - online s...Interactive surveys for team meetings and classrooms
To communicate between the survey participant's browser and the PollUnit server we use the WebSocket protocol. This has the advantage over a pure HTTP connection that the browser does not have to ask for new results of your survey in order to get updates. With WebSockets the browser instantly receives new votes or changes - without waiting.
This makes PollUnit suitable for interactive surveys for meetings or classrooms. For example, create a survey of which topics are to be addressed next. Your colleagues or students can see your PollUnit via a projector. You share your survey and each participant chooses an option with his laptop or smartphone. Every change is instantly visible to everyone. You and your team or students can immediately discuss the results or add new options.
For votes, e.g. the choice to a class representative, you can also conduct your survey anonymously.
By clicking on evaluation, you and all participants will get a result with pie chart and bar graph.

Organize Party online - wit...PollUnit's Dot Voting Tool
With Dot-Voting (also known as Sticker-Voting, Dotmocracy or Multi-Voting) you facilitate the decision-making in a group. This agile method is often used to resolve the number of topics, ideas and options and prioritize them.
Each member of your group gets a limited number of points or stickers. These can be distributed by the participant to available or his favorite options. The participant can assign any number of points to an option or a previously specified maximum number per option.
After the vote, the dot-voting shows you a "winner", but also an evaluation of all ideas and options. You can then develop these in the team further.
PollUnit offers you a dot-voting tool with which your team can quickly and easily evaluate your topics. The basic functions of the Online Dot voting are free of charge and can also be used without account.
PollUnit's online dot voting adds a few more benefits. Dot-voting is usually an open voting procedure and carries the risk of a co-ordination effect. You can prevent this by running your PollUnit anonymously.
Just try it out, click on "Create new PollUnit" and generate your first dot-voting.

With PollUnit you can spare yourself and your friends these difficulties or at least speed up this process. With our date-finding tool, you can create a simple survey.

Suggest own datesEvaluate ideas and topics online
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.
