Open text poll with ranking and upvoting

Hello ​@Erwann, 

Mikaella here from Slido -  happy to help here! 😊

This is a great idea! We don’t have this feature available for our open text polls, only for our audience Q&A feature and will definitely share with our product team for future developments. 

With the word cloud, your participants will still need to type the word(s) they would like to use and if another participant entered the same response, then that will come up as a suggested answer. 

With the ranking poll, the “other” option sounds great to get more feedback from customers, but we don’t have that option either available.

As a workaround and depending on your slido set up, you can either:

• use our survey feature and have two poll questions, one will be your ranking poll with your options including other and then for your second poll question, you can use an open text poll and create the poll question “ If you answered “other” in question 1, please can you share more info below or,
• you can use a ranking poll, followed by an open text question.

Hope this works for you! If you have any questions with Slido, please feel free to reach out. I'll be happy to help.

My best,

I would also like the upvote feature to be included in open text polls so I can use multiple poll-then-vote flows in one session.

Hello ​@Erwann,

Gotcha! I’ve shared upvotes for open text polls with our product team for future developments already. 

Yes you can, with our multiple choice poll you can add the participants ideas from the open text polls and ask participants to vote. It’s a bit manual, with copying and pasting responses, so having an additional co-host will be helpful here. 

Hope this helps! Let us know if you have any questions. 😊

My best,

Mika from Slido
