Slido for YouTube like Live HD Broadcasting

Hello everyone, I thought I’d share a creative solution our team uses to integrate Slido into a live broadcasting environment, along with some suggestions for future feature development. For context: Microsoft Teams and Zoom are excellent tools for collaborative meetings but fall short when it comes to broadcasting. Our team hosts hour-long live video training sessions that include participant interaction and a Q&A segment afterward. Privacy is crucial for our audience, which makes Slido such a great fit. In the work we do, most participants prefer not to share their camera feed but still want to interact with the facilitator live on screen. One major issue with video conferencing tools is that they compress video quality to reduce the processing load of multiple video feeds. When delivering a live event, providing the best possible visuals is essential for creating an engaging audience experience. By opting for one-way video broadcasting through platforms like YouTube, Vimeo, Castr, o

Recommendations for running real-time voting poll with open-ended text fields?

We are hosting a virtual costume contest and want attendees to vote for each of their favorite categories during the team call. What recommendations do you have to pull this off successfully? There are 5 categories for voting, including best overall. It is also impossible for us to pre-load a survey or multiple choices with names and/or voting options as the costumes will be revealed and need to be written in real-time. We are also expecting 25+ attendees, so pre-populating a multiple choice with expected names won’t be feasible. Is there a template for this use case? I am new to Slido and have currently set it up as multiple polls with word clouds, each integrated into the meeting PPT. The tutorial videos indicate the more popular words will be larger, but we prefer to see actual voting numbers (if even only me and a meeting collaborator). I am not finding how best to tabulate such results for the open text words, nor how best to export the outcomes for each poll question. Thank you!

Interactive Webinar Experiences with Slido

I’ve been using Slido for in-person events for the last 1.5 years and I’ve used a few times for webinars. We’re shifting our approach to webinars to make them more interactive. In fact, they’re less webinar and much more of an engagement experience. That said, getting engagement can be hard even with in-person events (I know personally). We use ice-breakers to get folks familiar with Slido and that has worked well. Here’s our use case: We have an experience with 3 different challenges and wanted responses on a 2-3 questions for each challenge. Would 3x3 = 9 types of questions be too much in a 45 minute span? Does integration with Zoom work better when sharing slides? What’s the max number of questions or polling you’ve done in a 45 min online event with 100 people? This is with “prospect customers”, not an internal company event, so the stakes for a smooth execution are much higher. I’ll happily share what we end up doing and the results. Thanks, Peter

Allow multiple votes to only some attendees

I have the following use case. Many attendees are participating in a slido poll. I want to prevent not invited users to vote AND and need to grant multiple votes (2 or 3) to only some users whereas "standard" users should only have 1 vote granted. Is it possible?

Any tips on different polls for allhands?

Hi! What questions do you use in your company-wide meetings? We’re usually doing ice-breakers like ‘Describe your week in one word’ or what’s been the highlight of the month and a feedback at the end, but I’m running out of inspiration. Do you have any tips?
