Does co-host work with multiple presenters managing their own powerpoint decks?

Before I purchase a paid plan, I wanted to clarify how co-host functions. Here is my scenario:

 

Bob purchases a Slido ‘Engage’ plan, invites co-hosts Mike and Sue for a particular slido event.

Neither Mike nor Sue need to purchase anything.

Mike creates his own powerpoint slides and slido polls, after accepting co-host invite.

Sue does the same… builds her own slides and polls, accepts co-host invite.

Bob, Mike, and Sue can all present their own powerpoint from their own laptops, all utilizing the same slido code for audience to login.

Bob, Mike, and Sue don’t really need to see the other’s presentations, or care about the others’ slido polls. We just want to share the code basically.

Is this accurate?

Hi ​@JDS.

Co-hosts can use the same slido for different presentations, but the Engage plan will only allow one interaction to be activated at a time in one slido. 

The Professional plan lets you set up multiple rooms.  Each host’s presentation would link to one of the rooms under that slido.

All participants would use the same slido code or scan the same QR code.  From there, they will need to select the appropriate room for them.

I hope that helps.

This is fine as we will only have one interaction active at any time. 
The use case for me is multiple presenters, but all in the same room, and presenting one after another… not in parallel.  So I don’t think I need the multiple room feature.
I just wanted to make sure each presenter can work independently and not have to all collaborate on one powerpoint deck.

Hello ​@JDS,
Understood, in that case it should work fine :) Multiple presenters can all use one room, add their poll to it, add that slido to their decks, and present one after another. This is valid. Although using the rooms feature to separate these ‘sessions’ is valid just as well, one room could be scheduled for 1-2pm and the next one for 2-3. Its up to you really, either option should work. And I do recommend doing a dry run, if not with the presenters then just testing by yourself.

I hope that helps.
