Polls

Understand the basics

Meetings polls allow administrators to define questions for a meeting, that participants can answer while it’s happening. It can be very useful to gather quick feedback and make decisions during meetings without having to leave the meeting and use other kind of tools.

With this feature, administrators can define questions and manage when these questions and their results are shown to participants.
