## Polly Reviews
  ### 1. Great for work

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Nakeisha B. | Team Leader, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 22, 2025

**What do you like best about Polly?**

Our team uses this as a tool to collect data from our team

**What do you dislike about Polly?**

It is not an easy-to-use interface due to the many steps before using it.

**What problems is Polly solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We use it to collect polls when trying to make a decesion with our agents.

  ### 2. Nice addition to your Teams instance

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Ivan B. | Cloud Escalation Engineer, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 20, 2023

**What do you like best about Polly?**

The interface is intuitive and the tool is overall easy to use. It added multiple tools to our MS Teams chat rooms that were missing from the default installation.

**What do you dislike about Polly?**

I'd say it lacks killer features and is replaced by products it integrates with over time.

**What problems is Polly solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It helps employees of our company add polls and quizzes to MS Teams chat rooms. Maybe the tool can do more but it is the only use we managed to find for our team.

**Official Response from Abeeda Haroon:**

> Thank you for the review Ivan 🙏 
Customer voice is a key part of our product roadmap. I'm excited to learn more about the "killer features" you had in mind, do let us know at contact@polly.ai 


  ### 3. A fun way to get the team's input

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 13, 2022

**What do you like best about Polly?**

In a world where face-to-face communications are augmented by async chats in Slack, we can use more levity like that provided by Polly. Yes, it's a poll - but who doesn't like colorful parrots to add a touch of anthropomorphicness?

**What do you dislike about Polly?**

Polly defaults to non-anonymous responses. The person who asks is revealed by default also. It takes a bit of reading to figure out the other settings, so it's likely the first poll anyone makes with Polly is non-anonymous.

**What problems is Polly solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Polly helps bring the team together by making it easy to create polls and get the team's input on various matters in Slack. It's best for multiple-choice / select-one situations.

**Official Response from Abeeda Haroon:**

> Thank you for sharing the Polly love 💙 Happy to hear that Polly lightens up your Slack 🤩
We offer lots of customisation settings so indeed, it takes a few pollys to get a hang of them! but updating the default to anonymous definitely sounds like an interesting idea worth exploring ....


  ### 4. Quick and Simple

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 26, 2022

**What do you like best about Polly?**

As a Slack-focused organization. I love that Polly integrates with Slack. It's also incredibly simple and easy to use

**What do you dislike about Polly?**

I wish there were ways to better integrate Polly into a regular slack message vs. looking like it's coming from a bot either in the app on in a channel.

**What problems is Polly solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Gathering responses and feedback but being able to automate the process and have a centralized place where the feedback resides.

**Official Response from Abeeda Haroon:**

>  "Incredibly simple & easy to use" ... You made our day with these words 🤩 Thank you 🙏 
Regarding your feedback around the Polly looking like a message, you mean to suggest that for how the polly appears in the channel or the responses or the auto reply you receive after response. If it will be great if you could share some more details around this at contact@polly.ai so we can take it up with the product folks.

  ### 5. Easy to use for virtual group decisions

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Gina W. | Fintech Client Strategy Consultant, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 16, 2022

**What do you like best about Polly?**

The integration into slack makes voting and communication easy

**What do you dislike about Polly?**

Not the most user friendly when you first get started

**What problems is Polly solving and how is that benefiting you?**

choosing meeting dates, voting on themes or presentation topics, getting opinions from people who missed meetings

**Official Response from Abeeda Haroon:**

> Thank you for the review Gina 🙏 Really happy to hear that Polly is helping you with team collaboration 🤝 
We are continuously working on simplifying polly creation for new users, if there is any specific feedback that you have for our improvement, please do share it at contact@polly.ai. We would love to hear more from you 💙

  ### 6. Useful and well integrated

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Bogdan I. | Graphic Designer, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 16, 2022

**What do you like best about Polly?**

Its integration within the Microsoft ecosystem.

**What do you dislike about Polly?**

Could offer some more capabilities, such as A/B testing with graphic elements.

**What problems is Polly solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Making group decisions faster and analyzing responses more efficiently than the usual tools such as google forms or the default ones from the Microsoft ecosystem.

**Official Response from Abeeda Haroon:**

> Thanks for the review Bodgan 🙏 Really happy to know that polly is helping you in making decision faster ⏩ Polly being well knitted within the Microsoft system is definitely a plus which a lot of our customer value. 

Regarding your suggestion around A/B testing, this is definitely an interesting idea, I'm going to share it with the product folks so they can explore this💡

  ### 7. good

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Ana Maria H. | RPA Project Manager & Business Analyst, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 02, 2021

**What do you like best about Polly?**

easy to find
direct integration with teams
export capabilities

**What do you dislike about Polly?**

cannot disable subscription on my own, although i can enable one on my own
low no of votes for the free version, only trial to test it on actual company size figures
cannot attach file in poll

**What problems is Polly solving and how is that benefiting you?**

poll within the company - shared feedback from employees

**Official Response from Abeeda Haroon:**

> Thanks for the candid review Ana 🙏 
You can manage your subscription through your Polly Account settings at any time. About attaching a file, you are right, the feature still isn't available 😔 Nevertheless, I'm sure our product team will appreciate the idea so I'm going to add this as part of the product feedback channel. Feel free to reach out to us at 📧 contact@polly.ai with anymore ideas that you may have 

  ### 8. Good meeting poll tool

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 16, 2021

**What do you like best about Polly?**

Super easy to use and user friendly meeting poll tool!

**What do you dislike about Polly?**

There's nothing I can think of at the top of my head right now

**What problems is Polly solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Meeting poll survey/employee engagement

**Official Response from Abeeda Haroon:**

> Thank you for the review, we love it when our customers find Polly easy to use 💙 Feel free to reach out at contact@polly.ai if you have any questions or suggestions for us 🙏

  ### 9. Great for short, informal surveys

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 27, 2018

**What do you like best about Polly?**

Integration in slack makes it much more likely for our employees to complete surveys, because they don't have to click around everywhere. You can see results in comments in slack too- the whole integration is great. They have pretty good templates for surveys as well. We have taken a few and customized them for our own needs.

**What do you dislike about Polly?**

Once a survey is sent, you don't have the option to change it or to even change the close date, so if something needs to be changed you have to go ahead and delete it, and then start over. An edit functionality would be great.

**Recommendations to others considering Polly:**

We use polly and surveymonkey for different things because they have different strengths. Polly is great for short informal surveys/questions.

**What problems is Polly solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Using polly for short informal surveys to gauge employee interest in various initiatives, like snack preferences or what book to read for a book club. Integration with slack means our developers don't have to click out of anything. Small time saver but makes a big difference in participation.

  ### 10. Good poll service. A little ambiguous to set up

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 05, 2018

**What do you like best about Polly?**

I like that you use this in Slack and poll different channels

**What do you dislike about Polly?**

I dislike the ambiguous set up as far as starting a poll in Slack 

**What problems is Polly solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Providing the ability to gauge company culture. We've been able to quickly communicate 

  ### 11. Easy to use app for simple, streamlined polling

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Retail | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 17, 2017

**What do you like best about Polly?**

I like the ability to do both anonymous and non-anonymous reviews.  The ability to send the poll via direct message also comes in handy for polls that cross group channels. Scheduling of polls also helps with time management.

**What do you dislike about Polly?**

Would like an option to make more dynamic polls - like slider bars or ranking options.

**Recommendations to others considering Polly:**

This is really only for simple use cases - you're not going to reinvent the wheel or get a lot of complex problems solved here, but it's easy, quick, and fun.

**What problems is Polly solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Avoiding email when quick responses to simple questions are needed.  Keeps inboxes more streamlined and allows more people quick input on questions.

  ### 12. Polly is great when integrated with Slack for polling group questions.

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Alex S. | Test Development Engineer, Defense & Space, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 21, 2018

**What do you like best about Polly?**

It's easy to setup polls that can be customized for whatever my needs are.

**What do you dislike about Polly?**

I haven't used it enough to find something I dislike yet.

**What problems is Polly solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It makes it much easier to get the groups' opinion on questions.

  ### 13. Polly is easy to use and integrated into Slack very well

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Internet | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 17, 2017

**What do you like best about Polly?**

Works natively in the slack app and you can easily get information via surveys

**What do you dislike about Polly?**

Nothing at all, other than the fact that there are so many slackbots that it's hard to keep track of them all

**What problems is Polly solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Sourcing information from large crowds instantly on Slack

  ### 14. A Slack Bot that provides poll/voting functionality

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Religious Institutions | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 10, 2017

**What do you like best about Polly?**

Once the poll is up and running it's quite user friendly.

**What do you dislike about Polly?**

The set up seems to be more complicated than necessary

**What problems is Polly solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We needed an easy way for the team to quickly vote on various items. This simple bot provided that functionality.
