"The Ideal Tool to Present & Interact with Students with easy Clicks, No brainer"
5/5
What do you like best about Slido?

Slido makes amazingly easy for me to share educational content with my students offering all means of interaction, all to turn any meeting very illuminating. You can share your content, ask students easily with make-for-you questions of all types, you can share data, rates; you can even test them on the spot through the facility of quizzes. Briefly, its dashboard is user-friendly as any beginner will be able to use, its intuitive functions and facilities, and above all, these features are affordable at less than 15 USD per month, which is totally less expensive than its rivals.

For the things I did not like, let me say that Slido did not offer a lot of features for free plans. Its Professional Plan is too expensive. One moe thing, the integrations. I find it less helpful to use video, I could not record the presentation, for personal records, which is strange. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Slido?

That its is too expensive for enterprises and education institutions. I still need, as an educator, the inclusion of LMS integrations to make it private, protected and mainly recorded for later uses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Seamless QR Code Icebreakers with Live Visual Metrics"
4/5
What do you like best about Slido?

It’s a great way to incorporate an icebreaker into a meeting or training session. It’s interactive and very seamless to join and participate in. Once it’s set up, every participant can join simply by scanning a QR code; it works quickly and doesn’t require much technical ability. It also pairs well with PowerPoint, Google Slides, and Microsoft Teams. The standout feature for me is the real-time visual metrics you can see live as people join and cast their votes or answers.

What do you dislike about Slido?

The pricing plans are a bit on the higher side if you only intend to use it periodically. The Basic Plan does offer some flexibility for customization, but if you’re concerned about maintaining your own company branding, it can feel a bit limiting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy Interactive Polls and Q&A, but Limited Compliance Controls and Deep Analytics"
3.5/5
What do you like best about Slido?

The best thing about Slido is how easily it makes a passive experience an interactive one. With live polls, Q&A session, quizzes, and word clouds, participation becomes easier than ever for users in any scenario, be it a meeting, a training session, or a bigger event. It ensures high participation rates when there may be reluctance to participate.

An important advantage offered by Slido is the simplicity of use and integration with various tools such as PowerPoint and Webex. Interactions can be set up quickly, and the participants need not download anything before using it, which takes away the burden from them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Slido?

The first weakness of Slido lies in the fact that whereas it offers a good solution for basic engagement, it might be too constrained when applied to regulated areas like healthtech or fintech. In particular, while organizing some sessions related to patient or finance operations, there might be the necessity to implement a more sophisticated mechanism of data management, control over the anonymity settings, and other compliance features.

Another weak point associated with the tool is connected to its flexibility and level of analysis. Indeed, although it is rather user-friendly in terms of polls and Q&A, it becomes too constrictive when using Slido for some specific purposes. For example, the analytics are helpful on the whole, but lack the required level of detail that would allow analyzing the participants' behavior. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Super easy to use, highly recommended for quiz, competitions & L&D's."
5/5
What do you like best about Slido?

I really like Slido's enhanced integration with platforms like Zoom and Microsoft Teams, making engagement during virtual events easier. The improved analytics dashboard provides valuable insights into audience participation, and the expanded custom branding options allow for a more professional look. Additionally, the new interactive polls and quizzes make participation more fun. Overall, these updates significantly enhance the experience for both organizers and attendees! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Slido?

Slido is effective but can improve by enhancing customization, expanding integrations, and offering better analytics. Adding offline functionality, improving the mobile experience, and including gamification would increase participation. Better multi-language support and more poll options could also boost engagement. These changes could significantly enhance Slido. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Empowers Interactive Presentations with Ease"
5/5
What do you like best about Slido?

I like using Slido because it creates a sort of interactivity with the audience that everyone loves and appreciates. It gives me insight directly about what the audience understands and thinks. The interactivity part is really amazing, allowing me to create a baseline understanding by making the audience vote throughout the presentation, and the results showing up on the slides are impressive. I find the setup really easy, as I can install the add-ons in PowerPoint, connect it with my browser and account seamlessly, and see templates and voting results in my slides directly. It's been an amazing experience, and the audience loves it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Slido?

I would really like to see Slido in Canva, and their pricing model need to be adjusted. In addition to that, I want them to be like Quizlet or something like that to maybe enable some quizzes, not only voting or interaction. I maybe want them to have a quiz inside my PowerPoint and to share them the results and the correct answers after the lecture has ended to their emails. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless Results with an Excellent UI allows Presentations with Real-Time feedback using a QR code"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Slido?

Very easy to achieve good results with very little effort. The User Interface is excellent and clearly shows the various types of interactions available. The presentation mode with QR code really works in real time with an audience using mobile phones. I really appreciate that the Free mode does actually work with a larger audience as it allows to test real functionality. This also separates Slido from the competition. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Slido?

It could provide more options to display results, e.g. pie charts, donut charts. It would be nice to have integration with other Office suites such as OpenOffice/LibreOffice Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Platform for meeting engagement."
5/5
What do you like best about Slido?

It allows participants to ask questions very anonymously hence it enables the participants to keep up with the pace of the explanations.

It consists of an overview which is very helpful for us to understand the engagement level of my audiences during a meeting.

It provides a great downloadable analytics as well as online graphical reports which gives the participants a chance to engage on the activities within the organisation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Slido?

Slido is the core income creator in the organisation that I don't see any dislike about it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Standout Q&A Upvoting and Moderation, with a Clean Mobile Experience"
4/5
What do you like best about Slido?

The Q&A upvoting and moderation queue is the standout feature for us. It lets employees ask sensitive questions anonymously while preventing the loudest voice from dominating the town hall. I also appreciate how clean the participant view looks on mobile devices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Slido?

The analytics export is fairly basic and requires manual cleanup in Excel before sharing with leadership. I also find the user limit on the lower tier plans gets restrictive during company-wide meetings. The event link tends to expire too quickly for those catching up on recordings.

"Engaging Classroom That Work Great with Google Slides"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Slido?

In the teaching profession, I find Slido has useful features, such as the whole-class quiz, which gives instant responses back to a group of students. I have used four of the available features, including the word cloud, and this was particularly effective in junior classes. In summary, I have tried 4 different features in my classroom (Google Slides) almost works seamlessly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Slido?

Slido is a simple-to-use add-on for Google Slides. However, at times when I change a question or make a modification, such as updating a Q&A. At times, the change doesn’t reflect during the presentation. The workaround is to remove the question and recreate it, which usually solves the issue, but it would be great if this could be improved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Juraj Jonek of Slido

Thank you very much for your review, we really appreciate it. If you experience any issues updating slides while using the Google Slides add-on, please submit a bug report at https://www.slido.com/contact so our team could investigate it.

"Slido Makes Audience Engagement Effortless with Intuitive Polls and Seamless Integrations"
5/5
What do you like best about Slido?

Slido is easy to use and effective at increasing audience engagement during meetings, webinars, and events. Features such as live polls, Q&A, and word clouds run smoothly and feel very intuitive, even for first-time users. I also find the integration with tools like PowerPoint, Google Slides, and Microsoft Teams especially convenient, making it simple to use in professional settings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Slido?

Some of the more advanced features are only available on higher-tier plans, which can feel limiting for smaller teams. Also, the customization options for visuals and branding could be broadened so it’s easier to align the look and feel with corporate presentation styles. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
