Why people switch

01

Why teams switch from Slido

Slido is a solid tool, but most teams only need a handful of question types, a QR code and live results. Hopvote focuses on exactly that, with a cleaner presenter screen and pricing that does not require a yearly plan.

  • Monthly billing, cancel anytime: no annual contract to start
  • Every question type in the free plan: polls, quiz, word cloud, rating, ranking, open text, Q&A
  • Each phone reads the questions in its own language, automatically
  • Your logo, colors and fonts on the big screen from €5 a month
02

Works where you already present

Show live results inside PowerPoint and Canva, add a join slide in Google Slides, or present from any browser tab. In Teams, Zoom or Google Meet, share the short link in the chat and everyone answers from their computer or phone.

03

Switching takes five minutes

Create a free account, write your questions or let the AI draft them from a short brief, then show the QR code. Participants never need an app or an account, so there is nothing to roll out.
