The questions that decide it
- Is the price per user or per workspace, and what happens as we grow?
- What can the app see in Slack: only its own polls, or message history and files too?
- Is the vendor independently certified, for example to ISO 27001?
- Does it cover the whole org on Enterprise Grid?
- Does it do surveys, anonymous feedback and recurring polls as well as quick votes?
- Can we pay by invoice and get a DPA if procurement needs one?
- Can we trial it with the polls we'd really run?

Test with a real poll
The fairest comparison is a real one. During Simple Poll's 14-day trial (card required), run the poll you'd run anyway, such as next week's pulse or an open decision, and see how many people answer. Hold any other app you're considering to the same test, and ask your IT team which one they'd approve. The checklist in how to choose a Slack poll app covers the rest.
Questions
Can we move our existing polls to Simple Poll?
Polls are quick to recreate: write the question and options after /poll, or start from the template library.
Is Simple Poll free?
There's a Free plan with a monthly response limit. Premium adds unlimited responses and every feature for one price per workspace.
