Why Teams Switch from Slido
No subscription or IT setup needed
Slido requires a paid plan for anything beyond 3 polls per month. AnonPolls is free forever with no poll limits — no credit card, no IT approval, no Teams add-in installation.
Works for external guests without Microsoft accounts
Slido's Teams integration only works for people inside your Microsoft 365 tenant. AnonPolls links work for anyone — external partners, clients, or guests — in any browser.
AI poll generation is free, not a premium feature
Slido does not offer AI poll generation. AnonPolls uses AI to suggest poll questions and answer options — available to every user at no cost.
