Voting & Audience Response Systems

Our voting & audience response systems have set a new standard for intelligent audience response and feedback. The system facilitates participants to respond to pre-defined our own questions from traditional hardware voting pads or integrated mobile applications. Our flexible voting systems are incredibly useful at larger events where you want to poll the attendees using modern technology. One of the biggest value of our voting solutions is to see the audience response immediately after the last person provided feedback on an underlying question. Different ways of illustrating the results can have a big impact in regards to participant engagement and contributions.

Voting system: Collecting relevant information for your organization

Our wireless voting systems support generating a variety of different responses from the event audience. Participant responses help you to gather suitable data and feedback for particular questions and topics that your and your team can analyse during or after the event.

The information gathered through wireless response can be immediately integrated into different types of presentations. Furthermore, group/team comparisons can be made and the segmented results can also be analyzed. The response system blends the traditional voting modes, which had options of yes/no/abstain and for/against, into the new design and features of game show style, weighted voting and alike. Participants can also contribute well to the online-opinion-polling and voting which is an important feature of wireless response.

Voting System - Hardware

Voting Hardware is used when either not all participants have access to smart phone/tablet devices or if certain legal or regulatory requirements in regardst to compliance apply. We provide different voting hardware and software solutions. As such we can support low volume as well as super-size-scale events.
The voting system hardware consists of chargeable voting pads as well as transponders / antennas. Depending on the model, 1 transponder / antenna can support up to 5000 participants in a certain radius. If the voting is in a larger environment, more transponders / antennas have to be set up.
Voting hardware remains a more secure environment in regards to audit / compliance. Several international standards and regulations prescribe the usage of specific hardware solutions for example for voting in formal AGMs, Board meetings, public service related environments.
The result of hardware based voting can be visible immediately and integrated into traditional PowerPoint presentations.

Smartphone solutions and voting mobile applications allow for a cost efficient integration of voting into your event. Compared to hardware solution, it saves on voting and pads and transponder / antenna hardware infrastructure. On the other hand, it might not be allowed to use smartphone solutions in certain environments, e.g. AGMs.


Within our native (iOS / android) or web mobile application, we allow voting for different type of questions. This can be voting for multiple-choice questions, single choice questions or also allow free text input. The results can be shown real-time in different presentation screens on a presentation or within the mobile application.

Voting Result Presentation

The results for voting sessions can be either directly integrated into a PowerPoint presentation or summarized on dedicated presentation screens. The integration capabilities depends on the specific solution selected. For smartphone based solutions, the result can also be presented within the application itself.
For special illustration types, like tag clouds, dynamic charts, etc, we recommend our smartphone solution as it allows for more design options.

Traditional Illustrations : The basic information can be plotted in standard charts on presentation monitors or embedded into your powerpoint slides.

Live-updating Tag-Clouds : The illustration of word-based results in tag-clouds has become more prevalent in the last year. It provides a modern view on data with the size representing the frequency. Live-updating tag clouds look attractive, but may also dilute polling results.

Live-updating Charts : A majority of the display methods can be live updating, that means that the chart will refresh once new data arrives. While this method make the process more interesting to watch, it may impact the polling result. Please speak to us for further details on this.

Data Exports : Certainly, the data can be exported into the common data formats for analysis and import within other environments.

Voting Systems and Compliance

Voting systems are used within formal or informal settings. In some areas governmental regulations enforces certain structures to ensure auditability and compliance of the results generated. For example, Shareholder meetings often still require (specific) hardware solutions for the result to create legal validity. For more information on compliance and audits, please contact us.
