"Super easy to use, highly recommended for quiz, competitions & L&D's."
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"
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.

"Engaging Classroom That Work Great with Google Slides"
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"
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.

"Slido Empowers Shy Audiences to Ask Questions Freely"
What do you like best about Slido?

I like that its questions feature encourages participation from audiences that are typically shy. We have been running our natural capital community of practice seminars for a few years on Zoom and even when a fair amount of people join in, there is never anyone brave to go on live and ask questions. Last time we used Slido and the questions kept coming in. It turns out, people just wanted someone else to ask the questions for them and Slido empowered them to ask freely. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Slido?

No downsides that I can think of. It did its job fine. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Interactive Meetings with Seamless Integration"
What do you like best about Slido?

I use Slido to make meetings and presentations more interactive. It helps me run live polls, collect questions (even anonymously), and get instant feedback from the audience. It's simple, engaging, and makes sessions feel more organized and professional. What I like most about Slido is the live polling and anonymous Q&A feature. It makes it easy for everyone to participate, even those who are shy, and gives instant feedback that keeps meetings and presentations engaging and interactive. I also appreciate how it integrates smoothly with presentation tools like Microsoft PowerPoint and meeting platforms like Zoom, making live sessions more interactive without interrupting the flow. We switched to Slido from another tool because it integrates better with our presentation tools, feels more intuitive for live Q&A, and was more cost-effective for our team. It was very easy to set up; we set everything up quickly, and the team picked it up right away without much training. It's been reliable, easy to use, and works really well for our events. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Slido?

I think the free version has some limitations, especially with advanced features and participant limits. Sometimes customization options for polls and layouts could be more flexible. I'd like more poll types, better customization for colors and layouts, and more detailed analytics. It would also be great if some advanced features were available in lower plans.

"Easy PowerPoint Integration with Flexible Slide Editing on Web or PP"
What do you like best about Slido?

Really liked how easy it was to use and to integrate into PowerPoint. I liked how you can manage and amend each slide from either PP or the webiste. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Slido?

There wasn't very much I disliked. It took me a minute to figure out what I was doing but once I had understood this, it was very easy Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Goodbye Awkward Silences, Hello Real Engagement"
What do you like best about Slido?

Slido is a fantastic tool for making presentations feel like a real conversation instead of a one-way lecture. What stands out most to me is the anonymous Q&A, which really levels the playing field and gives even the quietest people in the room a comfortable way to ask thoughtful, insightful questions without feeling any pressure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Slido?

The PowerPoint integration feels incredibly clunky. It often lags or even crashes at the worst possible moment—right when I’m trying to build momentum during a live presentation. I also find the pricing structure for the “Pro” features pretty stingy, since it puts basic necessities like data exports behind a paywall that feels more like a ransom than a fair upgrade.

"Keeping Online and In Person Audiences Engaged"
What do you like best about Slido?

What I appreciate most about Slido is its ability to engage both in-person and online audiences so effectively. It really helped close the gap between these two formats, ensuring everyone had an equal chance to participate and ask questions. I found Slido straightforward to learn, easy to navigate, and simple to integrate into my presentation. The fact that I could use it for free was an added bonus. Making use of the Q&A and quiz features kept both the audience and myself, as the presenter, actively involved throughout the session, which made delivering training more interactive and enjoyable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Slido?

Honestly, I can't think of any drawbacks. It was extremely easy to use and integrate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Successful Community Engagement Event"
What do you like best about Slido?

Every part of the system was easy to use, the help center was spot on and answered all questions quickly and efficiently. The integration with Google Slides was seamless. We used polls, and live Q&A for an in-person event and the community LOVED it and everyone old to young was able to participate with their smart phones. I only used it once, but will be coming back again to use it again. Loved the option to buy for a "one time" use of the upgraded features. The data export is also perfect. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Slido?

My ONLY tiny issue was that it took me a few tries to get the Google Slide extension to download, but I think that was a user error. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
