Simple Poll
Simple Poll lets teams create polls and surveys directly in Slack channels, direct messages, and group direct messages.
What Simple Poll is
Simple Poll lets teams create polls and surveys directly in Slack channels, direct messages, and group direct messages. It supports ranked-choice questions, recurring check-ins, and surveys containing up to 20 questions. Poll settings can make responses anonymous, limit votes, allow voters to add options, hide results, or close automatically. Survey answers appear in one dashboard and can be exported as CSV. The Free plan includes unlimited polls and up to five options per poll, but a workspace can add only 100 responses in a calendar month; further responses wait until the next month. Premium costs $49/month when billed annually ($588/year) per workspace, for 1–24 members, with unlimited responses, up to 45 options, surveys, and API access. The API creates or retrieves polls and reads results, but cannot schedule polls. Enterprise pricing is custom. Simple Poll says it is GDPR compliant, ISO 27001 certified, and encrypts data in transit and at rest.
