Editor's takeMentimeter built its reputation on live polling but added Survey Mode so participants can answer at their own pace, useful for async feedback collection. It has reached 500 million voters and holds ISO 27001:2022 certification alongside GDPR alignment. The catch is the free tier: hitting 50 participants in a month triggers a 30-day lockout, and the platform still lacks branching logic that dedicated survey tools offer.

What happens when I hit the free plan participant limit?

The free plan allows unlimited slides but caps at 50 participants per month. Exceeding that triggers a 30-day lockout from presenting until the next cycle or an upgrade.

Is Mentimeter SOC 2 certified?

No, not directly. Mentimeter holds ISO 27001:2022 certification and GDPR alignment, but Microsoft's app certification confirms it does not carry its own SOC 2 report.

PricingFree tier available, paid yearly or $100/survey

Editor's takeOpinionX forces respondents to trade off between options with pairwise ranking, sharpening priority data. That approach has attracted over 13,000 teams, including Google and Disney. Billing stays unusual, since OpinionX skips monthly plans for yearly subscriptions or a flat $100 per survey.

Can I pay for OpinionX monthly?

No. OpinionX only offers yearly subscriptions or a one-time pay-per-survey option priced at $100, with no monthly billing available.

What does OpinionX's free plan include?

Unlimited surveys and participants for data collection, but analysis tools like segmentation only load data from a survey's first 10 participants.
