Everyone wants to know they're a valued member of the team, and thoughtful new employee surveys are a simple, yet potent way to confirm that value and esteem from the earliest stages of employment on.

With a newly improved authoring experience and Series A investment, this has already been a big year at Polly HQ -- but we’re just warming up. There’s still a lot more to get excited about!

With Slack's Developer Platform launching Block Kit today, a new design framework that give Slack apps (like us) more visual flexibility and more control over message layout structure, it was a no-brainer that we wanted to utilize these new features to build a more interactive and visually rich Polly experience in Slack.

2019 is going to be a huge year for Polly users.  We’ve spent the past four years of this company almost exclusively focused on building a valuable product. Our objective has always been to listen to our users, and building a compelling product based off their feedback. That’s what we’ve done, and that’s what we’re going to continue doing, but at a faster pace.

Time-based polls and surveys are great and all, but what if there was a way that you could programmatically send polls/surveys and pull results without having to go in and manually do it every time?

What a long but exhilarating two days it's been at Frontiers! Some of the Polly team went out to San Francisco and most recently New York for Slack's annual user conference, Frontiers.

Being able to create polls and surveys in Slack to quickly gather feedback is one thing –– but being able to collaborate and share on some of your most important information is vital to keeping your team humming along and working more efficiently. Over at Polly, we've been working hard to make it easier to share, collaborate, consume, and engage with your peers day-to-day.

Whether you're reviewing design changes, ranking your top location choices for your next team retreat, or finalizing departmental budget line items, ranking your choices and assigning numerical values to your poll options is an easy and effective way to determine preferences. Having the ability to rank options or allocate points in a poll was one of our most requested features, and we're so happy to announce that it's finally available for paid plans. If you're not already on a paid plan, start a free 30-day trial today to try out rank and point allocation polls – we'd love to hear what you think!

We’ve made some adjustments to Polly's pricing model

 TLDR;
Polly has made a significant change to the pricing to more accurately reflect the value our beloved users get from the tool. We've moved to fixed pricing instead of pricing based on workspace size.

Whether you're creating surveys for just your team or for your whole organization, there's a pretty good chance that you'd want to take a look at your results through different lens. While having all results display is important for a high-level overview, sometimes it's helpful to filter and compartmentalize your results. You may even find that you uncover insights that you wouldn't have been able to see before with the raw results.
