For Webex

Live polls, quizzes and Q&A for Cisco Webex

Give any Webex meeting or webinar live, animated interaction. Build a poll, quiz or Q&A in PollsLive, share your screen on the results view, and drop the join link or QR in the Webex chat - attendees answer from their phones or a second tab and results update in real time for the whole room.

Step-by-step setup guide

Follow these steps for your next Webex session. No add-in required unless you opt into the advanced setup below.

  1. 1

    Create your session content

    Build polls, quizzes, word clouds, or Q&A in PollsLive before the Webex call. Works the same for small meetings and large webinars.

  2. 2

    Configure the questions

    Add your prompts and answer options. For webinars, moderated Q&A with upvotes helps surface the best questions from a big audience.

  4. 4

    Share your screen in Webex

    In the Webex meeting, share the browser tab with the PollsLive host view. Attendees should see the live chart, not a static slide.

    Tip: For webinars, assign a co-host to watch chat while you facilitate the poll.

  5. 5

    Post the link in Webex chat

    Paste the join link and PIN into chat. Attendees open it on any device — no Webex account required to vote.

Why hosts pair PollsLive with Webex

No per-host or per-event pricing, live formats Webex polls don't offer, and nothing for attendees to install - they join with a single link or QR. Votes are anonymous, and PollsLive is EU-hosted and privacy-first, so it fits meetings where data handling matters.

Frequently asked questions

Is there a Webex app to install?

No. You share your screen and paste the join link or QR in chat, so attendees join in the browser - nothing to install for you or them.

How do attendees join during a Webex call?

They scan the QR or open the link from the chat - no app and no account. Votes are anonymous.

Does it work for Webex webinars as well as meetings?

Yes. The same approach works for large webinars and small meetings alike, with no per-attendee fee.
