Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: UIC Business at 100% against Poll Everywhere's 30%. UIC Business also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 16.1). Poll Everywhere's advantage is rating (4.8 vs 4.0) and ratings volume (3K vs 1). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Poll Everywhere sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. UIC Business asks for nothing beyond the download.
Poll Everywhere holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Poll Everywhere has 3K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 30% of Poll Everywhere's written reviews are positive against 100% of UIC Business's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Poll Everywhere ships an update every 2 months, UIC Business every 6 months. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 16, 2026 respectively.
