Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: OSANA at none against Poll Everywhere's 1. OSANA also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Poll Everywhere's advantage is ratings volume (3K vs 3) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 6 months). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
