Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: SmartSite Plus at none against Poll Everywhere's 1. SmartSite Plus also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.1). Poll Everywhere's advantage is ratings volume (3K vs 2). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
