Use cases & best practices (Poll)  

What can I use the Poll web part for?

Poll helps you turn passive intranet visitors into active participants by letting them share opinions and vote on questions that matter to your organization. It's flexible enough to support anything from a lighthearted daily question to a more structured knowledge check.

You might use it to:

• Run a daily or weekly opinion poll on your intranet home page to spark conversation
• Gather quick feedback on a new policy, benefit, or workplace change before rolling it out fully
• Test employee understanding with an end-of-topic question after training or onboarding content
• Let employees vote on options for events, team activities, or company gifts 
  Surface real-time sentiment on a topical question and share the results back with your audience
• Run the same poll across multiple sites to reach a wider audience without duplicating setup 

Any time you want to hear directly from your employees, Poll helps you start the conversation and see the results as they come in.
