What is the Evalandgo PowerPoint add-in for?

Alert
Feature available on the LIVE+, PRO+ and PRO+ Team plans (free trial included).

Presenting in PowerPoint and want your room to react live? The Evalandgo Live add-in drops your polls and quizzes right into your slides. Your audience votes from their phones and the results appear in real time, without ever interrupting your slideshow.

Make your audience vote without leaving your slideshow

The Evalandgo Live add-in turns a slide into a live poll, quiz or brainstorming. Your participants answer from their phones and the results appear directly in the slide, in front of the whole room.

During the slideshow, you stay in control. You open and close the votes whenever you want, you move from one question to the next, you go back, you show the correction or the ranking, and you track the number of connected participants live.

InfoGood to know The add-in is not a standalone tool. It displays the Live sessions you have already prepared in your Evalandgo account. You create your questions in your account.

What you need before you start

To use the add-in, gather three things:

  1. An Evalandgo account on a LIVE+, PRO+ or PRO+ Team plan. A trial account works too.
  2. At least one Live session already created in your account, with your questions ready.
  3. PowerPoint installed on a computer.

NotesGood to know During the trial, a Live session welcomes up to 20 participants at once. On the LIVE+, PRO+ and PRO+ Team plans, the limit rises to 200 participants per session.

Install the add-in in 5 steps

  1. Open PowerPoint, then go to Insert > My Add-ins.
  2. Search for Evalandgo Live and insert the add-in. It appears in your slide.
  3. Click Sign in and enter your Evalandgo account credentials.
  4. Choose the Live session to attach to the slide. A preview appears right away.
  5. Start the slideshow (F5 key). The session becomes interactive and the control bar appears.

Run your session smoothly during the presentation

For a smooth session, we recommend controlling it from the dedicated remote. It lets you manage the session (open the votes, change question, show the ranking) from your phone, without staying behind your computer.

If you use PowerPoint's Presenter View, keep it for your notes. Avoid clicking directly in the copy of the add-in shown on your presenter screen. And if the add-in stops responding to clicks in Presenter View, close and reopen PowerPoint.

InfoGood to know The remote is ideal if you move around the room. You keep control of the pace from your smartphone while the slide stays projected on screen.
