The confluence of the normalization of hybrid and fully remote work models and growing calls for inclusivity and flexibility from employers has created a more pressing need for systems of virtual team engagement and feedback than ever before. A recent report by Morgan Stanley cites that nearly 70% of big U.S. companies are adopting a flexible work model. The pandemic was the impetus for companies everywhere to adopt virtual meeting technology to continue operations in the midst of remote work orders. However, as once-temporary measures become the permanent future of enterprise operations, new SaaS solutions are needed to support engagement and connection among remote workforces.

The Poll Everywhere embedded app within Webex gives users the ability to seamlessly integrate engagement and feedback activities into their existing content and workflows, saving time and effort for both meeting presenters and participants while also protecting user data. Furthermore, the activities users create within Poll Everywhere for Webex are fully functional and can be reused, modified, and analyzed in depth when presenters log in to their accounts.

“Today’s hybrid work environment increases the need for streamlined experiences across multiple businesses apps,” said Anurag Dhingra, Chief Technology Officer, Cisco Webex. “With Poll Everywhere available as an Embedded App within Webex, users can now readily discover and integrate new capabilities into their meetings and collaboration experience.”
