Our analysis

AI-assisted

The Crowdsignal Dashboard plugin enables you to create and manage polls, surveys, quizzes, and ratings directly from your WordPress admin. It aggregates all your projects in one place, allowing for real-time response analysis and result exportation. This plugin is suitable for users who want to engage their audience through feedback mechanisms integrated into their WordPress site.

It works with both the Block Editor and the Classic Editor, offering various blocks for polls and surveys, as well as features like a feedback button and Net Promoter Score calculations. Users can also access an old poll editor through a specific URL if they prefer the previous functionality.

Best for: This plugin suits WordPress users looking to gather feedback through polls and surveys.

What it does well

  • Allows creation and management of polls, surveys, and quizzes
  • Real-time response analysis and result exportation
  • Compatible with both Block Editor and Classic Editor
  • Provides various feedback mechanisms like feedback buttons and NPS tracking
  • Developed by Automattic, a reputable author

Where it falls short

  • Rating of 2.7 out of 5 from 34 ratings indicates mixed user satisfaction
  • Some strings may not be translated when polls and surveys are embedded
  • The old poll editor is not recommended for use

Verdict

Crowdsignal Dashboard offers a range of tools for audience engagement, but its mixed ratings suggest potential areas for improvement.

Automattic's own description of Crowdsignal Dashboard, lightly tidied.

* Poll: Create polls and get your audience’s opinion.
* Survey Embed: Create surveys in minutes with 14 question types and embed them into your page.
* Feedback Button: A floating and always visible button that allows your audience to share feedback anytime.
* Measure NPS: Calculate your Net Promoter Score! Collect feedback and track customer satisfaction over time.

Some strings are not translated when polls and surveys are embedded. You will have to translate them using a language pack on Crowdsignal.com.

Development of the plugin takes place in this GitHub repository. Contributions are welcome!

The Classic Editor

If you are a long time user of this plugin and you still use the classic post editor, the best way to create polls is through your Crowdsignal account where you have a number of different ways to share polls (and surveys). However, up to version 2.2.6, this plugin had an “Add Poll” button above the post editor that opened a very basic poll editor. That “Add Poll” button has since been removed but if you would still like to use it, open up the wp-admin dashboard on your WordPress site. Add “admin.php?page=polls&action=create-poll” to the end of the URL, after “wp-admin/” so it looks like https://example.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=polls&action=create-poll and you will see the old poll editor. Bookmark that URL if you still want to use that poll editor. We do not recommend using version 2.2.6 of the plugin as you will miss out on many bug fixes and new features added since then.
