Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I operate monthly sales training meeting from our home office with our 6 satellite offices and use Mentimeter as a sales training tool.

The response to the new information, as well as product knowledge retention has vastly improved.

Pros

  • The autosave feature
  • Crisp, fun on screen graphics
  • Easy to learn in under an hour

Cons

  • Instructions are somewhat vague in operating the presenter mode
  • More contest templates to choose from

Return on Investment

  • Drastically improved how our team retains new product knowledge
  • Ability to customize questions from technical to general knowledge to keep participants engaged
  • Helps management spot the weak areas in previous training, based on incorrect answers during the quiz

Program Specialist in Engineering at Pacific Ocean Energy Trust (1-10 employees employees)

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We have used it as an interactive platform during workshops in which we were building a research landscape. This was a virtual event and allowed everyone to keep engaged by participating and sharing their answers anonymously.

Pros

  • Word clouds.
  • Allows people to be anonymous.
  • Captures all the feedback and allows you to download it.

Cons

  • The design aspect is lacking a bit in my opinion.

Most Important Features

  • Anonymity
  • Downloadable feedback
  • All of the different ways to collect data.

Return on Investment

  • People have to be more alert during presentations because it asks people to participate.
  • We actually get good feedback rather then if we did a presentation without Mentimeter.
