DirectPoll vs. Paperform

DirectPoll lets you create a poll in a minute and run it live. Your audience opens the vote link or scans a QR code and votes from their phones - no app to install, no account to create. The results appear live on a results screen you project, or right on your slides with the DirectPoll add-in for PowerPoint on Windows and the companion app for PowerPoint on macOS. You run the poll from the cockpit: prepare your questions in advance or on the spot, move through them at your own pace, and your audience cannot skip ahead.

Paperform is a modern online form builder designed for small and growing businesses that want their forms to run the business, not just collect data. Start on a generous free plan and use a familiar doc‑style editor to build anything from simple contact forms to full landing‑page‑style experiences—no code, no designer and no clunky drag‑and‑drop required. Where some tools optimize for “quick and basic” and others focus on sheer feature breadth, Paperform is optimized for SMB workflows.
