"Five years of excellent service"
Luke provides personal support and keeps everything running smoothly. My only gripe is that if you don't pay extra for ballot preparation, it's tricky. But for a small fee, they handle everything. We conduct electronic elections through this trusted third party, including during the pandemic, though we had used them long before COVID.

"Going digital made easy"
It's user-friendly, has an intuitive design, and is convenient. It would benefit from added security features. We'd suggest giving it a try. It's simple and easy to use for surveys and polls.
E
Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)
"Voting tools"
The top features are its online nature and transparency. It's useful for surveys during every session or training. eBallot provides secure, closed voting events. It's suitable for K-12, law firms, award shows, colleges, food festivals, and more. There's no live chat support, only FAQs, which is a drawback. They should add chat support and provide helpful links. We use it for annual elections, surveys, and transparency.

"Positive eBallot experience"
eBallot is fantastic. It's designed for voting, which helps companies understand what people really think. I have no complaints and can't find any faults. I don't have specific advice. It's great for businesses to gauge customer or potential buyer opinions.

"Board Vote - Partner Election"
Our consultant was excellent. He asked the right questions and clearly explained how proxies would work. There's little to complain about. If I had to note something, it's that the consultants are so confident in their expertise that they might not share our sense of urgency. We used remote voting during the pandemic, but their process is so much simpler than our old method that we'll stick with it even in the office.
S
Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)
"Professional and prompt election services"
The admin dashboard gives you complete oversight of your election, including who voted and their choices. It also offers statistics. Downloading reports could be simpler, and the interface could be more attractive. I've never needed support for any issues. We've been able to compare results year after year, which is useful. All historical election data is kept, and having that information is valuable.
G
Google Forms Review
"Informative and interactive voting tool"
I'm impressed by the depth and quality of information provided. It doesn't just show basic results; it offers extensive details. Their experience is evident from the many companies using them. However, I'm not fond of the pricing. It seems like similar features are available on many other platforms, and the main benefit is the rich data options. I can survey my team and gain better insights into customers. I can collect a wealth of information from just a few polls.

"eBallot Overview"
I appreciate that it works on any internet-connected device. People are more likely to take time to vote if the ballot is convenient. While it's widely accessible, it's not a cure for low voter participation, as it still leaves out those without resources or time. eBallot allows me to spend more time researching candidates and their positions. I can review the ballot ahead of time and return when I'm ready to cast my choices.
C
Chief Innovation Officer
"Decent product, dishonest company"
The platform functions fine, offers numerous features, and works as intended. It's not particularly user-friendly, but it gets the job done. However, their business tactics are unethical. They ignore cancellation requests. They exploit the 6-month clause in their contract to make termination timing nearly impossible. When you ask to cancel, they send you knowledge base links to broken forms. Only consider them if you can use a disposable credit card number you can disable, because they will keep billing you indefinitely. The interface is hard for users to navigate. Look elsewhere. When the pandemic hit and we went remote, we moved our official meetings online and cast votes through eBallot.
M
Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)
"Simple and straightforward"
Using eBallot for our yearly Board of Directors vote is a breeze. We put in very little effort. There's nothing negative I can say. I've only used it for two years, but our firm has been with them longer. I'm not aware of any past problems.
