It has collaborated closely with educators around the world to ensure EchoPoll exceeds their needs to create greater engagement and outcomes from learners in any environment, including:

- The ability to transform existing PowerPoint presentations, files, or websites into interactive Echo360 Poll Decks™ or EchoPoll™ sessions with its Companion App
- Seamless connectivity with all major LMS providers such as Canvas, D2L, Moodle, Anthology (Blackboard), and popular education and business applications like Zoom and GoTo Meeting.
- Instructor and administrator dashboards with metrics that assess engagement at the course, team, and individual learner level.
- Scalability and reliability, including 99.999% uptime and 24/7 customer support
Commenting on the latest move, President & CEO of Echo360, Murad Velani, said:
EchoPoll is polling, perfected — the culmination and next-generation technology innovation representing everything we’ve developed and advanced in educational polling since 2002. Thousands of instructors worldwide already trust Echo360 to support their inspired learning goals, and EchoPoll™ will introduce the power of SaaS-based educational polling to thousands more.
Velani added:
These innovative and interoperable EdTech SaaS platforms help our customers consolidate disparate vendor offerings by using a comprehensive portfolio of solutions from Echo360 that address their challenges of increasing costs, support, and scalability.
Echo360 is dedicated and proven to earn meaningful, collaborative relationships with its customers, partners, instructors and learners across every segment and geography. The startup serves 2 million learners and instructors at more than 1200 higher education institutions in North America, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia Pacific. The platform is built for the cloud and grounded in principles of learning equity, evidence, and engagement; instructors and learners around the world can use Echo360 from wherever they are, on any device, to create, record and consume content, give and receive feedback, and gain real-time insights along their inspired learning journey.
As a part of the development, Echo360 also announced new enhancements and future redesigns for its most popular products, EchoVideo and ExamView. EchoVideo, the company’s SaaS video management platform, is rolling out new features increasing interoperability, accessibility, and student engagement; ExamView, the famous exam creation and assessment platform utilized by some of the world’s most extensive education and trade publishers, will be redesigned and relaunched later this year as EchoExam with advanced compatibility, reporting, and mobile app features.
To celebrate the launch of EchoPoll, Echo360 will host a “Worldwide Week of Polling” virtual event from April 10 – 14th. Each day the startup will post a new EchoPoll link on its LinkedIn and Twitter feeds, inviting followers around the globe to answer an interactive question of the day, with results posted at the end of each day.
