Audience Response Systems from Group Dynamics

The use of an Audience Response System and Interactive Voting in a meeting increases the effectiveness, enjoyment and overall success of an event. There are a myriad of different applications and uses, but they all stem from a simple method:

- Give everyone a keypad or handset

- Ask them to press some buttons

- See and share the results immediately

Additional features such as text voting give everyone a voice aswell as a vote, enabling complete, but controlled, interaction with your audience.

Whether you're looking for "Who Wants to be a Millionaire?" style quiz nights, staff surveys, participatory budgeting, brainstorming ideas, public consultation or teambuilding, the audience response systems from Group Dynamics can enliven and enrich your event.

For audiences from 5 to 5,000, audience response equals better meetings. Feel free to browse our website or contact us to find out more!

What’s in a name? Terminology for a technology. Group Dynamics have been in this industry for over 25 years now, and we have seen many technologies (and companies!) come and go. What we have also seen is a proliferation of terminology that has come out into the marketplace to describe or define the systems themselves. What are they?

Onscreen Charting

You can often be unsure if everyone in your audience can see the main screen, and whether the questions have been understood correctly. Our Messenger handset resolves this problem with its ability to display both the question and the options on each handset before and during a vote.

Additionally, it allows audience response feedback such as onscreen charting. As soon as a vote has completed, charts can be sent to each individual LCD screen. This powerful feature is an incredibly useful tool during an event as it allows participants to refer to results even after they have disappeared from the main screen.

Branding

Much more than just a voting system, the Messenger can display logos or information during a session. These can be changed as often as necessary throughout the course of the day, and we can even create them for you there and then.

Presenters can even use them to show key points for every single slide in their presentation if they want to!

Sample Client Testimonial

"The pre-event support we received from the technician and other members of the Group Dynamics team was excellent.

The support the technician provided on the day was also excellent.  She arrived on time and immediately became a member of the events team, assisting us with set up and take down of the voting pads equipment.

Throughout the day she remained cool, calm and collected and provided first class support.  It was a real asset having a true “expert” in our midst as she was able to deal with any questions and queries from presenters or the events team.

Having the technician there was definitely of benefit to us on the day, and meant that the events team were able to concentrate on other event arrangements.  The technician worked closely with my colleague to support her throughout the afternoon and she has said that the level of support provided by the technician enabled her to feel 'safe and supported.'"
