Audience Response Systems - Key
Features of OptionPower®
OptionPower has a variety of group
response system features designed to
make your interactive presentations
simple and successful. Harnessing the
vast power of Microsoft® PowerPoint®,
OptionPower opens up a world of
features that allow you to create
unique, interactive presentations. All
that is required of you is your creativity
and your PowerPoint know-how.
Before the Meeting

Microsoft® Word® Import: OptionPower saves you time and
trouble with its ability to import questions from Microsoft
Word files directly into your interactive presentation, while
still retaining your ability to edit questions and question
order with OptionPower.

The System-Ready Checklist: The System-Ready Checklist
clearly shows when your presentation is ready to go. The
red, yellow and green signal lets you see where you have
unresolved issues and links you right to the solution. Use
the System-Ready Checklist to ensure a flawless
presentation without any unwanted surprises.

User-Friendly Presentation Controls: Because
OptionPower is a PowerPoint add-in, interactive slides
automatically match the look and feel of your
presentations. Edit themes and objects, change timings,
and control animations just as you would normally do.
OptionPower leverages what you already know, eliminating
the need for expensive and time-consuming software
training.

Roster Import and Export: Rosters allow you to assign
individuals to audience response systems for the purpose
of tracking their responses. This is extremely valuable
when conducting quizzes or tests in training or classroom
learning sessions because OptionPower immediately tallies
the results/scores for each of your participants. The roster
import and export tool lets you enter a variety of
information about participants, including their first and last
name as well as the team or teams they are assigned to (if
used in conjunction with the OptionPower Group
Competition Module). A templated Excel spreadsheet, the
roster can be imported into your OptionPower meeting and
can later be exported back to Excel where it can be easily
edited.

During The Meeting:

Poll Directly from PowerPoint: Polling slides are contained
within your PowerPoint presentation. You navigate through
them as you would any other group of slides.













On-the-Fly Question Tools: Pose a question to the
audience at any point during your presentation, poll, and
see immediate results.

Demographic Breakdowns: Audience polling results can be
viewed by participant demographics to show the similarities
and differences in audience responses from different
groups. For example, learn how management's view lines
up with the front line's view.

Flexible Display Options: Display polling results using all
the capabilities of Microsoft® Chart®.

Dual-Screen Control Option: Simultaneously run both the
design screen and the polling screen using Microsoft's
multiple monitor support. Manipulate your presentation on
one screen while your audience is focused on the
presentation on the main display.

Multiple Hardware Platform Support: Use different types of
interactive audience response systems, including radio
frequency (RF) and infrared (IR) audience response
systems, to support your specific meeting needs.

After The Meeting:

Reporting Options: Output a fully formatted Microsoft®
Excel® report or use PowerPoint’s print and web publishing
capabilities. Take even more advantage of this powerful
tool by purchasing custom reports from OTI.

Data Consolidation and Retrieval Utility: Because
OptionPower data is stored in a relational database, you
can instantly consolidate polling results from multiple
sessions and later access the data for comparison and
contrast.
