Votumio as an alternative to Quizizz

Both run quizzes that people answer from their own devices. Quizizz, now called Wayground, is a classroom platform; Votumio is a plain tool for quizzes, tests, polls and retrospectives in any room.

The short version

Quizizz (renamed Wayground) is built for schools: a large library of teacher-made quizzes, game elements, homework assignments and class management. Votumio has no class rosters and no game layer. You create a quiz or a test, share a link or QR code, and people answer from their phones.

What Votumio has for quizzes and tests

  • Live quizzes: a countdown per question, points, and a leaderboard at the end.
  • Self-paced tests with single and multiple correct answers, weighted points, partial credit and grades.
  • Questions pasted as text, with the correct answers marked, become a quiz or a test in one step.
  • Results as a PDF or a PowerPoint deck; event content is deleted automatically afterwards.

When Votumio fits better

  • Your audience is adults — a team, a training group, a conference — rather than a school class.
  • You also need polls or team retrospectives in the same tool.
  • You want participants to join with no app and no account, and nothing kept once the event is over.

When Quizizz fits better

  • You teach a school class and want rosters, homework and progress over a term.
  • You want to pick from a large library of ready-made quizzes and game modes.

Questions and answers

Can students take a Votumio test at their own pace?

Yes. In a test each participant goes through the questions in their own order and time, with weighted points, partial credit, a grade and a review at the end.

Does Votumio have a library of ready-made quizzes?

There is a small gallery of templates, but Votumio is built for your own questions: type them, or paste them as text from a document or ChatGPT.

Do participants need an app or an account?

No. Participants open a link or scan a QR code on their phones. There is no app to install and no account to create. A browser on a phone or a laptop is enough.
