Anyone here knows a good alternative to polls for voting system? Currently I am having problems that some people cannot vote, or if they vote it says that they do not have access and so on.
People that were never on site, cannot vote ..
I personally think that there should be some nice ajax voting system, commercial or not commercial to try out, but all solutions I see are or very ugly and based on tables or just bad.

Have you looked through all the Poll addons at http://devot-ee.com/search/results/search&keywords=polls&channel=addons&addon_version_support=ee2/ ?

Actually I use one of them, and I have a lot of reports that people cannot vote, some strange error messages and so on ... i tried 3 of them. My client is not satisfied with them.

Have you asked the developer of the Poll addon for support? Also it may be a known issue and it’s been fixed in the latest version so worth checking.

no answer on support issue, latest version installed.
I know for all these things, I am asking for an alternative? any ok poll scripts out there? comercial also are worth considering. Some scripts that can work outside of EE also?

I don’t use poll scripts very often but there are many 3rd party scripts around, eg http://www.hotscripts.com/category/scripts/php/scripts-programs/polls-voting/ has a lot listed.

Thank you, I was more interested if somebody had any experience in using some of those scripts so I do not experiment of there are good solutions.
