Give Every Employee a Voice — And Make Decisions That Stick
MangoApps Ballots & Voting replaces email chains and paper votes with a secure, digital platform that collects real-time employee feedback, enforces structured voting, and auto-approves decisions when thresholds are met.
Why Most Workplace Voting Falls Apart
Email polls, paper ballots, and manual vote-counting create confusion, low participation, and decisions that lack credibility. Organizations need a better way.
Decisions Made in the Dark
Important policy changes, representative elections, and project approvals often happen without structured employee input — eroding trust and buy-in.
Email Surveys Get Ignored
Reply-all emails and informal polls get buried in inboxes. You never know who voted, who abstained, or whether the outcome is truly representative.
No Audit Trail or Accountability
Without structured voting records, audit trails, or configurable visibility settings, dispute resolution is impossible and compliance becomes a liability.
Create Ballots in Minutes, Not Days
Any authorized user can launch a ballot in minutes — no IT ticket required. Define the topic, set voting dates, configure result visibility, and instantly notify all eligible voters. Full control from one clean interface.
- Set voting start and end date/time
- Rich text ballot description with document attachments
- Configure who can see results (voters only, everyone, or hidden until close)
- Instant real-time notifications to all voters upon launch
Document Ballots & Person Ballots — Built for Every Decision
MangoApps supports two ballot types to match the real decisions organizations face. Document Ballots let teams vote on proposals, policies, or initiatives. Person Ballots enable democratic elections for representatives, committee seats, or leadership roles.
- Document Ballot: approve, reject, or abstain on proposals and policies
- Person Ballot: elect representatives and committee members fairly
- Attach supporting documents to give voters full context
- Ballot type sets the tone and expectation for each vote
Flexible Voting Options With Optional Comments
Every ballot supports Affirmative, Negative, and Abstain voting — ensuring all voices are captured, including those who choose to stay neutral. Comments can be configured as required, optional, or disabled per vote type, giving you precise control over the quality of feedback.
- Affirmative, Negative, and Abstain vote options
- Required or optional comments per vote type
- Comments drive richer feedback and shared context
- Abstain option ensures participation without forcing a position
Real-Time Results With Full Audit Trail
As votes come in, admins and authorized viewers see live pie charts, voter-level breakdowns, and comment threads — all from the ballot results page. Export results to XLS for reporting, compliance, or archival purposes. Nothing gets lost.
- Live pie charts and tabular breakdowns as votes are cast
- Per-voter record showing vote choice and comments
- Export to XLS for compliance reporting
- Visibility settings control who can see results before and after close
Auto-Approval When Consensus Is Reached
Tired of waiting for a quorum that's already been met? Configure ballots to automatically transition to 'Approved' status once affirmative votes hit your defined threshold. No manual intervention, no delays — decisions move forward the moment they're ready.
- Set a custom affirmative vote % threshold for auto-approval
- Ballot status updates automatically — no admin action required
- All stakeholders notified immediately upon approval
- Configurable per ballot or set as a global admin default
Auto-Managed Voter Lists — Always Up to Date
Voter eligibility is tied directly to team membership, so your lists stay accurate automatically. New members added to a team are enrolled in active ballots. Members who leave are removed. No spreadsheet maintenance, no manual roster updates.
- Voter lists update automatically as team membership changes
- New team members added mid-ballot receive immediate notification
- Manual override available for special ballot configurations
- Group-based eligibility works across departments and locations
Smart Notifications Keep Voters Engaged
Voters receive real-time notifications when a ballot is launched, updated, or closing soon. Automated reminders fire one day before the ballot closes — ensuring participation without constant manual follow-up. Admins control exactly which notifications are sent.
Everything You Need for Secure, Structured Voting
Ballots & Voting integrates natively into the MangoApps platform — no third-party apps, no extra licenses.
