Yes, StrawPoll allows a variety of customizations to make your poll fit your needs. You can allow voters to select multiple answers if needed. You can make the poll anonymous to ensure privacy and candidness. You can set a deadline for when the poll will automatically close. And you can customize the visibility of the results, deciding whether to show them right after voting, only after the poll closes, or keep them hidden altogether.

StrawPoll uses various measures to improve the reliability of the poll results on the platform. These include limiting voting through various rules such as IP checking or unique codes per participant, blocking VPN connections by default and CAPTCHA verification (Pro version only).
