Export results to Excel

How to export the voting results to Excel and what information you find in the spreadsheet.

Mentimeter works seamlessly with Excel, letting you export the results from your presentation directly to a spreadsheet.

Please note: Exporting session results to Excel requires a paid Mentimeter plan.

How to export the results to Excel in Menti Live

Once you have received votes on your presentation, you can export the results from the results page.

To open the results page from the presentation editor, click on the Results tab at the top of the screen.

Once on the results page, click on the Export button at the top of the Responses section and select 'Spreadsheet (XLSX)'.

What's in the exported spreadsheet

In the spreadsheet, you can find different sheets:

The first sheet lets you follow the individual voters, as they are assigned a number. You can see what they have answered on each question.

The second sheet presents the voting results per question. In this example, an Image Choice question, you can see how many votes the options have gotten.

The third sheet shows the same information as the second one, but is different per voting session. The export to Excel will also include results from previous sessions.

Restricted Excel exports

Subscription owners and admins have the possibility to restrict information in and access to the Excel export on a workspace level in order to improve anonymity.

If you are an admin or an owner you can enable this restriction in the Workspace Settings menu:

There, scroll down to the Limited spreadsheet exports option and toggle Limit exports:

When toggled, the following restrictions will apply:

  • Excel export is disabled if there are fewer than 10 participants in any session of a presentation

  • The timestamp (date) is removed from the Excel export (Responses and Q&A)

What's in the exported spreadsheet?

The export will have two tabs, or sheets:

On the first sheet (participants) you'll see one column that lists each session (every time results have been reset a new session is started), and a second with the participants in each session, each given a number. The following columns list each question, and how the participant answered.

The Second sheet (By Question) includes columns listing the Session number, the name of the Menti Form, Question number, Type, Title, each possible response, and the number of times each response was selected (as a percentage)
