Both paid users and free users get the exact same features (which we cover in detail below) \u2014 the only difference is how many people you have actively participating in a standup.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><a href=\"#standuply\">Standuply:<\/a><\/strong>&nbsp;As of this writing, Standuply is a free standup bot for up to 3 users. For larger teams, pricing starts at $2 per user per month (on the monthly plan) but increases as you add more users. For example, if you had 40 users, then you\u2019d pay $3.50 per user.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><a href=\"#scrumgenius\">ScrumGenius:<\/a><\/strong> As of this writing, ScrumGenius only offers a free trial. After the trial is over, pricing starts at $2.50 per user per month (if on an annual plan).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><a href=\"#polly\">Polly:<\/a><\/strong> As of this writing, Polly has a free plan. Unlike the tools above, Polly doesn\u2019t limit how many users you have but how many responses. Polly\u2019s free plan limits your team to 25 responses a month. For example, let\u2019s say you have a team of 5 developers who do standups once a day. That means you\u2019ll have used up your free responses after one week.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"geekbot\">1.&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/geekbot.com\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Geekbot:<\/strong><\/a>&nbsp;A Free Standup Bot for Microsoft Teams&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/geekbot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/image3-2.png\" data-lightbox=\"gal[6627]\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"477\" data-src=\"https:\/\/geekbot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/image3-2-1024x477.png\" alt=\"Geekbot: Run standup meetings in Slack and Teams.\" class=\"wp-image-6628 lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1024px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1024\/477;width:768px;height:358px\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/geekbot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/image3-2-1024x477.png 1024w, https:\/\/geekbot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/image3-2-300x140.png 300w, https:\/\/geekbot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/image3-2-768x358.png 768w, https:\/\/geekbot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/image3-2.png 1226w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"477\" src=\"https:\/\/geekbot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/image3-2-1024x477.png\" alt=\"Geekbot: Run standup meetings in Slack and Teams.\" class=\"wp-image-6628\" style=\"width:768px;height:358px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/geekbot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/image3-2-1024x477.png 1024w, https:\/\/geekbot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/image3-2-300x140.png 300w, https:\/\/geekbot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/image3-2-768x358.png 768w, https:\/\/geekbot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/image3-2.png 1226w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/noscript><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"http:\/\/geekbot.com\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Geekbot<\/strong><\/a><strong>&nbsp;(our product) is a Microsoft Teams standup bot that is completely free for teams of 10 or fewer.<\/strong>&nbsp;When you\u2019re on the free plan, you get all of Geekbot\u2019s features, including <a href=\"https:\/\/geekbot.com\/templates\/\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/geekbot.com\/templates\/\">pre-filled templates<\/a>, a data-driven dashboard with metrics like participation rate, email summaries of your standups, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You\u2019ll only ever pay for Geekbot if you have more than 10 active users in a month.

That way, your workflow isn\u2019t disrupted, and you also won\u2019t forget about completing your standup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/geekbot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/image6.png\" data-lightbox=\"gal[6627]\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"757\" data-src=\"https:\/\/geekbot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/image6.png\" alt=\"Standup in Microsoft Teams. \" class=\"wp-image-6567 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/geekbot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/image6.png 768w, https:\/\/geekbot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/image6-300x296.png 300w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 768px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 768\/757;\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"757\" src=\"https:\/\/geekbot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/image6.png\" alt=\"Standup in Microsoft Teams. \" class=\"wp-image-6567\" srcset=\"https:\/\/geekbot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/image6.png 768w, https:\/\/geekbot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/image6-300x296.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/noscript><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Once you\u2019ve completed the standup, your answers are shared in the appropriate Microsoft Teams channel<\/strong>.
