I've tried most of the other free polls listed here and this is the only one that works well with Internet Explorer 10. I like that you can choose to use Ajax or not.
IE 10 seems to often have Ajax issues. So you can just turn off Ajax if you want to keep your IE10 users happy.
Seems that MijoPolls uses the exact same database structure as the old "Ace Polls". Just copy the Ace Polls database tables and change the table name prefixes to mijopolls and your existing Ace Polls work fine in MijoPolls.

Does everything well, and for all people making the bad comments... well go and pay $65 to the greedy developers that provide little more. A few minor issues like the messages saying you can vote every 24 hours even though the "only one vote per IP" is checked. Minor indeed and well done to the developers.
I installed this extension - and immediately received a PHP error.
Tried to let the developer know - but his site say that I must PAY money to "get support". Pay money just to inform the developer that his product generates an error? Fat chance!
I continued nevertheless, and created a poll. Publish it and received a fatal SQL error on a "white screen".
Even installed the extension on another live site - same problem.
I then tried to post these errors on this product review page - and got blocked by the moderator.
So these are the options:
1) There is no place to point out errors unless you "pay" for the priviledge.
2) This review page will not allow detailed errors to be posted.
3) Go elsewhere!
For all of this - 0/10. Bad bad bad! Bad product, bad business model, and plain ole frustrating bad.

Glad to see free extensions adapting the new Joomla versions so quickly.
The installation and setup was very easy, I set up my polls page in 5 minutes.
Thank you for offering all of this for free.

MijiPolls installs nicely and is easy to configure and create polls. The pie chart view is nice. There seems to be one limitation - you can't display more than 1 poll in a module at a time, which is something I want to do. This also appears to be a an exact duplicate of AcePolls as best I can tell.
I was looking for a very simple polls module and this was it.
Simple to install and simple to use. Not limited by options and very simple to edit.
Only two improvements would be the ability to display the latest poll rather than just the first or by poll ID and the ability to auto-tweet/auto-share polls as they are added and the results when they close.
Very good for a free extension.
