As an alternative to using Breakroom's built-in [question management](https://docs.breakroom.tech/running-your-event/moderator-tools/audience-questions) system, you can tie your own question tracking software, spreadsheets, forms, polls, or any other webpage to the [Question button](https://docs.breakroom.tech/getting-started/using-the-conference-system#submitting-questions) located in the [conference tools](https://docs.breakroom.tech/getting-started/using-the-conference-system). Doing so will provide users with a pop-up where they can interact with your content.
