Airmeet
We never could really find a scenario where Airmeet really excelled over other major conferencing and webinar platforms. Especially post-COVID. It seemed overly complicated to set up an event and their support was somewhat difficult to deal with. The major platforms, conversely, made many improvements at a fraction marketed at a fraction of the cost. So most of Airmeet is really gimmicky from my experience. The students found it somewhat cumbersome.

From my experience, Arena works well for client events like entertainment, panel discussions, motivational talks, etc. with a drink and chat afterward. However, I can also imagine it working well for larger events like conferences as it was really easy to add additional rooms and stages. Attendees can easily navigate to the sessions they want to attend from the event's central lobby.

It was always a bit cumbersome to use. It was a great concept but poorly executed.
