    We will be using Present+ when we have training sessions, show and tells and new product launches.

    Hopin is very suitable for large events involving 100+ people where there are only a couple of people speaking. You can have a bunch of features such as networking and all in all, is quite a professional experience to use. For smaller groups, It takes too much effort to set up and isn't worth using over Google Meet or Zoom.

    Pros
    WorkCast Corporation
    • Embedded webinars - embed your webinars directly into your landing pages!
    • Useful features - it's packed full of useful features, focusing on the ones that are going to genuinely be of use (i.e., there's no bloat).
    • Well supported - there's a full team at the end of a phone or email if you have any questions at all.

    • Awesome for managing several sets of panelists
    • Very easy to manage event attendees
    • Love the chat functionality during the events, enabling the audience to connect with each other
    • Hugely simple for anyone with little tech knowledge to design and run an event
    • Cost effective for the volume of events we run, where we need scale and quality
    • Live streaming an event is also very well catered for
    • Branding across the platform is simple to implement

    Cons
    WorkCast Corporation
    • The Presenter 'Pods' could do with tips to explain that these can be repositioned.
    • The questions/polls have room for improvement.

    • The biggest hangup we've encountered is from guest speakers who need to join us on either tablets or smartphones. Hopin doesn't play well with mobile devices for onscreen guests.
    • I'd like to see the broadcasts in vendor booths be recordable in the way broadcasts in the sessions or on the stage are.

    We most likely will, but with such a high annual renewal rate, we are forced to look at alternative solutions yearly when that license fee comes due

    I'm a pretty tech-savvy person but I still feel that Hopin was pretty user-friendly even for those of you who are less tech-savvy. Great thing is, you can play around and test the platform with the free version which allows you to get familiar with it before committing to the paid. I learned most of it on the free version which then made me more confident when deciding to use the paid version. Not only did it help me on the setup side, but it also proved to me that this was what we needed to do what we needed to do.

    For the most part you're able to get a response from a support person within a few minutes, but there was a stretch when Hopin was reshuffling its staff that it sometimes took 24-48 hours, which is too long. However, as long as the staff remains stable - which seems likely - then its Support team is usually quite responsive.

    Products such as GoToWebinar are great, but they never truly met our expectations or requirements. We used them for years, but the lack of audience engagement was poor, both in terms of when actually in the webinar and when promoting it. The most annoying feature was the fact the process was disjointed - to watch the webinar, you had to leave the landing page, which was massively frustrating.

    We were with a company before Hopin - we explored elsewhere due to cost. Pros were design and custom look. We moved to Hopin, it was innovative at the time, although the design wasn't strong the features were. The majority now have the same features. So we did leave Hopin for another platform again because we wanted a custom look, and we were preparing for hybrid. Hopin wasn't ready. We soon realised other platforms we came across are complex, difficult to use. We left and came back to Hopin.

    Return on Investment
    WorkCast Corporation
    • It's difficult to quantify the ROI financial return but we feel it's had a positive impact on our brand perception.

    • Without Hopin, it would have been impossible to host an event at the scale and user interface that we did, with the staff limitations we have. Hopin enabled us to execute a very high standard with limited resources. For example, before Hopin, we could only attract about 100-200 attendees. With Hopin, we 3x our registrations and attendees.
    • The data collected from their system on attendees allows us to more accurately speak to our target market based on their tracked habits during the event.
