User Testimonials
	Arena Virtual and Hybrid Events	Crowdcast
Likelihood to Recommend	Hire Space 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. IB Imogen Beech Copywriter / Content Writer Read full review	Crowdcast Crowdcast does a great job with live webinars and is one of the top ones available. They have continually improved the product and are coming out with a version two now with a cleaner, easier to use interface with some really cool features. The platform works well and most importantly the live webinars come in clearly and almost never fail. In the past year, things have worked very smoothly which is really a relief. As anyone who does lots of live videos knows, it's crucial to have a smooth, easy-to-use piece of tech that doesn't fail like Crowdcast. Chat comes in a lot better and the features are cooler than Zoom Webinars. Incentivized Nate Alger Owner Read full review
Pros	Hire Space Only pay for the attendees that show up. Moderated and unmoderated video breakouts. Easy to use.

Cons	Hire Space They haven't yet released all their features, like audience polls.

Alternatives Considered	Hire Space No answers on this topic	Crowdcast WebinarJam got really bad the last couple of years we used it (2 years ago). Crowdcast support has been better and doesn't fail like WebinarJam. Facebook had a bunch of issues as well and isn't the ideal solution in my opinion. Zoom Webinars provide a great video feed, but the chat options and overall functionality are limited. Incentivized Nate Alger Owner Read full review
