BuzzCast
BuzzCast is great for large, complex online events - especially during the pandemic when it's been hard or impossible to gather folks in person. If you only need a smaller group of 5 or 10 people, BuzzCast is probably overkill. Once you have lots of people / multiple sessions, or want to capture and save presentations for later, you'll want to start looking at BuzzCast.

We are a non profit association with a small staff - Swoogo has been instrumental in enabling us to focus on other tasks while making the registration process easier and more intuitive for our attendees. It's well suited for any organization looking for a functional and very affordable registration solution

Swoogo is intuitive - easy to build registration sites and to make custom reports. It's also easy to send attendees invoices or receipts of their registrations. Swoogo's help feature is also great. They are very responsive and they have been able to solve any problem that has come up for us

Alternatives Considered
BuzzCast
BuzzCast platform has the most amount of features that our events require (public chat/private chat, breakouts, auto-scrolling agenda). The entire platform is built and designed so that it's intuitive for our viewers and they are shown exactly how to operate the platform in under a minute. The quality of the stream is superior. The BuzzCast team is great to work with and are true partners who are all solution-oriented.
