Planned vs. streamGo

Planned is well suited when you are stuck for ideas and require creative collaboration from a network of unique vendors.

It is one of the best platforms for attending webinars related to the distribution of knowledge related to different technologies and software and live events related to software releases and other product-related releases. The video streaming and software quality of the platform itself can be massively improved, in my opinion.

Incentivized

• The platform can use some tweaking (i.e.: when reserving hotels, adding guest rooms, including meeting rooms - instead of just spaces, which can be confusing when searching).

• The webinars could be shorter and to the point.
• The platform has some bugs and streaming issues.
• The video quality sometimes drops in between the webinar.

Mostly because of the cost-cutting and being able to access a decent feature set in the cost provided. There are other products in the line that are better performing and have better feature sets, but the price that stream charges and the feature set and usability it provides are decent and worth the price.

I have not really contacted the support but have had friends who have and this is one of the other reasons why I switched to streamGo. Initially, I was skeptical regarding the support, but when a few of my ex-colleagues and friends told me that it is awesome, I took the decision to switch to streamGo.

Planned is the only event planning software company we have worked with, and plan to work with. The team behind the platform is constantly innovating to enhance features and the overall experience for both vendors and users.

The reason for switching was major because of the cost-cutting. If I were to compare them to the products mentioned above, I'd say all three of them have their own pros and cons but are mostly superior and better than a stream. If it hadn't been for the cost-cutting I wouldn't have jumped to stream.

Incentivized

• We were able to get repeat business from a new client brought to us by Planned
• We were able to learn more about what types of virtual event services we'd like to grow as a business, as a result of working with Planned
• We have not seen a financial ROI for our business yet because we have only worked with one client on the platform and it has been costly for us to accommodate this client

Incentivized

• I've been an end user who has used this to attain knowledge of no return/investment on business.
• The platform is buggy and can be improved.
• Random quality drops in the middle of the video.
