RingCentral Events (formerly Hopin) is an online events platform that provides tools for virtual events, or hybrid events, like ticketing and registration, limitless event rooms, an expo hall, chat, and networking, as well as event branding and attendee engagement tools. Integrations with online registration tools - such as Cvent, Marketo, Pardot, Eloqua, and Eventbrite.
The needs of the clients are of utmost importance to us, so we take their "must-haves" and "nice to haves" and most times they align with Hopins features.
GoTo Meeting has its own merits but does lack on the functionality side of things as it can host a basic meeting and allow video/ screen sharing. Whereas on Hopin we can host multiple sessions at once in various 'rooms', allowing for networking, exhibition, and all …
less reliable and professional-looking, but getting its features better really fast and for smaller events, I would prefer them to Hopin in the case of Meetyoo it has to do with its 3d capabilities that impress a lot compared with the boring although efficient Hopin look
Hopin allows the creation of much more detailed and professional events vs zoom or Google Meet. It really allows you to build out each event fully with custom landing pages, info about guests, and more.
I actually have a bone to pick about this. I want Hopin to incorporate or copy Bevy's community feature. Bevy's conference feature SUCKS. And Bevy is really expensive for the value. BUT...I love the analytics, the built-in email service provider, and a few other things in Bevy's…
I checked into GoToWebinar, Webex, Webinar Jam, and others. I have used two of those in the past, with varying degrees of success. With my current products, I needed to upgrade into a more full-fledged conferencing platform, one where I wasn't on the tech support line every …
We did use events like Expo-IP and MEETYOO and some other not-listed options. We opted for Hopin because of its customer support and scalability, as well as its ease of use.
Hopin has always topped our evaluations as the best platform providing the most complete range of desired features for the price they offer. For us, they lead the way in events platforms, and unless the group of people is small, we will use them as our first option for events …
Airmeet was the most comparable to Hopin. It had a very similar interface. The networking feature was a little better in my opinion because it offered "round tables" where you could see the table and see how many were already seated at the table and join the table if you wish. A…
Airmeet has many worthwhile features, but ultimately I go with Hopin because of its rapid expansion. As for all the webinar platforms I've used, like EverWebinar, they're not in the same league. Not even close to the quality and functionality.
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 …
Hopin's feature list and integrations were far superior to Bizzibo. Hopin's support team also blew Bizzibo out of the water - and not just during the contracting and onboarding process but also a year later, we are still seeing the same levels of excellent customer service.
Hopin has the easiest user interface for both customers and internally, replicates the in-person environment for engagement as close as possible, and sets up very easily. It doesn't take a huge team or months to implement. You can get up and running quickly, and the platform …
Definitely better suited than the others for conference-type events. We prefer to use zoom for others because of the breakout feature. And AnyMeeting works well for us for webinars.
It has a very responsive customer service unlike many other famous and popular platforms so it is a great sigh of relief because as a user I am confident that whenever I come across any hurdles and discrepancies in the software the team will be there to sort it out. Moreover, …
We selected Hopin after shopping around for similar tools (it seemed like a fairly short list at the time). Hopin seemed to have the best reviews from people who had used the platform.
Hopin is an all in one platform, that requires little integration. They are building and updating the product more and more each day so that it's the platform has all the features that you need. From registration to hosting the event, to post-event reporting, Hopin has it all. …
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
