Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I've used Arena to hold a small client event. I was looking for an affordable virtual event platform that would allow me to host an interactive discussion and Arena worked perfectly for my needs. One of the main reasons I chose it was that it only charges you for the attendees who actually show up on the day, which means I didn't have to worry about paying for anything I didn't use.

Pros

Only pay for the attendees that show up.
Moderated and unmoderated video breakouts.
Easy to use.

Cons

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

Likelihood to Recommend

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.
