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.

It's a great platform for bigger multi-day or multi-track events where broadcast-quality video matters.
Also great when you know you have multiple events throughout the year. The bigger and more complicated the event, the more BuzzCast really shines. Less appropriate for smaller meetings or events where zoom-level video quality will suffice.

BuzzCast pivoted quickly to understand the needs of Just For Laughs—Montréal, an internationally renowned comedy festival, and industry event. They were adept at finding new ways to deliver and maximize their platform for our unique needs. I am confident they would be able to do this for any company needing to host an online event, conference, etc.

As someone who has never run a digital festival before, their team was not only highly skilled to program and design the online platform based on our specific needs, but they were also engaged and responsive with my team. They were genuinely interested in making the festival a success and working collaboratively to do so. If you're looking to host a comprehensive online event or festival that is easy to use but is able to host a lot of shows and panels, these are the people to make it happen.

BuzzCast is very well suited to deliver high-quality virtual events and conferences for clients that desire broadcast quality and robust audience engagement. It is less suited for very low budget streaming-only events that do not take advantage of its range of features.

BuzzCast and BuzzLab are a great partner for a high-end event that requires extra personalization and/or added support from a team of amazing professionals. It was extremely helpful to feel like our team had extra brains and hands and that we were all working toward the same goal.
