Airmeet

Vorteile

Die Software reift immer weiter und ist eine Solide Event Lösung. Die Einfache art und Weise des Beitritts ist ausgesprochen angenehm

Nachteile

Das Abziehen der Daten ist Fehlerhaft. Telefonnummern und einzelne Felder der Teilnehmer listen können ab und an nicht abgezogen werden.

Vorteile

Airmeet can create virtual events that are close to real events. It's a real joy to host, speak and attend events created with Airmeet. It feels 100% different than hosting an event on YouTube for example, people really come together in a different way.

Nachteile

No webhooks. You are stuck with integrations offered and can't do anything else.

Vorteile

-Support. They literally reply within seconds on the live chat widget from the website and if you need more advanced help they will invite you for a video call.-Ability for the booth owners to live stream independently.-Discussion tables. There you can share your video and audio with up to 16 people, you can use the tables for support, team building, etc.-Recording. I don't need to worry about anything, once the event starts everything is recorded.-Event records are accessible once the event has finished. Attendees can visit the event again and see the records of the event even is already finished.-They have something called Fluid Space, you better check that in their website, it is amazing.

Nachteile

Really wish the platform could bring most of the features to mobile for easy access if they also want to compete in the webinar world and no only professional events.

Vorteile

This is a great platform to host an online event meeting or conference.

Nachteile

I like the concept of the breakout rooms where products can be featured, or separate discussions can take place; however, not many people tend to participate in the breakout rooms when I have been involved in Airmeet.

Vorteile

Airmeet betrayed early supporters by terminating lifetime deals that funded their growth. Reneging on agreements and forcing higher rates is disgraceful and deceitful. They claim operational costs necessitate this change, but breaking prior agreements suggests financial desperation. Such unethical practices often precede a company's downfall. So, caution to anybody considering this failing platform.

Nachteile

Everything about Airmeet and those who run it is disgraceful. It's disappointing to say the least.

Vorteile

Airmeet is a platform that grows every day, the development team has been concerned with adding new features continuously. the most outstanding characteristics for us are:
- It allows you to customize your event, use your logo and your name
- It has an option for webinar and congresses
- You can manage sponsors and assign their customizable space to each one
- One of the most important features, the socialization tables work perfectly, are configurable and have chat and screen sharing function
- It has an option for quick one-to-one meetings, you can configure them randomly or by the custom fields of the registration form, this is great.
- It has a backstage before starting a conference, where you can agree with your speakers
- All conferences are recorded and you can share them with the attendees
- The session calendar is simple and works perfect
- Events can be accessed from the app
- The support is very good, 24/7 and on the same platform, live

Nachteile

It has few cons, based on our experience:
- The learning curve compared to normal meeting programs is a bit higher
- A good connection is required, for users with poor connections its use is complicated.
- It is not always possible to share system audio, which is important for certain presentations
- I would like to have support in Spanish

Vorteile

It is a fantastic tool, but they broke the deal with lots of customers so stay away from this company

Nachteile

Deal breakers never should be supported. They had LtD offered but after refunding window was closed they decided to close also the LTD accounts

Vorteile

The platform is easy to use and set up. It's been reliable, stable and the video and audio quality are great. Having creation, registration and delivery all on one platform has made life so much easier.

Nachteile

The longest delay in live streaming I've seen in a while (live streaming to YouTube).
Looking booth and sponsor functionality to conference packages which are very expensive.
Limited customisation of the event when in meetup.

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Airmeet

Vorteile

had 1 conference on the software. Some users were able to navigate.

Nachteile

I signed up with an old plan, and now they refuse to allow me to change my email associated with the account. The email is no longer active and the URL no longer available. This is their sneaky way of making past users upgrade to new steeper pricing. Be very careful, they want your money and will not hesitate to make it hard for you to move forward without resetting your account so you have to pay updated pricing.

we also found we had to have a support team to help people navigate the site.

Vorteile

We used Airmeet to host some of our webinars intially and later realised it's ease to use which made us more confident in the product's capabilities.

Nachteile

While this may not be Airmeet's own (controllable) metric, I suppose the streaming quality at times (for some of the event attendees) tends to drop down a few notches midway through the webinars.

Vorteile

I wanted to like Airmeet. However, I can not in any way recommend them as a solution based on the terrible experience I've had with their team and support.

Nachteile

Airmeet's team is the reason I can no recommend their app. Their support is rude, unhelpful, and unreasonable. They refuse to provide any type of decent support even with basic admin tasks such as changing the email address on your account.

Vorteile

1. Helps organize many event types2. Helps increase engagement in online classes3. Works smoothly even with large number of students4. Analytics help to track data easily 5. Team formation is possible

Nachteile

1. It consumes a lot of bandwidth2. You need a system with good specifications to use it as it may get stuck in systems with low specifications.

Vorteile

Airmeet makes it very easy to host a meeting with multiple attendants. Airmeet is a nice platform to conduct live classes, idea sharing sessions. Ease of use and simplicity is the biggest thing I like about this product. Also there are multiple extensions that can be easily configured with the platform.

Nachteile

Mobile app needs to be more improved. There are limited options available.

Vorteile

The platform has that “wow” factor right from the get-go. The beautiful tables in the lounge is one of their main distinctions! Truly this platform was well built!

Nachteile

Honestly, nothing! I continue to be amazed at the speed of development and their amazing team. They listen to feedback and are quick to implement great ideas!

Vorteile

Airmeet is very easy to use. Its availability in several languages facilitates its integration and flexibility. A wide range of functions is available for an excellent rendering.

Nachteile

Airmeet is certainly ranked among the best scheduling and event management platforms. I don't find any drawbacks for the moment.

Vorteile

I love the variety of events that you can organize on this platform (webinars, workshops, conferences), the pricing policy that you only pay for those who attend the event, not for those who register. They regularly organize webinars so you can get the most out of the platform.

Nachteile

I don't dislike anything, that's perfect

Vorteile

The price point, the ease of use, the beauty of the UI.

Nachteile

At first, it was not possible to sell tickets directly on Airmeet. Since then, they added this features along with other things almost every month.

Vorteile

This is the most comprehensive virtual venue I have used since the inception of Covid. They have everything figured out!! The engagement in the social lounge is the best. I love the stage concept. It's the best.

Nachteile

Not having all features accessible via the mobile app

Vorteile

The software is great. Looks great, works as advertised.

Nachteile

A few glitches here and there - most fixed with the reloading of the web page.

Vorteile

I loved the lounge feature where people had the opportunity to site and talk at tables they knew without being disturbed or disturbing others. It allowed us to create a cocktail environment in a virtual setting.

Nachteile

I did not like that the host or speakers could not be heard by everyone in the business level of the package. I think the package where this is available is too expensive for a one-time event and/or smaller organizations without the financial ability to purchase.

Vorteile

Ease of use for attendees, speakers and organisers
Highly interactive platform whilst clear to navigate
Value for money compared to similar high quality options
24/7 live customer support on video & chat

Nachteile

Prices have gone up and packages changed many times
Continually adding new features which can make it hard to keep up

Vorteile

To me, the killer apps are the Social Lounge and the Booths. Zoom has breakout spaces, but the Social Lounge makes it easy for participants to go where they want to (and to leave a conversation to join another if they want to). The Booths provide the onlne equivalent of an exhibit hall. Overall, Airmeet is the closest thing I've found online to the in-person experience at a good conference.

I also like that they are responsive to their customers and add useful new features on a regular basis.

Nachteile

I would like to be able to record a video with closed captions embedded. Also, it's frustrating to some of my clients that you can't fully participate in Airmeet with tablet, mobile phone or Chromebook, the way you can with Zoom.

Vorteile

we liked the backstage area feature and the lobby tables

Nachteile

the lobby tables were really buggy and struggled to host as many as they said it would; screen sharing was difficult at times; several attendees had connection issues, multi hosts didn't work as expected (didn't know there was a max of 10, and you couldn't bring somebody to the stage when hosts were maxed out)

Vorteile

The virtual tables allow attendees to connect with others (not the case on other webinar platforms)
The possibility as a speaker to see the reactions of the audience thanks to the emojis
As a host, the easiness to add a speaker from the attendance during a session
The possibility to have our virtual office and hold meetings or meet other colleagues anytime

Nachteile

The color of the background (very dark, especially for old screens)

Vorteile

That thing that we really liked was that the UI is well designed and that in fact gives the event a more professional look. One of the factors for choosing Airmeet was its UI. Although we were limited to a Laptop browser the customization available to us was quite decent. We could use banners and backgrounds for our sponsor directly and that was quite easy. Also, we could create multiple meet links in advance and all of which had an individual registration capacity and that cost for the same was quite decent.

Nachteile

One of the things that we missed was complete mobile application support. The meets are available on a mobile browser but considering that many people that attended the event did prefer a mobile joining rather than joining from a Laptop, we felt that they should create an app. When joining from a mobile we couldn't switch on mic or camera. Another limitation is that only 10 people can simultaneously join the meet and be on stage(turn the mic and camera on).

Vorteile

Airmeet is by far the most user-friendly system I have used. It was easy to set up, easy to manage, and easy to gage engagement post event.

Nachteile

There were some glitches with a few attendees audio, it was a little slow at times.

Vorteile

Innoverend programma (tafels, fluid network space), netwerkmogelijkheden zijn groot en de overall 'look' van het programma is geweldig

Nachteile

Mis Nederlandse ondersteuning of in ieder geval Nederlandse vertaling van het programma voor gasten. Veel te ingewikkeld om in te loggen, gaat ook meerdere keren fout en gasten moeten 3 keer dezelfde informatie invullen. Via mail, en dan weer op de site en dan weer in de app. Het moet veel simpeler kunnen. Gewoon een link and that's it.

Vorteile

Por su facilidad de uso está ganando terreno en los eventos virtuales, puedes tener la capacidad de no requerir de personal adicional para administrar eventos, con la facilidad de hacer salas y colocar la imagen del evento.

Nachteile

No tiene muchas funciones para móviles, en la descarga de asistentes no lleva muy bien la gestión de entrada y salida por lo que pueden aparecer duplicados algunos.

Vorteile

The best feature was the networking feature. The networking session is divided into tables of 7 participants each. The tables are clearly labelled so attendees know the purpose for each table. This made the networking more intimate and increased the quality of conversations. This made the networking feel more natural as if it was happening in-person.

Nachteile

At times the platform would hang, and the session would drop. Also, it doesn't integrate well with all browsers except Chrome

Vorteile

I had the best webinar experience with Airmeet, it is so good. From registration to the event, everything is amazing. To be specific, the Interface is super smooth & the round table conference setup makes networking fun.

Nachteile

The price somehow feels on the higher end, there should be more tiers & more optional features.

Vorteile

Flexibility. We started to use it as our 'go-to' working online platform. It has enabled our team to grow, to work remotely more effectively and in turn that positively impacts our business.
We have run a few events already and love the networking and social lounge, this has enabled our 'guests' to make connections they may not have made - and that has gained positive feedback
We are now planning some larger scale events with partners and 'sponsors' - which is new to us.

Nachteile

Branding - I would like to have access to templates so that we can get it right the first time.

Vorteile

Airmeet stands out because of the easy of use and the features that make this an interactive virtual events platform. I like the social networking feature that allows attendees (and hosts) to join virtual tables before the session(s), during breaks and after. Very nice, just like in the real world when you attend larger events and want to get to know the other attendees.

Nachteile

I haven't found anything that I didn't like. For the future, I'd like to have extra options to stream my events. I know Airmeet is constantly working on improvements and new features as I noticed they actually listen to customer feedback and do something with it. I find this very important for a software company.

Vorteile

Airmeet offers multiple impactful and extremely useful features, that were missing from the real-world experience, for the organizing teams, such as, differentiating, organizers from attendees, providing a separate backstage feature, for the hosts and speakers to interact with each other. Also, setting up a webinar or multiple webinars is a seamless experience and is really effortless. The social(networking) lounge is one of the best features of Airmeet as it genuinely provides a real-life feel amongst participants of discussing what is being talked about and having small talks and note-sharing, etc. Also, the feature to host a complete event consisting of multiple sessions and multiple speakers is really wholesome and comprehensive. Airmeet also allows for easy streaming features. You can even schedule your streams. They allow you to record your sessions for free. One of the biggest pros of AirMeet is the sheer amount of free features. It really helps small organisations and businesses with limited funds to scale up and grow.

Nachteile

The onboarding journey should be a little more explanatory, especially for the participants/attendees. We have often had our attendees say that it would have been a lot better if they understood the platform completely and how to make the most of each of the features that are present on the platform. Another feature, the chat feels a little out of norms as it does not support some habitual typing such as changing of lines and private messaging amongst attendees and participants. Also, for the organisers and speakers, Airmeet might seem like too much and a little too complex at first sight with too many features and a confused feeling.

Vorteile

Customisable branding and the table-based discussion space is a superb features. It creates an inclusive, dynamic environment for people -mimicking the networking opportunities of in-person events. It's also great that we can stream in to Airmeet, with no issues a at all

Nachteile

One major reason why I use streamyard to stream into Airmeet is the ability to add banners, and images and control the camera view layout for everyone watching. The way that Airmeet squeezes cameras on screen means people's faces are often cut off and there's nothing we can do to resize people in the meeting. The mobile experience is also very poor - should be prioritising an app for mobile users.

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Airmeet

Vorteile

The ease of setting up the platform for an event is great - very intuitive.
Plus, the branding options on the $99 per month version are really good, which is one of the main reasons I chose this, so I could highlight sponsors' involvement (branding available on main page + social lounge tables + presentation backdrops).
The fact that there are separate tabs for 'questions' and 'chat' was really helpful, which meant that speakers could easily answer key questions put to them by attendees without having to sift through the general chat.
The social lounge element is great - a wonderful way of meeting fellow attendees. This was ideal for my charity client, where attendees could video chat with other attendees, speakers and sponsors.

Nachteile

The software didn't seem to work as well on Apple products; some of the speakers using Apple devices had issues when sharing their screens during a presentation. Plus some attendees couldn't hear some of the audio/ couldn't access some sessions after they had started, although when I re-sent the invite link to them, this resolved the issue. I'm sure it is something Airmeet is looking into...

Vorteile

Real engagement and best-in-class interactions

Nachteile

Airmeet team is very passionate towards listening to feedbacks. Most least liking stuff they fix it before next event.

Vorteile

Price and technology, I love that you have people helping 24 hours and also giving us great tutorials on new things added to this wonderful tool.

Nachteile

I think that language could be more flexible, but I understand that you are developing the tool and is a wonderful tool. My students have told me that they would like that the online registration from the phone, could be more user friendly.

Vorteile

The overall experience is next to great. As a participant, it is easy to navigate and quite intuitive. As an event organizer, it has the features and capabilities to substitute in-person events to the closest degree. I like the ability to present parallel presentations (on the paid plans) and the exhibition feature is outstanding.

The social lounge is a great way to encourage participation from attendees when they are not attending any sessions.

Finally, their support (especially the 24/7 lounge) is great and on one occasion, they even set up a meeting with their product manager and team leader to sort out an issue that I had with attendee registration.

Nachteile

I would like the ability to better control or customize the reminders that are being sent to attendees prior to the events. Currently, it is a generic message sent by Airmeet and it would be nice to have some customization.

Also, the part where you add or upload your own list of attendees is a bit cumbersome and confusing and requires you to turn off something in the settings when the lists ie being uploaded and then turn it back on again later.

Vorteile

The ability to set the table size, add custom pictures to the tables, and ease of moving from table to table.

Nachteile

It would have been nice to be able to customize the look of the lounge and not have it be so dark- but for our purposes it was fine. It was also a little frustrating that when you switched tables, your camera and mic were turned off, so you constantly had to click them back on. Finally, I would have liked to be able to name a co-host or 2 that could also pop into a table to help troubleshoot. Although I named co-hosts, it did not apply in the lounge. We needed to keep the table size at 4 for the game, but I as the host had the ability to still join a table to answer questions. Allowing a few others to do that would have made it easier.

Vorteile

When it comes to letting users host online events, Airmeet does several things, and does them very well!

The one thing I like the most about the platform is the user experience it creates for the participants of an online event – both attendees and speakers.

Having organized virtual summits in the past, I know that it can be quite challenging, sometimes, to get closer to recreating an experience that's similar to that of a face-to-face event, but Airmeet excels at it.

I love the fact that attendees can engage with speakers – through features such as live chat, polls, reactions (with emojis), direct messages, as well as directly from the stage!

Plus, there's the Airmeet smartphone app, which means that people can join you even through their mobile device.

And since content is a good part of creating a memorable experience for the attendees of your virtual event, you'll be glad to hear that Airmeet also gives you quite a lot of power when it comes to "controlling the stage": you can hide/unhide participants, enable/disable reactions and polls, change your video & audio setting, add closed captions, and change the resolution of your live streams.

Nachteile

There are some small things I'd change about Airmeet. For example, if you'd like to host an event as yourself, you won't be able to do it unless you add yourself as both the host and a speaker... this sounds a little strange, because it almost seems as if you are two different people.

Sure, this isn't the end of the world but it's one of the couple of things Airmeet has that slightly add friction to the process for creating virtual events.

Vorteile

Airmeet makes the creation and management of breakout rooms easy and a joy a to use. There is tight integration between the main session and the breakout rooms. As facilitator I have been able to check the various groups when doing breakout sessions and it comes close to face-to-face sessions that I previously facilitated. I also like the hand the mic feature which allows for participant engagement that is focused and not disruptive. I also love the ability to create virtual conferences and events with sponsors.

Nachteile

The core design of the landing pages are attractive but I wish there was more customisation in terms of sizing of brand elements e.g. company and sponsor logos. The logos tend to be too small which is not what you want for branding especially for sponsors. Perhaps I may be doing something wrong but several attempts have proven futile.

In Betracht gezogene Alternativen

Vorteile

Though there are several features to talk about in Airmeet, I love the following ones:

- Virtual tables to enable networking (the real essence of a meetup)
- Global automatic mute when the session starts (unlike other platforms where users can unmute themselves)
- Raise hand: This feature allows us to sort the questions from the audience perfectly!

Nachteile

Currently, there is only one con and I'm sure it'll be fixed soon.

- In the current setup, unlike other products, the speaker/guest doesn't get to see anyone on the screen while talking/presenting. This makes them feel like talking to the mirror:/

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Airmeet

Vorteile

The lounge- participants loved the interactivity. Also speed networking. We had a 3 day event and many participants dipped in and out so keep them update on the previous day's activity we used the Arena feature to share the recordings. We liked the magic links and also multiple sessions feature in the conference setup.

Nachteile

The manual log in feels a little clumsy ( not the magic link log in). The Speed Networking feature could be bolder. the 2d reception doesn't feel intuitive - You could use explainer text around what people should do. Help the event organisers navigate their audience - there wasn't room to make bespoke messages.

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Airmeet

Vorteile

It is so easy to use and highly intuitive for those who are always in a video call or attending a virtual event. I love the fact that break out tables are integrated off the bat.

The ability to also schedule your speakers, and that it has a virtual green room is also a super big plus.

Nachteile

Some feedback we got is that the older, more technologically challenged participants had a steeper learning curve. We addressed that by creating a step by step manual, complete with screenshots and what to press, but there are those who are really challenged by technology.

I also wish that there could be consideration for payment integrations for those based in the Philippines like GCASH, PAYMAYA or something similar.

Vorteile

The user interface of airmeet is advanced and looks very elegant. Audience gets the deal when they see it at the first glance. It looks classy and audience automatically bear in mind that the program will also be classy. It help for my reputation growth and I like it.

Nachteile

There is nothing that I would not like accept the pricing. There should be a separate portion of pricing for non profit and student accounts

Vorteile

I appreciate the ability to get everyone in the 'room' and still allow them to move about autonomously. I enjoy the three different chat functions (DM, Table Chat, Everyone in the Room) and reactions feature when someone is onstage. I truly appreciate the 'Backstage' function, which acts as a virtual green room and the countdown to when it goes live. Airmeet also provides wonderful customer support!

Nachteile

Not too often, but occasionally there will be someone on our team or an attendee who cannot gain access to all the features or sit at a table. Sometimes the countdown to when we go live is not accurate and it takes a bit longer. I wish it was possible to change the number of tables in the room after the Airmeet has already been set up.

Vorteile

I loved the flexibility of the software to encourage interaction with people attending the conference. It was fairly easy to have face to face conversations around tables or in lobbies. That is a feature lost in most zoom meetings.

Nachteile

It was a bit challenging to initially learn how to use the features. However, having an experienced person on the team implementing it was key to show how to do the basic stuff and once I learned where to go I found the interface very easy to work with. It was no more complex than any other software and most importantly it was easy to use for attendees, just more complex for the administrator.

The biggest downside was there was a huge delay in getting the meeting recording off of the servers and then I waited too long and have not been able to download 2 of the sessions.

Vorteile

We have been using Airmeet for a bit for the reason it has allow us to create a more organic networking experience for our virtual events.
The tables and speed networking session are amazing to use.

Nachteile

Setting up an even like inviting speaker seem quite hassled and we can't show view of all our participants like zoom.

Vorteile

All of it, it is user friendly , great design, and has all needed features. It is an all in one user friendly software.

For me it is a "coup de coeur". The Airmeet platform have had a huge impact on my business.

Nachteile

The fact that for now it is only fully operational on computer but i am sure that in the near future the airmeet team will make it work on mobiles.
I can not wait for that :)

Vorteile

It's like zooom, but even better in every way! Host webinars with ease, great alternative to zoom! Great!

Nachteile

It's great for me, but I can tell that some people won't feel an urge to switch from the more well known zoom. But when you try this out, you'll be sold!
