General reviewer comments
“ It would be a very good platform if you earn a lot of revenue from online events , as it is quite pricey , especially the £ 10- £ 20 fee per delegate in addition to the £ 6,500 initial set up fee . If it Is a low-revenue event , then I ’ m not sure the ROI would justify it .”
“ I think one area that will add a lot of value is the delegate experience . The platform aims to make delegates feel like they are as close to a physical event as possible . It brings a sense of freedom back to the delegates and puts them in charge of their own event .”
Snapshot : Reviewers rated their experience , with 1 being low , poor or difficult , and 10 being high , excellent or easy ( average rating ).
