If you do large online events, this is the MUST have tool!

I just love it, the platform is simple and intuitive to use, the support team is always helpful. On top of that there's a fairly active community to get help and ideas.

PROS

This is a simple, yet powerful and elegant solution to manage any large event, from one central place you control the whole process, and if you use any of the platforms that are integrated with Heysummit the process is transparent. If, not, you can always use the API to connect to the platform of your choice. I've tried other platforms to manage events, and this is by far the one I like the most.

CONS

Is not flexible enough to personalize yet. (more personalize options are being added)

Perfect Tool

We needed something that integrated well with Remo for a conference we were planning. Even though we hired an event planner that recommended using it, none of us had any prior conference experience. Being so easy to build took a lot off of our plate.

PROS

An easy-to-build website for your event that is much more sophisticated than Eventbrite. It allowed us to showcase speakers, schedule, sell tickets, and more.

CONS

Wish there was a bit more customization available, but overall it is what it is and gets the job done.

Reason for choosing HeySummit

Seemed a lot more sophisticated and was its own landing page.

HeySummit is getting better with new features

It was an excellent replacement for in-person events during COVID and we are still finding it valuable with hybrid events and even just in-person events to use for registration.

PROS

We can clone events without having to go back and change all the default adjustments again. For a LONG time we were unable to manage attendees very well, with their latest updates we can at least help attendees with login issues and view their receipts.

CONS

The UI navigation has been changed several times and it is still not very user friendly.

Reason for choosing HeySummit

The amount of time we had to get an event deployed was minimal, we did not have an investment of time to deploy our own custom-built solution.

A solid platforms for hosting different types of virtual events

PROS

As someone who has organized virtual summits in the past, before tools like HeySummit were available, I want to highlight two features that not only are my favorite ones, but that also address two key aspects of hosting an online event. The first one is talk management. Since content is at the core of a digital event, it's important to try to provide value and create a great user experience. With HeySummit, you can manage different kinds of talks (including live or pre-recorded), and even connect to popular video platforms such as Vimeo, Wistia, YouTube, Vidyard and Dubb, just to mention a few. Then, there's the speaker dashboard. What I like about it is the fact that it's an excellent way to manage speakers while also giving them the opportunity to promote themselves by having a professional-looking dashboard and page with all the key information – including their affiliate link.

CONS

While HeySummit does come with a landing page feature, I have to say that it gives you limited customization power – that's why, a few events I've seen organized through HeySummit have ended up having pretty much the same kind of layout and concept (talking about being unique...).

Best in class of one!

Most importantly, we can have all best practice processes for event production while having complete control over attendee ownership.

PROS

I initially joined the training on HeySummit just prior to the global pandemic situation and took part in a training that connected me to several virtual event experts. There is a lot of experience and thought that went into the conceptualizing of this product and customer service is fast, proactive and solves issues at light speed. We have several use cases for HeySummit - from virtual live events, to evergreen summits and video content deposits for our communities. For each of these use cases, HeySummit serves us well with bringing event user interfaces to market fast. The solution focuses on helping event producers to adhere to best practices while integrating with other relevant platforms for video streaming or webinar hosting. So we can have the best of all worlds. We have not found a comparable solution.

CONS

We'd enjoy for more customization options on the event front page. While the software does a great job in English for some languages, the translation automations don't work perfectly. However, both of these topics are addressed. Instead of directing us to a roadmap, we can get involved in helping translate the back- and front-end. There is not a week without a new feature helping virtual event producers.

Thrilled in running my first virtual conference

As shared I only learned of HeySummit six weeks or so before I created my event. While I've used various platforms before it was either as a ticketing site or a website in terms of anything comparable. I was able to in this timeframe with the tools they offered, the support from their team and the Facebook group offer a seamless and great experience for my attendees.

PROS

To begin I launched my first virtual summit in six weeks and achieved this using Hey Summit's platform. Some of the features I liked most: speaker submissions via a direct link on the page, the auto population of the schedule and bios of speakers and their talks, the number of plug and play aspects eg. affiliate program, general analytics on referrals of attendees - and definitely the Hey Summit support team. The latter made all the difference.

CONS

There were a few features that were not immediately intuitive such as setting the date for your summit is tied to adding your first talk, the speaker login process or navigating where to change certain settings.

Reason for choosing HeySummit

Through a simple google search a video popped up by someone providing a review of the HeySummit product. I liked the features and decided to continue working with the platform. I'm already planning two more, with HeySummit!

Vendor Response

Hello Bridget - thank you for your awesome review! We are so thrilled that you had a great experience with HeySummit running your first virtual summit. Our product and support team will definitely appreciate the praise! Your user experience feedback is also greatly appreciated and acknowledged. It will get forwarded along to the product team to be considered as we plan new improvements and features.

Heysummit works great for virtual events with 25+ speakers.

PROS

It's simple to use and my events always run smoothly

CONS

Issue with attendees Logging in; they find it difficult since they keep going in a loop of confirming their login through their email, multiple times in a row. I feel this is unnecessary. Once they login, it should recognize them at least for a minimum of 48-72 hours. This would avoid repeating the login between each session.

Reason for choosing HeySummit

It was easier to use and maintain.

Amazing!

After trying multiple other platforms, and even custom coding our own in 2022, HeySummit did it all with excellence.

PROS

Done for you. It's intuitive, complete and reasonably priced. Our summit with 70 speakers went off without a hitch. HeySummit gets an A+ from us!

CONS

Honestly, if I had a concern, I'd reach out to support and they'd fix it -- fast. I cannot say enough good things about this software and team. Bravo!

Reasons for switching to HeySummit

I needed a system that would help me manage 70+ speakers and their content with ease, while giving attendees a super-easy-way to navigate the summit. HeySummit rocked it! It worked like a charm.
