Love it! Love it, love it, love it! From now on, all of my online events will happen with and on Social Hour!

While planning for a live streaming of a short-film showcase and a Q&A panel with all artists involved, I was looking for a platform that could cater to different creative approaches to design of an online event to match the sort of vibe in which we wanted our audience members to be immersed. Social Hour provided exactly what we needed: the ability to stream -in full screen- all of the content, a platform that was open and friendly to design and branding for artists and creatives, accessibility options that made the event more accessible to the hard of hearing, and unmatched live-help for attendees who were having a difficult time accessing the platform. The Social Hour team was also accessible in problem-solving tech issues before the event, during the event, and debriefed with us after the event. I'm very much looking forward to planning another showcase on this platform!

The only bit about this platform is that it's not currently particularly very mobile friendly. But I know that the team is working hard to make it more accessible for attendees who want to access an event on their mobile devices and could foresee this issue being resolved in the future.

Overall, I thought Social Hour was a great tool! It's much better than Teams and WebEx and is simple and easy to set up.

Social Hour is easy to use and requires no seperate installation since it is browser-based. I find this to make it easier for anyone to join and host an event. The customer service was also amazing! Even on the day of the event, we got fast and detailed replies.

When connected to a company VPN, users are unable to attend and/or experience all the features. Most notably users could not turn on their camera and mic. While some companies may be able to allow Social Hour on their VPN, some may not which may force users to join from their personal computer which may not always be possible if they are on-site and cannot disconnect from the company VPN.

The interaction for the attendees and simplicity of engaging with each other is great!

The chat feature within the platform could use an upgrade.

I've been live producing digital events for a while, and its hard to feel like the platform is truly a part of your team. Here, the staff check in about your goals, and we co-create experiences. It really is a dream in regards of everyone bringing forth their best expertise forward to create the best space and user experience possible.

The accessibility components that the Social Hour Team is dedicated to. How the staff is open minded to your needs, and uses that to incorporate tools for you. Also, the easefulness of creating hybrid, lounges, and stages is great. As a creative, it is exciting to have a sophisticated platform that incorporates customizable design. For my clients and events, I love being able to be innovative in how to blend the tools for different events.

Social Hour is still growing in regards to how users can access it (mobile platform is still not as responsive as needed)-- and individuals with firewalls, etc have more difficulties. However, the team is already in development to grow out of these difficulties, so I am dedicated to the platform.

Top Notch!!

The timely support from the Frameables experts was top notch. These reps supported us through giving us a "tour" of all the features, asking the right questions to find out what we needed, customize a package for us, write the contract, check-ins through the prep stages, and were even there for our event to assure a smooth event and assist in any technical issues along the way. Thank you [SENSITIVE CONTENT] ! You three were instrumental through the process.

It worked perfectly for our event. I don't know anything else that could have been better. There are so many variables with internet and technology for live event. It felt like we had a safe place knowing that experts were there in our event with us to help and assist throughout!

Loved [SENSITIVE CONTENT] support - I felt very prepared for my event!

This felt as similar to a true in-person event as could be expected in a digital space. I hosted a happy hour for leadership and we were able to move between tables, listen to music, laugh, play games and have fun with give-aways. Feedback from the other attendees was very positive! Everyone had a great time! I can now imagine many uses for this product - both in the realm of fun as well as work related (ie brainstorm sessions, meetings requiring breakout rooms, etc.). Two thumbs up from me!

There really wasn't anything I didn't love about it! It was easy!

We really enjoyed the experience of trying something new, and sharing it with our participants - the 'table talk' it allowed was great as well, and the support was great.

The similarity to a 'real life' event for our attendees; the options for personalization; the support we received and utilized

The number of frustrated participants, and some features that didn't work as well as we (organizers and attendees) are used to - ie: chat, recording, screen share, video control etc.
