Re: Zoom Breakouts with "the law of two feet"


 

I used Brella at SaaStr in 2019 and liked it but when I asked them a quote a year ago it was several thousand dollars for one event.

It would be great if their pricing had changed and they had integrated with Zoom and other online meeting tools but looking at their website they still seem focused on facilitating f2f events. I got an email from them on March 12 (see below) that looked like they had pivoted to facilitating online discussions and I asked for pricing again but they never responded.? I would appreciate any insights form folks who have spoken with recently or who have more current experience.

Brella for virtual events

Hi?there,

I know I'm not the first to talk about COVID-19 and its effect on events. It's a trying time for the entire industry. This?one of the biggest wake-up calls for the industry and the beginning of a new way to look at events.

While we believe 100% in the power of face-to-face connections and the superior environment for those connections that your events provide, no meeting should come at the risk of security and safety.

Yet, instead of postponing or canceling your event, it's possible to host your event online with no hiccups. To ensure you can deliver on the promises made to your attendees, sponsors, stakeholders and more, we are making some timely updates to Brella ?

  • Livestream support for your attendees to easily access your livestreams & content directly within Brella?
  • Virtual meeting support so your attendees can connect & meet online from the comfort of their own home?
  • Time zone standardization so your attendees stay on track and on time

No matter the size of your event, these changes are simple and easy to make. You'll also have the full support of an experienced team of consultants and experts to ensure your switch to online is painless and stress-free.

  • Our AI-matchmaking and networking platform helped Infroma make their annual TMRE Connect a huge networking success.

It looks like Remo.co provides up to 4 people at a table, with the ability to move around. But it does not provide the dance card. IE, the serial set of 1:1 meetings. Brella does in a way, you would just have to force fit rooms into Brella.?

I wonder if Brella is too heavy weight for the task....?

The hard part about "breakout rooms in advance" is that it is moderator driven. This might work well for some situations, but it fails terribly in a context like an "unconference" or the "dance card" scenario that Sean mentioned.?

Hello Christina

1. Can you do all these things (mentioned in your email below) with a basic license or do you need a higher upgrade for this? Where could I find the settings if this is all possible with a basic license?

2. I can only create Breakout Room 1, Breakout Room 2 etc. and cannot rename them. Same question here, would I need a higher upgrade?

I do not remember ?sinceI have a licence... best investment ever ...strongly suggest you go for it!


3. What if I only create rooms in advance and then want to automatically assign people, does that work??

From my experience , you cannot create the room in advance.
I would love to know how!

4. Can I also assign just 1 person to a breakout room and automatically assign the other participants? (would that have to be a co-host?)?

Go the other way : random assign and then tell ?that ONE participant *using the private chat) NOT to accept the breakout room invitation


5. Does anyone work with (it's a more playful tool, I am wondering if anybody used it in their sessions)

No but I will look into it.
