What do you like best about Brella?

Matchmaking functionality

Easy to schedule meetings

Slick UX Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Brella?

Nothing comes to mind. It would be cool if Brella could automatically pull additional details about attendees from external sources such as Linkedin etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Brella solving and how is that benefiting you?

My primary goal when attending events is to build my network, but this (as most of us know) does not just happen by showing up. Brella is a game-changer. Their powerful matchmaking functionality, smart scheduling feature, and beautifully designed interface make events so much more valuable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's the best event tool so far that I have used. You get so much more from the event if they use this tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Brella solving and how is that benefiting you?

Events are more useful, if they have an app like Brella in use. Some apps like this are just horrible. Brella is very easy and maybe thats why it works so well! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Brella?

The networking tools were great and the whole experience with all the live and most importantly on demand options for the video broadcast was great. Did not have a single problem and was all very professional and engaging. Chat tools also a bonus Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Brella?

Would have liked some live demo options from the brand's so you could login and chat as they demo as if you were really f2f Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Brella?

The ability to connect with other attendees at events makes it a lot easier to find those with shared interests; the filtering feature is great for this.

Brella is certainly the best event networking app I've used. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Brella?

I've experienced a couple of app crashes during events - it seemed to it got fixed quickly, though.

I have been most successful in connecting with relevant people going through attendees manually - the "recommended" list could use some improvement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Brella solving and how is that benefiting you?

Going to events not knowing who to look for. Brella makes it possible to establish meaningful connections.

Finding investors can be difficult, so a tool like Brella is a big help at events to make the search posible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Brella?

I like how the video and chat is integrated directly into the Brella platform. Without Brella, I have to schedule a meeting with a separate Zoom or Google Meet link. Therefore, I like how Brella has all of it on one platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Brella?

People are used to using other platforms, so there is a learning curve when switching to Brella. Perhaps some of the functions could be more intuitive, since people I were calling were struggling to figure out how to screen share. Additionally, I wasn't sure if the video was incorporated into the platform, so maybe make that more clear.

Another new feature could be having meetings with multiple users at once. It would be cool if that were possible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Brella solving and how is that benefiting you?

I work for a VC firm and wanted to network with startups. I like how each person has short bio including their position, company, industry, etc. so you know what they do and what they are looking for. This helped me identify good matches to chat with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Brella?

It allows networking during conferences, along with the speaking schedule. It automatically assigns a table to meet at and has ok calendar integration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Brella?

Very hard to navigate as a conference user. I find it really hard to see if there is a speaker I want to hear when someone requests to meet with me. The whole site is buggy. I set up networking 3 times before it actually worked, and the first two times it wasn't clear it didn't work, so it took me a few days to get networking working. It really needs to be an app - people will be on their phones while at the event. Right now it is a website, and the URL isn't the greatest, so it is hard to find. It is so difficult to use, that I'm even messing up meeting times and my schedule - something it is supposed to help me with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Brella solving and how is that benefiting you?

Allows you to schedule speaking events you want to see and network with other conference-goers. Solves the problem of where to meet and to network at a conference but doesn't do it super well. I would not recommend any conference to use them, there must be better solutions out there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Brella?

I like the CMS admin platform, easy to use upload and interface system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Brella?

The steams feature was a little difficult to figure out - what works best for live streaming versus pre-records. We used an outsourced company to help with the video and hybrid live versus pre-record event. It would have been easier to use one over the over. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Brella solving and how is that benefiting you?

Solving problems of people networking who usually would not network together. That is a huge benefit when trying to get diverse topics and research to teh forefront Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It would be nice if the functionality existed beyond the event and you could continue to connect afterwards. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Having a networking lounge or designated networking zone made it even easier and more efficient to participate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
