Lauren N
Events Coordinator
4.0

Lauren N.: My name is Lauren. I'm an events marketing manager. I would rate ON24 as a four, and for more reviews, click below. Previously, we had used GoTo Webinar in Zoom, and they just did not have enough features for us to really get the full customization out of our webinars and get our full stretch of engagement. We chose ON24 because of how much you could customize the platform, customize the emails that go out to our registrants and attendees, and really give a full scope of the action items that they can do while they're in the webinar, how much they can talk with our speakers, and how much that we feel like we can really share with our customer base. I will say getting started was slightly tricky learning everything on the platform, because it was not as user-friendly as it is now. The actual presenter side of the platform has changed a huge amount just in the last couple years with the release of their new elite studio. But once now you get going with all of that, it is all pretty straightforward and they have a great support chat system and support email system as well. I recommend, and I think they'll actually probably make you do this, set up with ON24 representative to walk you through the platform, give you a full demo, full scope, let them ask you what your initiatives are and what you're looking for in this platform so that way they can make sure they can fulfill that for you. But with all their new features and technology coming out, I have a feeling that it could work for nearly everybody, and then just make sure that it looks and feels how you want it to. But otherwise, I think that it's a good move.

Rick N
Exec. Dir. Marketing and Technology
5.0

Rick: My name is Rick. I'm the executive director of Marketing and Technology for Chapel Hill Academy. I give Microsoft Teams a rating of 5 out of 5. Before Microsoft Teams, we didn't really have any sort of management software. We would just do things manually over email using on-device storage and using the phone to call people. We didn't really have an instant chat way to communicate with people instantly, or unified file storage or project management option. We chose Microsoft Teams because of its compatibility with the whole Microsoft ecosystem. We had been using Microsoft tools and apps previously, the Office Suite, OneDrive, or SkyDrive even before that, Outlook, et cetera. So it just seemed nice to have a unified experience and not have too many different systems that ended up being siloed, but something that's a unifying platform. Overall, it was a good experience getting started with Microsoft Teams. I will say as we continue to onboard new staff from time to time, it is a little bit of a learning curve, but Microsoft does provide some phenomenal resources to help get people started through their Microsoft Learn program and also through online videos that guide people to getting familiar with how to use Microsoft Teams. I would recommend for anyone considering Microsoft Teams, first of all, it's great. Definitely do it. But I think the key is just when you get started and onboarding, is to make sure you equip yourself with the proper training and understanding and organization of the platform, and then also carry that on to your team or staff so that everyone has a pleasant experience as they continue to grow and learn how to leverage and maximize teams to be more efficient.
