What do you dislike about Braindate?

Show More Response from Marie-Gil Vachon of Braindate [Editedit](https://www.g2.com/survey_responses/braindate-review-8200318/official_response/edit) Dear Judy, thank you for sharing your Braindate experience at SaaStr Europa! It was great to have you engage in so many group braindates. Indeed, moderation was a new feature add-on turned on by the event organizer. This year, SaaStr had a code of conduct to nurture learning at the core of the networking experience. They were strict in not accepting commercial or salesy topics to ensure that conversations were collaborative and not a one way pitch. Like everything new, I believe, we need to find the right balance. The intention is for the greater good but we can improve on the moderation and review process so that it doesn't feel limitative - especially after 3x. I feel you! We're on it as we grow our culture of knowledge sharing at SaaStr's events. Can't wait to greet you again next year for more insightful conversations and long lasting relationships. Thanks again for your generous participation!
