"Excellent venue to discuss technical and/or general topics"
5/5
What do you like best about Braindate?

The best advantages of braindate is you can host technical and/or general sessions where you can present ideas that are up to “constructive” discussions with the rest of participants.

During these discussions among participants (total of 6 participants including host), everybody seems supportive and creative ideas re-surface due to the small number of participants which makes the set topic appear very interesting and conducive to open interpretations.

What do you dislike about Braindate?

The braindate sessions I participated as a host and as a participant is actually a good idea !!!

I would suggest adding two (2) more participants to total eight (8) participants. The concentration to the proposed topic per session will reach more individual if possible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Braindate is a huge value-add to our conference experience"
5/5
What do you like best about Braindate?

Braindate is a great way for our attendees to network and meet like-minded people without the pressure and awkward small talk of traditional networking activities. It takes the pressure off, especially for the introverts, to meet new people and expand their networks while jumping more quickly and easily into meaningful conversations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Braindate?

The only downside we have experienced is that in our second year engaging Braindate, our sponsors have figured out how valuable it is and there was much more sponsor/attendee engagement than attendee/attendee engagement than we had in year one. We will work with the Braindate team to implement their suggestions to tackle this next year! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A participant favorite and a pleasure to partner with"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Braindate?

Braindate connects people around topics of interest which makes networking more meaningful. It is a great relationship/community builder at events. It is very easy to use both on the backend and the client facing side. We were well supported with the set-up and have enhanced and improved YOY since we began using the tool. We just wrapped our 3rd year using it! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Braindate?

I wish it could integrate fully with our conference mobile app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"An outstanding partner for meaningful attendee engagement"
5/5
What do you like best about Braindate?

Braindate offers a truly unique and valuable way for our attendees to connect around shared interests. The platform’s topic-based meeting model encourages intentional, high-quality conversations that enhance the overall event experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Braindate?

The only real challenge we encountered was accommodating the physical onsite requirements, which required a bit of extra planning on our part. That said, their team worked closely with us to find solutions and ensure everything went off without a hitch. Their flexibility and support helped make it all manageable.

"Very effective networking & knowledge sharing for our event!"
5/5
What do you like best about Braindate?

Ability to have a very structured program around networking and sharing of knowledge. The sync with my calendar allowed an easy way to spend time with over 20 clients in 2 days at our recent event with no hassles. The support from the Braindate onsite team was extremely helpful, and made my Braindates run even more smoothly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Braindate?

It would be nice if the notifications were integrated more seamlessly with our event app through cVent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Awesome for open discussions with like-minded people"
5/5
What do you like best about Braindate?

I can suggest a topic that matters to me and meet people who have similar interests and experiences. It helps to get un-polished real-life insights you can never get with a big audience involved. These conversations are always very open and practical, bringing enormous value to business and personal growth.

It's also very easy to use from both sides: searching for interesting braindates and scheduling your own. Great job, Braindate team! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Braindate?

I had an issue hosting my first braindate. It had been fully booked, but half of the people didn't show up. Next time, the Braindate team fixed that - when braindate was full in advance, they added a couple of extra spaces. Thank you so much for that! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I appreciate the intention way that Braindate offers opportunities for connections among conference attendees. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Braindate?

One challenge with Braindate is finding a way for attendees to see the value of the platform and the opportunities they have before they get on site so they can plan for time to spend on one or more Braindates.. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
