Scoot Reviews & Product Details

Scoot is an experiential meeting and webinar platform that provides new ways for people to interact in a virtual setting. Patented Social Presence® technology promotes connections because meeting attendees can move and mingle, just like they do in real life. Scoot is ideal for meetings and webinars that have more than 25 attendees. When attendees want to engage with each other, company representatives, and subject matter experts, an interactive experience on Scoot provides more value than a broadcast-style meeting or webinar. There are two experience modes in Scoot. Mingle mode enables attendees to move within a customized, branded virtual space. Presentation mode provides presenters to share content and videos. Screen sharing is enabled at three levels: group discussion, entire room, and entire Scootaverse. Smart Badges are populated with attendee data and are searchable. Attendees can enter their Smart Badge data during registration or upon entry. Data can also be loaded in advance or imported from external systems. Smart Badge data can be configured as conditionally viewable. Scoot supports all major browsers and mobile devices. Our client list includes multiple Fortune 500 brands as well as many small and medium-sized organizations.

"New Level of Video Chats"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Scoot?

It's a very cool idea to be able to move around in the "room" and talk with other people and groups. I definitely get the feel of being at a large mixer or event where there are going to be pockets of people that I can speak to. Also, the volume changing dynamic is very useful when you want to have a side conversation with someone in a bigger group. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Scoot?

No mobile ability is the biggest shortfall for me. I know the product is sort in a beta stage but eventually if I can use Preciate from my mobile device (with ease), that would certainly allow me to utilize it more with my work and social groups. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Organic Virtual Connection"

5/5

What do you like best about Scoot?

The casual environment to float around and join multiple conversations hearing only your own and the music in the background reduces the stress of feeling the need to always talk or fill the void of quiet Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Scoot?

The video screens of the people you are chatting with could flex to be more prominent when you want to focus on a conversation vs. see the whole room. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Great way to connect with friends and colleagues outside of the apps we associate with work in a more casual and organic way. Zoom or Microsoft Teams have a work/meeting room feel with the stress and pressures that come with it, and this is a great option to get out of that element when it's more social. You don't often have a team happy hour, lunch, or get-together in a meeting room, do you? Why should your virtual life be different? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Competent business tool"

5/5

What do you like best about Scoot?

This is a product that picks up where Teams and Zoom leave the scene- literally! It makes it easy to organize and manage meetings by making the process visual. I am an intensive user of both great products but often they can be cumbersome when managing multiple teams. I found Preciate easy to use, intuitive, great UI with a good range of meeting tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Scoot?

I had two issues: 1. When sharing a screen in presenter mode, could not see other participants 2. When logging in the audio, video defaults have to be set manually each time before you can join the meeting. In Teams and Zoom also but their implementation is better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Four problems solved for my team by Preciate include: 1. Splitting up groups much easier 2. Tracking who is in teams much easier 3. Selecting/identifying/joining a team to join much easier 4. Ease with which can have multiple presenters. Together, these make virtual meetings easy to manage and fun! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great for Co-working and Group Virtual Meetings"

5/5

What do you like best about Scoot?

Participants can move around inside a large virtual "room", which means if two people want to have a side conversation, they can move away from the larger group easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Scoot?

Isn't available yet for ipads - that will make it easier to conduct meetings with my field staff. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Scoot:

If you regularly have meetings with more than three people, Preciate is spectacular. It's so much easier to use than zoom, and because you can move around within the room, it's easy to avoid one person dominating the conversation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

My staff is all over the metro area, and Preciate lets us have meetings, work together, and problem solve client issues quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Fun Way to Connect"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Scoot?

Preciate is a fun way to connect with coworkers because it's a space outside of our normal video chat that allows some festive options and creativity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Scoot?

When in a room, it's just not always easy to navigate around spatially. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Scoot:

Could be helpful to have a more clear tutorial on how to navigate within a room. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I'm not sure if it solves problems necessarily, but I think it benefits employees by giving them a creative and fun way to communicate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The bubble feature where you can form into different groups and not hear those around you is great! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Only downside is a few technical issues we have had when reassigning someone else as the presenter but I am sure they are working on fixing this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This solves our problem of a widely spread company across different countries. It creates a different conversation as opposed to Zoom & Teams. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Proximity Chat is a game changer!"

3.5/5

What do you like best about Scoot?

- Love the ability to interact with individuals in the same way we would in-person. This app allows social events to be more effective than a traditional Teams meeting we would otherwise use! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Scoot?

- Feeling like an intermediary for a bigger sales deal.

- No self-service functionality for 'higher level' features (have to submit images to have uploaded for background, etc). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hi there! Glad to hear you're enjoying socializing on a virtual platform that feels more like real life than other platforms out there. It's always awesome to hear about other teams who find Preciate increases employee engagement as much as we do. We are definitely on board with including more self-service functionality for things like uploading custom backgrounds, and we have some exciting stuff coming up in this department that we think you'll love. Thanks for taking the time to leave us your feedback! We greatly appreciate it.
