Meetn Reviews

Very happy with the decision to buy tier 3. It's still a bit rough around the edges, and I'm definitely keeping Meetn. Lots of promise, and I'm always looking for a feasible alternative to Zoom for both security/privacy reasons as well as cost savings.

Pros:
Very easy to use. Zoom went down for a few hours earlier this week, and I was able to pivot to using Meetn for several meetings during that time without any advance notice, without having used it before, and without having looked through any of the help/support materials.

I run a membership program with multiple facilitators for live sessions. Meetn will be much easier to use than Zoom in this scenario, as I can give each facilitator their own "host" link to the same Meetn room.

I love the ability to upload slides directly. Much nicer than screen sharing.

The custom CTA button and redirect upon exit are helpful features that I didn't expect to enjoy so much.

Support is fast & friendly.

Live captioning is accurate and easy to turn on.

Cons
As others have mentioned, the branding is... odd and outdated. There's a green glow around the active speaker window that gives a 1990's alien movie vibe.

There is no way to customize the confirmation and reminder emails that people get when registering for a session. I hear that customization is coming soon, but for now, there's no way to add a link to slides, specific instructions for the session, etc.

There isn't the option to register for recurring meetings via Meetn. I offer a weekly co-working session, and while I can use the same link for each session, I'd need to create my own calendar invite/reminders via a calendar app or something similar.

The chat is not saved when recording a live session. You can manually save it before leaving the session, but if you forget to do that, it won't be visible along with the recording.

Overall, I'm feeling hopeful about this purchase and look forward to watching the product evolve.

I love it! If we can add interactive polls and quizzes like Streamalive , this will stand out even more.

I'll be upfront, I've only played with the software for a day while following the tutorial (which I suggest watching even if you haven't purchased yet, it will give you a very clear picture of what you are getting). I'll provide more points below but in short: so far I love almost everything (minor stuff is not deal-breaking) apart from overly in-your-face Meetn branding and outdated UI (it looks like from 90s).

Some features that I found amazing:
- Recordings can be interactive, meaning all your CTAs, popups can still be actionable even in the replay. I have yet to test it but it sounds super-cool and very useful.
- Tons of clever tiny settings for all sorts of situations (for instance, if your attendance is low, you can hide attendees and their numbers to prevent the embarrassment, haha)
- Widgets. Blows my mind how much an innovative mind can use these for in different scenarios. I'm not a programmer but even I know I'll be using these a lot in the future. It's just a great way to go about displaying CTAs and interactive information on your screen. Truth be told, one of the things I didn't know I needed until I saw it in action (tutorial), haha. And, my gut feeling tells me they will come up with even more use cases. Just the feature to interactively display any web page and allowing to interact with it (Sessions comes to mind) alone creates million use cases since even a non-coder like me can whip up a nice looking page in a page-builder.

Some things I didn't like so much.
1. AM/PM thing... it would be great to allow an option for 24 hours.
2. Time zone settings are a bit limited with a list of countries. I think using traditional GMT+/- would be more convenient for most users. But I heard it's already WIP.
3. I'm on a 27 inch Ultrawide screen and all interface elements seem to be a bit too big.I have to open it in a half-screen so it looks decent. In general UI looks like from 90s but I heard the team is already working on it. I'm sure a decent designer will find ways to make it look good on all sorts of resolutions and aspect rations. It's not a deal-breaker but yeah, I do love clean modern interfaces (ideally with an option for a Dark mode) so it's kind of close to my heart.
4. "Hide all widgets from Guests" seem missing from my interface. I suppose there's a reason for it but just thought to mention it, as it is covered in the tutorial but I couldn't find it.

Now I just need to figure out how to plug it in GHL so that I can sync the data for registrants, no-shows etc.

Used it and it works simple.. so 5 tacos

This is a great virtual meeting/webinar alternative to Zoom. I have been on the hunt for something like this for a while, and Meetn does not disappoint. I have tried multiple tools like this one that have shown up here on AppSumo, and Meetn is definitely the best. I was surprised by how much I liked the simple interface and admin settings; the lack of clutter is refreshing. The video and audio quality are great as well. There are minor things here and there that could be improved, but it seems like this tool is ready to go out of the box. I would snag this deal before it's gone!
