DATE:
AUTHOR: The Hopin Events team

Happy February! We have several new product updates to share with you so let’s jump right in.

Updates for event organizers

Post-Event Replay

Organizers can now extend events by offering on-demand recordings to event registrants for up to a year. This will allow event organizers to maximize content consumption without the need for another hosting platform. Learn more here.

Breakout Rooms

Within the Sessions area, organizers and moderators can randomly split attendees into breakout rooms to drive more participation, engagement, and interactivity. Learn more here.

Hopin App Store

Discover and install applications in our new standalone Hopin App Store. Categorization makes it easy to explore and find partner applications to enhance every aspect of an event. Visit the App Store here.

Integrations page is now the apps page

The Integrations page in the Organizer Dashboard is now the Apps page –– a repository of your installed apps.

Canvas speaker bios

Add speaker bios when building a Canvas webpage so attendees can find out more about a speaker’s background. Learn more here.

Ability to reorder tags and speakers in the Schedule

Easily rearrange tags and speakers in the Schedule page using new drag-and-drop functionality. Once saved, updates will be reflected on the reception and registration schedules. Learn more here.

Airtable application

Export registrations and attendees from Hopin to Airtable in real-time. Learn more here.

3Play Media application

Increase the accessibility and engagement of virtual events by leveraging 3Play's live and on-demand captions, audio description, and translation services. Learn more here.

Replay reporting and tracking

Download reports and tracking for Post-Event Replay to gather insights about on-demand event content. Learn more about the viewers' report here and the recordings report here.

Improvements to recordings

  • Organizers can now trim the start and end of each recording (from both Stage and Sessions) to remove unnecessary bits such as rehearsals or periods of silence. Learn more here.

  • We’ve also simplified the recording library so only Primary recordings are accessible right away. Backup and Rehearsal recordings will still be accessible in a separate area.

Localization

The entire organizer user interface can now be switched to German or Japanese, allowing more organizers to create and manage events in their primary language.

Updates for event attendees

Quick Registration checkout flow

Quick Registration is the new and simpler way to register for Hopin events. Attendees can now register in less than a minute, and organizers are already seeing an influx of registrations and up to a 50% increase in attendance rate. Learn more here.

Closed captions in Expo and Networking areas

Attendees in the Expo and Networking event areas can now turn on automatic live captions. This feature will transcribe each speaker's audio into text that appears on-screen in real-time. Learn more here.
