What makes Hopin different

Hopin aimed to recreate the full conference experience online: stages, sessions, networking, and expo booths. It scaled rapidly during the pandemic. RingCentral acquired Hopin's events business in 2023 and now sells it as RingCentral Events, alongside RingCentral Meetings and Rooms; hopin.com now points buyers to RingCentral Events.
