Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Arena.im's is fantastic to use, primarily due to its easy and simple user interface. Under this "simplicity" are a vast amount of customization options to tailor your website feeds in every detail you require. And if you need a little extra help, support is literally a live chat box away.
  • Easy implemented with one line code, improved client satisfaction, real time interaction and my team became more productive.
  • Comprehensive set of features and analytics, seems to be the easiest way to add viewer relations management to a website.
  • Good interface, multiple user accounts allowed. Excellent internal interface. Loads reliably and no seeming downtime.
  • It was very easy to use the chat function. Everything looked sleek for the participants. Loved it that it has polling and Q&A function too. Being able to use GIFs is such a plus to make engagement more hyped up.

Cons

  • Their entry-level package has a limit of 1000 impressions, which run out quite quickly. Smaller websites could be deterred from signing up to a paid package due to the starting price for a paid subscription.
  • No significant cons at the moment, but the design could improve in one detail or another. And with even better prices, I could implement it in other businesses as well. But I don't give up the tool, which has been essential for my business.
  • Even though Arena itself is free for personal websites and low traffic blogs, WordPress requires you to upgrade to the "business plan" ($300 annually) in order to use Arena plugin, required to embed functions like chat in your blog.
  • None that I can think of, we are very happy with Arena as a platform.
  • The Q&A & Polling icons were a tiny bit too small hence it could be easily missed. The pages for admins to navigate the settings were quite confusing and definitely needs improvement.
