The breakout rooms will allow up to 200 people to gather, chat, and connect in a virtual room at your events.
Breakout rooms are a feature integrated into Brella that allows you to create closed or open virtual rooms for your events to gather up to a hundred participants including the moderators.
Moderators can start testing the rooms beforehand, and participants will join effortlessly without the need for third-party tools. Let's get you started!
