Networking on Ring Central (formerly Hopin Events) is the place for automated one-on-one meetings and is the platform’s way of facilitating connection discovery at an event. Similar to an experience that feels like FaceTime or Hangouts, Ring Central pairs two people over a direct video call.
In Networking, when someone clicks on the JOIN button, the system searches for someone else who has also clicked the JOIN button. If someone else is available, the person's profile details show up on the screen for some seconds and then the two are matched instantly and the video chat begins and lasts for a preset amount of time.
Networking sessions have a 3-minute duration and can be extended for another 3-minutes, as desired. Attendees see a timer countdown on the top side of the screen. When the time expires, the meeting ends. For longer conversations, we recommend utilizing the 1:1 or Meetings functions.
