Head to Head

How Boop Compares

Boop vs Popl

Choose Boop if:

  • You want to capture next steps while the lead is still at your booth, not chase them with follow-up emails days later
  • You need something that works on crowded conference WiFi (SMS uses cell networks, not internet)
  • You want your team up and running in minutes with no training required

Popl is great for:

  • Universal badge scanning across events
  • Easy to use digital business card experience
  • Sharing multiple links at once

Boop vs Blinq

Choose Boop if:

  • You need native next step capture (meetings, resources, calls), not just contact info
  • You want SMS-based engagement that works without internet

Blinq is great for:

  • Digital business card exchange
  • QR/NFC contact sharing
  • CRM sync (HubSpot, Salesforce)

Boop vs Dot

Choose Boop if:

  • You need CRM integration and next step capture

Dot is designed for:

  • Personal branding and contact sharing
  • Simple NFC digital business cards
  • Basic analytics
The SMS Advantage

Why SMS-based capture matters

SMS isn't just convenient — it's the most effective channel for event engagement

Works Offline

Venue internet is notoriously unreliable, but SMS works on cell networks, not WiFi.

Stays Engaged

SMS conversations are more engaging than static form pages that attendees abandon.

Instant Commitment

Follow-up emails get lost in inboxes, but next steps get confirmed before they walk away.
