3CX lands V20 Update 9 — redesigned web client and AI assistants in the PBX
A side-by-side editorial comparison of BigMarker and Eventscase — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Webinar engagement polish, no AI in sight.
BigMarker is shipping a steady weekly cadence of small engagement and lead-capture primitives — giveaways, in-webinar CTA pop-ups, emoji reactions, chat in waiting rooms, grid survey questions. The work is concentrated on registration-form flexibility and live-event interactivity, not on the AI summarization, clipping, or translation features competitors are racing to add.
Eventscase's feed is an events-industry blog, with EVA assistant work the only product thread
The tracked feed is Eventscase's events-industry blog plus monthly news round-ups, not a conventional changelog. Most of the recent window is editorial (evergreen-content, internal-events, data-strategy, whitepaper promos), with the recurring product thread being EVA, the company's WhatsApp-based virtual event assistant, including a post on EVA gaining voice-note support.

The work is concentrated on registration-form flexibility and live-event interactivity, not on the AI summarization, clipping, or translation features competitors are racing to add.
The platform is doubling down on its identity as a marketer's webinar tool — registration funnels, lead capture, attendee engagement signals — rather than chasing the AI-overlay narrative. Recent additions like the merge field and webinar selector form suggest a focus on multi-event campaigns and cross-sell registration flows. This is a deliberate stay-in-lane bet, not a reinvention.
Expect more registration-flow and post-webinar reporting features tied to the lead-capture story. An AI feature — auto-summary, auto-clipping, or AI-driven attendee insights — is the obvious gap, and if it doesn't show up in the next 8–10 entries, it's a strategic choice rather than backlog ordering.

The company is steadily building its AI-for-events story around EVA and multi-source event data, repositioning from a pure event-management platform toward AI-assisted attendee experience and analytics. But the blog format keeps actual EVA capability changes mixed in with newsletters and whitepapers, so shipped detail is thin.
Expect continued EVA and AI-for-events content, likely with more assistant capabilities and data-integration framing. Concrete releases will keep surfacing inside blog posts rather than as discrete changelog entries.
