What is Eventcombo?

Eventcombo is filling the funnel with planner-workflow guides while leaning on G2 badges for trust signals.

The feed is dominated by evergreen event-planning content — guides on logistics, risk management, cancellation, webinars, check-in, and digital kiosks — interleaved with one bottom-funnel ON24 alternatives post and a G2 Spring 2026 badges announcement. Nothing in the feed describes a product release or feature change; the only branded news is the G2 recognition.

What is SRS?

SRS opens a 7.0 line built on a Go proxy tier, and drops features it no longer wants to carry.

SRS shipped the stable 6.0 line's first release on 12 August and, three hours later, the first development build of 7.0. The 6.0 line is now in pure maintenance — the r1 changelog is seven merges of DVR, WebRTC and edge fixes. Everything new is in 7.0-d0: RTSP playback, RTMPS, IPv6 across every protocol, HEVC in both directions between RTMP and WebRTC, and HLS fMP4 segments for HEVC and LL-HLS.

MEETINGS
5.0

Eventcombo is filling the funnel with planner-workflow guides while leaning on G2 badges for trust signals.

◆ Current state

The feed is dominated by evergreen event-planning content — guides on logistics, risk management, cancellation, webinars, check-in, and digital kiosks — interleaved with one bottom-funnel ON24 alternatives post and a G2 Spring 2026 badges announcement. Nothing in the feed describes a product release or feature change; the only branded news is the G2 recognition.

◆ Where it's heading

Eventcombo is using practitioner-style operational content to position itself as the seasoned event-ops platform rather than a flashy newcomer. The mix of in-person operations (kiosks, check-in, logistics) and virtual/hybrid (webinars, ON24 displacement) signals a deliberate refusal to pick a side in the in-person vs. virtual debate. G2 badges are being amortized as the credibility anchor.

◆ Prediction

Expect more alternative/comparison posts targeting Cvent, Bizzabo, and Hopin in the coming weeks, plus continued operational deep-dives leading into peak event season (Q3). Look for at least one actual product post tied to the G2 recognition — vendors usually pair badge announcements with feature releases when one is in the pipeline.

6.3

SRS opens a 7.0 line built on a Go proxy tier, and drops features it no longer wants to carry.

◆ Current state

SRS shipped the stable 6.0 line's first release on 12 August and, three hours later, the first development build of 7.0. The 6.0 line is now in pure maintenance — the r1 changelog is seven merges of DVR, WebRTC and edge fixes. Everything new is in 7.0-d0: RTSP playback, RTMPS, IPv6 across every protocol, HEVC in both directions between RTMP and WebRTC, and HLS fMP4 segments for HEVC and LL-HLS.

◆ Where it's heading

The project is trading breadth of legacy surface for a narrower, better-covered core. 7.0-d0 removes the embedded GB28181 SIP server, multi-threading, Cygwin, and most configuration hot reload, while introducing a Go proxy server and origin-cluster architecture alongside the C++ media core. Protocol coverage keeps generalizing — each release makes a codec or an address family a property of the server rather than of one delivery path.

◆ Prediction

Expect the 7.0 line to run a long alpha and beta train the way 6.0 did, with the Go proxy and origin clustering carrying most of the remaining work and 6.0 continuing to receive backported fixes in parallel.
