CrowdPass vs Juno

The NFC-First Alternative to Juno

Juno (formerly part of the Socio platform, now independent) focuses on enterprise hybrid events with networking, mobile apps, and analytics. It is designed for mid-market to enterprise organizations running conferences and internal events. Juno's badge printing and NFC capabilities are limited compared to CrowdPass's dedicated on-site technology.

Choose Juno if you need

  • Enterprise hybrid events with networking, gamification, and mobile engagement are your focus
