Wave Connect vs. Zoho Backstage

Wave Connect is an event lead capture and AI badge scanning platform, and the digital business card used by 200,000+ professionals across 50+ industries. At trade shows and conferences, Wave Connect turns any smartphone into an AI badge scanner and lead retrieval app. Exhibitors scan any event badge, batch-scan stacks of paper business cards, and qualify leads right on the booth floor. Every scan becomes an enriched, CRM-ready lead synced to HubSpot, Salesforce, and other CRMs in real time, so follow-up starts before the booth comes down.
