Briefly means "in a short period of time". You can wait briefly, talk briefly, or sleep briefly.

Concisely means "conveying a lot of meaning with very few words". You can speak or write concisely, but you can not wait or sleep concisely.

Briefly: using a few words. Concisely: using a few words that sound better.

Briefly, is more like doing something quickly.

Brief is short, nothing else. Just the points.
