Event App Feature List

PLATFORM

Seamless Experience: The Event App helps drive ongoing attendee engagement and delivers a consistent and branded experience. It can be used as a second screen for attendees to engage with during virtual events, for attendees on-the-go, or for attendees attending your event in-person.

Secure login: Keep your event and attendees’ data safe with enterprise-grade security, password-protected events, and built­in and privacy controls. You can also enable Single Sign On for a seamless log in experience.

Personalized Home Screen: Give attendees easy access  to key details, live and upcoming sessions, and surveys with  a personalized and dynamic home screen based on their registration. From this view, attendees can submit any event  or session feedback, manage, and modify their registration, and learn more about featured exhibitors. You can also create targeted content for specific groups of attendees.

Agenda Building: The Event App also provides the entire event schedule following any rules you have setup for attendee scheduling in registration and notifies attendees when session fees need to be collected or prompts them to join a waitlist if
a session is full. Attendees can also schedule appointments straight from the app and sync their schedules with external calendars.

Travel Details: Let attendees see the travel details they selected at registration for quick reference.

INSIGHTS & INCENTIVES

Web Analytics (Clicks & Views): Analyze clicks and views to understand what content is being engaged with the most, so you can improve your events program.

Engagement Scoring: Engagement Scoring aggregates your attendees’ activities into a numerical score that can be used to evaluate their overall engagement and inform sales and marketing follow up.

Exhibitor/Sponsor Reporting: Give your exhibitors and sponsors information on who is viewing their in-app profile, links, and documents.

Attendee Feedback: Allow attendees to give their feedback about your event, speakers, and sessions to help improve their event experience.

Content remains one of the top drivers of attendance at events but coordinating speakers and sessions can be challenging. Our Speaker Resource Center helps you streamline communications with your speakers and collaborate with them on logistics and content.

Coordinate Speaker Activities Provide your speakers with a direct link to the Speaker Resource Center so they can stay organized and easily prepare for speaking at your event. Keep your speaker details in one place to increase speaker engagement and view speaker activity.

Manage Speaker Tasks

Automate speaker task assignment and collect session content by creating the necessary tasks for your event, and having the flexibility to assign them to all speakers or individual ones. Review speaker task and session reports to always have a clear view of task progress.

Send Key Notifications

Stay on schedule and eliminate the need for manual outreach with speaker notifications. There’s no longer a need to track down speaker agreements, headshots, bios, session information, or presentation slides. You can schedule automated and custom tasks and send custom emails to your speakers.

The right content can make or break your event, but finding and curating the top speakers and content is a tall order. Abstract Management allows you to simplify and efficiently run a Call for Papers and crowdsource great content.

You can be confident that you’ll deliver speakers and content that educate and inspire attendees.
