Top 5 App Features That Improve Event Experiences

When choosing an app for your upcoming event, keep in mind that the goal is increased productivity. The app should make it easier to engage with what is most valuable to you and your attendees–anytime, anywhere, and on any device. The app should make it easy for everyone to find the content they need and it should make the event easier to manage. Read on for tips on what to consider before choosing an app for your next event.

One-Stop Event Management

Look for an intuitive, interactive digital space that guides you to the information you need now. Your app should make it easy to keep an eye on important analytics, add or update your branding and colors, set up special roles and permissions, and more, all in one place. You’ll need access from your desktop, of course, but make sure all the features are available on mobile, too, so you can get things done on the fly.

Customizable Look & Feel

Does your app offer customizable colors and fonts? You could use the app’s default settings, but it’s a better idea to take advantage of the opportunity to incorporate your company’s specific style and branding. The app experience should reflect the look and feel of of your event and that of your company. Don’t forget to personalize with icons, slogans, and logos!

Smart Matching

Want your attendees to get the most out of your event? Use an event app that takes the guesswork out of networking. Smart matching helps attendees find the most relevant people, sessions, and exhibitors at an event. By highlighting recommendations, attendees will spend less time searching and more time getting things done.

Surveys & Audience Response

Want to know what your attendees are thinking? Make sure your app features a way to ask them! Gather feedback before, after, or even during sessions with surveys, real-time polling, and Q&A’s. Gather your attendee’s feedback about their needs and expectations and you’ll be on your way to developing new strategies for your next successful event.

Gaming Options

If you’re looking for fun, interactive ways to keep your attendees engaged, you’ll want to choose an event app with built-in gaming capabilities. Get your attendees into the game with fun-to-play options that keep them coming back to the app. Create a personalized gaming strategy with unique incentives to promote key behaviors and reward interactions.
