It helped me navigate during the event and had the pertinent information and filters to help me get to where I need to go.

UI can be improved, colors, buttons. With the style of other apps that are available, the style seems a bit outdated.

Overall, the experience with ConnexMe was exceptional for keeping remote/virtual attendees engaged. We wanted an app that was easy to access and use, yet powerful enough to overcome distractions for business people attending events. ConnexMe delivered on all fronts!

Very easy to set up polls that provided great feedback for our presenters. As a user, the live audio and note-taking on slides as they were presented made me feel very connected to the content and presenters even though I was remote. It was easy to network with other attendees using ConnexMe and getting my questions actually answered during the sessions helped me understand things in real-time.

No real cons come to mind. If anything, would have liked for an integration with our custom CRM (which no one seems to have>)

I had high hopes for Evenium ConnexME, and I think with some time, they'll have everything worked out. But it's just not ready. The registration functions are great and it's easy to pull various reports on registrants. We didn't have a need to work much with the agenda feature, but it appeared to work very well. The people I worked with from Evenium were fairly responsive and did try to solve any problems and answer our questions. It's not really geared to hybrid events - the interface and all functions are identical whether you are in-person or online. So, the attendee sitting in the room can watch the stream. Fortunately for us, Evenium agreed to not charge us for any viewing hours of in-person attendees who watched the stream. The chat function worked well, as did polling, and we were able to pull transcripts and other analytics afterwards.

The two biggest issues we had were A) that attendees had a hard time understanding the process for accessing the event, and that once they accessed the event, they weren't able to see the stream; and B) the stream performance was very inconsistent. Some viewers could hear the audio but not see video. Some could neither hear nor see. Several viewers reported the video would play for 5 seconds and then stop. Tech suppport's solution was to reload, but that rarely solved the problem. It was suggested that the viewers' poor bandwidth was causing the drops. However, I joined as an attendee, and had at least 20 Mbps up and down, and it would drop for me as well. Our Evenium contact admitted dissatisfaction with some third party streaming technologies they were using, and that they were developing their own. In the end, there was no concrete solution or answer provided, and we await hearing that they've solved the problem.

It's a very clean interface. The mobile app isn't white label but that's ok for most events. The screen casting is quite unique. Audience interaction tools are top notch.

It doesn't seamless integrate with abstract collection & evaluation platforms. To build the agenda you'd have to export from your system, reformat the data, then use Evenium's spreadsheet template to upload into its system.

It allowed all members of our conference committee to engage.

It seamlessly creates a central hub for all attendees that allows them to not only interact during the conference itself but on off campus as well. It has the ability for have the attendees write notes and asks questions during the conference without interrupting the speaker. The agenda portion allows the attendees to know exactly what the schedule is and where they are expected. It allows the administrator to adjust the agenda and send pings to the users phones if any changes or reminders need to be sent.

Agenda adjustments take time and if changes need to be made it isn't easy. Training was required for each presenter. Ticket scanning was also very time consuming.

The benefits of creating more fun and interesting ways for the audience to engage with each other and the presenters.

Loved the variety of ways the app could be used to promote audience engagement. I also appreciated that I could hire someone from the company as tech support during the event so I didn't have to worry if anything went wrong, which it didn't. The fellow who came down as tech support went above and beyond with additional tips and showing workarounds to make using the app more interesting for the audience. Additionally, many attendees came up to me afterwards and remarked how much easier the app was to use than other conference apps.

I have no negative remarks to make about Evenium.

An enhanced attendee experience.

Gives the attendee an additional experience they would not get otherwise at a price for us that is reasonable, especially when considering the alternative options pricing model.

There is indeed a learning curve but once up to speed it is quite easy to use. Setting up the even takes a couple of times to make sure you set it up they way that works for you. This is not a complaint about having to many options, I promise.

Easy to use, all around. Intuitive experience to post updates and photos. Kept users engaged.

I could not edit my own post after posting. Text window a bit too small and didn't allow me to scroll to proof my message prior to posting.

Higher attendance to workshops and organized flow of the event overall.

Evenium app was very intuitive from both an admin and end user perspective which resulted not only in great feedback from attendees but also resulted in higher attendance to our workshops.

A couple times a handful of users had some difficulty finding our event but once we got past that issue, everything went flawlessly.

Love the ability to connect with others and how I can send messages to people I'm interested in talking with. It makes meeting with others simple

The UI is still clunky, and at times can be difficult to use. I do like what the software offers, but it could be better designed.

greater collaboration among conference and event delegates. single source of truth for an event. encourages social interaction

mobile interface was easy to use and attractive; feature set was quite robust and offered useful features for various types of event scenarios

backend configuration can sometimes require a learning curve. requires some training and familiarity in advance but once you understand how it works, the configuration process becomes easier

usage at event - great attendee communication and engagement. clean look, good customization options really like the polling option

Event setup - things are in weird spots for setup, not intuitive or obvious; personalizing agendas is time consuming and frustrating, not straightforward.

It kept me up to date as to what I was using it for during my conference

I used this at a conference that I attended for work. It was very easy to navigate. Each day I was able to go back and see anything that I had previously used or did.

Thee wasn't really anything that I disliked or liked the least in this software. It was very easy to use and navigate.

I liked that I could easily see everyones profiles and connect with people at the conference. I also liked the schedule function where i could star the events I wanted to attend.

I couldn't figure out how to complete the evaluations for the sessions I attended at the conference. This was the only negative I found with the app.

Easy to use; great value for money; responsive team; integrated approach from invites through to implementation.

Some enhancements could include: participants selecting which sessions they will attend and organisers being able to see (favorites).

Interacting with event attendees - both before the event and during. Live polls and question/comments are the most engaging

Good functionality for event attendees to submit questions/comments and answer polls, both before an event and during an event. Fantastic customer service and relatively intuitive to use

You would have to train another person to run the polls and switch back and forth between screens if you are on stage speaking. In the case of several sessions going on at the same time for a single event like a conference, it is hard for the moderator to know which questions are for their particular session

Selecting your "favorites" and being able to only see those items during the conference. I liked the participants list.

Sometimes it was difficult to navigate back to the full agenda. When there were multiple sessions taking place at the same time, sometimes the expanded menu was difficult to expand and collapse.

The ability to edit instantly and have it go live so quickly. Also the live interaction it can offer between attendees and presenters.

We are only in the trial and planning stages and haven't come across any cons yet. Will let you know more when we decide.

The app was easy to use and navigate. The days of our event were simple enough to browse. Easy to load content and branding. The network enjoyed the "status updates" and sharing content and photos.

Couldn't brand completely to our styles. Cannot used offline which was difficult for those without wifi who traveled internationally

It had all the features we needed and really helped to get our attendees connected to one another. I love that we could screenshot the presentation slides and our attendees could take it home with them.

It was not the most customizable/attractive app out there compared to others. There were very few opportunities for branding.

The immediate attendees report and use of mobile devices for check in. I have set up the event via laptops and then check attendees via iPad and mobile device.

The UI could be a bit more modern. There should be more graphics reflecting invitees and non attendees.
