• User-friendly. It's easy for us to train other team members/staff/volunteers to use the front-end system for registration and event check-in.
• Social Tables is great for creating custom room layouts and diagrams.
• Social tables is customizable. We're able to capture specific information for attendees, and can "tag" them when additional info is needed.

• The app keeps everyone up-to-date with real-time notifications of how participants are viewing presentations, promotions and notices
• It enables exhibitors to view participants, including competitors, before going live in order to ensure equal opportunity and better understanding of how best to operate
• The meeting forums, such as integrated Zoom, were robust enough technology for those with cutting-edge gear as well as those less tech-savvy who might have older components as they worked for all types of hardware.
• The app seemed to capture the "Community" feeling one gets when attending a live show with personal messages, public and private message groups, introductory procedures and an all-inclusive design suitable for any user

• I didn't pay to use the technology; was a recipient as a result of attending a conference. HIGH ROI for me as a made a number of new contacts even though I spent the first full day listening to presentations. Having the app allowed me to do the networking I came to do without having to be seated next to the person I wanted to meet.
