The use cases of CrowdCompass are extensive, ranging from regional to global events. It provides valuable information on schedules, sessions, handouts, event communications, and even social media engagement. The app supports gamification features, custom content creation, and personalized schedules for specific groups. This has proven to be particularly useful for small events management departments, as it enhances their efficiency and enables effective communication with attendees.

CrowdCompass has addressed several common problems faced by event organizers. Its ability to eliminate the need for printing handouts not only helps reduce costs but also promotes environmental consciousness. Additionally, the app generates additional revenue through banner ad sales while providing trackable attendee engagement data. For large conferences and events in the travel incentive industry, CrowdCompass has successfully tackled on-site communication challenges by offering personalized schedules and push notifications.

Integration with Cvent SMM has been a significant advantage for many users, as it saves time and provides real-time updates and changes during events.

So far, our sales team has been using CrowdCompass to find new and inventive ways to keep up with the changing trends in the hospitality industry. I help to manage the sales team but do not use CrowdCompass myself, so my review will be based off how my staff feels it is working so far.

I am the administrator for CrowdCompass in our organization. We integrate with Cvent and use it for our flagship conference which is 1,000 people from 85 countries every year. Besides myself, we have a couple of other users from my department and the marketing department to make sure everything is functioning and looks great.

This year we stopped printing personalized schedules for attendees at our 1,000 person conference. Instead, their schedules were in the app. This accomplished several goals: it saved hours of work our interns used to have to spend merging and printing schedules, it saved money on printing, it saved paper (trees), and it drove up our app adoption rate. With more people using the app, were were able to communicate better with attendees, facilitate more in-app networking, and allow our attendees to boost our social media presence.

We use CrowdCompass with our client events. Our attendees can use the app to access documents, maps and their agenda. We occasionally use the gamification, but most of our meetings are corporate meetings and they do not have the time to play the game.

We use CrowdCompass for our Client's corporate events and training meetings. We use it across the entire organization. It really helps to cut down on printing and spending collateral since all of the information can be put in an attendees hands.

CrowdCompass is used for our annual conference. We needed a way to communicate with attendees - schedules, updates, conference layout, etc. As well as for the attendees to communicate with each other for networking purposes.

We use CrowdCompass primarily in the US across a broad range of departments. We utilize the integration with Cvent and it has been a game-changer for us. Having the agenda and speakers sync over into the app and not having to duplicate the work of re-building all that content in a separate system is awesome.

We use CrowdCompass for our annual conference app. I am the sole user of CrowdCompass and set everything up myself. We utilize features like schedule, speakers, FAQs, and attendees. Using the app lets us update schedules on the fly and push notifications to let anyone know of the changes.

We use CrowdCompass at our two flagship events, an advocacy conference and a large NYC conference. We use it to keep our attendees both engaged and informed before, during, and after the event. It allows us to go (mostly) paperless and impress our attendees. Both groups contain a mix of older and younger users. The younger group really adopts the technology, while the older appreciates the ease with which they can use the app.

We use CrowdCompass for the two conferences we hold annually. This has been a huge time-saver for us, as we no longer have to print any handouts for attendees, nor do we have to print out Speaker Evaluations and forms for attendees to complete their CE hours.

CrowdCompass was used by our marketing team to support our annual conferences. It was downloaded and used organization-wide at the event. We used it to connect our staff, attendees, and sponsors with our event. It helped support engagement initiatives and connect with attendees. It also provided access to information about our event and schedule.

We use CrowdCompass at our flagship events such as our annual conference. The app has really helped us to streamline communication and distribution of materials for attendees, increased attendee engagement through live polling, live Q&A, gamification and enhanced networking capabilities and helped us to reach our goal of going paperless at these events.

Our organization is using CrowdCompass and recently branded it as our own app. Our member attendees have adopted CrowdCompass, and CrowdCompass is helping us with managing our attendees and their schedules. We also use Crowd Compass for live notifications during our events.

We use it to provide our participants with an event mobile app, allowing us to send important reminder via push notifications. It eliminates/minimizes the need for paper copies of the information, allowing our events to be more "green".

Our department uses CrowdCompass for all of our North America regional Professional Development events and our annual global conference. By having information readily available for participants on a very straightforward app, we're cutting our use of paper collateral in an effort to be more sustainable. We're also able to communicate with attendees in a more timely manner.

We use CrowdCompass as a way to engage our event participants in a fun manner. We have used the real time session selections. I love that we are able to customize the widgets and upload exactly what we need and want to appear. I also love that we can upload our own, custom graphics to make the look and feel of the app represent our brand. The push notifications are great for sending out new and exciting information and continuing the engagement.

We use CrowdCompass at a biannual event that we host. It helps us communicate with attendees, share information about the event and sessions, distribute marketing, and overall manage our event more succinctly and efficiently. I am the administrator and approximately 300 people use the app at the actual event.

It is used by our Event planners of our Education Team and by our Leaders/Volunteers etc. through Cvent app.
As a non-profit organization, this really helps us promote our brand, keep our volunteers and attendees/participants connected, engaged and productive. We house our events and year-round communications within a single mobile app, making an easily accessible and centralized location for all your end-user information. The check-in and badge pickup process have been refined after using this app.

We used CrowdCompass along with Cvent for our annual user conference. The interface is somewhat easy to navigate but definitely could use some reconfiguring. We used the app for a single event and the sign-on and customization was great. All our users were also pleased with the app. Only 2 of our marketing users were in charge of the app. The ability to sign on with multiple people would be nice, without the extra charge. It seemed like most of the features were 'extra charge'.
