Overall Satisfaction with Socio

Socio was used for our annual convention and blockbuster seminars. It is easy to integrate a lot of great
features for our members so that we can provide the quality of CLE programs
that they expect. During COVID, Socio helped us so that our event didn't skip a
beat and we were able to keep the fun, energy, and excitement that we would
have had in an in-person event, virtually.

Socio definitely gave us the ability to allow our members to
customize their conference experience. If you want to attend in person, you
can. If you want to watch from home, you can. And if you want to do a
combination of the two, you can. Socio really helped us to meet the needs of
pretty much all of our members.

  • Customer service was great
  • The creativity was endless with lots of great ideas on how to make the event fun
  • Love the overall design of the app
  • Maybe more ways for vendors to interact
  • More features for the breakout rooms
  • Speaker bios
  • Live streaming
  • Video capabilities
  • Ability to upload materials
  • The chatroom
  • Allowed us to continue to deliver CLE to our members
  • Allowed us to make our budgetary goals
I haven't really used any other platforms that are exactly like Socio.

Socio is great for seminars. We are able to house our materials and links to the speakers' bios, which is so helpful. Everyone has a smartphone and Socio helped us to give our members the education they need right at their fingertips. It also helped eliminate the paper waste and gave people another way to interact with each other and vendors.
