Turn-key Online Conference
Overall Satisfaction with Whova
I recently assisted Family Voices of California to conduct an online conference in the Whova app. There were lots of options for social connection, which impressed me because this is definitely something that is lacking in a typical online conference. I also liked how it managed the agendas for participants. They were able to switch workshops to other different offerings at that same time, just like they could at an in-person event. I felt it worked really well, and families did not seem to have too much trouble using it. Our agency has another online conference coming up. We used a different solution for the conference last year. This year I hope we will use Whova to host this conference.
Pros
- Community builder ice breakers
- Agenda visibility and flexibility
- Sharing of photos
- Chat
Cons
- integration with Zoom - the chat and q/a did not communicate to Whova
- tighter built in interpretation support
- If participants could self-direct to breakout groups
- Community Tools
- Agenda
- The Whova Event Manager was also a really nice experience and made the event successful for us, we did not need expertise beyond Zoom expertise.
- We got to outsource the expertise of conference setup - almost zero training costs
