Overall Satisfaction with Whova

I used Whova at a conference hosted by the Michigan [..]. I was a speaker discussing your new technology platform. Whova aided with all the conference arrival details, event times and their location. It was an easy download app to connect with venders and additional meet and greet opportunities. I am not much for the point challenge but I did see many participated in the social aspect to the app. I would recommend Whova to other companies that are coordinating big events, it was a useful tool for all user groups.
  • Event Timelines
  • Attendee Lists
  • Participating Vender Lists
  • Personal Areas of Interest Selection List
  • Speaker Timing Schedules need to better regulated. My session started when it was suppose to end for the next speaker. That disrupts the event schedule for attendees that were looking to attend my discussion.
  • We were there to present our new upcoming tech and gather feedback from the potential user groups. We are not revenue driven at this moment. Launch is a year away.
  • The speaker schedules got mixed up and delayed therefore we were unable to connect with the users in our category. Our product would have been better received at a Dietetics or Nutritionist Event not just a general Healthcare New Tech Event.
  • In this particular situation the event wasn't a good participation fit for our product.

Do you think Whova delivers good value for the price?

Not sure

Are you happy with Whova's feature set?

Yes

Did Whova live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Whova go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Whova again?

Yes

Multiple day conferences and events that are in multiple facility locations are definitely a must. Hotel and shuttle information to and from event are extremely useful for out of towers. Smaller events in one location will most likely not benefit from the app. I could even see this app being used for an out to town wedding app to help coordinate week long events for the attendees and bridal parties, times, locations, parking, shuttles,t ours etc.
