Hi there! Looking to build an app for an upcoming client program. Wondering if anyone has any reccos for event based apps you've used. It would be great if there's a ticket integration feature.
@EventPlanner462 assuming Bizzabo could help? (Rachel is ex-Bizzabo for context Lindsey)
Thanks for tagging me in @EventPlanner963! @EventPlanner592 I’ll DM you with more info
Check out Gradual! I can intro you to the founder if you want!
What virtual event platform do you all use? Has anyone ever used Goldcast? I am looking to host a half day virtual user conference in the spring. Whatever we pick must have multi track capabilities and a sponsor showcase area. We currently use Demio for webinars (very simple tool) and tried AirMeet (hated it).
Can anyone recommend a reg software for a one day, all general session meeting for 200 pax? We need standard meeting items- speaker bios/photos, agenda, ticketing, comp codes, etc. Didn’t know who might be good for a one off event.
<!here>, we're kicking off this channel to be a dedicated space to support one another as event tech continues to rapidly evolve. This post on LinkedIn inspired me to ask - are you willing to share your event tech stack with the group here? It might help inspire other members to look into new solutions, or ask for your more specific advice or opinion on tech you currently use. As a reminder, we also have the #ai-for-events channel for those interested.
Anyone have a favorite webinar platform- open to whether you produced or were an attendee? We are looking to onboard one in our next fiscal year and I would love opinions. Looking at On24, Splash, Zoom events, Go to Webinar, Bizzaboo.
hi friends - looking for badge vendors that have products that encourage networking but are not tied for RFID (ie - individual QR codes to LinkedIn profiles, etc) would love any suggestions or things you have done in the past or vendors you have used... THANK YOU!
Hi all! I am looking into new possible namebadge printing software/hardware for our smaller scale events. We typically use Bizzabo and their printers for our larger events, but haven't found a great cost friendly option we can count on for the smaller events. Please let me know if you have any great options to share - thank you!
Curious if anyone has done a multi-breakout, multi-session event on a platform you loved. Does that even exist? I’m managing 80 sessions over 3 days in 6 different breakouts. We decided against one platform because they couldn’t produce a solid reference for someone who had done this large of an event and there were issues with the RTMP flow. The platform we are using has some nuances, especially on the production side that aren’t the best.
So what have you used that you like?
hi friends! looking for a solid event app vendor and appreciate any leads!! thank you and grateful for this group of pros!!
Hi All! Wondering if anyone uses Bizzabo for webinars & virtual events? I have not had hands-on experience with it, but my company 1) has it as a hold-over from a large user conference and 2) needs an upgraded webinar/virtual events platform (currently using Zoom). We are 95% certain we will resign, and will be hosting some test webinars next week, but I would love to hear feedback on Bizzabo's webinar/virtual event features from any current users. Thank you!
Has anyone used event software other than Splash and Bizzabo for event registration, save the dates, etc.? I’ve tried them both but recently Splash’s virtual capabilities have fallen short 🫤
Hi Everyone, I am planning four 100-150 person events and wanting to find a vendor that can do onsite badge printing and attendee check-in. I just got a quote from cvent that seems really high ($12K per city). Does anyone have any recommendations for other companies that help with event check-in/registration with badge printing?
Hey All! Im running point on a 200 person conference this fall, but having trouble finding an event registration platform that meets the following needs:
1. Paid registration options
2. Ability to have approval process to vet registrants before they pay
3. aesthetically pleasing and easy to use for registrants
I set up a glue up account but have not been having the best experience, and im trying out RSVPify, but if 1)anyone has any recommendations or 2) has tried any of these platforms please let me know 🙂

Hi all! I’m looking for a venue in NYC that will hold up to 250 people theatre style. I did this at spring studios last year which was obviously gorgeous but had to bring in own stage, chairs, etc. Looking for something more turnkey yet still well known. Let me know if you can help! :)
We are planning some private dining events in NYC and I'm curious if there are any hidden gems of event spaces or private dining rooms (Manhattan) that folks would recommend. Dinners will be about 25 people. We did the last one at Little Owl Townhouse and loved it!!
Hey everyone! I'm having the hardest time finding good non-hotel venues in NY for May for ~120 people (meet/feed). Any good and affordable recommendations?
Hi all! Looking for a super high-end restaurant in NYC with a private dining room that can accommodate a dinner for about 20-25 ppl. Something in the world of a new/interesting venue with a celeb chef or Michelin star (think Ci Siamo, less Le Bernadin). Midtown would be ideal but open to other areas of Manhattan.
Looking for restaurant recommendations that are open on a Sunday night (7:30 PM), mid-to-upscale for ~9 people in San Francisco (ideally downtown-ish area). Some of the places I've found that look great aren't open on Sundays!
Hi NYC event peeps, I’m looking for reco’s for a venue to host a one-day conference that can fit 1,000-2,000 attendees for a keynote, and 4 breakout sessions. Ideally in Manhattan. Obviously we’ve looked at usual suspects like Javits, Marquis, Hilton Midtown, Sheraton Times Sq, Manhattan Center, and Lincoln Center. Any other great candidates I’m missing?
I'm looking for a great #NYC (Manhattan) venue for a business conference. The space needs to have: (1) a general session room with stage that can comfortably hold between 200-250 people in classroom- or half-round table format; (2) at least two additional breakout rooms that can hold at least 50 people each in classroom or half-round format, and (3) vendor / sponsor space where they can set up tables and network. The event will be held in late September or early to mid October 2024 for 2 consecutive days (not including a Monday). Might you have an easy way to find options?
Hi colleagues - I'm looking to do a screening for about 150-ish ppl on 11/2 in NYC - in the evening. (This is all last-minute.) I'm looking into a few spaces, but would love to hear from you on what spaces you recommend.
Looking for a venue that can accommodate the following flow:
• A VIP reception (w/ drinks & hors d'oeuvres ) for 40-50 ppl, 40 mins prior to the general call-time
• Screening area would open at the general call-time and wld have drinks and food for the rest of the guests that arrive
• Once we have critical mass in the screening area we'll begin to intro the film and show it
• After the screening well do a talk-back/ Q&A with folx from the film
• Event ends
Thanks all!
Hi all! We're looking for an event to bring ~30 folks to in San Francisco in November. Things like sporting events suites (but on a weekday - so no 49ers, and the Warriors are a no-go) or big public events where we can treat our people like VIPs. Any locals have any suggestions? TY!
Looking for a fun event venue near the Mascone Center in SF...think not your typical cocktail/networking (ps. spin is unavailable)
Hi again! 👋 I am curious if anyone has any NY based restaurants or caterers they'd recommend that are women owned? We are looking to feature 1-2 restaurants/businesses at a happy hour next Thursday for about 60-70 people inclusive of all major dietary restrictions (gluten free, vegan, etc.) Thanks in advance!
Hi everyone !! I’m hoping to find an exclusive and difficult to get into restaurant to host 15-20 clients in NYC. We’ve already done The Polo Bar. Any other recommendations? If you also have a similar style rec for Dallas, Ill take that too :). Thanks!
