Make it social — increase engagement
Go further with social. Allow your attendees to add social buttons in
their individual profiles making it easy for new connections to be made.
Social connections
Great events are like stories — unfolding into some pretty memorable moments. But in the age of Instagram, Twitter and smartphones, you need the right tools to capture the whole story.
SocialWall lets planners curate tweets and Instagram posts along with custom posts on the big screen at an event. Better yet, that content is also featured in your app’s Event Compass to spark excitement and engagement.
SocialWall
Social game
Ever notice how many people are snapping selfies and photos with friends? Wouldn’t it be great to make a game of it? Excite your attendees with Click, our interactive scavenger hunt game! Click creates fun photo challenges that encourage attendees to explore your event in a personal way. Attendee photos are tied to their CrowdCompass account and planners can moderate photos if needed.
Attendee messaging
Give attendees what they’re used to: instant communication. Attendees can use the mobile event app to communicate with each other directly — no phone number or email address needed. Message threads are saved for each attendee, making it simple to manage conversations.
Foster attendee engagement that lives beyond the event
Leverage social for more than just sharing — make real connections
Streamline the attendee experience by allowing social engagement from right within the app
Connecting with people is easier when your social media accounts are already in your profile
Different attendees prefer different social media sites — get all the social options

Get year-round ROI
Year-round engagement starts with the multi-event app. Apps are no longer just for one big event. Create one app and feature multiple events throughout the year. Think of it as a brand new marketing channel to
reach and engage your attendees.
Multi-event app
Change the way you communicate with attendees. Leverage your new marketing channel to send push notifications on the fly or schedule them in advance to reach attendees before, during and after events. The pop-up notifications are similar to a text message and don’t get lost in email. Keep attendees tuned in to important announcements or other key news between events.
Powerful push messages
Did attendees like a session, love a new speaker? In-app surveys make gathering feedback before, during or after the event simple. Planners choose when and where surveys appear. Pose questions on the home screen to reach all attendees or get feedback on specific sessions and presenters.
Instant attendee feedback
Other year-round features
Reach attendees before, during and after your events with push notifications
Gather more than just session feedback — survey attendees year round to stay connected
Go further with advertising — leverage ongoing engagement to sell year long sponsorships
One and done — only download one app to gain year round access to events
Access presentations, abstracts, notes and messages long after the event is over
Continue learning all year long with ongoing updates from event organizers

Demonstrate ROI in real time. Look to our robust event analytics dashboard for engagement and usage data. With 30+ metrics available, you can clearly see why it is worth it to go mobile. Provide sponsors and partners with detailed performance information on banner ads by date range as well as data on total impressions, total taps, impressions by user and taps by user.

You’re safe with usCrowdCompass makes significant
investments in state-of-the-art infrastructure in order to meet or exceed customer expectations in performance, reliability and security. CrowdCompass
goes beyond the minimal requirements to ensure that data is safe with PCI level one
compliance, all while maintaining a historical uptime above 99.99%.
Data backups are run on an hourly basis. All backups are stored on S3 and are highly redundant and secure. Databases are replicated with automatic failover if the designated master fails. We are deployed in two availability zones at AWS—we are running in the same region, but are running in different segments or data centers. This provides greater durability and ensures load is also spread throughout the system.
Operations infrastructure
SSAE-16 compliant
256 bit SSL encryption
300+ software engineers
Quick key facts
Redundancy
With a high level of visibility into the system, staff can diagnose issues immediately—often before problems occur. CrowdCompass’ Internet Operations team is constantly monitoring thousands of alert generating performance variables to ensure a consistently high level of service.
Monitoring
An internal SSAE 16, SOC II, Type II audit is completed at least once annually. CrowdCompass has been successfully evaluated at the Moderate level for federal government systems as well as DIACAP Level 2 for Department of Defense systems.
Auditing
Our mobile apps are designed to be extremely fault-tolerant and effective offline. The more common case, rather than a disaster, is bad conference Wi-Fi or loss of connectivity during the event. In that case, the apps function in offline mode -- taking advantage of truly being native apps -- and send data back to the servers when the device regains connectivity.
App fault tolerance
Security infrastructure
Our data center services are located in a secured facility — AWS US-WEST-2 (Oregon) — that uses video cameras, multi-factor access control and individually keyed server racks. AWS has achieved ISO 27001 certification and has been validated as a Level 1 service provider under the Payment Card Industry (PCI) Data Security Standard (DSS).
Physicalsecurity
CrowdCompass uses a multi-layered approach based on proven security practices, including intrusion detection, permission-based firewalls and DoS protection. Data is transmitted through TCP/IP protocols.
Networksecurity
CrowdCompass restricts access to your data based on the principle of least privilege. Access to all databases, applications, operating systems and physical media is strictly managed to ensure only individuals with a specified need have access to your data. All development is done in-house by our 30+ CrowdCompass Software Engineers.
Controlledaccess
The app-to-backend authentication credentials are not unique per app user. The communication mechanism between the app and the backend CMS (EventCenter) is 256 bit SSL encrypted and are encrypted during transit.
The backend has been penetration tested. The mobile app stores data locally on encrypted SQLite database files. There are no sensitive details in the source code or the packaged app including the APK or iOS binary files.
