Accelevents

Event teams that run registration in one tool, the agenda in another and badges in a third spend much of their time moving data between them. Accelevents sells event management software that puts those jobs onto a single platform, and says it is meant for in-person, virtual and hybrid events alike. Its current site is aimed at event professionals who care about detail, and the company describes the product as enterprise-grade while stressing that it should be easy to set up and customize.

Before the event: registration, agenda and marketing

Registration is built around personalized sign-up journeys that collect the information an organizer needs. Ticketing sits alongside it: a host can set up a ticketing page and start selling tickets within minutes, create tiers of tickets and follow progress as sales come in. Agenda and speaker management is meant for complex schedules with many sessions and presenters, and there is an event marketing component for promoting the event.

On the day: check-in, badges and the event app

Attendees can check themselves in at the venue and print their own badges, and the badge design tool lets organizers shape how those badges look. A mobile event app helps people plan their visit and meet other attendees. For exhibitors and sponsors there is a self-service resource center, so that they can handle their own tasks without constant contact with the organizer, and lead capture is part of the same workflow.

Virtual and hybrid delivery

A virtual event hub supports content that is streamed live or offered on demand, which is how the same platform covers online conferences as well as hybrid events that mix a physical venue with remote audiences. The company says the software works on any device, so attendees can join from a laptop, tablet or phone.

Integrations and moving from another platform

The vendor says integrations keep event data moving between the platform and other systems, and it also offers to do the heavy lifting for organizers who are switching from a different event platform. It frames the product as a single platform for the full event lifecycle, as opposed to a patchwork of separate tools.

Support and learning resources

Support is a main part of the pitch. The company says its help comes from real people, not bots, at any hour of the day, and that response times are under 30 seconds. Detailed product documentation and a blog covering industry news and event management practice are also available.

Who uses it

Event professionals at conferences, trade shows and associations, along with field marketing and enterprise event teams, are the groups the site addresses, particularly those who want customization without a sprawl of separate tools.
