How to create excellent online events
AAE Online Conference Systems Showcase Day
09:00 - 17:00, Tuesday 16th March 2021
As last year’s move to online working continues into 2021, online events have become the norm. To help the not-for-profit sector deliver excellent online events, the Association of Association Executives (AAE) is holding an Online Conference Systems Showcase Day on Tuesday 16th March.
This free one day virtual event will showcase leading online conferencing systems best suited to membership organisations and associations. Pixl8 will be giving a deep dive demo of eventfolio - our online events platform. This will be followed by a Q&A with Scott Cole, Head of Commercial at Pixl8.
Breaking the online events barrier
One potential problem with online conferencing are the technical difficulties that can arise. Unreliable or outdated technology can result in an inability to host or join virtual events, leading, to a bad experience for attendees - and unfavourable views of hosts.
Lack of interaction between attendees can be another downside to online conferencing. Engaging participants and encouraging conversation is vital.
However, thanks to the increasing number of software options available, the benefits of online conferencing systems are clear:
- They are solutions which can be implemented quickly and affordably
- They help organisations of all sizes and with all types of event needs
- Online events become instantly scalable with an unlimited virtual space
- They drive engagement - polls, Q&A and comments - delivering vital insights
Engage more members with eventfolio
eventfolio is the all-in-one event management and online conference platform that can be standalone or part of our ReadyMembership solution. The software gives you everything you need to run a portfolio of events from initial launch through to year-round marketing. It comes with an integral CRM or can be integrated with a third-party system, such as Salesforce or Dynamics.
Last year, the Pixl8 team accelerated the delivery of the Zoom integration with eventfolio. This integration generates unique joining links for each webinar attendee, offering a higher level of security than the standard Zoom Webinar.
Other benefits include:
- Embedding live event streams (via third-party providers) on your website
- Live stream catch up - allowing delegates to start from the beginning of the session if they arrive late (only available with certain live stream providers)
- Inline Comments, Questions and Polls
- Daily agendas for multiple conferences
- View upcoming sessions and receive notifications of when a session you booked on is about to start
- Speaker directory linked to sessions they are speaking in
Book your free Showcase ticket now and see how eventfolio works on 24th February.
After the demo you will be able to ask our Head of Commercial, Scott Cole, questions about the system in a live Q&A session.
