GoExpo Features

Very stable, very configurable. Handles complex integrations well and allows for inevitable inconsistencies in source data.

Could improve metrics portal, but we understand that desired metrics are a moving target... Admin areas could also use some improvement.

Thank you for the feedback Steve! It is always great to hear about positive experiences with our technology. We continue to improve our features and functionality and appreciate that you recognize our ability to solve complex problems.

Easy way to navigate a conference, and becoming the environmentally friendly choice

Too many reminders/notifications, time slots and actual session times differed, not enough customization

Sorry to hear there was not enough customization and the session times were off. We strive for continuous improvement and client communication is an important part of that process.

This app is easy for attendees to use. The functions seems intuitive for my members as I rarely received questions on how/where to navigate. So far as I know, the app performed as it should for each of the conferences we used it for. On the operations/logistics side: the Core-apps teams makes setting things up absolutely a breeze. They are fun to work with while being efficient and helpful. I can't recommended them enough.

I feel we get good value for what we pay for yet I have wondered why apps are as expensive as they are. I realize everyone need/wants to make money. It would be lovely if the pricing would be bit less. For a small trade association, it's a big price tag.

Sounds like we need to get you a sponsor through our Amplify offering!

Though more expensive than the other bids we got for our academic conference, this app has the benefit of an API that pulls the information directly from our All Academic database. This meant that changes to the core system, therefore, are automatically populated in the app, saving us significant staff time. Speaker, schedule, and room updates are generated automatically in the app. The app included the full text of abstracts, lists of authors, and allowed the user to search and sort presentations by theme and type. It also featured My Schedule and My Favorites functions, which allowed participants to plan which sessions to attend in advance.

Searching for names on the app was not truly global. Some of our speakers found that their events did not all show in the search results. If we wanted their names to be searchable with the global search functionality feature we can support it here but it would slow down the app.

Over the past year we have worked to speed up search and provide greater coverage for speakers that are in the author blocks.

Core Apps had all the features and functionality of the similar providers plus additional that others did not. The customer service from start to end was exceptional.

I had no complaints regarding the software or the company. They met all my requirements and were great to work with.

Thank you so much for sharing your feedback. We're glad our team and technology was a 5 star experience!

Core-Apps is easily adjusted to meet the needs of whatever our organization faces and easy to adjust as items come up. That's the one thing I would say works best: ease of use and easy to update/change. Core-Apps support team is responsive and easy to work with.

We are switching to a new sessions management software, so this may be moot (we'll see), but the set-up for categories/tracks isn't that good - too much information. I'd like to see it sleeker/more scaled down so it's simpler for the users.

The CoreApps software is extremely easy to use and the completed apps are great! We have never had any issues in the set-up phase that CoreApps was not quickly able to fix for us with their wonderful customer service. Our conference attendees rave about the app year after year!

Some of the Sponsorship opportunities get a little complex for our sponsors liking. The options available are great, but sponsors often do not want to put in the time to take advantage of them.

Thank you Sharon! We're glad that your event app continues to be well received by your audience!

Very professional looking. Lots of functionality to pick and choose

The back end requires significant investment of time and effort from event organizers.

The end result looks good and it's fairly easy for attendees to use. It's customizable and flexible yet still streamlined. It has banner ads, push notifications, and the ability to add/delete/change buttons.

1. It doesn't handle names with accents well. They don't alphabetize correctly and you can't search for them. 2. There's an issue with sessions that have speakers with order numbers (as opposed to a roundtable where there is no numbering). Whe searching for a speaker, the app will list the speaker's presentation order number (e.g, 1, 2, 3, or 4) first, followed by the presentation title when in...

Using Core Apps for the first time was quite rewarding. In 2017, our agency was on the hunt for a product that would help to facilitate the unique needs of our Teacher Leader Summit; specifically, the ability to push out updates to participants in real-time and the need to filter the plethora of sessions in an efficient manner. The overall functioning of the app was met with rave reviews from participants so we were not hesitant to working with them again for our 2018 Teacher Leader Summit. The customer service and support that was provided to us, especially with some unique, challenging requests, were superb!

The setup to having the volume of session materials uploaded uniquely to function in the app was proven to be quite challenging--that was not necessarily solely on Core Apps; but, it was a process that was painstaking memorable.

Rene, we have further refined the feature you are using to make it easier this year!

We've integrated a number of systems into Core-Apps and all are working great, and it has been a very easy experience to work with the team. So easy, that I was worried we'd have a mess on our hands - but we didn't! Our support team is so quick, easy to talk to, gets things done quickly and are always here for us.

The landing page for the mobile app download prompts was a horrible user experience, however, we asked them to change it. They did it within days and now it looks great.

Glad we could meet your needs!

Ease of use, flexibility, ability to completely customize the product to fit our needs. This team was willing to go the extra mile in customizations. They allowed us to use the product in ways it had never been used.

Reporting could be enhanced by creating additional functions within the product. Reporting seems to be limited, however this is also an area I need to explore more with additional features that will be utilized in upcoming events.

Thank you for the feedback Tara! It is always great to hear about positive experiences with our technology. We are always improving and feedback like this helps us achieve our goals of being the best event technology ecosystem for the trade show and event space.

The software is so easy to use. Anyone can pick it up and instantly be able to find what they are looking for without a lot of learning curve.

It is so easy, show managers have a tendency to put too much on the dashboard thus, making everything harder to locate instead of easier.

Thank you for your feedback Andrea!

The app is easy to use and Core Apps provides good customer support.

Some options are not as obvious: One example is when you create your profile, you don't see yourself listed and our conference attendees think something is wrong until we inform them you will not see yourself in "attendees".

We are working to redesign some of the networking features including profile to make them easier to use

The app is the first place I send attendees and staff for event information. The app holds everything and conveniently displays convention and trade show information in an intuitive manner.

The expense. Each year our committee asks questions about the cost, I do worry that they will ask us to shop around.

Thank you for your response Mary! We look forward to continuing to provide a feature rich event app experience for your attendees!

I appreciate the responsiveness of the team at core-apps in making our mobile app unique to our event. Also, they have worked with us to create specific content that works for our organization's needs. Their help desk is excellent and very quick to reply and very knowledgeable.

There are some very minor issues with non-changeable color choices that are difficult for some older attendees to see clearly.

We have a redesign of the user interface to help with this issue.

It's truly turnkey. I don't have to re-work my data to fit a convoluted template. The customer service we have received has been wonderful.

A feature we removed from the app last year was left on the app this year which caused some confusion for our attendees. It was resolved/removed quickly.

Thank you for the awesome feedback Christi! We think you're top notch too and look forward to continuing to help.!

CoreApps mobile app is cost effective. The sales rep and account reps we are assigned are always professional and available by phone, email or text at anytime, especially during a meeting --- when I need them most!

Obviously, we always want what we get for less money and for our money to go farther. More add-ons for no more cost.

Thank you for your feedback Liz! It's positive and helpful insight like this that helps us plan for future updates.

Our mobile app has a professional look and is full of features our meeting attendees value. The development team had a positive attitude towards our customization requests, and a real interest in seeing us succeed.

Our meeting is not revenue focused, so many of the features related to exhibitors and sponsors are not relevant to us. That being said, the development team was very helpful in removing those elements and making the app feel like it was made for our meeting.

Thank you for your positive feedback Kevin! We prioritize creating event apps that meet the needs of our clients and their attendees.

Functionality of the mobile app and even within that the amount of customization. The single best feature for us was the ability to save schedules and share with friends.

Difficult to import conference data from the planning side. There should be a way to use event ids to upload in batch to the software.

Thank you for your feedback Kellen! It's positive insight like this that help us make decisions on improvements to our platform.

Support staff was great getting everything set up with the mobile app. Easy to use once everything was explained.

Lead retrieval had too many steps for our users and was very confusing. Also, the icons on the main screen of the app were too small and there were too many. They didn't have gamification, which our members like.

We hate to hear the missed opportunity for games. We have gamification. Device leads is a complicated ask for some.

App is very easy to use and intuitive. Users seem to have no trouble navigating.

Admin should have more tools to customize and add data. Data should update more often.

We have a redesign of the user interface to help with just this issue, look for the upgrade soon!

The fact that it can integrate with our web site's custom XML data feeds, so when we make a change online, it automatically changes in the app.

Would like the analytics section to be more detailed...would love to know more demographics of users.

Thank you for the great feedback Stacey! It's feedback like this that helps us continue to improve our products to meet our client's needs.

I appreciate that the software is truly turnkey. Many times in the past, I have had to spend hours working on the data to fit the box of the app provider I was working with. With Core-apps, we make sure the data is complete and accurate and they do the rest.

I wish the audience polling feature was included or less expensive.
