Yapp Reviews

I have been using YAPP for over 2 years for our global conferences - to get people to engage, get excited, and as a way of reducing printed paper agendas and other print materials. I love the functionality, and how easy it is to upload and use - I have had to test out another event app and that was very difficult to use. I especially love that I can upload a simple CSV file with participant names and that comes up so easily. I really do enjoy working with the tool - and being able to upload files so easily!

The cost - sometimes I find it high. The only other thing I would say is the way apps are archived so you can't see some from the previous year.

Easy to add information and customize to our needs. Easy to distribute to attendees. Cost is very competitive.

Some other conference apps seem to have more features (but also cost a fair amount more).

Did not need to knowncoding. Drag and drop is really easy. They have lots of usable templates.

Updating on mobile devices not as easy as with laptop for some pages.

YAPP features an easy and intuitive user interface for creating a professional-looking mobile app which has TONS of functionality. I have been using the service for years, and have built multiple conference apps with it, all for public education, curriculum, instruction and leadership. If you look around at conferences, just about everyone will have their faces buried in their phones, tablets or laptops....

Entering the conference session data can be tedious, and there is really no way around this. However, if you use a spreadsheet to build your initial conference schedule layout, session description, location, and other pertinent data-- you can then use that spreadsheet to import your sessions with direct mapping. This saves you a big step when it comes to conference design, but it only works if you begin with the end product in mind and make that spreadsheet from the origins of the conference planning stages.

We have used the app for meetings/conventions to have all information readily available. It is easy to get a change out to all users, and we even used it for a fun scavenger hunt!

It can be slow to load at times, and some experience crashing issues, but it has not been an across the board issue.

Hi Diane, Thank you for your review and sharing your feedback with us. We are always looking to improve our product and provide a great customer experience so we greatly appreciate your thoughts. We will continue to work through the load times and crashing issues and welcome any future feedback that you have. Genuinely, Esther ------ Esther Lopez Head of Growth & Customer Operations www.yapp.us

We have used your application for the past three years with much success. Your application allows us to structure the work of our Conferences, which are attended by over 200 people from across the FSU. It allows us to interact with the participants through the schedule, sharing experiences and photos from the events. Thank you so much for such a high-quality and professional development, and convenient tool for our work

There is nothing at this point, except that perhaps we do not need the application for the entire year and we wish there was a cheaper per- conference option

Very user friendly. Lots of features to create a very robust event app. Technical support is fantastic. Quick response and very helpful. I like that I'm given links to help topics and then asked if I need to chat with someone. I like the uploading feature from CSV file so I don't have to manually enter dozens of people individually.

So far the only feature I would like to see would be a survey option. I'd love to be able to create a multi question survey that would be part of the app so I could use the Yapp analytics to view results. I have been able to link to Survey Monkey and Google survey so I still have everything in one place.

This app is easy to use, intuitive, able to publish and make changes immediately without having to use a 3rd party/CS agent. I have used apps that are more expensive but have so many limitations on it that I always come back to Yapp. I can find work arounds for almost anything that i need. Additionally, my end users love using it - they love uploading photos and chatting with each other.

Ease of use. Hands down, it allowed non techies to actually create a mobile app. It's easier than drag and drop type of templates and the fact that it's all boxed in and within a certain templated frame makes it easy. There's no design / html or any knowledge to be had if you want to build an app. Some of our people are in the UK and they were still able to hear back from support fairly early their time. Support felt like it was humans doing it not just a ticket system.

Our windows phone employees had to access the app on a computer. We only had 2 people with Windows Phones.

I researched several apps before choosing YAPP. This would be our organization's first time using an app for our annual conference. It took me less than a few days to become familiar with the layout of the app. It was very helpful to see other samples of conference apps. Staff is quick to response and even response after 6PM.

For the price, there are none. I would like to see the banner ad function added. I would like to be able to have the option to use the preset features or create your own.

The app was so easy to use and the ability to have a number of apps running at once was a great help

Inviting people to use the app is not the easiest, some people struggled to download and get set up.

I've used a few other systems for my company conference but Yapp is our favorite by far. It does what we need it to with out fail. The customer support is fantastic and what's really great is that they're honest. If they don't have something, they'll say it. I asked about purchasing another app and they said, no you don't have to purchase another one, you can upgrade your current plan and save money. Best, though is our event attendees appreciated the ease of use of the app.

We haven't come across any problems yet.

So easy to use, design and implement. The staff loves to post pics and use the social feed, check the agenda and have everything they need to know on the app.

Would like to merge or duplicate the apps but I asked for that function and then they were just able to do it for me, great people!

Very easy to use, it has all the features I need for my app. Customer support is amazing! From the moment I started setting up my app, I had all that I needed handy and someone from Yapp offered to help all the time. I am extremely satisfied with this product!

No cons were added to this review

We needed an app for an upcoming conference. Yapp provides an affordable resource that meets all of our needs as an organization.

Would love to be able to have people register for the event through the app. Also, would love the ability to schedule push notifications. Otherwise, no complaints!

While the cost can seem high, the runoff impact of this program is higher. This program helps maximize conference engagement.

For occasional users, the subscription price may be too high. You have to really use the program to maximize it's benefit.

This was an easy app to use. We were able to quickly develop an app for our congregation and Yapp was perfect.

Not much to complain about. It is limited in what the app does but for a basic quick design this is what you should use.

Has all basic features

Branding options are generic and would benefit from being applied by page

The app is very easy to use. Not a lot of bells and whistles, but it gets the job done!

There doesn't seem to be a lot of customization. I wish I had more options

Full disclosure! I am NOT a techy! I really can't believe how easy YAPP makes it for the novice to build your own application.

In my case, I am only using the app during a conference, 3 days out of the year. I wish the subscription was for 2 years, or the price was a bit lower for 1 year. THAT BEING SAID, it can eliminate your print costs for a fraction of the cost.

This app is so easy to update from a staff standpoint and extremely easy to use and understand from a user standpoint! Plus their customer service is wonderful.

I love this software because of it's exceptional service, quality of finished products and productivity.
