Non-profit Event Platform of Choice
What do you like best?
At the beginning of our for an event platform, we reviewed countless products, and decided to use Sched! We have been using the platform for almost 2 years and love the new integrations their team continually develops. It is a user-friendly platform to schedule events, communicate with attendees, collect feedback, and showcase events. As a non-profit, we were thrilled to see they offered an affordable discount, as well!
What do you dislike?
Unfortunately, Sched does not integrate with Hubspot or Submittable at this time. It's also having issues with its new Zoom plug-in. It worked great for a couple of weeks and now doesn't work at all - there's a good chance that's a zoom problem though. Also, customer service, while friendly, has been a little slow to answer and about 80% of the time doesn't offer to help fix the issue.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Integration with Hubspot and Submittable. Plus, fixing the Zoom plugin issue.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
Leveraging the Sched platform allows our attendees to RSVP, create their custom schedules, and receive automated reminders. Presenters also have the ability to input their presentations and communicate with their session's attendees. (Talk about a time saver!) From an event planners' perspective, it's worth its weight in GOLD. We also LOVE their easy display, print, and attendee check in-app!
