[technology taskforce] ARIN meeting app - CrowdCompass by Cvent

[Alfredo Calderon]

Hello to all:

As mentioned during my intervention at ICANN57, ARIN uses CrowdCompass and
it's APP which I found very user-friendly and versatile.

At goo.gl/TZ1QBA another company does a comparison of different apps for
events.  But, my experience with CrowdCompass (http://www.crowdcompass.com/)
was very good. Had it available on my iPhone and iPad and it worked
flawlessly.

A list of its main features is available at -
http://www.crowdcompass.com/app-features/

   - Activity Feed was excellent - Feed is a personalized stream tailored
   to each individual based on the attendee's interactions with the app.
   - Beacons - When an attendee is near a beacon, relevant notifications
   appear on their phone. (worked very well)
   - Personalized Schedule Integration - had all my sessions scheduled with
   detail information on speaker/s, location, etc.
   - Interactive Maps - could see and know exactly where I was heading.
   - Attendee messaging - could chat with other participants within app. I
   was able to chat with other participants and in some cases, even though my
   "mentor" was not near I could send a message and receive the response,
   almost immediately.
   - Social networks and sharing - from within the app I could share photo
   comments, etc. with my social network groups.
   - Hashtag - could use a hashtag and all subscribed could see or read
   content shared.
   - Session materials/presentations - could have access to materials as
   sessions occurred.

I have not been able to use the ICANN app to compare. However, my
experience with CrowdCompass was positive.

I strongly recommend contacting CrowdCompass (
http://www.crowdcompass.com/custom-demo-request.shtml) for a Demo. Also,
contact *Mark Kosters, Chief Technology Officer* at *ARIN* to have an idea
of the project management of implementing the tool for events and any
concerns or pitfalls.
Hope this helps for further consideration.
