### "Tracking Continuing Education"

March 15, 2022

5.0

I like using it more each time I do.

Pros

The convenience is great, although it takes a bit of trial to understand the versatility.

Cons

I understood that the software would track my attendance at each of the sessions I did watch via streaming. I do not know how to retrieve that information. It is needed for reporting to various licensing agencies.

### "My first experience with Whova app"

September 1, 2020

5.0

It was a great experience overall, including the conference as well.

Pros

The first time I opened the app to use it for my attending the METLC was quite confusing, but it was mostly due to me being an inexperienced user. It didn't take me long to start using it as it's intended and to start enjoying it too. It's actually well-structured and easy to handle and find your way around. Some of the most useful features, in my opinion, were the options to directly message other participants and expand your network; the option to start a new thread and to arrange virtual meetings and discussions.

Cons

The drawback that I saw was that you had no way of replying to someone or deleting a post / message. Perhaps for the future! In addition, there were quite a few paths to reaching the same goal, like the chat and discussions related to someone's presentation could be reached through 2 different routes. It might be confusing for some. Also, perhaps you could develop the direct messages for the web app in the future.

### "Virtual Training Venue "

August 30, 2022

4.0

Nice venue to view virtual training on.

Pros

Fairly easy to use to watch virtual training on and to participate in.

Cons

Another app to download on my phone. Also if I wanted to look at the next options it would log me out of the one I was in.

March 21, 2023

5.0

Pros

The Community pages make it easy and fun for attendees to interact with each other before and after the conference.

It would be helpful if attendees could edit posts and events they create.

### "Use of Whova as a participant."

October 17, 2023

5.0

Overall as a participant, it was very helpful and I would highly recommend for any large conference.

Pros

I found Whova very helpful as a participant of a conference. It was nice to have the agenda and meeting information in one spot. I also appreciated having the speaker profiles in the application so I could reference them throughout the presentation.

Cons

It is not an application I have used before so downloading and logging in took some time.

### "Whova app experience"

March 5, 2019

5.0

We have been Whova for several years and it has been a positive experience for our company. It is part of the package and helps us to maintain a professional profile.

Pros

Ability to keep our delegates informed of event schedule, location, venues and networking.

Cons

some people who are not so tech savvy require assistance to get setup and comfortable using, but, that applies to other technology as well not just Whova.

### "Whova App"

January 29, 2020

5.0

Pros

This app is great for company conventions. Love how easy it is to use, and the amount of info that can be shared.

Cons

None works great! One thing that would be cool to add to the app, is a GPS for the venue. Some of the venues we attend are massive and can be challenging to find where exactly your conference is located especially when there are several conferences going on.

### "Who(va)'s that awesome new conference app? "

September 27, 2022

5.0

Pros

Whova was the platform used by Mastery Transcript Consortium at their recent in-person conference. Almost immediately, I liked it. This excitement about the utility and ease of use of this app only built over time. I found myself excited to create my agenda, interact with new acquaintances, post pictures, complete surveys, and even engage in a live Q&A without taking the mic. It was also fun to 'compete' for a spot on the leaderboard, a playful addition to the app that added a little extra dopamine.

Cons

At times the app distracted me from being present in the conference. For example, I may have introduced myself to a speaker in person in the past, whereas now, I simply reached out over the app. Still, it facilitated more interaction overall not less, so I am hopeful I will be able to deepen those connections over time.

### "Enjoyed the app as an exhibitor of a trade show"

February 11, 2020

5.0

It's a step in the right direction. I've never had a solid app that helped me identify attendees. But it still fell a bit short for making this information valuable. I spent hours researching the attendees to determine who may be a viable client or not, and then additional hours reaching out to them, with very limited results. If notifications were encouraged, and more information about attendees was mandatory, or requested, that would be a huge step to make it more efficient.

Pros

The access to information about everyone else that was attending the show who had installed the app. Gave me opportunity to prospect potential customers.

Cons

In many cases, not enough information was available about the attendees. It would be advantageous if the attendee would optionally provide a link to their website, their email address, their phone number. Also, the choice to implement notifications (or not) limited the ability for most to see that they had messages sent to them. I had a very low percentage response to messages sent in the app. Also, when I received a message, it was very hard to identify that I received one, and to dig it out.

October 12, 2022

5.0

Connecting with others

Pros

Sessions, Speaker Profiles, Chat mode, follow ups, Q&A

Cons

This is the best mobile event app I've used. Plenty of features and ways to keep track of sessions, connect with attendees, and stay current.

### "Fun, Interactive App"

February 26, 2019

5.0

It has been a great tool to use for events. People seem to be more engaged and interactive than other apps I have used. The points and leaderboard need to be reconsidered as people really take it to the extreme of competitiveness.

Pros

Introductions to other people who are attending the event and sharing knowledge of event specific information.

Cons

I don’t necessarily like the leader board. Some people take it to the ultimate extreme and make it unpleasant to use the app because they have to win a virtual trophy at all costs. It really takes the fun out of using the app.
