Zoho's Backstage mobile app ensures that attending an event is no longer just an exercise, but an experience to be remembered. Get event information, respond to speakers in real time, customize agenda, and more, all in a single app. Impersonal events built around scripted touch points and non-interactive presentations don't allow attendees to get the complete event experience. With the Zoho Backstage app, attendees can interact, customize and give feedback right from their mobile devices. Here's why Zoho Backstage is a game changer: • View the entire event website and be informed of any updates and announcements. • Ask questions to the speaker directly from your mobile device and participate in polls. • Pick and choose sessions that interest you to create your own agenda for the event. Add sessions to your phone’s calendar to stay on top of your day. • Snap and upload photos to capture event memories. • Get directions and navigate to the event venue without any hassles. Also avail special discounts on hotels if your Event Organizer has made arrangements.
