Omnipress has forged a new partnership with RD Mobile’s Engagefully EVENTS, an industry-leading mobile event app used by some of the most well-respected conferences. To bring more order to agendas, announcements, and attendee engagement, check out how mobile event app works.

For over 45 years, Omnipress has helped organizations source, manage, and publish conference session content. As technology evolves and attendee preferences change, we are always looking to improve our portfolio of services. If the work extends into adjacent programs, our digital event and publication solutions can help manage digital content delivery and reader access more clearly.

To provide even better event engagement for attendees and sponsors, Omnipress is now an authorized provider of Engagefully EVENTS by RD Mobile, one of the industry’s leading mobile event apps. For stakeholders who need more context, learning what to know about how to select a mobile event app for your conference can clarify what matters most in agendas, announcements, and attendee engagement.

A Perfect Pairing: CATALYST Abstract Management System + Engagefully EVENTS

Through our CATALYST® abstract management system, Omnipress already provides an easy way for meeting planners to source, select, and schedule conference session content, including abstracts, papers, posters, and presentations. The Engagefully EVENTS mobile app pairs perfectly with CATALYST, providing an even better mobile user experience.

As Omnipress’ Director of Market Development, Dan Loomis explains, “CATALYST has historically supported some of the most complex conferences featuring multiple session types, tracks, and symposia. But not all mobile event apps have the data structure in place to support multi-level session content in a way that is user-friendly. Engagefully EVENTS absolutely understands the needs of complex conferences—particularly scientific, medical, and technological events.”

Mobile App Features That Increase the Value of an Event

Beyond the data structure, the Engagefully EVENTS mobile app includes a robust portfolio of features that increase engagement for attendees, speakers, and sponsors, including:

  • Custom itinerary building
  • Session Q&A
  • Notetaking
  • Discussion Groups
  • Gamification
  • Sponsor Spotlights
  • Exhibit Floor Map

“We were extremely impressed with the scope of this app today, and RD Mobile’s commitment to future development,” states Baldridge. “Through this partnership, we have the ability to continue to add engagement opportunities for our customers.”

Full-Service Delivery of a Full-Featured Mobile App

Another reason Omnipress chose RD Mobile’s Engagefully EVENTS app, according to Omnipress’ General Manager Jonny Popp, is that “our standards for product and service delivery are perfectly aligned.” The Engagefully EVENTS app provides an outstanding user experience that garners rave reviews from event attendees, sponsors, and organizers. Meanwhile, adds Popp, “Omnipress is known for its outstanding customer experience.” Every customer is assigned a dedicated project manager who handles full app setup and support, so customers have one less thing on their to-do list.

“We know our customers are stretched thin now more than ever,” notes Baldridge. “We want to continue to make it as easy as possible for meeting planners to manage their conference content from collection through distribution.” The addition of Engagefully EVENTS to the Omnipress products and services portfolio makes it even easier to deliver on this promise.
