RefTech to Launch Mobile App

RefTech will be launching the EventReference mobile app at The Meetings Show 2017.
The app is part of the EventReference by RefTech cloud based event management platform that is used to handle the diary system and registration for the show and comes with a host of features and benefits:
  • Fast, simple and easy to use.
  • Very lightweight – taking up very little of a phone’s resources.
  • Hosted buyers and exhibitors can use the app to access their diaries.
  • Information is available off line – even without Wi-Fi.
  • Check seminar sessions – filter by speaker name, track or location.
  • Search for speakers and see their biogs and sessions.
  • Easy to read floorplan to better show navigation.
Simon Clayton, chief ideas officer, RefTech said: “I’ve been very critical of event apps in the past because so many of them are simply not fit for purpose; events are short so an event app has to be very quick to grasp and simple to use but so many of them are slow, clunky and hard to navigate.
 “We thought it was time to create something very different. The EventReference app is simple to use but works – it gives you all the information you need whilst at an event in a straightforward format. EventReference is a really powerful event management tool – it’s simple enough for a breakfast meeting, but powerful enough for The Meetings Show.”
 Steve Knight, event director, The Meetings Show said: “The EventReference app gives attendees all of the essential Show information in one easy to use place. It is part of the event management system that we already use, so it connects seamlessly with the hosted buyer and exhibitor diaries.”
