Touchpoint is a differentiator for Oticon. It helps us grow our business because it sets us apart from other companies and allows us to provide an amazing attendee experience."
The Results
Record Attendee Engagement
Oticon dramatically increased attendee engagement with features like gamification and surveys, achieving a 97% in-event app download rate.
Incredible Booth Engagement
Touchpoint fostered increased engagement between attendees, partners and sponsors, resulting in over 3,100 booth check-ins.
The Challenge
Finding the Right Fit for an In-Event App
Oticon was looking for an event app that could support and promote their brand effectively at events, but after testing a number of event app solutions, they found the overall process of building the event app cumbersome and the attendee experience lacking.
The Solution
Working with Certain Touchpoint
Because they were already using Certain Platform for their event registration, Oticon decided to try Certain Touchpoint as their event app. From the start, they were thrilled with the end-to-end experience that Touchpoint was able to offer.
We found Touchpoint so intuitive and easy to use for both attendees & staff. Someone with no experience in Touchpoint was able to build an event in minutes."
The Transformation
A Single, Global Event Management Platform
Oticon saw a dramatic increase in attendee engagement through Touchpoint, reporting a more than 97% download rate for the app and record participation through features like gamification and surveys.
Oticon’s attendees were especially happy with features like:
- Personalized agendas
- Private, in-app messaging
- Push notifications with event updates and scheduling changes— including flight status or ground transportation changes
