We moved to Evessio after managing our awards process manually for a number of years. The difference has been substantial - even with the time needed to set up the sites and categories, we've gained so much back and it's so helpful to have everything in one place, from judges and the judging process to entries, shortlists, agendas, speakers and tickets. They have clearly thought hard about all sorts of use cases, so I'm confident the platform will continue to suit us as our needs grow and evolve. The tech support team are really responsive (and patient!) and the training documents are pretty comprehensive, as was the initial training itself. Overall I'm really impressed with their offering, and a number of our judges and entrants have commented how much smoother the process has been.

The system is intuitive to use, both as an admin in the back end, and as a customer in the front end. The team at Evessio are consistently focused on developing and evolving their existing product and adding new features, they respond quickly to feedback, and are a great partner in developing solutions to any challnges or requests. We rarely encounter issues with the system and when we do they are dealt with efficiently.

Signing up to Evessio has been a game changer for us. We run multiple awards events and had been using an archaic platform to accept entries and had relied on spreadsheets and a lot of manual labour to pull together information for judges. The results were instant we saw an increase in entries, in no small part down to people being able to amend their entries as they go and also us being able to see who was part way through the process and us then being able to send reminders to complete entries. This increase in entries resulted in longer shortlists and more ticket sales revenues. But the biggest bonus benefit was efficiency. It is now so easy to compile info for judges as it’s already in the system in an easy to access format. This meant all I had to do was provide judges access to the platform and the entries were there ready for judging. The team at evessio are the reason we’ve expanded our partnership with them. They are a joy to deal with, know what we want achieve and are so prompt in delivering tasks or answering questions. I would strongly recommend Evessio to anyone who is running an Awards event to use their platform.
