"Great event management software - lots of options!"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Localist?

Localist is a very easy service that we use to create, update and a manage events. We have used other services in the past, but I love the look and feel of the localist dashboard, as well as the look and feel from the user's end. I like that it can be customized for each customer.

What do you dislike about Localist?

I really don't have any dislikes --I think it's a very easy to use software that allows other folks to send in content, as well. The only thing I would improve, if anything, is to add a feature so that any size photo can be accepted when adding an event. Our standard 1920 x 1080 is too large, so we have to find unique ways to get around it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Localist solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are using Localist for a couple of different functions. First and foremost, it serves as a calendar of events on our university website, which is great, because other people can submit entries, as well. That is helpful because it offers that submission feature, but nothing is posted until approved by one of the people who are labeled as administrators on our end. The other great feature it is helping with is event management for a large-scale community service event we are planning. We have task sign ups and are allowing users to choose their own time frame and task, which takes away some of the work for the organizers on the back end. That's a plus!
