Eliminated 8-Hour Manual Processes and Doubled In-Person Attendance with OkWhen

Our 2025 conference was the first time that we used OKWEN for AV services, and that whole process from pricing to on-site, was and Great experience overall and we pretty much at the end of that conference said copy paste for next year. We want the same team. We love everybody. I'm Jessica Painter and I work with the Arizona Association for Behavior Analysis as the executive director. And we have used OK1 for our annual conferences as well CEU webinars throughout the year. been planning events and conferences for about nine years now. Before working with OK1, I had a lot of difficulties with hybrid events, specifically and trying to make the quality of the video and recordings clear, Having it be accessible to attendees and integrate with CEUs as well as our conference app. The biggest headache that I had before working with OK When was really the integration with CEOs and a conference app. We were using two separate platforms, which made it difficult for attendees and us, as far as having to set up things twice. Okay, when services we use are the mobile app, ⁓ streaming and AV services. Anytime I've brought something to Matt or Chris or Sarah, they've always been super quick to respond and able to make adjustments within the platform itself and its capabilities. usually, if it does happen with other platforms I've worked with, it's a lot slower of a process, whereas they've always able to make those adjustments before my event takes place. All of the feedback we've received about OK1 has been amazing, Everybody's been so friendly, so quick to respond. It's especially nice knowing that they understand the role that my team and I play and know that We also plan other events and have other clients that we work with. support team is very responsive Really helpful with everything, which is also something I love, that I'm not getting bothered for CEU certificates constantly. That's maybe one of my favorite things. The mobile app is very self-explanatory and easy to make edits. I like being able to see those in real time, see how it looks on my phone. before it's published to attendees. And being able to do our call for papers directly through the app and then have it convert onto the agenda was a huge time saver on our part, not having to manually input all of the sessions OK, when has saved us a lot of time ⁓ between building out the app as well as a significant amount of time with the CEU certificate distribution that used to be probably eight or so hour process that is now completely eliminated. Since working with OK1, attendee count has increased quite a Before we started, we would get about 30 or 40 virtual. And now this past year, we're over 100 virtual. And then our in-person count went from about 350 to expecting over 600 for this year. The production quality that OK1 has provided for us has been outstanding. They've been able elevate what the stage looks like very reasonably priced compared to working directly with the Hotel A.V. companies. they have great lighting that goes with our theme and everything just looks really clean and nice and something that we weren't able to do before. I would recommend OK1 to anybody who needs help with AV. app If someone is on the fence about working with OK1, I would recommend they just do it. can speak directly with Matt or Chris which is so nice just to be able to have that direct line of communication just their willingness to make the time They've always been able Squeeze me in for various questions or last-minute things that I'm not sure of. So I think it is definitely worth it from that level of like hands-on experience with them.
