VenueWize is a web and mobile-based application created for event organizers.[1] It lets event organizers collaborate on events, access real-time guest information during their events (via iPhone and iPad apps), track guest profitability and stay green.[2]
The company started out by focusing on guest list creation and management by letting team members collaborate on lists which are then accessed by door managers using an iPhone.[3] Since then, they ran an international pilot test in an attempt to best understand event organizers needs when it comes to metrics, and launched on December 1, 2011 with a focus on event analytics.[4] The service now emphasizes automatic capturing of metrics and offers analytics to break down the successes and failures of an event.[5]
VenueWize has been criticized for providing some features similar to the heavily used Eventbrite and Eventbee.[4]
The company was awarded 2nd place at Simon Fraser University's 2011 Entrepreneur of the Year.[6]
