Expert Post: Empowering Event Organizers with Platform-Agnostic Integration Services

Navigating the complex landscape of event technology requires seamless integration of diverse platforms. At fielddrive, we understand the critical nature of this requirement, and that's why we developed our integration services to be not only reliable but also agnostic to the registration platforms our clients choose. fielddrive’s integration services enable organizers to choose their preferred platform — from STOVA and IDloom to Cvent, Swoogo, and Bizzabo — without having to worry about compatibility issues.

Today, as the Lead Product Manager at fielddrive, I'm excited to talk about how our custom integration services empower event organizers to select their own tool kit without worrying about compatibility and smooth data flow.

So, let's dive in!     

The Challenge of Integration in Event Management

One of the most significant challenges event organizers face is integrating multiple systems, such as registration platforms and badging systems, into a cohesive workflow. The traditional approach often involves tedious processes like exporting and importing data, which not only increases the risk of errors but also consumes valuable time.

fielddrive addresses these challenges head-on with our platform-agnostic integration services that ensure real-time, two-way data synchronization. We provide seamless data flow if your attendee data comes from a CRM like HubSpot or a dedicated event registration platform like Eventbrite.

Key Features of fielddrive Integration Services

1. Real-Time Data Synchronization: fielddrive solutions are designed for live data updates, ensuring that changes in registration platforms are immediately reflected in badging and attendance systems. This dynamic sync keeps all systems up-to-date, providing organizers with the latest information at their fingertips.

2. Customizable Integration Options: Every event is different and therefore has different needs. That's why fielddrive offers tailored integration services that can adapt to any third-party platform, supporting multiple custom fields relevant to your event’s specific requirements.

3. Comprehensive End-to-End Data Management: From initial registration to post-event analytics, our services handle all aspects of data flow, ensuring that every piece of information is accurately captured and securely processed.

4. Proprietary Platform Integration: fielddrive also offers seamless and reliable integration with proprietary and custom-built platforms, making our solutions versatile for any event setup and tech stack.

5. Walk-In Registration Support: With the help of our real-time data syncing capabilities, last-minute walk-in registrations can be smoothly incorporated, ensuring no attendee goes unrecorded and all badges are promptly issued.

Highlight: fielddrive X HubSpot Integration

A prime example of our integration capability is with HubSpot, a popular CRM platform preferred by many event organizers, including many of our own clients. Our integration with HubSpot creates a two-way data tunnel for our clients that not only pulls attendee data from HubSpot for badge printing but also pushes back attendance data to the platform. This allows our clients to better qualify their leads and effectively tailor their post-event engagement strategies.

Why Choose fielddrive?

But why stop there? Why not take it a step further? fielddrive’s robust integration services make it possible for us to pull the data from these custom fields and print it on attendee badges, to make them feel a little more tailored and improve networking on the show floor.
