What Makes a Virtual User Conference Successful?

What: ZapConnect - Zapier's Annual Virtual User Conference

Who: 8,000+ Zapier users

When: Thursday, Sept 28

Where: Online at zapconnect.com

Ticket Price: Free!

What went well:

• We well surpassed our attendee targets 📈

• Broadly speaking, there were no major streaming issues, attendee login issues, or major tech concerns that could impact the user experience.

• We're seeing higher than expected on demand traction, and received positive feedback on the content this year. 👏

• The production value for our videos has dramatically improved YOY, with this year being the best yet.

For next year:

• Live content: we had multiple redundancies in place in case of an outage, speaker not showing up, etc. Thankfully, we didn't have to use most of it! We did have 1 live stream buffer a bit right at the end of their session and were able to quickly load up the backup video to ensure the on demand version was crisp. We put a lot of effort into our contingency plans, and I'll do it all over again next year!

• Networking: We partnered with our event tech provider to create a brand new, user-generated networking feature in the form of "lounge discussions." This was a late add with little time to fine tune or promote it. Next year, with more runway, I hope we can take learnings from this year on how our attendees want to connect, enhance the tech offering and build stronger messaging that nurture folks towards using these more effectively.

• Support: the events team is currently fielding most week-of attendee questions. Thankfully, we've made logging in fairly intuitive; however, our process no longer fits our size. We have to do some digging into better systems and resourcing to help keep our team focused on the rest of the event and not support issues.
