Frequently Asked Questions
In a nutshell, Flock Eventing Platform is the easiest way to organise your event and digitise the way that attendees RSVP and access info about the event. We do this by offering a really user-friendly online Event Management System that allows event organisers to input all the information about their event including date, time, venue, speakers, exhibitors, sponsors, videos, photos, presentations etc. All this information then filters through to a custom branded RSVP page (or Event Website) where Attendees can see all event info, and can RSVP to the event. RSVP’s can also be managed directly from the system as invites, aide memoirs, reminders, confirmations are all sent out directly from the system to attendees. The custom Mobile App is then how the attendees of the events see all the event information and can really engage with the event, speakers and other attendees, it has over 20 event features and professionally represents your business & brand.
The event app replaces all printed material at your event, it contains all the event info at the fingertips of your attendees and can be updated in real-time so you can be sure your attendees have the latest info. The app can be used to communicate by sending push notifications and increasing interactivity amongst your delegates with Questions and Answers, Surveys and Live Polling. All aspects of the event can be housed in the event app including the event agenda/schedule, maps to the venue, the floorplan, photos and videos, speaker profiles, exhibitor profiles, a social network feed (and essentially a private social network for attendees), all the presentations for attendees to download, info and details of event sponsors and more.
The app also provides these features and benefits:
- Attendee convenience
- A paperless event
- Cost savings
- Speaker/exhibitor/sponsor promotional opportunities
- A private social network to boost engagement
- Significant ROI & channels to make additional income through sponsorships
- Real-time feedback, ratings & quick polls
- Thorough analytics & reporting
Our platform is really user friendly and helps event organisers digitise their event. The platform can be used as a DIY solution, or you can choose to have assistance from our team.
The Mobile App works on both Android and iPhone devices, and can be customised to represent your brand – it doesn’t have to have our logo anywhere or be a plain and generic app.
Our team are very serious about ensuring that your event goes smoothly by helping where we can to input information and follow up on the various data needed to populate the event app.
Building the app happens online on the Flock Platform, enter basic information about the event, send us the design artwork and we’ll handle the rest. It usually takes about 7 to 10 days to get it approved on the App Stores, and then it will be available for your attendees to download.
If you would just like an event website and not a Mobile app, this would definitely help with your RSVP’s. You will have access to the event management platform where you can populate all your event info which will filter into the custom branded event website page where your attendees will RSVP and get to see all the event info from the Agenda, Speakers and download important documents.

It all happens right from our Event Management system and really, couldn’t be easier. All Attendees can be uploaded to the platform with their contact details. The invitations can be customised to represent the brand and the event which will include links to Accept or Decline the event. The system then captures exactly who has accepted and declined (and who hasn’t responded), with capabilities to send information out to specifically those people in each group. On registration, invitees can be asked to give us any information you may need, from the usual Dietary requirements, to Job Titles, to places of work – anything you need to ask can be captured right then and there, with downloadable reports available.
Packages start from R3,000-00 per event
