FAQ

Awards & recognition software: frequently asked questions

What is awards and recognition event software?

Awards and recognition event software helps you run the full awards program — from collecting nominations to hosting the ceremony. Eventify combines nomination forms, registration and ticketing, seating and check-in, live voting, streaming, engagement and analytics in one platform for in-person, virtual and hybrid awards.

Can Eventify collect and manage award nominations?

Yes. Open a branded call for nominations with custom entry forms, categories, file uploads and deadlines. Every submission is organized in one dashboard, with automated confirmations and reminders, so you’re ready to shortlist without juggling spreadsheets.

Can attendees vote for winners live?

Yes. Run audience-choice voting and live polls during the ceremony, so the room and remote guests can help pick winners in real time and see results on the branded stage.

Can we run the ceremony in person, virtually or hybrid?

Eventify supports in-person, virtual and hybrid awards nights. Onsite you get ticketing, seating, badges and check-in; virtually you get a branded live stage with streaming — and hybrid brings both audiences into one shared celebration.

How do we handle tickets, tables and seating?

Sell tickets or full tables, manage RSVPs, assign seating and check guests in with a QR scan. Name badges and table assignments keep a large gala organized and moving.

Can we live-stream the awards ceremony?

Yes. Stream the ceremony on a branded stage with speaker, sponsor and category spotlights, so virtual and hybrid guests experience the reveals live — with recordings and highlight moments available afterwards.

How does Eventify keep the audience engaged during the show?

Live polls, voting, reactions, shout-outs and gamification keep guests involved throughout the ceremony, driving up to 70% higher engagement and far more interaction than a broadcast-only stream.

Can sponsors be featured in the ceremony?

Yes. Showcase sponsors with branded stages, logos, dedicated spotlights and recognition throughout the event site, app and live show — giving partners real visibility.

What kinds of awards events is Eventify used for?

Corporate and employee awards, industry and association awards, media and publication awards, and community or nonprofit recognition — from intimate team ceremonies to sector-wide galas with thousands of guests.

Is Eventify secure and enterprise-ready?

Eventify follows enterprise security and privacy practices including ISO 27001 and GDPR compliance, with SSO support, and scales from a single ceremony to global awards programs across regions.
