Try Walls.io social walls for free

It was a big wall, probably 12 feet tall. I should have had somebody stand next to it for the photo! And it was pretty cool. We set it up right by the registration area. We also had a booth there where participants could redeem the tickets they received for participating in sessions and exchange them for t-shirts, coffee mugs, etc. So it was a place where we got lots of traffic, and people would walk by and see the wall. And then, of course, that would encourage them to post more pictures.

We wanted attendees to feel part of the event before they even arrived—and Walls.io helped us make that happen.

Seeing their posts appear in real-time on the big screens was the biggest motivator. For FHS Saudi Arabia and FHS World, many of our speakers and exhibitors naturally wanted that visibility, so they actively used the hashtag throughout the event.

We loved that Walls.io provided a hybrid solution for connecting both onsite and virtual audiences. I would highlight the direct posting feature as one of Walls.io’s most valuable benefits. It creates a safe and controlled environment for our internal audience while respecting their privacy.

We looked for a platform that could gather all of our social media in one place and expected to find something that we could probably plug into a website. When we found Walls.io, we were impressed by the whole solution. It was dramatically cheaper than doing an own-build solution with an agency, and it was considerably more flexible. The whole procurement process happened in 15 minutes before a telephone call, where we just started to search for these sorts of solutions. Walls.io stood out as a leader. And the reason it’s so good is its flexibility.

Working with big companies means that we are not always able to use social networks during an event, having the possibility to use Walls.io’s Direct Post feature helped us use the social wall without being bound by social networks!
