Clowder Platform Updates: Live Events 3.0 & Enhanced Engagement Tools

We’re excited to introduce our latest platform updates — led by Live Events 3.0, a major evolution in how events are built, managed, and experienced in Clowder.

This release focuses on flexibility, clarity, and control. From modular event layouts to smarter agendas, stronger meeting workflows, and cleaner configuration and reporting tools, these updates help teams design engagement experiences that align with real goals- using less workarounds.

Many of these enhancements were shaped directly by client feedback and real-world usage patterns, ensuring they solve the challenges teams face every day.


Bring member engagement into the modern era with Clowder’s mobile app. Schedule a Demo.

 

Live Events 3.0 — Flexible, Modular Event Experiences

Live Events 3.0 replaces rigid layouts with a fully modular event experience that adapts to different formats, audiences, and objectives.

Events are built using three configurable sections: Top Section (event image, description, key information), Body Section (agenda, speakers, exhibitors, attendees, social feed, surveys, Q&A, 1:1 meetings – set as tiles), and the Bottom Section (DBC, Event Ratings, post-event actions).

 Why it matters:  Live Events 3.0 allows you to design each event intentionally — whether highlighting speakers, driving meetings, showcasing exhibitors, or collecting feedback.

 Challenge addressed:  Fixed layouts previously forced organizers to adapt strategy to the platform. Live Events 3.0 flips that model.


Agenda & Session Enhancements — Smarter Discovery, Better Engagement

New capabilities include a horizontal date-picker for multi-day agendas, multi-select speaker filters, configurable Join Streaming buttons, session-level ad placement, and improved session restrictions.

 Why it matters:  Attendees find relevant sessions faster, while organizers gain better control over promotion, access, and sponsorship visibility.

 Challenge addressed:  Dense agendas and limited filtering reduced discoverability and engagement.

 

1:1 Meetings — A Smoother, More Reliable Experience

Improvements include editable meetings with notifications, smarter push reminders, improved search behavior, one-tap navigation from notifications, and better exports with timezone handling.

 Why it matters:  Better meetings drive stronger connections and higher participation.

 Challenge addressed:  Prior usability gaps caused missed meetings and support friction.

 

Configuration, Branding & Reporting — Cleaner Control and Better Insights


Updates include UGC controls, exclude-by-group menu logic, expanded exports, CSV + QR options, improved data warehouse connectivity, and research of push notification tracking.

 Why it matters:  Admins spend less time managing configurations and gain stronger reporting for leadership and sponsors.

 Challenge addressed:  Manual configuration and inconsistent reporting slowed teams down.


Client-Driven Improvements — Small Changes, Big Impact

 

Enhancements include resource module upgrades, improved booth wallet exports, session registration visibility for check-in/out, and improved deep link and URL title handling.

These refinements remove everyday friction and improve admin confidence.
