Bizzabo Wins SIIA CODiE Award for Best Event Management Solution

Bizzabo has just won the 2018 SIIA CODiE Award for Best Event Management Solution, and we couldn't be more thrilled! Here’s the full story.

Once a year, members of The Software & Information Industry Association (SIIA) meet in San Francisco to announce the winners of the CODiE Awards—the software industry’s only peer-reviewed awards program.

The first-round of review for the awards is conducted by software and business technology experts with considerable industry expertise, including members of the industry, analysts, media, bloggers, bankers and investors.

The scores from the expert judge review determine the finalists, which are then researched and voted on by SIIA members. Next, the scores from both rounds are tabulated to select the winners.

This year, for the first time ever, Bizzabo has been named the Best Event Management Software Solution.

Bizzabo - SIIA CODiE Best Event Management Solution 2018

We are extremely humbled that SIIA’s members have voted for Bizzabo as one of the most innovative businesses technology products across the country, and around the world

Eran Ben-Shushan, our Co-founder and CEO, had this to say about the milestone:

“It is an honor to be recognized with a SIIA CODiE Award for our work to innovate the professional events industry, enabling marketers and attendees with valuable in-person experiences that achieve key business outcomes. This award further validates the accolades we receive from our global customers, and is attributed to the dedication of our entire team to ensure best in class software and customer success. Executing successful events is becoming increasingly complex and multi-faceted, and we are proud that our modern cloud-based software is making it dramatically easier to run, measure, and optimize events.”

Since launching in 2012, Bizzabo has enabled thousands of events worldwide to run seamlessly—and we have had the honor of receiving numerous accolades in the process. This includes receiving the “Oscar’s of Event Technology” for three years in a row, Gartner’s Category Leader in 2017, the top 10 position in the SaaS 1000 and a position on Mogul’s list of the Top 1,000 Places to Work for Millennial Women.

Those of you are familiar with the Bizzabo’s event success platform know that we offer marketers the means to design rewarding in-person experiences through a streamlined set of tools for event marketing, analytics, automation and personalization. These critical features enable organizations to orchestrate, measure, and—above all—improve their events.

You may also know that we are dedicated to people first. Our Customer Success team is not there to just "support" our customers' events—they're there to help our customers run more successful and impactful events. Meanwhile, our customers contribute meaningful feedback this is—more often than not—added to the product roadmap.

While we have put in a lot of hard work to our platform and our service, it means a lot to us to be singled-out by SIIA’s prestigious membership for excellence in event management.

In the words of Ken Wasch, President of SIIA:

“The 2018 CODiE Award winners are the most innovative, high-impact products in the market. We are happy to recognize these products and the power they have to transform the future of how we do business.”

We would just like to say thank you to the SIIA for this extraordinary opportunity.

Thank you to all of our Bizzaboers for working hard to achieve this milestone.

Thank you to the families of all of our Bizzaboers for their continued support.

And—most importantly—thank you to our many customers for helping us build the best product out there.
