• Onsite capabilities - Do you need badge printing, check-in apps, or hardware rental?
• Security certifications - Look for ISO 27001 certification for enterprise events
• Global support - Is support available in your timezone? Can they provide onsite staff?
• Track record - Has the platform been used for similar events in your industry?
