Tracking Customer Registration/Attendance at Offline Events
My company does a lot of client events - happy hours, parties, VIP trips, tradeshows, etc. We are looking into ways to manage event registration and check-in so that prospect/customer engagement at these events is automatically pushed into our CRM (Sugar).
Act-On can handle the registration piece using forms, but it lacks a mobile app for handling event check-ins (and there's no out-of-the-box connector with one, as far as I know). We've started looking into third-party solutions (https://splashthat.com/, for example), but this will require us to build an API connection between the event application and Sugar--I'm not aware of an application that connects to Sugar out of the box. While we're open to this, it feels like a significant investment in an application that has a lot of overlapping functionality with Act-On. Ideally, I would rather invest in a solution that supplements or enhances our existing processes (which generally work fine for us).
Curious to hear how other businesses have addressed this and if you can provide any suggestions. Thanks!

Hi Jacquelyn,
Have you tried using a Web-to-lead form in Sugar, that way you can have all your leads/customers registration directly in Sugar and then import a new list to Act-On if you need to. You can find more information about it on the link below.

I know that it not might be exactly what you are looking for, but it might be helpful.
Best regards
