As a participant’s event schedule comes together, you might want to give them access to the Calendar tab. It’s useful for tracking, and for scheduling ad hoc events.

In this article:

Where is it?

As an Admin, you can access the Calendar display from the Attendee List and Company List:

Participants can log into MeetMax and see the Calendar tab:

When is it useful?

A participant’s Calendar tab contains:

  • Scheduled meetings
  • Presentations they’re presenting
  • Presentations they’ve signed up to attend
  • Activities they’ve signed up to attend
  • Ad hoc events (if your event is using them)

The content is the same as the Your Schedule tab, but the Calendar offers a more visual interface.

  • If your event is using one of the MeetMax mobile apps, the Calendar tab adds convenience. Participants won’t have to switch between the mobile app and their personal calendars.
  • If you want to be able to schedule ad hoc events, like transportation pick-ups, coffee, or conference calls, both you and the participant can do this through the Calendar tab.

What participants see

When an Attendee or Company logs into MeetMax, the Calendar page shows different kinds of events in different colors. Our Support team can help customize these for your event.

  For presentations, MeetMax displays sessions you’re attending in a separate color from sessions you’re presenting, as shown below.

Participants can toggle their Calendar between three views: Day, Week, and List:

  Keep in mind that you can also allow each participant to export their event schedule to their own personal calendar.
