Works pretty well as a comprehensive conference guide, but not without some glaring shortcomings. The ability to schedule is great, but only reserved sessions can be added to the attendee schedule. Standby sessions cannot be added to the schedule, which means users have to constantly look up which sessions they want to wait in line to attend. Furthermore, sessions attended after standing in line on wait list don't appear in the user schedule, so there doesn't appear to be a way to provide feedback to speakers. Schedule time and location color is light gray on a white background? Really? I nearly went blind trying to read when and where sessions were happening.

The app works okay as a schedule organizer. It would be much easier to use though if it showed columns by hours so you could see where you were double booked instead of list view. The evaluations section is terrible. It doesn't fit the screen and I have to hit the button 20 times to get it to submit. Also, there should be different buttons for favoriting a session vs. actually registering and saving a seat. I know a lot of people were frustrated with the inconsistency.

Great app! The only thing I'd like added is an alert for when I'm in proximity to one of Favorites. There are far too many attendees to keep track of one's I want to reconnect with than just starring them. Similar to dating apps, an alert (or better, a map) would help make sure I don't miss an opportunity for growing and maturing my network.

Does not allow tracking multiple sessions in a time slot. Does not allow scheduling sessions that are full to help visualize your day. The latter is necessary as many sessions are full, but we all know there will be no shows and queuing for rest of us. Looks like it's my normal calendar for this conference.

First, not sure why this app was released so late i.e. just 17 days before the conference. Second, any session registration is taking quite a long transactional time despite of strong Wi-Fi. Seems like a buggy version! Come on Tableau, we know you can do better than this.

Does NOT play well if any of last year's data is floating around on your phone. Users must manually find and wipe any remnants of TC17 before it will function correctly. After that, it is smooth sailing.
