Concept3D

“We saw the potential of Concept3D’s platform right away, and it was amazing to see our space come to life in a fully interactive 3D map. We know the platform will improve the overall guest and attendee experience, and we’re excited for all the ways that we can use it for both internal and external needs moving forward.”

““[Localist has] helped increase our website traffic a lot just because it is such a good resource for people to come and look for events. It’s definitely one of the most visited sections of our website.””

““To have something custom-built that offered all the things that Localist Events offers wouldn’t have been smart financially. We’ve gone that route before with other things, having them custom built, and there’s so many kinks to work out that it takes you so long to get started. But we knew that Localist Events was already doing it. [We] could transfer the events over and immediately start working on the calendar.””

““[We] add thousands of events every year, and previously didn’t have an easy way for people to submit their own events, so having that has been really really beneficial for us.””

“”Gwinnett is a really suburban destination; we don’t have the mountains, we don’t have the beach. We don’t have any of those geographic things to promote, but we have thousands of events every year, really great, award-winning events. So the events are really one of our big attractors…the events are something that’s always happening. I think it makes us unique.””

““Using Concept3D’s mapping service became integral to how we executed this self-guided tour. The flexibility we have to print the map, embed it on native providence.edu pages, and even integrate Spotify tracks directly within the location descriptions gave us the ability to meet prospective students wherever they are.””

““The ability to create custom views, show specific locations for different audiences, and integrate it into our admissions strategy makes it a much more flexible tool.””

““I love the fact that someone can pull up the map on their phone, see their blue dot, and walk around campus knowing where they are in real time. That’s very different from anything we’ve had before””

““Flat out, we would not be a customer if the platform wasn’t accessible. The legal landscape is quickly catching up, and it’s not a ‘should do’ anymore, it’s a must. Concept3D stood head and shoulders above the other products we evaluated.””

““Partnering with somebody like Concept3D that already has the accessibility built in solves a huge problem for us.””

““It’s just the simple and seamless integration of being on an event, and you scroll down and see the map that you’re used to seeing elsewhere. It’s not jarring. It all looks the same and it just makes sense.””

““During orientation, new students use the map for wayfinding and the calendar for personalized events tied to their residential community. But the impact extends beyond students. Families and alumni also use them for reunions, commencement, and more. The map and event calendar improve attendance, reduce confusion and create a smoother experience.””

““The biggest indicator is the spike in traffic to the campus map during the first week of school. That tells us students are using it exactly as intended. It’s their one-stop shop.””

““I would absolutely recommend Concept3D. I love the systems, I love how they interact with each other… but also the service that comes with it, the support we get from the team, from implementation throughout, they’re always open to talk to us and I think that makes a huge difference.””

““What I really appreciated was knowing how deep your higher ed experience was . We didn’t have to explain certain things like how complicated campus communities can be or why accessibility was important, that was all just understood.””

““Accessibility was the number one and number two reason we did this project. We had a moral, ethical, and legal impetus to provide better digital navigation for all students and visitors.””

““Data is critical for us to understand who our prospective and admitted students are, but it’s also highly protected. The integration with our CRM gives us the insight we need while allowing us to protect that data appropriately.””

“It’s clear our fans appreciate the effort we’ve put into making the stadium more accessible and easier to navigate,”

“Last year, parking was our top complaint category, and this year, I can’t say we’ve had one complaint.”

“We work with a lot of community groups and corporate sponsors, and being able to send them a screenshot of the map with annotations has been a game-changer.”

“Visualizing the ballpark and the game day experience ahead of time eased a lot of anxiety for our visitors. The map does a great job of showing everything from the closest entrances to each parking lot to the concessions nearest to their seat.”

“Anyone going through the tour gets a good understanding of what we’re featuring. Since we’ve done the tours, I’ve had more requests of people actually wanting to visit the sites.”

““You have to be proactive because you never know when you’re going to have a student or faculty member that has an accessibility concern. Having a plan in place makes that process easier.””

“We needed to replace our 2-dimensional, flat, hard to understand and not at all customizable/interactive map system we had been using since it was created. [Concept3D] seems to fill the need precisely. It is editable, custom, and represents the lay of the land so that visitors can easily navigate our campus.”

“We looked at several map options. Concept3D was the only solution that was accessible, which was one of our ‘must-have’ requirements. The map had the features we were looking for, and it met the legal specifications for web accessibility.”
