Every event planner knows how tricky it can be to collect meaningful feedback from attendees. Traditional post-event surveys often get low response rates and rushed, vague answers (if attendees fill them out at all). 

Sched’s built-in attendee feedback tool changes all that. Here’s how it helps you collect feedback while it’s still fresh, and turn it into better events, every time.

At a Glance: Event Feedback Collection Made Simple

Collecting feedback doesn’t have to mean chasing survey links or piecing together responses.

✅ Prompt attendees automatically with personalized emails and session reminders

Capture Real-Time Feedback That Improves Future Events

Gathering attendee feedback after an event shouldn’t feel like sending a survey into the void. 

Sched makes it easy to collect feedback in real time, while the experience is still fresh in your attendees’ minds.

Prompt Attendees Automatically

Instead of sending a generic survey days later, Sched automatically sends attendees a personalized email at the end of each day. It includes their personalized session schedule and a direct link to rate and comment on the sessions they attended.

  • Surveys open 5 minutes before each session begins
  • Feedback stays open for 5 days after the event ends
  • No need to chase attendees or manage separate survey tools

And if you don’t want to send multiple reminders? You can toggle them off anytime. 

Capture Valuable Insights To Deliver More Impactful Events

Sched’s built-in feedback feature allows you to collect:

  • Session ratings (1–5 stars or custom scales)
  • Written comments and suggestions
  • Sentiment trends over time

You can filter responses by session, speaker, topic, or attendee, and export the data in XLS format to share with your leadership team. 

You’ll also be able to view average session ratings right in your control panel for quick at-a-glance insights.

Customize and Extend Your Feedback Process

Already have your questions laid out on Google Forms or Typeform? Sched makes it easy to embed a custom feedback form directly into the session page. You still get all the data you need without disrupting the attendee experience.

You can also enable or disable feedback for individual sessions, and personalize the leading text to guide what kind of feedback you’re looking for.

An Event Feedback Tool That Works for Everyone: Attendees, Speakers & Organizers

Sched removes the friction that usually comes with collecting event feedback, so it is easier for everyone to participate and respond promptly.

For Attendees:

With Sched, attendees don’t have to dig through emails or navigate a separate form. Everything is embedded in the platform they already used to build their event schedule. The friction is gone and feedback flows in.

For Speakers:

When enabled by the event organizer, speakers can view attendee feedback directly from their speaker tools. That transparency helps them reflect, grow, and continue engaging with their attendees. 

For Event Organizers:

Sched helps you collect feedback at the right time while the experience is still fresh. No more waiting, guessing, or manually following up. You can customize feedback prompts, send reminders, and keep surveys focused and actionable. Best of all, Sched’s built-in data reporting tool lets you analyze and export attendee insights by session, speaker, or topic, and share the results with your team.

Use Attendee Feedback to Prove ROI and Plan Better Events

Feedback isn’t just about fixing what didn’t work. It’s about recognizing what did, so you can do more of it, refine what didn’t land, and demonstrate the value of your event with actual data.

Sched’s event feedback tool gives you real-time insight into what resonated most with your attendees. You’re not just collecting star ratings or vague comments. You’re getting clear, session-level data that helps you answer key questions like:

  • Which sessions were the most impactful?
  • Which speakers drove the most engagement?
  • What topics should we bring back next time?

You can sort and filter feedback by session, speaker, topic, or audience segment, then export it into shareable reports. That means you can walk into your next debrief or budget meeting with confidence, backed by data that supports your programming decisions and proves your event’s ROI.

It’s not guesswork. It’s visibility into what really worked and what’s worth doing again.
