About
RainFocus is an enterprise event management and marketing platform providing event registration, attendee engagement, exhibitor management, and event analytics for large-scale professional conferences, trade shows, and corporate events — serving enterprise companies and associations that run events with thousands to tens of thousands of attendees. Founded in 2012 and headquartered in Salt Lake City, Utah, RainFocus serves major enterprise customers including Cisco (Cisco Live), Adobe (Adobe Summit), and IBM (Think) for their flagship customer conference events, where sophisticated registration and data capture capabilities are critical.\n\nRainFocus's platform handles complex enterprise event logistics: multi-session conference registration with capacity management, attendee type differentiation (customer, partner, press, speaker), personalized session recommendations, on-site badge printing and credential scanning, exhibitor lead retrieval, and post-event analytics. The platform's data architecture connects event attendance data with CRM and marketing automation systems (Salesforce, Marketo) to measure event influence on sales pipeline and customer retention.\n\nIn 2025, RainFocus competes in the enterprise event management platform market against Cvent (the dominant enterprise events platform), Bizzabo, and Stova for large-scale conference management. The corporate events market recovered strongly post-COVID, with major technology companies reinstating large customer conferences after several years of virtual-only events. RainFocus's differentiation is its data-first architecture — the platform collects granular attendee behavioral data (which sessions were attended, which exhibitor booths were visited) that connects to enterprise marketing analytics. The 2025 strategy focuses on expanding its AI-powered event personalization (AI session recommendations), growing its analytics integration with enterprise CRM systems, and expanding in the association events market.
