What is Event Tracking Software? Event Tracking Software manages all kinds of contacts and orders concerning an event. It tracks the real-time event activities and aids in various processes such as registration, stage management, and accounting.
Event tracking, or action tracking, usually refers to the monitoring of interactions on a website beyond a simple web page load. Event tracking provides data on how visitors are engaging (or not engaging) with a website, making it possible to fine-tune SEO and PPC marketing campaigns to maximum effect.
