SessionLab is SOC 2 Type II compliant

Being SOC 2 Type II certified helps us meet those expectations, so teams can confidently use SessionLab as a shared workspace for designing, managing, and scaling high quality facilitation. Let's explore why this matters and explain SOC2 type II attestation in a little more detail. What is SOC 2 compliance?

Multi-day agendas available in SessionLab

Ever since we released the first version of SessionLab, we received many requests to develop a better option to create multi-day agendas. It is a frequent scenario that a workshop or training session spans longer than a day, and previously the only option was to create two separate sessions for each day and then trying to manage them together in the multi-plan view. That was certainly a cumbersome way to deal with such sessions. We are happy to announce that support for multi-day agendas is now available in SessionLab! With the new feature, you can open separate days (day-sessions) under a session if you want to design a session that…

What’s new there? 1) New views (Recent, Personal, Your Team) help you to find your sessions: you get an easy overview of what is in your Personal and in your Team workspaces.
