How Covasna and Harghita Counties Promote Tourism with Travel Apps

The success of our customers is vital to the success of our own – this is our ideology, here at Eventya.

We firmly believe that all reputable SaaS companies should be more in touch with their clients. Especially after their products have been delivered, to analyze their performance in the market.

This is why we don’t just measure our conversions or ROI, but the results that our clients obtained with our mobile apps. Client-orientation is what helps distinguish our brand from the competition and continuously improve our app builder.

So without further ado, let’s see the success stories of our clients, using our custom tourism & travel apps.

How Do Our Clients Promote Their Regions With Travel Apps?

The tourism industry has been severely impacted by the pandemic. Not that it hasn’t been hard enough to promote tourist destinations before.

This is mainly why we’re especially happy about the results of our clients. By leveraging the power of our travel apps, they managed to promote their regions, against all odds.

So let’s see the results of two of the most prominent travel apps built with our app builder.

Visit Harghita – Attracting Tourists With a Centralized Digital Platform

Visit Harghita was an app that addressed a particular issue – the scarcity, or rather complete lack of tourist information. Tourists had virtually no information about accommodation, gastronomy, or engaging activities.

And as you might have guessed, there are no tourists without travel resources or promotions.

To amend these issues, the Harghita Tourism Association contacted us at Eventya, to create its own tourism & travel app.

Now, Harghita has its centralized tourist hub and has been successfully promoting its region ever since.

Visit Harghita attracts tourists by uploading rich content and providing an interactive informational portal for tourists from all across the world. Thanks to their continuous efforts the association was able to secure over 10,000 app downloads.

The app also offers a tourist-oriented blog filled with itineraries and things to do in the region. Tourists will also find the tourism association’s top 25 picks for leisure, accommodation, restaurants, etc.

Here are some of the key features employed by Visit Harghita to promote its region:

One thing’s for certain – Visit Harghita proved to be a success, with a steady 50% increase in monthly downloads. With its centralized tourism app rich in content, Harghita’s tourism is set to blossom.

Visit Covasna – A Premier App to Promote the Region

Visit Covasna is Covasna county’s dedicated tourism & travel app.

The Covasna Tourism Association created the mobile app to improve information segmentation and drive more tourists to its beautiful region.

Since its release, the mobile app has been enriched with information on accommodation, gastronomy, and leisure, as well as relevant POIs and custom tours.

As a bonus, Visit Covasna even offers categories that are meant to guide tourists during the pandemic. You’ll find categories of family-friendly venues as well as businesses that are marked safe during COVID and function throughout the crisis.

The app offers an intuitive and user-friendly digital experience for tourists with several offline functions included.

No wonder that Visit Covasna reached over 6,000 downloads since it launched. And with so many tourist-oriented functions, the mobile app is set for steady future growth.

Here are some of the main features behind Visit Covasna’s success:

Tour Guide
Nearby Search
Events Calendar
Push Notifications

Articles and News

Partly thanks to these cutting-edge features, the travel app was rewarded for its performance in online tourism promotion in 2018. And the Etravel conference’s 2nd place for “best travel app” is no easy achievement.

Yet, we were even more pleased to read the team’s positive experience with our app builder platform:

“Visit Covasna County tourist application is developed by Eventya. We could not have done this APP without the devotion and promptness of their team. The Eventya platform is a complex one, with many possibilities to promote a tourist destination.” – Kopacz Zsuzsa, tourism analyst – Tourism Development Association, Covasna County.

With the mobile app’s high-end features and the continuous efforts of the association behind it, Visit Covasna will greatly increase the number of tourists visiting the region’s breathtaking surroundings, ski paradise, and resorts.

Why Choose Tourism & Travel Apps to Promote Your Region

Tourism & travel apps are a future-proof tool for marketing your tourist destination or region. And the great thing about mobile apps is that they’re customizable to complement the goals of any tourist attraction.

Regardless if you manage the hottest region of your country, or perhaps the most underdeveloped one, a mobile app is the perfect method to attract more tourists to your region.

Why? Because in comparison to a website, they give your visitors a reason to return and interact with your platform. And with more positive digital experiences, the chance of converting your app users to tourists drastically increases.

Especially if you offer a discount for your app users and a seamless in-app booking experience. These can further your clients’ relationship with your brand and gradually increase your conversions.

So are you ready to attract more tourists to your region? That’s great because, at Eventya, we specialize in promoting tourism regions with native mobile apps.

All you have to do is sign up for our free trial and start creating your app with our intuitive, no-code app builder.

And remember, that your region is always one travel app away from becoming a dream destination.
