"Rather than having to integrate everything into a third-party service on another site, businesses can take advantage of an already existing infrastructure and built-in social media tools, while still retaining branding control." - Mashable
"Of all the calendar solutions, Localist looks the best." - HigherEdLive
"A recent perusal of events at the 6,200-student campus included invitations to watch the television series Gossip Girl with the sisters of Alpha Phi, attend a general assembly with the Public Health Student Forum, and shop at the local community farmers market.
"The Localist platform also monitors a student's interests in order to custom-tailor recommendations of events to attend and new places to visit.
"Every university has an events calendar, but, until now, no university has [had] a great events calendar that ties into the tools that students are already using," said Tim Windsor, director of Web strategy. "That's why I was excited at the opportunity to work with Localist to build a solution for Johns Hopkins that not only is simple to manage but plugs seamlessly into Facebook, Google Calendar, and iCal on the Mac and iPhone... There's nothing else out there that offers a better solution for higher education events calendars." - Campus Technology
