Judges are at the heart of every credible awards programme. With v2.43, we've focused on making their work faster, smoother and more enjoyable — so they can spend their time and energy on what matters most: choosing the best.

Flag favourites and entries to revisit without losing your flow.

Better outcomes
Less friction means judges can focus on the entries.
Pinned nominations: curate as you go
Judges can now pin nominations as they work through a category — making it effortless to flag entries for later review or to loosely collect a working set of favourites before final scoring. It's a small change with a big impact: judges have the freedom to think, compare and revisit at their own pace.
For longer judging sessions or particularly competitive categories, this is the kind of feature that makes the whole experience feel calmer and more considered.
Why judges will love it
No more sticky notes, screenshots or mental shortlists.
Pinned nominations live right inside Evessio, so judges can step away, come back, and pick up exactly where they left off — with all their thinking intact.
Next and Previous: a smoother path through every category
Moving between nominations is now seamless. With Next and Previous controls built directly into the nomination pop-up, judges can flow through entries without breaking concentration or returning to the list view each time.
It's a small interface change with a meaningful impact on focus — and on how quickly judges can complete a category without feeling rushed.
A refreshed design for greater clarity
The judging pop-up itself has been treated to a refined design and improved layout, making content easier to read and the overall experience cleaner and more modern. It's the kind of thoughtful polish that makes judges want to spend time in the platform.
Judging that respects everyone's time
These improvements share one purpose: making it easier for great judges to do great work. By removing friction at every step, Evessio frees them to focus on the entries themselves — which is exactly where their attention should be.
The result is happier judges, smoother judging cycles, and awards programmes that continue to deliver the credibility and prestige your audience expects.
