The Zerista mobile app for iOS and Android are designed to work offline. To enable this, the app periodically syncs data and stores it locally on the phone.

- Attendees (1 hours)
- Account Tags a.k.a. Interest Tags (1 hour)
- Campaigns (1 hour)
- Chatter (3 minutes)
- Collateral (2 hours)
- Conferences (1 hour)
- Discover (6 hours)
- Events (1 hour)
- Exhibitors (1 hour)
- Exhibitor Booths (12 hours)
