The skipper marshalled her defence expertly throughout the 90 minutes, earning the Barclays Player of the Match award at full-time.
She spoke to Palace TV at full-time, and the satisfaction with the performance was clear.
Everett said: "I think my smile says it all. To come here to the Emirates and get a point off one of the best teams in the world is huge.
"We defended for most of the game and showed a whole team performance."
The result meant that Palace are unbeaten in their first two Women's Super League games, and are yet to concede a goal.
Speaking about what it meant to hold out against Arsenal, Everett said: "It's huge for our first away game of the season.
"But last week we got our three points against Everton, and we knew that coming here we could still get something.
"Today showed it's not just the back line and a keeper. I think right from back to front, we were unbelievable.
"Everyone dug in, did their job and I think we deserve to come out with that point from just our defensive efforts."
Everett also spoke about the expectations on the team, and whether this Palace side might be a little underrated in the WSL.
"Yeah, massively. We weren't happy two seasons ago. We've obviously got a completely different team now, and we know we are capable of so much more.
"We just go again next week. Each week's a new week. We've got Tottenham, another big game at Selhurst Park next week," she said.
Finally, she reserved some special praise for the Palace faithful.
She said: "Yeah, they were massive. Obviously the Arsenal fans are huge, and again, we're away from home, but I could only hear one team out there."
You can be there at Selhurst Park for the game against Spurs, with kick-off scheduled for 14:00 BST this Sunday (20th September).
