Amadeus Sales & Event Management vs. Cvent Event Diagramming

Great support and roll-out from Amadeus. The use of the product is very straight forward for the basics, and has great depth if you want to "get under the hood". The ability to centrally control contract or documentation formats across multiple regions, is a huge benefit.

It's the best software I've used. It allowed me to collaborate on a huge event with multiple stakeholders to ensure the main planner understood the venue and capacity issues. It's also allowed me to realize the scope of venue needs and abilities. Very helpful in visualizing a space

• User-friendly. It's easy for us to train other team members/staff/volunteers to use the front-end system for registration and event check-in.
• Social Tables is great for creating custom room layouts and diagrams.
• Social tables is customizable. We're able to capture specific information for attendees, and can "tag" them when additional info is needed.

• More "drag and drop" dashboarding
• Ability to enter Goals/Budgets per person vs. by hotel

• A development that would be useful would be the ability to reorder the diagrams to a custom order in one event so that when exported as one document, they are in an order that can be customized to flow well for the meeting planner.

From initial build out, and up through use in the live production environment, Amadeus Support has been extremely responsive, they take ownership of challenges presented, and they have strong follow up for satisfaction of resolution

The support was exceptional, and they remained an arm's reach away for when we ran into any questions after we began using the tool. Overall, we experienced phenomenal customer service. We also had more than one web-based call where their team would walk us through examples and answer any questions we had.

No comparison.... Caterease is super slim and feature poor. Amadeus is feature rich and highly customizable.

It has similar tools that MeetingMatrix has, but the Collaboration, or allowing vendors access is the feature that I appreciate the most that Cvent Event Diagraming offers that MeetingMatrix did not have. It is also easier to save as a PDF to print and email a version to vendors as well
