Considered Both Products
Award Force
Chose Award Force
The customer support team was outstanding in AF. They were very attentive and on point in our requirements. Also the pricing was very affordable. We had few recommendations from existing users who were already in our business market.
Eventzilla
Chose Eventzilla
Eventzilla is a budget-friendly tool and has a very dynamic pricing model. You only pay for the features you use.
Chose Eventzilla
Eventbrite is suitable for much larger events with way more customization features, which we don't really require in our organization. Eventzilla is the perfect platform to create and register for events as per our requirements.
Chose Eventzilla
I am not particularly familiar with any event registration / ticketing alternatives. This software was used by my organization when I was hired and it is all I am familiar with!

Award Force integrates API and SSO integration which is a plus and the dashboard and reporting is very intuitive. Good sense of security, prevention of spam and data protection, these features are what an organization looks for and Award Force seamlessly provides them. The capability to broadcast the emails and do so by the status of the submission

  • It helps you set up everything - creating landing pages, managing registrations, forms, attendees, streaming, poll questions, surveys, payments, and event promotion.
  • The data can be easily retrieved and exported later.
  • The interface however needs a little improvement.

  • Some aspects of the software could be more intuitive - I found that pointing my domain to the Eventzilla landing page was extremely difficult
  • It is not easy to get a hold of customer support - It took a significant amount of time for me to get in contact with a support agent

Usability

As, stated before, the only thing that I found to be difficult when using this software was pointing an existing domain to the Eventzilla Registration landing page. I followed all of the steps as illustrated and I continued to experience errors when trying to navigate via the domain. I could not get in contact with support and so we chose to use the extremely long Eventzilla domain. This was not a big deal, but it would have been nice to use our own domain that we purchased

Support is adequate, but sometimes has difficulty grasping all of the pieces of a question. Once, I asked for help with a relatively technical integration that we were using to track event effectiveness, and their answer left me wondering if they even understood that the feature I was asking about even existed in their system.

Return on Investment
  • Huge cost saving on paper usage. Cost reduction almost by 90%
  • Transparency in judging process.
  • Time to judge and evaluate the programs gone down by 60%.

  • We use it for internal events, so mostly our ownemployees join the events. These are usually fun events, so ROI is not expected.
  • Most of the times, we are simply organizing recreational events for our employees, so it boosts the morale of the participants to have a proper organized setup for the events they attend.
