It's a night and day difference. Blackthorn was disaster and had SO many bugs. We have yet to run into a major issue with Cvent Event Management. Cvent Event Management did cost more money, but we're getting so much more. Blackthorn didn't have user friendly event emails, Cvent …
Cvent Event Management has been used by my company for years, even before I joined the marketing department. I have heard that there were issues using Hubb Conference Management like with their "intuitive" staff calendars with automatic conflict notifications to avoid …

We will be integrating and looking forward to see how they work together.
Cvent continues to keep robust reporting and provide integrations to additional platforms that can't compare. There are some elements that seem more complicated than necessary, but the overall platform provides so much opportunity for a company to centralize all event data: …
Compared to our previous more customized inhouse registration system (or our old use of excel sheets for tracking) Cvent Event Management has greatly improved our data management and reporting, our stakeholder communications, and our visual brand. We selected Cvent in the end …

We had RegOnline before it was acquired by Cvent and it had so many less features. You could really only do registration with it and there was limited opportunity to customize the registration. It was difficult to set up and not user friendly. Once we made the switch our team …
Cvent has a better end-to-end product than Boomset. We wanted something that had abstract management, website building, email management, reporting, onsite reporting, CE credit reporting, an event app, and even more. Cvent was the clear one-stop shop for all of those things …
Cvent Event Management handles the client experience and client journey in a better way. There are not as many intricate CRM functionality details, however, there are enough details to keep trending records. Blackbaud products can "get into the weeds" when trying to view or …
These features are very limited in what is needed in a flexible setting. In addition both Salesforce and Whaller privacy and security policy is over-reaching. They both require to store the information of every registant and their personal information without providing access …
We previously used Starcite, and Cvent has a much better interface and many more functionalities. Some that we haven't even gotten to use yet but plan to. Cvent allows everyone in the company to quickly gather the information that they need. The user interface is very simple …
When searching for a product to use, Cvent Event Management had the best reviews. Therefore, I didn't use any other products and went straight to Cvent. I also found that other event managers within my company were using Cvent already and had great success.
Cvent is a much fuller program, it requires more time in the build-out phase, but allows for stronger branding for the user, and greater customization.
Prior to using Cvent,my company would build out their registration websites and system all from within - we took an internal approach, a solution which was not very efficient. We have never used another system outside of the Cvent family but are aware of other companies and …
I have used Salesforce Lightening in the past. While I was able to catch on quickly, it was very cumbersome, and a lot of our older co-workers still have trouble understanding it, and it was implemented almost a year ago. It's not intuitive and clunky. Also not professionally …
The same thing I’ve been saying: Cvent is customizable in a way the others are not. It’s scalable and can bare our brand. I think, more importantly, they’re always innovating and their innovation makes us look modern and top of our game to our attendees. At Cvent, we feel like …
We were mandated to start using Cvent. We like the customizing aspect of the product.

We have always used Cvent Event Management and it has always been a great experience for us so we have not explored other options. Cvent has a great support team and our account managers are very helpful. Cvent offers so many resources to learn more about enhancements and how …
Cvent Event Management is the caviar of event management tools. It is expensive, but you get what you pay for. Again, it is useful to us for our larger complex events that involve multiple invite lists and sessions, but is cost prohibitive when it is a basic yes/no scenario. It …
I was not involved in the selection process of either system at either company. However, I would definitely select Cvent for future use because it integrates so many tools in one place and can easily be hooked via API into most existing marketing stacks.
