Likelihood to Recommend I am highly likely to always recommend Cvent Onsite Solutions based on the positive experience I have had with them. I have had an amazing experience overall with the entire Cvent platform and all of their offerings. The support team is awesome and extremely knowledgeable. This is the type of software that offers customers the cutting edge to excel
Read full review Slido is great to use for live meetings, whether in person or via video conference; we mostly use this for Zoom meetings. You can use the different features at different times in your meeting: I love to start our All Hands meetings with a word cloud or a poll of some kind, and as people are joining via zoom it gets people feeling excited and connected even before we've started. It also gives us something fun to talk about while we're waiting for everyone to arrive and for the meeting to start. You can do a poll halfway through to keep people engaged, and then a poll at the end to see how you did, or maybe use the Q&A to see what questions come up without having the awkward zoom silence when you ask if anyone has any questions. I don't think this is helpful in smaller meetings, where people likely feel more comfortable interacting directly and asking questions verbally.
Read full review Pros Allows a smoother process for attendees Allows our staff more time to focus on other onsite tasks during the conference Shifts to more of a digital process rather than relying on paper/by hand check ins Read full review Its integration with various Webex apps like Webex Meetings and Webex Webinars and leading softwares like Zoom and Google Slides Its simple user interface and eye-catching graphics The detailed analytics it provides of the polls and surveys conducted and the ability of exporting them The ability of integrating live video into Slido so participants dont have to switch tabs Participants can ask questions anonymously or with their names without having to unmute themselves and disturbing the flow of the meeting Read full review Cons Pricing. If we can get lower pricing, we can use for more events. Buying our own on-site kits vs having Cvent team needing to be onsite. Read full review Pricing Model - free version is quite limited and the package prices can be more attractive for SME companies User Interface Complexity - the UX in the backend is good, but sometimes I am confused to find a specific function Real time translation would be great in terms of accessibility Read full review Usability Had a very good experience using this feature to track attendance and see real time data
Read full review Slido has one of the most intuitive Dashboards I've ever seen. It's easy to use and easy to manage. I've extensively used Polls and Quizzes and it works like a charm, every time.
Read full review Support Rating The person onsite can be hit or miss. We have had a few really wonderful support technicians that came prepared, were helpful, and jumped in where needed. We have had others that sat back, didn't offer advice or best practices tips, and were not pleasant to work with. It's very hit or miss.

Read full review Alternatives Considered My organization also uses the
Cvent Event Management platform. We did try using another platform called "STAR" which had very limited offerings compared to the Cvent Onsite Solutions. STAR did not have a user-friendly layout nor was it easy to digitally manage our events. Maybe the STAR platform works better on a smaller scale, but we are a large organization so it simply wasn't efficient for us
Read full review It's as simple as just Microsoft Word Visual Basic. We used to use that. Just a lot more cumbersome with the program and setup. Can be buggy depending on the browser operating system that you're running it on. Nothing specific for surveys. This was the first one we got that's officially for a survey that I know of. I've been there for about five years.
