We were going to use Bizzabo for a big airport event, but chose not to because of the lack of customer support. We needed to be able to call them at any moment if there was an issue since we were working with a government entity.

That being said, we do recommend Bizzabo to clients that can't afford CVENT and all of the bells and whistles. Because it does have almost the same functionality, just less support.

Bizzabo Blazes Ahead of Other Hybrid Event Software

Bizzabo is really well suited for large-scale hybrid events. In this day and age, it's imperative to have a software that can successfully accommodate virtual and in-person attendees. Bizzabo blends these experiences extremely well. It is also great when event agendas are complex and need customizations - Bizzabo offers flexibility and has options for tracking session attendance. Bizzabo does not work well for smaller events with in-person only registrations. The risk of the equipment not working is high and, for smaller events, not worth the stress!

All platforms have their setbacks, but one of the better options for event management in terms of the capabilities it offers. It processes things (mostly referring to searching for registration, speaker, session, etc.) super fast, which is a great feature and super helpful because our events are so large.

We have used several systems here at the University and out of all of them this one is the best by far! We have everything in one location. My only complaint really is that it would be nice to not have to have a full webpage for a very simple event. Something basic with just a header photo and the event details would be nice. I know that this can be made on the site, it just seems a little too intricate for a basic event.

Bizzabo is a great platform for event registration. The backend is easy to use, and you can track all information well. You can also integrate many platforms like Hubspot, which allows you to keep your company's preferred format and all communications unison.

Smaller in-person events are well suited for Bizzabo. I don't have events with over 5k people, so I wouldn't know how it does beyond that point. Everything goes fine as long as you have people familiar with the processes and can manage the event setup. They also offer to send a Bizzabo expert to your event for a fee. It may be worth it for significant events.

My biggest frustration with Bizzabo is how time-intensive it is to set up events and add all necessary details. There is not an easy way to my knowledge to use dynamic data to fill in landing pages, registration, emails, etc. and as a result creating events is time-consuming and very monotonous in my experience.

In my opinion, the set-up is so overcomplicated and many options are hidden unless you're going down and clicking one-by-one on the tool menu. For our organization, we need a tighter process that requires similar formatting and tools. There's multiple areas where I can enter notes for the registering participant but it's unclear where those notes are going to be displayed.

It is very well suited to creating the event websites and managing the reporting and analytics. It is also easy to keep track of registrations and payments. It is not as easy to work with for actually running the event, and the in-person offerings are more difficult to obtain and use to better the event offerings.

It is appropriate for the event situation.
When clients all over the world can set up a meeting with us online and once the time slot is taken, it automatically closes another meeting request.
It is less appropriate when we need the event page with meeting setup function in multi languages.
As I mentioned earlier, as long as the multi language pages links each other, timeslots for the meeting set up doubled or tripled which may lead to double/triple bookings.

Overall, Bizzabo gets the job done for what I historically needed it to do, which is provide our customers with an easily accessible form to upload responses and media for our awards program. Overall, I'd have no hesitations to recommend a peer to evaluate Bizzabo for their needs since the platform has never let me down, but I will say there are some limitations to their tech stack and flexibility which would prompt me to recommend they compare it to other available options.

I have used other event platforms and their event setup is very complicated. Bizzabo's dashboard really helps guide you through all parts of the event creation and the different settings. It works well for our events where we have to have different types of registration based upon different products the customer uses so we can easily segregate the attendees appropriately.

We have used Bizzabo in quite a few event and conference now. It's a great tool and captures everything smoothly. We have heard good review about this tool from the users as well. Earlier we were using ON24 platform to capture the registration details but that kind of lags a bit and the user experience wasn't that welll.

Works well for management of both in-person and virtual meetings. Mobile app works good. Ability to access recorded sessions for one year is helpful. Since Bizzabo has worked well for my specific meeting needs, I am unable to share where it might be less appropriate.

Well suited for our events on the admin side, but not great as a networking platform for our attendees. Many of our attendees complain that they are not able to communicate with speakers / other attendees through the app on their phones. We are also looking into having a better check in system using Bizzabo.

We enjoy using Bizzabo for multi-day conferences that are in-person or virtual. The attendees are usually in Bizzabo a few months prior, so they get to understand the tool better and become acquainted with where things are located. In-person people like using the app to keep track of session rooms.

Bizzabo is a great tool that considers the user experience of both the logistics and marketing support that use the platform. Bizzabo also makes it really easy to brand the external facing experience for attendees, from the website to the mobile application. It would be nice if Bizzabo had native integrations with CRMs, such as Hubspot. The custom-built APIs work, but there are some challenges if you have multiple ticket types.

Events will a smaller number of registrants or a slower pace of registration would work better. With our event having such a high volume and peak times, we couldn't keep up with the flow due to the manual search + sticking the klik wearable on the badge + attaching the lanyards. An option to have the badge pre-assembled would go a long way and allow any event type or size to use Bizzabo effectively.

Overall have had very good experiences. It's been a great fit for when we have our in person annual customer conference with attendees from around the world. Being able to see all events and sessions in one clean application makes it very easy to choose which to attend. I would recommend creating a function that allows us to see which attendees are attending which session.
