Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We use Cvent to create registration websites for all of our events
Pros
  • Create event registration websites fast
  • Very responsive tech support
  • Feature-rich
Cons
  • Not user-friendly
  • Steep learning curve
  • Flex events are lacking in features
Likelihood to Recommend
Cvent works really well for large events or any event where potential attendees need up to date registration information and the ability to make changes. It is probably not needed for small events where you don't need to communicate with attendees all that much.

Cvent Event Management can get the job done, but it doesn't make it easy

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
Cvent Event Management is being used by my organization to create registration pages, manage different types of registrations (within the same event), and track attendance for various in-person events. It is being used primarily by the marketing department, but as the marketing department is in charge of in-person external events, the entire company makes use of it through them. It addresses the business problem of conveniently being able to collect and analyze registrant and attendee information for in-person events.
Pros
  • Cvent Event Management makes things easy for our customers, in terms of registering for an event, modifying their registration, and checking in at the event to attend.
  • Cvent Event Management allows for the export of registrant and attendee data.
  • Cvent Event Management allows for integration with other tools like HubSpot and CrowdCompass.
Cons
  • Cvent Event Management does not have the best user interface, and has a noticeable learning curve.
  • While one can download registrant and attendee data from Cvent Event Management, the report/data export tool is overly complicated compared to data exports from HubSpot or Qualtrics.
  • Setting up a new event can be a bit difficult, due to the user interface, and is more time consuming than it otherwise could be
  • In my experience, their customer service has not been particularly good. More often than not, when seeking help for technical issues, I've been left on hold for upwards of an hour at a time, and that has happened multiple times.
Likelihood to Recommend
Cvent Event Management can be useful if a tool is needed to collect and track registrations and attendance for events. It would be less appropriate for online events, in my opinion, compared to designated webinar tools like On24. If one is less experienced with event management, Cvent Event Management may be less appropriate due to the steep learning curve and difficult user interface.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We are a small non-profit that runs about 300 events year around. We only use the Cvent Event Management platform, and let me say it is by far very sleek looking and easy to manage, now that they have moved to Flex. There is a steep learning curve to it, some of the navigations are not intuitive, but once you learn it the platform is very easy for users on the outside and staff here. It addresses the issue of mobile access to a dedicated event page that can have multiple items for people to buy. It's not clunky or single use, you can have as many different items and packages on it for people to easily purchase and/or refund.
Pros
  • Website
  • Payment and refunds
  • Service
Cons
  • Reporting
  • Navigation intuitiveness
  • Not all products are on Flex!
Likelihood to Recommend
Cvent is great for complex event tickets/registrations. IE a conference or event with multiple things happening at once. It isn't worth the cost for a single ticket type event.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
My company uses Cvent to offer online registration for live, virtual and hybrid events.
Pros
  • Online Registration
  • Reporting
  • Marketing of Event
  • Emails to potential and registered attendees
Cons
  • Would like a better way to view Speaker Resource Center uploads.
  • Would like more flexibility in design of website and emails
Likelihood to Recommend
Cvent Event Management is well suited for any event that wants to advertise the event, accept registrations, and communicate with prospective and registered attendees via email. Reporting feature is also very good. Cvent does have a bit of a learning curve and is not for the casual user.

Overall Value! Our Success Manager is very helpful.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We use Cvent to provide registration for five our organization's events annually. Cvent collects our attendee's information and payments leading up to the events.
Pros
  • Thorough question visibility logic
  • Fast customer service if I have a question
  • Thorough reporting
Cons
  • Flexibility on an account level to fit our unique organization needs
  • Pushing back product release dates, which affects our organization's event deadlines
Likelihood to Recommend
Cvent has products that fit basically every need you would have in the event industry. Our organization chooses to use some of those and use other partners for others, but this could be your one stop shop for event planning. We also found Cvent to be the cheapest option within the event industry, which we really appreciate.
