Cvent Event Management is the BEST for Events!
We currently use Cvent Event Management on the campus to help out over 80+ colleges and departments create UT-branded websites for their events. The problems we have currently are bugs regarding emails, waitlists, payments, and reporting features. We need Cvent Event Management to figure out these errors sooner so that we can assist our customers quickly.

Cvent Event Management Review
Use Cvent Event Management for our 2 annual programs - a 300+ attendee Annual General Meeting and a 600+ attendee Annual Conference. The Cvent Event Management tool helps us to do everything associated with hosting the events prior, during, and post, this includes items, such as RFPs and venue sourcing, websites, attendee management, etc.

We use Cvent Event Management to manage all our education events inclusive of virtual and in person events. We manage registration, payments, communications, registration workflows, and OnArrival for the onsite experience. We complete the cvent event website, post speakers, and use it to convey key event information. We also have the zoom integration. Cvent helps us best reach our user community and engagement members and non members effectively. It also helps us track attendance and produce reports.

An app that does it all
My company uses Cvent management to create events for our company and give our attendees easy access to information about our events, how to schedule and plan their day, and have knowledge about the event itself. Cvent has been very user friendly and easy to navigate to create the perfect app for our users.

We are a system of community colleges in Louisiana that use Cvent Event Management to register faculty, staff, students, and sponsors/vendors for events throughout the year. We offer in-person and virtual events via Cvent. The system greatly helps our small staff manage registrations, provide event information (such as agenda, speakers, award info, etc.) to attendees, and identify sponsorship opportunities.

We are using the platform for our event websites and registration process and is has helped us streamline a lot of that process into one central area. Before Cvent Event Management we were using a lot of platform that did not communicate with each other which created a lot of broken bridges and Cvent Event Management has elevated that

Hello! I use Cvent on a daily basis for all of our programs. Aside from a few changes, Cvent has been great. With the changes, of course, have come many questions and when I get stuck, I call customer support and they are always more than willing to help solve my problem! I think that Cvent is very user-friendly. It definitely takes some time to learn all the ins and outs because there is so much to learn and many cool features!

Internal and external events organized by the company. We have more than 7 integrations at present and 5 more in pipeline. The challenge is w/ the API. It is all or none. Hence exposing secret data to downstream systems even though they don’t need it. It adds unnecessary additional effort on our end to validate downstream systems.
Cvent Event Management is used in our entire event lifecycle. We use Cvent Event Management emails and website to market events and invite attendees. Event registration is processed using Cvent Event Management. In addition, we use the Attendee Hub to stream virtual and hybrid conferences to our attendees. We also use premium surveys to collect attendee feedback following the events.
Cvent Event Management has allowed us to safely collect donor information and register them for our international vision trips. They provide a website for donors to visit to learn all of the necessary trip information, and help with budgeting, travel, speakers, and agenda creation for all of our donor events. Highly recommend!
We use Cvent Event Manager for all of our event planning from beginning to end. We use it for event management, website, registration, hotel reservations, venue sourcing, hybrid events, event recordings, marketing, and in-person app experience. It is very nice to have one program that can handle all of this instead of having to transfer data between multiple softwares.

Cvent is a great tool to use for any and every event, when you need to create a registration site. From the easy to use, user-friendly backend tools to create the registration sites (overview, bios, speakers, sessions, agenda or any additional pages you might need, to the full integrations when you're using AttendeeHub and/or OnArrival, this makes the perfect tool to use and create efficiencies. Can't recommend enough to whomever need to create sessions.

We use Cvent to plan and manage all of our events. It helps us create amazing event pages, capture event registrations and engage with attendees and sponsors. We’re a nonprofit organization that support women owned businesses. So using Cvent helps keep up with engagements for the events that help with that initiative.

Choose Cvent!
We host 2 conferences per year and have utilized Cvent Event Management since going hybrid; offering both in-person and virtual experiences. Cvent has consolidated multiple platforms into one for us: event management, registration, website, virtual conference website and mobile app, which has also helped consolidate staff resources on our conferences within these areas and streamline & lower costs.
We are an enterprise user, therefore, we use quite a few of the Cvent product modules. We currently use Event Registration, Sourcing, Abstract Management, SMM, Membership Management, and Email Marketing. The Event Registration Module allows us to be fairly flexibly with our event setups for each of our clients as well as internally. We pride ourselves on thinking outside the box where Cvent Representatives would have not gone. We have currently implemented the product 80% in our Meetings & Conferences, Group Travel and Association Management team--services not fully utilized are SMM and Email Marketing. The rest of our company utilizes mostly the Sourcing Module, however, there are times when the Event Registration Module is used accordingly. It has really helped streamline a lot of our previously manual processes--ie. Paper registrations, manually processing credit card payments, manually sending/mailing paper receipts to registrants are just a few.

At Northeastern, we use Cvent for all registration activities and types of events. Our registration experience is generally open from 50 to 3000 invitees or registrants so our web design and registration experience is much more complex. We are often never doing the same thing twice and Cvent helps us manage that experience with the use of special registration paths, registration types, and session registration. We do multi-day complex events and simple one-off events. We also do a mix of virtual and physical events. Cvent is the one tool that had alleviated all of the registration issues that we have had!

Event management made easy!
We use Cvent to create event websites and manage our meetings throughout the year. It makes it easier for our event coordinators to register attendees and their guests. Our attendees have a much better experience of being able to register from our website any time they are free.

I set up different types of Builds. I use it in conjunction with EMM, which ultimately controls what updates to Cvent Event Management overnight. Cvent Event Management saves time, as all of the templates I use are pre-filled. Cvent Event Management automates my tasks and simplifies the entire process. I can build the event, then immediately schedule the survey to be sent for the day after the event.

Cvent Saves Time
We use Cvent as the registration system for 10-15 in-person events per year ranging from 100 - 2000 attendees. We use Cvent's platform to also track speakers and exhibitors and collect information from them and to link the provided information into the Cvent AttendeeHub software for our event app and OnArrival 360 to manage attendees on-site.
Direct Travel's Meetings and Events Technology department uses Cvent to build event websites and registration platforms for meetings we plan. The flexibility of the software makes it easy for our team to develop registrations sites either simple or complex, tailored to the customer's specifications. Our team is able to collect specific attendee information, travel requests, and any other number of required details for each event we host. We also utilize Cvent's mobile event app for a number of programs to enhance the onsite experience. Because Cvent has modules for nearly every element in the event planning process, the software integrations flow well from stage to stage of the planning process with little issue, much better than siloed data would.

Overall Cvent Experience
Cvent Event Management is used in our organization for many things. The most common aspect we use is registration. Cvent Event Management helps to push out invites and compiles all the replies. But, we also use the platform for Surveys, OnArrival, the Event App and many more. It is a great product that helps us keep many things in one place.
