Overall Satisfaction with Cvent Event Management

We use Cvent across our geography from event registration, on arrival for on-site badge printing and AttendeeHub on occasion for events that require mobile apps. We have events that range from 10-1800 people and needed a better way to manage lists, housing requirements, badge printing and check-in process to keep capacity counts at venues.

Pros

  • Housing and Room block management
  • Up-to-date numbers of check-ins and reporting for senior management at events
  • Complex registration for multi-session events

Cons

  • Language management can be confusing
  • Reporting fields can be hard to match up
  • We do not really track ROI but it has helped us manage food and beverage numbers better
For the most part it's been easy to figure out but some areas of the pages are clunky to work around. However once you build a site well, it's then easy to clone and continue moving forward on creating new events.
None, Cvent was the only one we really looked into for our onsite event management. We've tried ON24 and Hopin for our virtual event needs, but it's been nice to have one platform that can do it all and we can track attendee engagement across multiple events instead of having the data siloed and manually try and manage it.

Do you think Cvent Event Management delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Cvent Event Management's feature set?

Yes

Did Cvent Event Management live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Cvent Event Management go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Cvent Event Management again?

Yes

It's sometimes a lot of work for small dinner events, we find it works better for our 50+ people events where new registrations could be happening last minute and we require badges and on-site solutions in real-time.
