Overall Satisfaction with Whova

Please read: I cannot recommend Whova enough. I've been to plenty of trade shows, and every other trade show/event app I have used is kind of garbage. Whova absolutely raised the bar for how great a trade show/event app can be. If you are hosting a midsize or largesize trade show/conference/corporate event, and need an app, use Whova.
(For context: My company attended a trade show. The trade show organizers are the ones who used Whova for the attendees, such as ourselves, to get organized, communicate, and plan events with each other).
I rarely go out of my way to leave reviews, but I was so impressed by Whova that I simply had to. Tons of meet-ups and networking opportunities were organized successfully within the trade show, thanks to Whova. It's easy to use, reliable, and has taught me that trade show/event apps don't need to be bad, they can be great.
  • Allows event attendees to chat with each other and plan their own mini-networking events, and invite each other
  • Provides an easy-to-follow list of event sessions, rountables, etc. and lets you build your own schedule
  • Let's you scan leads (free) and retain that info
  • Compared to every other trade show app, there's no flaws
  • Communication with other users
  • Organizing your own schedule of sessions, etc
  • Lead scanning
  • As event attendees it didn't cost us anything, and the ROI was awesome
  • We were able to attend and coordinate informal networking events thanks to Whova
