That is why on my part I use Cvent Event Management to automate the entire process of event management from registration, venue selection to execution.

Corporate Events Specialist Financial Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Cvent Event Management Tool Recommendation" October 21, 2025 5.0 Cvent has completely revolutionized the way we handled conference registration and promotion. The fact that everything from the conference website to the attendee list is available all within one space saves us time and effort again and again. Pros Cvent Event Management is a tool that streamlines all of my event's most important elements - an event website, attendee list, reporting features, badge printing and so much more. Cons There are some features that take some time and research to fully understand how to use to the fullest capability, but I have found both the Cvent Community and Cvent support to be invaluable in helping ensure I overcome any issues I encounter. Alternatives considered [Results@Hand](https://www.capterra.com/p/10022509/ResultsHand/) Reason for choosing Cvent Event Management The functionality and price met our criteria. Switched from [forms.app](https://www.capterra.com/p/197758/forms-app/) We were looking for a company that offered an app in tandem with a registration feature and Cvent fit that criteria.

From registration and agenda building to email communications and reporting, everything was streamlined in one platform. The customizable registration forms and workflows saved us hours of manual work, and the ability to track real-time data gave us better control over attendee engagement and event performance. It made planning large-scale events feel far more manageable and efficient. Cons What I liked least about Cvent Event Management is the learning curve when first getting started. The platform is incredibly robust, which is great long-term, but it can feel overwhelming at first, especially for users who are new to event tech. Some features and settings aren't always intuitive and require training or support to fully understand. That said, once you get familiar with the system (and take advantage of Cvent’s support resources and knowledge base), it becomes a powerful tool that’s well worth the investment of time upfront.

I also like that Cvent Event Management offers email marketing tools unlike alternatives. Cons Since I implemented Cvent Event Management in 2020, I have never encountered issues while registering, planning and executing events. Review Source NG Nicole G. SMMS Operator Financial Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "My Cvent Experience" September 11, 2025 5.0 Ive been using Cvent for over 10 years now, and it has definitely grown and enhanced alot over the years. I think its great that they have so many new integrations now which gives lots of options for different groups / users. I would like to see the Product Development requests prioritized though if its something that is a big pain point (budget functionality, or Reporting). Pros It is an all-encompassing tool / platform that has the most indepth features. We have looked at numerous other platforms to always compare and ensure that we are getting the best value for money - and this user interface always seems to be the most robust! Cons I think that there is too much emphasis on the "look" of things, rather than the functionality of things. Some features are available but not fully updated / meet the performance levels as they used to be before they were "updated", so it makes it hard to have a consistent structure and process. For Training, we have to re-teach it often, but not because the tool has developed but more so how to find the buttons has changed. Review Source DH Debra H.

June 10, 2025 5.0 I believe my association has been working in Cvent since 2013. I can remember day one like it was yesterday. I couldn't wait until I was able to work fluidly in Cvent. I am certified in Cvent Classic and am very excited about being signed up to get certified in Flex today! Pros I love that we are able to customize meeting builds. I also love that if there is something you want to learn how to do or if you need to troubleshoot customer support is available. Cons I wish the cvent library worked the same way it did in the classic version. I keep hearing it's being worked on and would love if it's moved up on the list. :-) Switched from [NetForum Enterprise](https://www.capterra.com/p/184340/NetForum/) It was not flexible and didn't allow for easy customizing.

Event Manager Financial Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "High Learning Curve, but High Reward" June 10, 2025 4.0 My overall experience using Cvent Management has been positive. Now that I am much more familiar and comfortable navigating the platform, I am able to work through each phase of my event workflow. They also have an AMAZING custom support team who is patient and extremely knowledgable. Pros Cvent Event Management offer an expansive list of tools and resources for building out and executing an event from early planning to post-event wrap up. Cons Because of the expansive amount of tools offered, the learning curve is very steep as the platform isn't always intuitive. I find with enough clicking around, I tend to get to where I need to be, but occasionally it is not always evident. This makes it difficult when onboarding new members of my team as it takes many months of continuous practice and real life application to truly get comfortable with the platform usage.

Founder Events Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "A Powerful All-in-One Tool for Seamless Event Management" August 27, 2025 5.0 My overall experience with Cvent Event Management has been very positive. The platform brings together everything needed to plan and run events, registration, communications, check-in, and reporting into one system, which saved a lot of time and improved the attendee experience. There is a learning curve at the start, but once set up, it’s a powerful tool that makes our events run more smoothly and gives us great data for measuring success. Pros What I liked most about Cvent Event Management is that it brings everything into one central system. From registration and communications to onsite check-in and reporting. It saved time, made the attendee experience smoother, and gave us clear insights into event performance. Cons What I liked least about Cvent Event Management was the steep learning curve at the beginning. While it’s very powerful once you know your way around, the setup and customisation took longer than expected. Alternatives considered [Zoho Backstage](https://www.capterra.com/p/178453/Zoho-Backstage/)[EventsAir](https://www.capterra.com/p/130158/EventsAIR/)[Humanitix](https://www.capterra.com/p/10004030/Humanitix/) Reason for choosing Cvent Event Management We chose Cvent over other platforms like EventsAir, Zoho Backstage, and Humanitix because it offered the most comprehensive set of tools in one place. While those platforms are strong in their niches, Cvent provided the scalability, reporting, integrations, and professional attendee experience we needed for larger, more complex events. Switched from [Eventbrite](https://www.capterra.com/p/114949/Eventbrite/) Price and ease of functionality. All-In-One platform instead of using multiple platforms. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Event Manager Hospitality Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Daily Cvent User" September 29, 2025 5.0 Pros What I liked most about Cvent Event Management is how comprehensive the platform is for handling the entire event lifecycle. It makes tasks like registration, session tracking, reporting, and communication much more streamlined and centralized. I also appreciate the flexibility to customize registration paths and reporting, which helps tailor the experience to different types of events and attendees. Overall, it saves a lot of time by bringing so many tools together in one place. Cons Some features aren’t always intuitive, and it can take extra time to learn or troubleshoot. Reporting is powerful but sometimes requires more customization than expected to get exactly what you need.

This platform makes it super easy to create landing pages for our events.The on arrival feature is a total lifesaver. Being able to check in attendees and print badges on the spot really levels up the whole experience for everyone involved. Plus, it's super handy for keeping track of who's actually shown up. Cons I wish the site designer was a little easier to use, as sometimes it is hard to move things around and can be a bit clunky. Review Source Chris J. Registration and Technology Manager Events Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Cvent ROCKS" April 30, 2025 5.0 I like Cvent, very user friendly and easy to figure things out if I don't have previous experience in it. Pros I use Cvent daily for my job, I mostly use it for attendee management and reporting. I love the new custom reports and registration dashboard. Cons N/A - Cvent gets better each year. I wish the reporting wasn't so siloed into the various categories because sometimes I need fields that aren't available on that particular report, so I end up using Registration Details or Invitee Details report to essentially create my own report. Review Source SE Sam E. Event Coordinator Telecommunications Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Cvent Connect Event" October 16, 2025 5.0 Cvent event management is great overall. Having been to the Cvent Connect event, I've realised that I haven't been utilizing it to its full potential. Cvent always seems to be evolving, potentially more frequent catch ups with the customer success teams to run through product rollouts could be good to keep up to date. Pros Cvent management is a great tool that incorporates aspects of many different tools into one. There are a lot of different options for creativity and personalisation Cons Sometimes it can be tricky to navigate the website manager in terms of different languages for the same site. Review Source KC Kate C. Program Coordinator Higher Education Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Cvent Event management is a great all in one product! " June 9, 2025 4.0 Overall, I love using Cvent Event Management - we use it for everything from event registration websites, emails, and check-ins. Pros Cvent Event management is great in terms of having everything you need for a successful event in one area. Compared to other web-based website and email builders, it's much easier to use and learn. I love how they are always coming out with new updates and staying up to date on the latest technological trends. Cons When the server goes down, it can be difficult to navigate around it. And since my job is 95% Cvent based, it makes it difficult to do my job.

Cons worst customer service ever, with high employee turnover, which was not helpful in a crisis. especially on site.

Director of Professional Development Higher Education Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Director of Professional Development" October 17, 2024 5.0 Having worked with Cvent extensively over the years, I can confidently say it has been a reliable and robust platform. The customer service team stands out for their responsiveness, and my overall experience has been consistently positive. Pros Cvent Event Management offers a comprehensive solution that streamlines the entire event planning process. The platform seamlessly integrates essential features including event setup, speaker coordination, and attendee registration management. Event organizers can easily handle sponsor and exhibitor interactions, coordinate sessions, and foster participant engagement through interactive tools. Built-in feedback surveys help measure event success and gather valuable insights. A standout feature is the platform's user-friendly website builder and mobile app creation tools, which enhance the event experience while requiring minimal technical expertise. Cons Cvent, while powerful, comes with a significant cost investment, making it most cost-effective for our larger-scale events. The platform's training resources are somewhat restrictive – comprehensive learning opportunities are primarily available through the annual Cvent CONNECT conference or in the Community webinars. This limitation can impact new users' ability to fully utilize the platform's capabilities.

From the RFP process to the Post Event Surveys. Pros CVENT allows us as a company to feature one registration site where we can manage attendees, payments, waitlists and RFP venues for our events all within one program. Cons There are often times technical issues that arise with the software due to coding, tags, etc that make it difficult to change things occasionally.

For large in-person events, I’ve relied on its speedy and responsive check-in feature, which made managing a large audience seamless. It ensured that attendees could check in quickly, reducing wait times and enhancing their overall experience. On the flip side, for smaller meetings, Cvent has been equally effective. I’ve used it to manage notifications, RSVPs, and all logistical details with ease.
