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.

### "CVENT Event Management very nearly does everything I need."

December 3, 2024

4.0

It can do a lot in regards to either managing or reporting on events or the registrations of the users of those events. Undoubtedly there are even more features that I do not use as part of my role.

Pros

It is versatile, allowing for integration with other systems and automation of certain tasks. It is thorough and detailed allowing for compatibility and customizability to suit your needs.

Cons

There are a few things I would like to additionally have available in regards to reporting and the available fields to select from (given our custom fields, I can select 150 of up to 208 available options --- but there are still some nice-to-haves missing from that list.

### "Cvent: A Game-Changer for Event Professionals"

October 10, 2024

5.0

My experience with Cvent has been outstanding across various event types. 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. The platform’s versatility allows me to tailor my approach, whether I’m coordinating a massive conference or an intimate gathering. Overall, Cvent has been an invaluable tool for streamlining the entire event management process.

Pros

What I like most about Cvent is its user-friendly interface, clear knowledge base, and the support from reliable account managers who truly understand my goals. It’s made event management seamless and effective since 2009!

Cons

No major cons; it's a reliable and efficient tool.

### "Great Customer Support"

September 26, 2024

4.0

My overall experience with CVENT is pretty good. We use this platform regularly as we conduct many events in a year. I do not feel like it is very user friendly but it does have capabilities that other platforms do not have which is vital to the way we gather data during the registration process.

Pros

CVENT has a lot of capabilities that other platforms do not such as the ability to link questions, have sub questions and do conditional settings. The customer support is great and has always been able to find a solution to my issues.

Cons

There are often many areas you have to modify for a single final action. For example, for an event to be live, you have to have the event live, the registration active AND the admission types active. Some of the design features are very limited and modifying things like images can be very challenging. We often have repeat business and are finding that when we copy an event, there are a lot of hidden settings that get copied over and can make the new copy a bit messy.

### "All in One Event Planning"

October 23, 2024

4.0

Pros

Cvent event management made it easier for us to organize our events in one platform. The ready-to-use templates and flexibility to host small to large events is a plus! I love using the customer support live chat anytime I run into an issue. They are quick to respond!

Cons

It can be a bit time consuming on learning how to use Cvent overall, but after that everything is seamless. Not being able to login into multiple devices using one account gets tiresome when I am working offsite and my computer at work still has me logged in.

### "Event Planning Software"

June 16, 2025

5.0

My overall experience with Cvent Event management was a great experience. I was able to use the software to plan an event for a friend. The tools were user friendly and definitely helpful for promotion reasons.

Pros

I like most about the Cvent Event Management software is that it is user friendly. It allows planning to be easy and less stressful and takes care of complicating logistics.

Cons

What I like least about the Cvent Event management is that there is a wide range of tool to get familiarized with to better understand the usage of each tool.

### "Excellent Events Management Platform"

August 27, 2024

5.0

We have been using Cvent Event Management for over a decade. Throughout that time, I've shopped competitors to see if we need to go elsewhere. Time after time, Cvent has been the only platform who could meet our needs at a competitive price. Well, not just at a competitive price, but AT ALL. Overall, it's been a very positive experience. Support is super-quick and our account rep and client success manager have always been very knowledgeable and on top of things. I really don't see us ever leaving them for a different events platform at any point in the future.

Pros

It's got a TON of flexibility that will fit just about every use case. The pricing is really good compared to a lot of other platforms.

Cons

Sometimes you have to do workarounds for things that should just be normal features, such as adding images to the session descriptions.

Reason for choosing Cvent Event Management

The value for the price was really outstanding. The features that we use would have cost much much more with some of the other platforms or were just completely unavailable.

### "Cvent for the Win"

October 15, 2024

5.0

Overall, Cvent is a great event platform for any size or type of event.

Pros

The Cvent Event Management platform is a one-stop shop. I can accomplish everything I need, from sourcing, budgets, to attendee registration/experience.

Cons

Cvent tends to acquire other platforms instead of building within, this can cause glitches and bugs.

September 30, 2024

After using a system that is 30 yrs old, Cvent has made my life so much easier! I never want to use another system again! Everything we need is right here.

Pros

EVERYTHING. I absolutely love this system. Easy to use, easy to learn, everything needed for an event is in one place.

Cons

Need more training and improvements on abstract manager. Need a way to score the submission by a reviewer.

### "A Cvent Platform review"

September 9, 2024

5.0

I have been using Cvent since 2014 and can say that I have had a great experience over the past 10 years and have seen so many new updates and features rolled out that make me excited to see what they can offer in the future, as well.

Pros

I like having the ability to execute an event from its inception all the way through execution and post-event using all of the Cvent platform whether it be via the Event Management platform, the mobile app, and onsite management.

Cons

The only con I would say is there is a limit to how customized you can make things at a certain point.

When I used them it was great! It was easy to set up and manage and get the reporting I required.

Pros

When I used it I loved it. It was so easy to run conferences and workshop with CVENT.

Cons

I don't really have any cons. The con for me is that my university has its own system and would not allow me to use Cvent any longer.

Pros

I like that everything is in one place and I can organize all my attendees for each event easily.

### "Cvent Event Management - System Administrator POV"

March 26, 2024

5.0

Cvent is a necessity for our business to conduct events. We have a mature Strategic Meetings Management process in place and have customized our instance of Cvent to meet our needs for notifications, approvals and checklists for planner documents so we can close out budgets.

Pros

As an administrator focused on Cvent reporting, the access to most elements of meetings is made easy with the report templates in the system. In most cases, you can mix and match different data points within a report rather than run multiple reports and append data. Any time data manipulation is involved the integrity of the data can be compromised. The ability to set some parameters prior to running the report, incorporating filters, and easily move columns makes the reporting aspect user friendly. The ability to publish reports to Access Portal also allows on-demand reporting by non Cvent-licensed users without having to ask someone else to run the report.

Cons

Some data is not accessible from the client interface of Cvent reports, such as Peak Nights as entered in the meeting request form. I also wish more data was available within the report templates in the Admin Reporting module, such as Meeting ID in the Meetings Management Notification Delivery Report. Overall it's a great product and we have a fantastic support team available to help as needed.
