"Personalized, Easy-to-Build Event Summaries That Delight Registrants"
5/5
What do you like best about Cvent Event Marketing & Management?

I love how personalized it is for our registrants. While it makes them feel seen and heard, it also answers a lot of questions that our staff would otherwise have to field. It's also easy to build, with a lot of they key features built in. It also minimizes what we have to email every day by providing daily and session summaries. It's just been a great addition to our events. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cvent Event Marketing & Management?

I would love more flexibility in the overall design. The ability to change how things are formatted, plus rigidity in what areas have what colors, makes it hard. I'd love to add more panache to the simple design. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"One-Stop Solution for Managing Event Needs!"
5/5
What do you like best about Cvent Event Marketing & Management?

We have delved deeper into Cvent capabilities - including customizing communications and follow up for session attendees/non-attendees. We are able to tailor our messaging not just at the event level - but also at the individual session level, which is helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cvent Event Marketing & Management?

As we utilize sessions within events more, it would be useful to be able to display attendees by session - not just by event. That way, guests can see who is attending each sub event and use that info to decide their own attendance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Using for 3 years Now"
5/5
What do you like best about Cvent Event Marketing & Management?

One of the newer things I like about Cvent Event Marketing & Management is the continued innovation around AI and workflow improvements. Features like CventIQ help streamline tasks such as writing event content and generating session summaries, which saves time for planners. I also appreciate the new navigation updates that make the platform easier to move through, along with tools like bulk session tagging that simplify managing large agendas. Enhancements like Cvent Essentials also make it easier to scale smaller events while maintaining a consistent experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cvent Event Marketing & Management?

One area where Cvent Event Marketing & Management could improve is simplifying the user experience. While the platform is very powerful, the number of features can make it complex for new users and sometimes requires a steep learning curve. Additional onboarding guidance and simplified workflows would help teams get up to speed faster. I would also like to see more flexibility in page design and formatting, as well as better collaboration capabilities so multiple team members can work in the same event build simultaneously.

What do you dislike about Cvent Event Marketing & Management?

The lack of responsive design for event websites. The disparate design across the platform for similar features e.g., email designers. The Lazer focus on AI, vs working through core functionality fixes and improvements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Efficient but Needs Better Onboarding Support"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Cvent Event Marketing & Management?

I like the efficiency in end-to-end event management with Cvent Event Marketing & Management. Juggling a ton of projects makes anything that streamlines a big help, and being able to use templates for recurring events and see reports easily is so helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cvent Event Marketing & Management?

User friendliness and onboarding support. We had three new team members join this year and the onboarding and learnings provided by Cvent were awful. I still need to do everything for onboarding and teaching new users because the support team is not helpful with onboarding. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Incredibly Capable Yet Easy to Use, with Top-Notch CVENT Support"
5/5
What do you like best about Cvent Event Marketing & Management?

Easy of use. The web design portions are incredibly capable and yet also simple to design. And if you have any issues customer services is only a click away. I manage a lot of products for my organization and the staff I deal with at CVENT are all top notch in comparison. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cvent Event Marketing & Management?

While the products are very easy to use, the sales model are complex and change often. They also punish success since everything is based on numbers of registrants, attendees and so forth. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Cvent’s All-in-One Event Platform That Keeps Getting Better"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Cvent Event Marketing & Management?

I enjoy cvent and its many aspects to be able to support a single event using only 1 software. I feel like Cvent has evolved and expanded greatly to support the clients needs so we provide the best event services and experience to all. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cvent Event Marketing & Management?
