Cvent Event Marketing & Management Reviews & Product Details

Cvent Event Management is an incredibly efficient platform that streamlines every aspect of event planning. Its comprehensive suite of tools meets all my business needs, from registration to reporting, saving time while improving accuracy. The intuitive interface and reliable customer support make managing events simple, professional, and highly effective every step of the way. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The downsides are the cost - it can be a pricey tool for smaller companies who may not have a large registration software budget, and the fact that the features change quite a bit meaning there can be a learning curve that's often changing when new things are implemented.

Cvent is our go-to platform for complex corporate events, especially for clients in pharma and IT. The number of features is unmatched—registration, email marketing, attendee tracking, and reporting all in one place. We use it frequently across roadshows, product launches, and compliance-driven seminars. The ease of integration with our CRM and marketing tools ensures seamless data flow, and the drag-and-drop email and site builder make branding fast and professional. On Arrival gives us real-time check-in and session tracking, which clients rely on for lead qualification and post-event follow-up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While powerful, the ease of use and ease of implementation could be better. Setting up an event—even when cloning—takes time due to the number of manual configurations. The interface is dense, and new team members need training to navigate it efficiently. Customer support is responsive at times, but urgent issues can take longer than expected to resolve. For simpler events, the platform feels like overkill. Still, for high-stakes, data-heavy events, the depth of functionality justifies the effort. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like best about Cvent Event Marketing & Management is its all-in-one functionality and user-friendly interface. It streamlines every stage of the event lifecycle, from registration and email marketing to attendee tracking and post-event analytics. I especially appreciate how customizable the platform is, allowing for personalized branding and targeted communications. The integration with CRM systems and other marketing tools also makes it easier to align event data with broader marketing goals. Overall, it saves time, improves organization, and helps deliver more professional and engaging events. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While Cvent Event Marketing & Management is a powerful and comprehensive platform, one drawback is its learning curve. Some features, especially more advanced customization and reporting tools, can be complex for new users or non-technical team members. Additionally, certain updates or configuration changes may require support from Cvent’s service team, which can sometimes delay progress depending on responsiveness. That said, once you're familiar with the platform, it becomes much easier to navigate and leverage its full capabilities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I worked for a Power Five Athletic Department for 25 years before I worked for the Academic side. I had run all types of athletic events but, learning how to help our staff and faculty successfully run their conferences and workshops has been a breeze with Cvent. I never used a software platform before and I love how easy Cvent makes my job. I have been at this job for 10 months and I so happy to have this platform as a tool to make my job successful.

I don't know that I have anything to dislike. The staff is amazing and loves to help anytime you need assistance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Cvent has a robust set of tools for all of my company's events, from very simple to complex. We work from templates, to save lots of time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The cost is on the higher side, but we get what we pay for. I wish the search magnifier on the top for Events and Surveys was more user friendly. I wish we could search by event name and the event code without having to go to a different page for results, and enter search parameters once more. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When I was interviewing for a job, I found the perfect position that required cvent experience. I quickly dove into the event management e-courses (that were also free!) and learned all I could learn. When I interviewed, my skills were on par with those experienced and within a couple months, I was on the same level as my proficient colleagues. One thing I love about using event management is it's all intuitive. Everything makes sense and if you are taking too many steps to input something, you've missed a step and it's wrong. This system is designed to build confidence and present a process to your clients that is clean, easy to use and efficient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only downside I've found in my three years of using this system is not being able to have two people working simultaneously in the same build or your progress won't be saved. We often have two people responsible for different parts of our registration build which means you can't be in there together which isn't a huge deal but would be nice to have the ability to do that Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that Cvent keeps everything in one place, from registration to promotion to reporting. It makes it easier to manage events and see what’s working without juggling different tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I’d say the biggest downside is that it can feel a bit complex at first. There’s a learning curve, and some parts aren’t as intuitive as they could be. It can also get pricey depending on the features you need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I love most about Cvent is how easy it makes planning events. Everything you need is in one place—from setting up registrations to keeping attendees engaged. The tools are simple to use, and the analytics help you see what worked and what didn’t, so you can make your next event even better. It takes the stress out of event planning and makes the whole process so much smoother! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While Cvent is a powerful platform, it can feel a bit overwhelming at first because of the sheer number of features it offers. It takes some time to learn and navigate everything, especially for new users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Cvent can be used for the smallest or largest of events. The best part is the ease to the attendee to register and manage their own information within the system. It also allows for consistent communication and updates through emails as well as a webpage. I am in Cvent several times a week and enjoy utilizing the system. Their customer support is super responsive and the help portal are key in keeping us moving. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are times when the language used for features are not intuitive and I have to research what they mean. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
