Fourwaves is the most intuitive, easy-to-use event platform I have worked with. Getting set up was a breeze, as was setting up payments and forms for registrations and submissions. It provides a great framework to start with, and I love the flexibility to modify and make their platform work for a wide range of events. I also have received very helpful support from their team. Using past events as templates is also a great function to make the set-up process for annual events quick and easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are steep increases in cost for more advanced features. I would consider paying for these features for a more complex event, where you would like everything to be done in the same site. I like how you can choose which add-ons you need so that you have more flexible pricing options, rather than having to choose an expensive package from the start. Their staff were also very helpful when I had questions about pricing options and what we would need for our organization's events. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Fourwaves provided a one-stop shop for all our conference needs. It offered a website to advertise the conference, manage abstract submissions and Scientific Committee reviews, handle conference registrations and refunds, and build and host the conference program. Overall, it was intuitive to use and felt user-friendly for conference attendees. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It takes a wee bit of time to set up the conference webpage and make sure all the information is aligned, especially when it comes to dates and times. At times, it can also be a bit confusing to organize abstracts by type and review status, but with a bit of support, it was easy enough to figure out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Our team has been thoroughly impressed with FourWaves. The platform’s well‑organized abstract management, intuitive peer‑review workflow, and seamless congress‑wide coordination have significantly elevated our planning process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The software is intuitive to navigate, and the built-in video guidance plus the chatbot/support cover most of the tasks you’re likely to want to accomplish. Even knowing that other platforms offer similar features, the one thing I’d add to my wish list is a short setup video with practical tips to help ensure the information collected flows smoothly through each stage of the process. Many parts of the system already align naturally to guide you toward gathering the right information, and since I’m still in my first year using the platform, I expect some of this will become even clearer with continued use.

The platform is very user-friendly and easy for customers to use. Customer service has also been exceptional, especially when creating pages. I do not know the pricing as I am not involved in that aspect but I can imagine the value is immeasurable to what we were previously using. The product and service is fantastic.

I don’t have anything I dislike so far. I’ve only just started using it, so I’m still getting used to all of its functionality and learning how everything works. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are limits to the number of summary submissions, but it is surely related to the package we have. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing - I'm happy with what they provide! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really appreciate how Fourwaves makes organizing our university-wide research showcase so easy. With its attractive, intuitive interface, it caters well to submitters, judges, admins, and attendees. It’s clear that the designers have a deep understanding of what it takes to put on a research conference, especially with a focus on poster sessions. Admins and judges find the abstract submission management straightforward and efficient. It's one of the most intuitive pieces of software I've ever interacted with, and the customer support team is absolutely incredible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The one thing that I wish Fourwaves allowed us to do is have multiple prizes or judging tracks within the system. Not intuitive to do that as an admin, but they have excellent customer support and they told us that if we reach out ahead of time, they're happy to work with us for a solution.

The first thing that stands out for me is how [sensitive content hidden] and his team are always eager to help us get the best out of our event using their Fourwaves platform. It is easy to communicate with this small yet dynamic and engaging team, and they respond to our questions quickly and effectively. Fourwaves itself is user-friendly and allows anyone to build a customized platform for their event with a professionnal look. The many options available allow us to create different pages for applications, attendance, and our sponsors, so several aspects of the event's organization can be centralized into Fourwaves. Each one of them can be customized and updated in a matter of minutes, which makes this platform a fantastic tool for people with limited experience in coding and website management who want to plan medium to large-scale events.

I believe it would be helpful to showcase all the platform's functionnalities via email to the page managers or via pop-ups on the screen, as I still discover new ones from time to time that would have helped me beforehand. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It would be nice if there was a little more freedom with some customizations on forms and the website, but they are minor issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
