## Whova Reviews
  ### 1. Great Conference Platform built around Connecting People

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Christine R. | Instructional Designer, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 22, 2025

**What do you like best about Whova?**

Whova was a great platform for our conference. As a speaker and participant, whova's features made it easy to connect with participants and other attendees, as well as promote my session and provide handouts.

**What do you dislike about Whova?**

Some things were a little hard to find, like how to add a copresenter, figuring out uploading handouts, and finding the social promotion features. However, once I did locate them, they were easy to use.

**What problems is Whova solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Whova elevated the conference experience by providing easy ways to connect and participate before, during and after the conference. Networking was easy and fun, and I made more contacts at this conference than any other conference before.

**Official Response from Whova G2:**

> Hi Christine! We’re glad you had a great experience connecting with other attendees at your event! We have a lot of features, for help on locating them, we recommend checking out our guides: https://whova.com/pages/whova-guides/ where we have resources for app users, exhibitors and attendees! Also, you can always reach out to our support team or organizer directly for more specific questions! 


  ### 2. Easy Access

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Government Administration | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 27, 2025

**What do you like best about Whova?**

Easy access to agenda sessions, organizing my own agenda sessions, notifications of meet-ups, engaging with attendees, and being able to connect with them through various social media platforms.  Real-time updates are handy, and the digital version of the event schedule was also handy to have in the palm of my hand instead of lugging around a heavy notebook with paper form.  Can take notes under each session, this is helpful.    All the resources you need for a successful event are at the palm of your hand, or on your laptop accessible anywhere.  I didn't have any problems downloading this application to my phone or laptop.

**What do you dislike about Whova?**

I didn't find any downside to this application.

**What problems is Whova solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Not having to print-out a lot of pages for the event schedule beforehand.

  ### 3. Innovative Matching and Fun Leaderboard Features

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jessica H. | Program Manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 11, 2025

**What do you like best about Whova?**

The different ways the app finds people you have similar interests with and has a leadership board.

**What do you dislike about Whova?**

Many it sends to many notifications everytime you do something on the app.

**What problems is Whova solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Finding the right people to connect with for the work you do.

  ### 4. Staying Informed Throughout Conference

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Judy I. | Technical Writer, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 15, 2025

**What do you like best about Whova?**

I like the immediacy of the Whova app during my conference. When a time shifts forward or backward, organizers can push out messages to attendees alerting them. This actually happened at our Annual Business Meeting. Early schedules said our Service Awards dinner would begin at 6 p.m., but it was shifted to 6:30 p.m. and a cocktail reception in a different location was scheduled from 6-6:30 p.m.

**What do you dislike about Whova?**

There is nothing that I dislike per se. I found the inability to clear the notification bubbles a little annoying, but not disruptive to the performance of the app.

**What problems is Whova solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It is an excellent conduit for communication that is readily updated.

  ### 5. Practical and Accessible, but Still Forming an Opinion

**Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Civic & Social Organization | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 17, 2026

**What do you like best about Whova?**

The practicality and the accessibility of the app.

**What do you dislike about Whova?**

I do not know, I haven't have time to think about this.

**What problems is Whova solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It has helped me to organize my activities in conferences.

  ### 6. Whova provides great organization and functionality to optimize the user experience.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Media Production | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 17, 2025

**What do you like best about Whova?**

I love how the whova app is very well organized, making it easy to navigate and find what I'm looking for. There are so many features the app offers that allow users to interact with information and other users on the app. From creating group messages, to sharing photos, or staying up to date on posts by the event organizers, and much more, being able to have one app that can do it all makes the experience more convenient and enjoyable for users. Being able to use the whova app consistently leading up to the event made me better informed and more well prepared for it.

**What do you dislike about Whova?**

There's not much that I really disliked about whova, as it was always working reliably for me. Maybe certain elements about the layout could be improved, but I don't think there's anything wrong with it now. I really liked the app overall, and any improvements would just make it even better.

**What problems is Whova solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I'm not in charge of the event in anyway, but I would imagine whova solves the issue of needing multiple apps to coordinate messaging, event information/planning, and other aspects, by providing the features to do all of it on the same app. This makes a more convenient and enjoyable experience for users.

  ### 7. Whova is an engaging and user-friendly platform that's perfect for managing event.

**Reviewed by:** Noor Azizah Binti  A. | Coordinator, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**What do you like best about Whova?**

I love how easy it is to connect with other attendees, access event resources, and stay updated with real-time announcements all in one place.

**What do you dislike about Whova?**

Occasionally, the interface can feel a bit cluttered, and some notifications can be overwhelming if not managed properly.

**What problems is Whova solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Occasionally, the interface can feel a bit cluttered, and some notifications can be overwhelming if not managed properly. It would be great to have more customizable notification settings and a cleaner interface for easier navigation during busy events.

  ### 8. All-in-One Solution for Effortless Conference Management

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Cherished T. | Teacher, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jessica M. | Migrant Advocate, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 30, 2024

**What do you like best about Whova?**

Agenda and adding personal items to it while using it. Connecting with others, the convenience of it.

**What do you dislike about Whova?**

How it is different on desktop to cell phone. For example on desktop I can see everything on cell phone items missing like the entire name of room and #. I can add for class to link to my calendar on desk top not on cell phone when registering. When I go to my agenda on cell phone I can only read part of where I needed to go, on my calendar I can read the entire name of the room and #. Little things like that.that could be refined to stay 100% on the App.

**What problems is Whova solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Registering ahead of time for sessions and having it all digital . Being able to read all the details of the session.

  ### 11. Sport Social work symposium

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jay M. | Counselor, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 07, 2025

  ### 12. Whova for School Nurse Conference

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Hospital & Health Care | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 18, 2025

**What do you like best about Whova?**

The best things that I liked about Whova was the ease of use.  Scanning attendees in to conference via QR codes was a breeze. Having the full agenda and my agenda at my fingertips was perfect for knowing when and where to go. Uploading photos was super easy and instant sharing with colleagues was fun! Having the ability to connect with attendees that I never would have met or known otherwise was certainly a bonus.
Thank you so such a wonderful first time experience with Whova!

**What do you dislike about Whova?**

the downside of Whova would probably be from the Speaker side .... it must have been off-putting to see so many people on their phones while they were presenting important topics. Their only hope was that they all were listening and engaged. 
In today's  forward, fast-moving digital  age, we are always trying to be mindful of how much screen time and phone use throughout the day, and here we were... Scrolling away!

**What problems is Whova solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Paper usage!!! As the presentations were uploaded to the speaker sites.
Time to register was saved and all info was already inputted.

  ### 13. Intuitive UI and Helpful Agenda Enhance the Experience

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Research | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 12, 2025

**What do you like best about Whova?**

the UI provides ease of use. The agenda is very helpful.

**What do you dislike about Whova?**

it doesnt show the schedule of my presentation. Every time I want to check research abstract or paper or other presenters I have to navigate to a different application. A small summary or abstract of the paper can be helpful.

**What problems is Whova solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Communicating with the event members is easy and the chat of this app is useful in achieving that.

  ### 14. Easy to access and interact with others

  ### 18. Make your conference accessible to all

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Becky K. | Kids Sundays, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 18, 2025

**What do you like best about Whova?**

As a first time conference attender, I was able to get to know the conference, where to go and meet others before I arrived.

**What do you dislike about Whova?**

lots of notifications - I figured out how to turn it off, but it was intense for a few days

**What problems is Whova solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I was able to choose my break out sessions, plan my days and get to know others at the conference easily. I do think that the event planners could have used a more accurate person count for each session, and that being able to sign up for more than one session at a time might have hindered their planning and room placement. I loved being able to open the map and see exactly where to go next.

  ### 19. One-stop shopping to improve large-scale event logistics and attendee engagement

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Carrie W. | Marketing Manager, ABM, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Kristin D. | Deputy Division Manager, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 15, 2025

**What do you like best about Whova?**

I like the "My Agenda" feature so I can plan my sessions ahead of time

**What do you dislike about Whova?**

Too many message notifications from conversations that I wasn't interested in. It would be great if the "my agenda" feature could open a pin on apple maps so I can get walking directions to my next meeting. I got spoiled by the Disney app that helped me navigate the park on foot more efficiently.

**What problems is Whova solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Planning and navigating a large company event. It helps the attendees find what they need to know when they need to know it

  ### 21. Whova at NMEA 2025

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Maritime | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 06, 2024

**What do you like best about Whova?**

It is fairly easy to use, the agenda is easy to find, and you can separate your personal agenda from the overall agenda. People also upload and tag photos on it. Messaging colleagues is also easy. You could also access changes to the program easily, but it might be nice if those changes showed up on your agenda, and not in the community area. I missed a talk because of this.

**What do you dislike about Whova?**

The program offers more details regarding presentations and shows the lightning talks as 15 minute talks, clustered in one area, this was difficult to see on the app.

**What problems is Whova solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Notifying people of meeting times for committies ( I was on the auction and fundraising committee) was very easy. Finding meeting times was also easy.

**What do you like best about Whova?**

The app was simple to use, easy to access, but more importantly has a number of key features and information to allow you to get the best from the event that you attend.

**What do you dislike about Whova?**

Consider improving the note-taking experience during sessions, as it wasn’t always easy to add comments—particularly when attaching photos, which occasionally caused text to be lost.

**What problems is Whova solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Help to get the best from conference events.

  ### 37. Harm Reduction Conference Wisconsin

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Heather K. | Programs Manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 22, 2025

**What do you like best about Whova?**

The agenda was easy to locate and utilize throughout the conference.

**What do you dislike about Whova?**

The map of the layout was a bit difficult to read

  ### 38. Innovative App for Conferences

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Anupriya G. | Physician, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 01, 2025

**What do you like best about Whova?**

I thought that Whova provided a lot of different options for conference goers. You could download slides, see the agenda, and even complete your feedback forms in real time. It also offers the option of building community though various chat groups and community boards.

**What do you dislike about Whova?**

I thought the homepage was a little overwhelming for those that are not familiar with technology. I had no issue with it, but I overheard many older patrons that voiced this.

**What problems is Whova solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Not applicable.

  ### 39. I was able to connect to quite a bit of people

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Eesa A. | Principal Consultant, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 18, 2025

**What do you like best about Whova?**

There was a lot of thoughtful fuctionality built in

**What do you dislike about Whova?**

Some things were hard to find and limiting. We wanted attendees to know about a post conference pub crawl with an itinerary, but we couldn't figure how to blast it out to the entire conference. It was also a maze to find the event among all the community posts. It also seemed like it was limited to 50 attendee invites.

**What problems is Whova solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I like not having to carry around a paper agenda and I like getting reminded of talks, events, and locations

  ### 40. An app with many functionalities, enabling leveraging the event experience

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jurg G. | General Counsel, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 18, 2025

**What do you like best about Whova?**

Easy to use, clear badges for new information

**What do you dislike about Whova?**

When I put in my interests, I was told that there was a new member sharing my interests... only that was myself

**What problems is Whova solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Full register of even attendees, presentation slides downloadable, ability to plan off-site get-togethers

  ### 41. A Useful App for Conference Attendees

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jonathan F. | conference attendee, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 25, 2025

**What do you like best about Whova?**

Whova provides up-to-the-minute updates of events at conferences.  
Attendees can view the full schedule of all events and create a personalized schedule for sessions they plan to attend.  The onboard site map displays event locations.  Attendees can send messages to each other and develop meetups and networking opportunities.  The app is easy to use and packed with useful information.

**What do you dislike about Whova?**

I did not find any problems with Whova.  It worked smoothly for me and was a helpful resource in navigating the numerous events at a busy national conference.

**What problems is Whova solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Whova helped me to keep track of the times and locations of the conference sessions I planned to attend.
Whova also allowed me to access handouts from conference lectures and communicate with attendees and presenters.

  ### 42. Whova amped up engagement at the WIOA Conference!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Leah I. | Educational Specialist, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 12, 2024

**What do you like best about Whova?**

I received the usual reminders about the upcoming conference and did not pay much attention - then I got the invitation to download the Whova app - and I was taken engaged right away! Once I created my profile, I was able to navigate around and find places to upload suggestions for local restaurants and hangouts for conference attendees from out of town. I was able to look through suggestions on engaging, list my contact information, review the people that would be attending the conference, and group myself according to what would bring value to my experience. 
I have to say, being first on the leaderboard was a rush! I knew once more people engaged it wouldn't last, but I enjoyed the competition! It was fun to see who the real competitive people were - lol! It was really useful to know in advance who was attending so I could make sure to catch them in person. Being able to send a quick "hello" through the app made it possible to do so because they were looking for me as well. 
Being able to create my own personal agenda and NOT have to keep up with a hard copy - that was wonderful! The shuffling of books, papers, and materials has always distracted me but this way all I had to keep up with was my phone. That was worth it by itself! 
It was nice to be able to exchange contact information through the app because I did not get to speak to everyone and it gave me a chance to reach out to them anyway. Plus, when I got back to my office I didn't have to figure out which card went with which person because the app showed me their face. I am terrible with remembering faces with names and this was better than a cheat sheet! 
Being able to set meet-ups and giving people the anonymity to decide if they were interested helped similar interests find each other. 
The lost and found, the photos, logistics!!! Oh my! There was nothing bad about it. The convenience, the organization, the networking, the ability to disperse prizes - the ease of use and understanding - probably made it one of the best conferences I have attended (and I have attended 100's). I got so much more from the experience because I did not have to concern myself with the nuts and bolts of the conference. I set my own agenda, created my own relevant connections, and kept up with contacts afterward. I have already suggested it to several colleagues and will definitely be using it if I ever organize a conference myself! 

Thank you for this innovation!! I see it changing the face of networking and conferences all around!

**What do you dislike about Whova?**

The only down side I can see is that people stayed so engaged with the app they may not have been paying as much attention to the presenters! Good thing the app had places to ask questions from each session so people had to engage!

Maybe fewer emails and texts, but really, I didn't feel spammed as most of these type things usually do. Keep the emails and texts specifically relevant based on what the attendee engages with and you will hear zero complaints from me!!

I had to really get ticky to find these "dislikes" because they both have upsides to the downsides!

**What problems is Whova solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Registration, number of attendees and inventory count, organization, material overload, networking, logistical issues. It benefits me because I am able to focus my attention on the conference at hand and not "where is the bathroom" type stuff. It helps me keep up with everything because I am going to keep up with my phone anyway.

  ### 43. Whova is easy and effective!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Beth W. | Co-Owner, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 31, 2023

**What do you like best about Whova?**

Whova is easy to set up and allows you to store all the information you want from the event in one place, pre-promote your booth and to communicate and follow up with prospective clients before, during and after the show.

**What do you dislike about Whova?**

While setting up my profile, you had to save way down at the bottom. A couple of times, I had to click over to something else and lost my work in the middle of my input. Also, I had to change the sizes on my marketing materials and images to be able to upload. But once, I got this all done, it was all there for prospects. One other thing was you can only do one promotion which is different than in the past.

**What problems is Whova solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It helps us capture the contact info from prospects and to start interacting immediately. It also allows you to make notes on the spot so you don't forget who you spoke to about what. This allows you to follow up efficiently and effectively.

  ### 44. Intuitive and Connected

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Education Management | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 18, 2025

**What do you like best about Whova?**

The application is easy to use and provides ample capabilities that are relevant to a conference experience.  (1) You can easily view the agenda and create your own schedule.  (2) Interaction with attendees creates a deeper sense of connections.  (3) The gamification creates fun competition, if you're into that sort of activity.

**What do you dislike about Whova?**

Honestly, I don't have any dislikes with the application.

**What problems is Whova solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I uses Whova as an attendee, this benefits me by assisting with event agenda, attendees, and creating new connections.

  ### 45. Make running, promoting, and engagement with your event easy!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Glenn E. | Public Speaker and Transformational Coach, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 25, 2025

**What do you like best about Whova?**

Frist of all, the app was very easy to use and interact with. The Whova app allowed me to see the attendance building for my event, provided a breakdown of the attendee occupation and location, and promptly gave me event updates or changes to meeting rooms. Whova also provided a space for audience engagement through contests, a space to post photos, and meet-ups.

**What do you dislike about Whova?**

So far, I can't think of anything that I didn't like about the app.

**What problems is Whova solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The Whova app consolidated all event communication in a single space making updates, audience interaction, and preparation simple and stress free.

**What do you like best about Whova?**

Dynamic, easy and intuitive application.

  ### 49. My experience with whova was amazing.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** John C. | Teacher, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

  ### 50. Best Networking App for Any Event

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Rey O. | Founder and Chief Innovation Strategist, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 21, 2025

**What do you like best about Whova?**

One thing that was the best about the app was how quick it was to make connections and find people when you have a quick social get-together. For instance, I was talking with someone outside of one of the rooms, his coworkers showed up and interrupted our conversation, but you could tell he still wanted to talk. So I looked at his name tag and did an attendee search and found him. Sent him a direct message and we continued the conversation over the messages tab throughout the week. Also, I did this with everyone I met. It was really quick to find someone and continue on a conversation beyond face-to-face.

**What do you dislike about Whova?**

The notifications got confusing because they were all piled into one notification icon. It would be better to split the notifications as to the ones that come from your messages vs. the ones that come from specific channels. I couldn't keep up with the notifications throughout the event.

Maybe have it so that the notification that is tied to something you said is clickable and it takes you to the actual reply of your comment rather than the comments in general where I'd have to go through all of the comments just to find that one reply.

**What problems is Whova solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It would be great to have a feature where anyone that I "bookmarked" and if I had messaged them and they responded, I should be able to export their info so I can contact them after the event.
