"Yapp Made Our Conference a Thriving Digital Community"
5/5
What do you like best about Yapp?

Yapp was great at allowing us to build a true digital community during our conference. It was great to be able to engage our audience and have a place to organically grow their connections with one another. Yapp allowed us to be more flexible In how we ran our events, as It made It so that we weren't held to schedules that were printed weeks In advance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Yapp?

While there was no real downside of using Yapp, one Improvement I'd make would be to the comment management system. There were times I wanted to be able to directly respond to someone without posting their questions to our wall. Additionally, I'd like a way to direct people to see where questions had been previously answered. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great for Keeping Events Organized and Attendees Informed"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Yapp?

It was a great way to keep our event organized and to keep attendees easily informed throughout. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Yapp?

It would be great if the formatting were a bit different. For example, I’d like to have a Day 1 tab and be able to add subsections within that tab, instead of relying on a more crowded detailed schedule tab. It would also be nice to see how many users added a particular session to their detailed schedule in the analytics section. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Game-Changing Push Notifications and Live Updates"
5/5
What do you like best about Yapp?

I love the overall responsiveness of the app- push notifications and live updates are an absolute game changer for our conference! Students and advisors reported that because of the app, they knew where to go and when to be there, and they loved that they could use it via a mobile browser rather than downloading it (though those that downloaded it reported better functionality of the push notifications).

Yapp was very easy to get my information into, and the help guides are well-written and easy to follow. We have a wide range of tech savvyness on my team, and everybody was able to navigate the app building without problem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Yapp?

The only friction points I had with Yapp are the inability to send announcements via desktop and the lack of a dedicated "Maps" tab. It would be nice to have one more layer of scheduling in the Multi-Track, but our conferences are unique in that each breakout session has sub-sessions, too. Otherwise, no complaints!

"Intuitive, Affordable, and Reliable Event App for Our Symposium"
5/5
What do you like best about Yapp?

We used the Yapp app for our 2026 Symposium, an annual conference for early learning leaders, and it was a great fit for our needs. The platform is intuitive and very easy to use, both from an organizer’s perspective and for our attendees. Yapp’s interface is clean and straightforward, making it simple to upload schedules, speaker information, and important updates without needing advanced technical skills. Our attendees found it user-friendly and appreciated having all conference details in one accessible place. The app is fairly basic in terms of features, but that simplicity actually worked in its favor for our event. It allowed us to communicate clearly and efficiently without overwhelming users with unnecessary complexity. Another major advantage is affordability. For an annual conference like ours, staying within budget is always a priority, and Yapp provided a cost-effective solution without sacrificing functionality.

Overall, Yapp was a reliable, practical choice for our 2026 Symposium, and we plan to use it again for next year's event. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Yapp?

While Yapp worked well for our basic needs, and was easy to implement, its customization options are quite limited. We would have appreciated more control over certain features. For example, there was no way to restrict the “Announcements” page so that only our team could post. Since we were already using a separate social feed for attendee interaction, it would have been ideal to keep the Announcements section exclusively for official event communication while still allowing participants to engage elsewhere.

There were also limitations within the Schedule and Track Schedule features. Information could not be duplicated or linked between the two, which meant entering the same details multiple times. This added extra administrative work and increased the potential for inconsistencies.

Additionally, it would have been helpful if the app required attendees to create a profile that appeared on the Attendees page. Having a built-in requirement for profile completion would have strengthened networking opportunities and made the attendee directory more useful.

Overall, while Yapp is user-friendly and affordable, expanded customization and administrative controls would significantly enhance the experience for conference organizers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"So Easy to Use—Flexible Speaker Updates Even After Publishing"
5/5
What do you like best about Yapp?

So easy to use. Easy to add speakers, update on the fly and add whatever I need after publishing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Yapp?

The add speaker feature is really the best way to add preloaded speakers. I like it that I have the option to add speakers on the fly, but the workflow when initially adding speakers to a session should have a pop-up when adding them that suggests adding the speakers to speaker list first, then adding to session. Or options for adding pre-loaded speakers or adding new speakers. I ran into a versioning issue at this conference where I had preloaded speakers then forgot how to get them attached to the session.

"User-Friendly UI with Reliable Retroactive Updates"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Yapp?

The UI is user-friendly, and any updates I make retroactively are reflected in the app consistently and reliably. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Yapp?

I wish we could schedule notifications on the desktop as well, instead of having that option only on mobile. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Yapp Outshines Cvent: Easy, Customizable, and Cost-Effective"
4/5
What do you like best about Yapp?

It was extremely easy to learn, use, and customize. I use Cvent for a meeting app for a different event we host, and I would say Yapp is superior to it in 80% of ways, and it's a fraction of the cost. I love the ability to create new pages with different formats (i.e. I wanted to create a staff page, so I created a brand new page in the format of 'people' and it allowed staff to be listed like speakers. Believe it or not - it's not possible on Cvent). There was not much of a learning curve for this - unlike Cvent. It has taken me three years to be somewhat comfortable with Cvent and even still, I often have to ask for help from their customer support time. We have two years left on our Cvent contract but once it is done, I plan to switch to Yapp for all of our meeting app needs. It was also super easy for attendees to access it unlike Cvent's verification codes which are very unreliable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Yapp?

I would like to be able to upload a spreadsheet of notifications/announcements to the website ahead of time. I had to do it manually on the app on my phone. I would want to be able to do polls for specific sessions and have the ability to schedule polls. The polling feature needs a lot of development. And lastly - the biggest thing I would need from Yapp in order for it to truly be able to be better than Cvent would be to develop surveys that are unique to users. If an attendee takes a survey for a session they attended, I would need to be able to see on the backend who did it and what they said. It's an important part of our CEU credit process and it's the biggest thing that is lacking from Yapp. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Strong Event Pages and Support, but Lacks AI and Automation"
3.5/5
What do you like best about Yapp?

I like the multi-track feature, the social feeds, and the unlimited pages. Having that many places to feature event info is really helpful. The interface is clunky, but still fairly user-friendly for many users. Integrations could use some work, but the CSV import is cromulent. Performance and automatic updates work well for our use case. Pricing is reasonable for the amount of features you receive. Support is responsive and provides great information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Yapp?

AI and intelligence are non-existent, and even simple use cases for AI are unused. No automated features present. Other useful and helpful features for event apps are non existent Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Phenomenal Ease of Use for Users and Admins"
5/5
What do you like best about Yapp?

The ease of use is phenomenal, both from a user perspective and from an admin perspective. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Yapp?

The limited functionality - I wish there was a "pro" setting, where you could embed web pages, insert html content, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
