Tech Challenged But Event Succeeded With Clear Event

PROS

Clear Event offers a complete event management system and full support team to help us middle-aged, tech challenged users cross over into the new world. We promote a mid-sized event (500-600 ppl) and this app has helped to facilitate efficiency and accountability. I lost my tech person and have had to learn and do many of the back-end items myself. This has placed me in multiple contacts with their customer support and their service has been outstanding. They have went above and beyond to understand my event, my goals and teach me how to make it a reality within the platform.

CONS

If there is anything negative I would say is to keep in mind users like me who do not use tech or are in constant on the job learning mode. Think about the ease of finding subject matter. I think this can be achieved by involving non frequent tech people in your overview videos to understand how we may think which is quite different then the tech brain until we understand it. Otherwise, every time we use the app we feel like we have to relearn or learn the processes.

Reasons for switching to ClearEvent

Clear Event was brought to me as a more complete solution

Vendor Response

Hi Kenneth! Thanks so much for taking the time to share your insightful review on the ClearEvent management platform! We're thrilled to hear that our system and dedicated support team were instrumental in ensuring the success of your event, especially during challenging times. Your feedback about catering to users who might be less tech-savvy is invaluable. We're constantly striving to make our platform user-friendly for everyone, and we'll definitely consider your suggestion about involving non-frequent tech users in our overview videos. Our ultimate goal is to make ClearEvent intuitive for all, and we appreciate your perspective on how we can improve. Again, thank you for choosing ClearEvent and for your constructive feedback. We're committed to supporting and guiding you through all your future events. Warm regards

PROS

It's great to be able to coordinate and assign tasks to volunteers from one place - it's extremely useful especially for events that rely heavily on volunteer help.

Very affordable and great for educational institutes who have corporate events!

Considering we are an educational institution who offers unique events to our corporate community to raise scholarships, ClearEvent has been the best product hands down to save money and get the important event management tools needed.

PROS

It's great for keeping all your information in one place. Very affordable considering all the options available. They are always fast to respond and consider all requests provided to them. Highly recommend considering ClearEvent.

CONS

We are hoping there will be a check-in process for registrants soon.

Reason for choosing ClearEvent

Pricing, the quality of customer service and the features.

Reasons for switching to ClearEvent

They stopped offering a check-in option without warning their customers. They also started doing less for event management and more for marketing offerings.

Parade Software

I'm really happy with Clear Event and the abilities it gives me to be detailed and specific in my process. Our application was redundant and long. Using Clear Event has given me the opportunity to clean it up, and make the registration easy and efficient for our clientele. I appreciate the quick help when I get stuck, they are right there to walk me through a problem in no time.

PROS

We have yet to go live, but the process of preparing my registration forms and working on the things that must be signed by the applicant in this digital system has been pretty easy. The support is wonderful, attentive and quick to help. I am confident that this will be the best experience we have ever had taking applications for our parade, handling the funds and organizing the lineup.

CONS

Learning new software is hard. I have picked it up but there are always frustrations at the bottom of the learning curve... sometimes I don't know what it is I'm looking at, or what each feature really does. The information is on the site, I just have to find it and if I can't, I ask and it doesn't take long for the answer to come.

Reason for choosing ClearEvent

After Zoho, we had a registration online that was using Woo Commerce on our website. It was too limited in what it could do and the person who had set it up was not responsive. The other product we considered, I can't remember the name, was unable to give us the level of customization that Clear Event does and it was more money. That is basically why we went with Clear Event, I'm so glad we did.

Reasons for switching to ClearEvent

Zoho was way more detailed than we needed and NOT user friendly. We had to hire a specialist to use it and she was the only person who could. I plan to teach others to use Clear Event because that's good business. Every business should always have a succession plan, and Zoho was not part of ours.

Vendor Response

Hey Brooke! We're thrilled by your awesome ClearEvent review! Big thanks for sharing your experience, it means a lot! We're excited to hear that you've found our platform user-friendly and that it's helping you streamline your parade registration process. It's fantastic that our support team has been able to assist you promptly and attentively whenever you need help. We pride ourselves on our customer service, so it's great to know we're hitting the mark. We know learning new software can be tough, but we're here for you anytime you need guidance.

Great product, phenomenal support

Our onboarding was a breeze. The combination of help/support docs plus the support team's patience with us made getting up and running super easy.

PROS

Out of the box we're able to manage multiple events without a hitch. The software does everything we need, and to be honest we haven't even had the time to explore a number of features which would probably be useful to us.

CONS

The budgeting tools are in that grey area where we try to keep track of "actual" vs budgeted, but for expenses tracking the hotels make it so convoluted that we are doing our budgeted vs actual for expenses on a separate spreadsheet. Not the fault of ClearEvent - just the way house accounts at hotels become a mish-mash of accounting.

Reason for choosing ClearEvent

Low cost, full featured and great support made it a no-brainer.

Vendor Response

Hi John! Thanks so much you for your positive and insightful review of ClearEvent. We're thrilled that our software and support team have been able to help manage your events effectively.

Most complete product I found ... and most affordable, too

The response and help from the ClearEvent teams has been PHENOMENAL. My demo was well done, they were there to quickly answer questions during the free trial, they offer you an hour onboarding training and were extremely quick to respond to messages afterwards, including jumping on an impromptu Zoom call to help me troubleshoot an issue that wasn't even ClearEvent's issue.

PROS

I had a specific list of features I needed when I started researching event-planning software, and ClearEvent was the one that checked the most boxes. In fact, there was not another option that I would have paid for, so if not for ClearEvent, I'd still be running my events as I always have.

CONS

Event layout design is the only feature missing that I'd like to see, though there are other resources available that might be better than an in-house event layout design.

Reason for choosing ClearEvent

It was the most complete service.

Best Event App for the

Prior to using ClearEvent, we utilized independent software to do what this one application provides which made it a lot easier when planning an event!

PROS

This app will walk you through what is needed to quickly launch your event, and if you have any questions, the support is bar none! They would help with any question I had and even gave me some better suggestions on what to do after I explained what I was needing. Everything you need to run an event is all in one place. There is seriously too many things I could list which are great about this software!

CONS

Probably could make the text boxes bigger on the registrations so you can see more text than the "..." with no way to extend the field (they actually fixed that in a matter of days). It would be nice to have a delete all button on the invite section in case you need to import a new list, but again, there was a work around for that. Lastly, maybe a vendor/sponsor floor plan which could be interactive.

Reason for choosing ClearEvent

We researched many companies and this one at the time seemed to fit not only our needs but budget as well. After participating in the demo they provided, it was a clear choice to use this company's product.

Reasons for switching to ClearEvent

We wanted to find one company with one application that would take care of our needs for our events.

ClearEvent is the #1 Solution to Successful Event Planning and Organization

Without a doubt, the most excellent event-planning software platform available. Hands-down, THE BEST!

PROS

Pros? Where to start? It is difficult to choose what features of this software are most impressive or impactful. I am still reeling from the level of the buildout of this software. The people behind its development have seemingly done the impossible. They thought of EVERYTHING in developing this software, and that takes superior knowledge of the event industry. And it clearly shows how much they care about the clients they partner with.This software includes everything you can imagine you would need to run and manage a successful event. The layer after layer of amazing features is like a candy store for event planners. Once fully set up, you can roll your event over year after year after year. The level of sophistication of this software is remarkable which is not to be outdone by ClearEvent's Customer Service. [SENSITIVE CONTENT] has been our contact from start to finish. He has been available every single time I have needed him to clarify or help guide us as to the best way to accomplish our event goal. Clear Event's customer support is unmatched in the industry. You just don't get this type of service anywhere. Very impressive. Consummate professionals all the way. We are so excited to be able to finally keep track of and organize our yearly Rodeo events using ClearEvent. The software is easy and FUN to use. We are the world's oldest rodeo, and now we have ClearEvent as a trusted partner to help us take our Rodeo to the next level.

CONS

Cons? Nope! Not a one! However, if I could make a wish list, I would like to see the implementation of SMS, which I believe ClearEvent may be working on—also, maybe some more functionality concerning uploading graphics, perhaps even short video clips (15 to 30 seconds).

Reason for choosing ClearEvent

ClearEvent is much more robust and cost-effective. Also, we are able to have complete control over our event without outside influence.

Vendor Response

Thanks Teri for taking the time to write such a detailed review! We're honored to be able to help you grow such a historic and meaningful event. We appreciate the feedback and will certainly use it continue to add great new features to ClearEvent to further improve your team's productivity and your attendee experience. Cheers!

You won't find a better place to get started with running events!

When I actually started researching the logistics of setting up an event web page, having registration and payment capabilities, tracking participants, organizing them into sessions, and about twenty or so other things I hadn't fully realized I'd need to do, I felt overwhelmed and doubted my ability to host my virtual event in the manner I'd hoped. Then I found software solutions that seemed great, and cost more than my whole event would bring in! When I came across ClearEvent I decided to try it because it was affordable, but expected very little from it. However, I've been pleasantly surprised at just how much it offers. And I'm able to do even more with the platform since they're customer support is so individualized!

PROS

Before I can even discuss the software, I must discuss the customer support. While working in the free trial version (and already convinced I would pay the most reasonable fee when it came do) I used the chat feature to ask a question. Within minutes, [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] had set up a web meeting where I could screen share and he could remotely demonstrate how to do everything I needed to do. Plus, he took the time to show me lots of extra features I wasn't aware of. This is unprecedented service to a new customer and priceless to an entrepreneur that is starting out, has limited resources, but still wants to run a professional event. As to the software itself, so far I'm finding it very intuitive to set up my event and there are many, many built in features that will help me manage my event successfully. I've come across a few limitations if I compare it to my wish list, but for this price structure ClearEvent is offering a ton to its customers. Plus, as my live, personalized customer support representative explained, they are quickly making additional upgrades to help clients function in these most digital times.

CONS

I haven't fully completed an event yet, so can't too much here. They are adding time zone conversion functionality which will be helpful. I would also appreciate a little more control over the design/appearance of the event page.

Reason for choosing ClearEvent

As I detailed above: price point, functionality to cover what I need, and awesome tech support.

Vendor Response

Thanks Celina! We're so happy that you found us and thanks for the kind words. We look forward to working with you to help grow your event!

Clear Event is amazing!

We host a conference with about 150 people, and in the past we did everything manually. It also used to be free, so we didn't have a payment component (except for sponsors/exhibitors). When the conference grew enough, we knew it was time to start charging for people to attend, which meant we really needed an online tool for people to register. Clear Event was incredible. From the day we found them, their customer service was amazing. They are always available to get on calls to help you get set up. And they really work with you so you understand all the features of the tool and how to use them. They also do not pressure you to buy a bunch of things you don't need for your event.

PROS

We loved the integration with Stripe for taking payments, because this was our first time charging people to attend our conference. It worked flawlessly. We also really liked the fact that you can create so many custom registration forms, because it helped us as a team make sure everyone was registered correctly. And, we thought the tool was really well designed. Running an event in an online tool will always be complex, but the Clear Event layout/UX was really good and made it about as easy as it can be.

CONS

None that I can remember! We don't really have any complaints.

Vendor Response

Chris, thanks so much for your great review! We're so happy you found the system flexible & easy to use and that you received the support you needed to be successful. We're super excited to help you continue to grow your next conference. Cheers!

CONS

Not enough clear ways to export the information I need. I have to go back and forth between the volunteer’s individual pages and the job descriptions to clarify information or get details correct. I can’t send a message to my volunteers from within the platform, I have to export their email addresses and manually email them.

Annual Event Management

PROS

Our organization hosts a $75,000 annual event, with 300 plus vendors, 100 plus volunteers and 28,000 attendees. We couldn't do it without Clear Event. We are actively using the platform for 6 months out of the year. Like that a) it easily integrates with our website/online presence b) can send messages at a scheduled time c) we can pay automatically as we go

CONS

a) would like to figure out a way to assign vendor locations automatically (or semi-automatically, just making it a part of the process) b) Our website uploads slowly for vendor registration - I'll try to make our website a little less clunky, but would love to figure out how to make referrals back and fourth between our sites more seamless.

Great

The staff is exceptional and always willing to help out, the application process seems like it has been easier for applicants, there have not been as many questions from applicants! The staff is always willing to accept opinions of the platform which is great because it shows that they want to continue to assist the users.

PROS

I love the quick responses from the customer service team, the demonstrations they send are extremely helpful. The application is quick and easy to put together. I like the idea of having online and offline payment options.

CONS

The only thing that I wish Clear Event had are a few other features to assist with the application. Such as enlarge, bold, underline and change text.

Vendor Response

Thanks for taking the time to give us your impression Daniella. We wanted to let you know the ability to enlarge, bold, underline and change text is available. Someone from our support staff will be in touch directly to show you the feature.

Very satisfied so far!

PROS

ClearEvent had the features I was looking for at a price that was affordable.

CONS

Having an interactive booth layout map where booths show as unavailable when taken would be helpful.

Clearevent Review

PROS

Clearevent is a fabulous all-inclusive tool, with great customer service. The software truly helps to keep our team organized. It's ability to process online registrations and payments has really helped us improve our engagement with event vendors and participants.

CONS

There are few things not to like about the Clearevent software. Like any new tool, it takes time to train users (both myself, colleagues and event participants). The investment is worth it however.

ClearEvent made planning our event a flawless experience!

Made planning our event a simple and very organized experience. Our event looked polished and no task fell through the cracks because everything is accounted for.

PROS

I had researched many other options before finally stumbling upon ClearEvent. Not only was it exactly what we needed but the customer service and responsiveness were top notch. Unlike most other platforms, you wait in a queue for days before getting your answers, ClearEvent responds almost immediately and the people you speak with are actually the developers with a passion for making you a success!

CONS

Can't think of one thing that I don't like about it. A few of our participants didn't want to actually have to "sign up" before accessing the portal but I'm confident that is coming shortly in a new release.

Stellar customer service

The customer service has been outstanding in response and action. We have requested changes based on our needs, and this has been taken care of promptly. Any assistance with functionality has been incredibly professional yet friendly - this really helps when learning!

PROS

We manage multiple events, and this software allows us to view, manipulate and monitor each event separately.

CONS

We are still learning the software, but any limitations have been addressed and will be implemented in the future. Our support team member has been great in assisting with any work-arounds.

Vendor Response

Thanks Emily! We're so glad you're enjoying the ClearEvent platform. We're always working to improve ClearEvent to make your experience better. Stay tuned, there's more good stuff coming soon! Cheers:)

Great product; Excellent customer service

ClearEvent helps us market our company events with ease. The system takes care of the bulk of the logistics, freeing up members on our team to focus on other aspects of the event. It's like having another employee at our disposal!

PROS

The software is easy to use for a novice-to-moderate computer user. I appreciate the support we get via chat and the help forums. The customer service is top-notch and the no. 1 reason why we continue to use this software.

CONS

Sometimes the features can be a bit overwhelming and difficult to discern which feature would be best implemented for the task at hand. Having said that, the customer support team is right there to partner with us and help us figure out the best features and the best way to use the software.

Wonderful having it all in one place!

The customer service with ClearEvent has been top notch! They have been responsive and shown a sincere interest in helping us accomplish our goals. We just recently switched to ClearEvent but so far are having a great experience! We are especially grateful for all of the features provided that are helping us run our events smoothly and with less effort!

PROS

I love the fact that Clear Event provides not only a professional registration experience for my attendees, but that it also includes software for event management (e.g. volunteer registration and job assignments, To Do lists, budgeting and more!).

CONS

It lacks a few of the features that my previous registration system had, but the pros outweigh the cons.
