Perenso Trade Show 2023
Perenso makes it easy for us to take orders at our tradeshow. We are also able to streamline negotiations within the show app, and keep track of those contributions with a wide array of reporting. We find the Perenso team to be extremely customer service focused, and they have the ability to customize the experience to the customer, listening to how we need to use it and adjusting to fit our existing business model. They clearly communicate the pros and cons to setting up the system in different ways, and keep our project on track from signing the initial contract, to the post-show wrap up. We are extremely pleased with the product and our experience working with Perenso.
PROSThe data integration is seamless and perenso provides templates for all the data we need. The support team is well versed in the system and can always answer questions on the spot. the software is very customizable, and is widely used within our industry so customers and vendors are comfortable using the software. We use it for complicated tiered and bracketed pricing structures, as well as added negotiations between vendors and retailers and they are able to understand and execute that data easily.
CONSit would be great if the app could be used on personal phones etc as well as ipads. The vast majority of our retailers use their cell phones more than sit at a desk, so the more mobile friendly the better!

The Best Trade Show System We've Used!
The technology is great. But the team is even better. Whether it is the development team, management team or on-site team, we receive a high level of customer service. Responses are almost immediate and if they cannot provide an immediate solution, they are very clear in what we should expect. I feel like we are a priority.
PROSI am most impressed with the attention Perenso gives to our specific needs. They never answer our requests with "we can't do that". They figure it out and deliver solutions. The software is intuitive and flexible. Our industry is complicated and we need are required to provide solutions to significantly different customers.
CONSTheir greatest gap was that they did not offer a mobile application that the customer could access while attending our event. That is being rectified. We just tested the new mobile app at our most recent event. There is some room for growth but it was a great first step.
Reasons for switching to Perenso Trade Show
We were with Perenso and left. After less than two years we came back. They took the time to learn about our data and build the program to suit our needs. Their understanding of our business (and data) is the reason we came back.

Hybrid Platform Is Excellent
The Perenso software is very easy to use, we have utilized it for three years now and it gets easier to use every year. We have only used one year for a hybrid show, and we were very impressed with the in-person ordering, check-in, and registration - everything went very smooth. Easy to navigate on the host side, and our vendor community loves it - says this platform is the best in our business.
CONSFor our hybrid trade shows, we still have many customers frustrated with the online ordering, it could be a little more user friendly when it comes to order entry. Easier to add product to the cart. Using the host portal, it would be nice to receive all requested changes, information, data quicker and not have to wait for it to be process/extracted from Australia.

Great first year with Perenso. Making a system switch is always nerve wracking, but it was a great experience and one we've received great feedback from our customers and vendors. The staff was a pleasure to work with and provided what we needed during our event.
PROSThe adaptability and visibility of the data for our team. Ease of use for our customers and vendors. Additionally, the ordering portal and booth ordering connected well.
CONSMobile app was not as user friendly or robust as I would have liked.

Excellent Product and Top-Notch Support
Perenso Trade Show software was exactly what we needed to get through virtual events over the last couple of years. They're hybrid event options allowed us to offer our trade shows to customers in-person and virtually as everything returned to normal. The customer service provided has been excellent for all of our events.
PROSThe Perenso Trade Show software was easy to implement and use for our internal staff, but also for our vendor community. Very little customization was required, due to all of the features already included. We're very happy with the product and would recommend it for anyone looking for an intuitive product with excellent ease of use.
CONSAny roadblocks we ran into with the software during our initial trade show were addressed, and customization was implemented to assist. We're able to accomplish all of our needs with the Perenso Trade Show software.

Easy to use products, great customer service!
While there are always setbacks to every show, our shows get better each year. The customer service is always available and the system is continuously becoming easier to use.
PROSPerenso's software is easily customizable to our current needs and software. The order taking and management programs are user-friendly for both our retailers and vendor partners, all while giving us confidence that our data is correct.
CONSThere are aspects of the system that get "hard coded" from other users that we may have not preferred or requested, it would be nice to add a little more customization to our show in terms of visibility and messaging.

The Best in the Business
Because of the Perenso system, our customers are able to attend our show and focus on building relationships, placing orders, and discovering new products with the technology working seamlessly in the background. Also, I can't say enough about the quality of the people at Perenso that support the software and work with us on site during our show. Again, they are the best in the business.
PROSWe've been using Perenso Trade Show to manage our annual show for many years. The software is versatile, feature rich, and very flexible. We routinely get positive comments from our salesmen, our customers (attendees), and our exhibitors. Maybe the best feature is that it simply works well without attracting too much attention.
CONSAs long-time users of the software, we've been able to tailor our systems to exchange data more efficiently with Perenso. We are also excited to use the new mobile app at our next show in 2023.

Simple
Each show has been successful each time. Having shows virtually is the new norm and everyone is onboard with idea, although hesitant at first but worth it in the end. The results have been amazing.
PROSThis software is simple and seamless. Perenso makes it easy from start to finish if you're an experienced user or first time user to the program.
CONSOur least would be, not being able to meet directly with our customers through the program on video/camera.
Reason for choosing Perenso Trade Show
We have worked with Perenso in the past with an in person show and loved their produc

Great team to work with!!! Very helpful assisting with vendor and customer questions. They are the brains!
PROSthe reporting features are great to look at, especially the overall attendance counts and their categories
CONSNot a Perenso issue, but some users do not receive their log info because it goes to spam, but that is not a platform issue!
