Cvent Event Management Review by User of 5+ Years
Meetings, Board Meetings, Annual Conferences, International Symposiums, Workshops, etc.
PROSCvent Event management is constantly evolving with their customers at the forefront of their changes and always keeping customer needs on their mind. The customer support is amazing. There are client service specialists on-all 24/7 and they even have an option for chatting in the Support Center if you aren't able to speak over the phone. I also love the fact that the technologies are constantly changing and staying up-to-date.
CONSI dislike the shift in focus and functionality of the new Flex event builder in comparison to Classic Events because it is less focused on advanced features and capabilities, which my team depends on, and is more focused on design and ease of use for ALL customers.

Easy to Use; professional
I have absolutely loved working with Cvent and have been a loyal customer for a decade. I highly recommend Cvent Event Management!
PROSThe Cvent Event Management Platform is so easy to use! The team at Cvent sets you up for success, training you and your team to build your own registration systems and event emails. This allows you to have full, customizable control of the product and create a seamless and branded experience for your users.
CONSThe cost is a bit higher than some other platforms, particularly if you only have limited use for the system.
Reasons for switching to Cvent Event Management
Needed a more comprehensive registration system and in-house marketing platform.

I use cvent event management daily. It's incredibly helpful for events where you need to register several attendees and collect their data.
CONSIt can be tedious at times to set up a website and makes changes.

Big, robust, and clunky
I have a love/hate relationship with Cvent. I've used several other event management tools, and can say that Cvent is the most complete of any I've tried. It is a purpose built software that serves its purpose well. However, it can be difficult to use.
PROSThere are some really nice tracking features. Unlike many other event management tools, Cvent seems to be more contact based vs. event based. This means that you can track the same people more easily through a series of events, email, and participation history. It is very robust. If you know what you are doing, you can set up an event registration with any combination of options (sessions, various attendee types and registration paths within the same event).
CONSIf you need a simple but stylish event registration, Cvent is not for you (but the price probably already told you that). They obviously recognize that the Standard registration is way to complex for the casual user and the end user interface (the person registering) looks like it was built a decade ago. To address this, Cvent has rolled out "Express" and "Flex" registration to try to simplify the process. In my opinion, these products are awful. They have tried to dumb down the software and make everything drag and drop that it is very difficult to use effectively. There is very little ability to customize the look and feel of event webpages, forms, and emails in this new system.
