Hi Everyone, I am planning four 100-150 person events and wanting to find a vendor that can do onsite badge printing and attendee check-in. I just got a quote from cvent that seems really high ($12K per city). Does anyone have any recommendations for other companies that help with event check-in/registration with badge printing?
We used Hopin at our May event and had a good experience with their badge printing. Their RSVP system not as much. @EventPlanner462 / Bizzabo might be helpful here
Thanks @EventPlanner963! Yes - Bizzabo would be a great fit for you. @EventPlanner575 I'll DM you with more info 🙂
I recommend Bizzabo as well
we use Validar and they are amazing
I use Pheedloop
I'm using WebEx Events (formerly Socio) right now and so far it has been a great experience! The event isn't until October so I can't speak to badge printing but fingers crossed that goes well!
Thank you everyone!
What virtual event platform do you all use? Has anyone ever used Goldcast? I am looking to host a half day virtual user conference in the spring. Whatever we pick must have multi track capabilities and a sponsor showcase area. We currently use Demio for webinars (very simple tool) and tried AirMeet (hated it).
Curious if anyone has done a multi-breakout, multi-session event on a platform you loved. Does that even exist? I’m managing 80 sessions over 3 days in 6 different breakouts. We decided against one platform because they couldn’t produce a solid reference for someone who had done this large of an event and there were issues with the RTMP flow. The platform we are using has some nuances, especially on the production side that aren’t the best.
So what have you used that you like?
Hi all! I am looking into new possible namebadge printing software/hardware for our smaller scale events. We typically use Bizzabo and their printers for our larger events, but haven't found a great cost friendly option we can count on for the smaller events. Please let me know if you have any great options to share - thank you!
<!here>, we're kicking off this channel to be a dedicated space to support one another as event tech continues to rapidly evolve. This post on LinkedIn inspired me to ask - are you willing to share your event tech stack with the group here? It might help inspire other members to look into new solutions, or ask for your more specific advice or opinion on tech you currently use. As a reminder, we also have the #ai-for-events channel for those interested.
Has anyone used event software other than Splash and Bizzabo for event registration, save the dates, etc.? I’ve tried them both but recently Splash’s virtual capabilities have fallen short 🫤
Hello! could someone here recommend a good and comprehensive registration tool, besides Cvent? Thank you so much in advance.
Does anyone have experience working with Stova? If so, was it positive?
Hi all. Has anyone used https://splashthat.com/ for invites / registration / etc. but used an alternative system for onsite badge printing? Their badges are pretty basic and I'm looking for something a little more high tech but want to make sure the systems are compatible. Thanks!
Folks does anyone here use Cvent for venue sourcing and would you be willing to do a quick call with moi? Thank you 🙏
hi friends - looking for badge vendors that have products that encourage networking but are not tied for RFID (ie - individual QR codes to LinkedIn profiles, etc) would love any suggestions or things you have done in the past or vendors you have used... THANK YOU!
Anyone have a favorite webinar platform- open to whether you produced or were an attendee? We are looking to onboard one in our next fiscal year and I would love opinions. Looking at On24, Splash, Zoom events, Go to Webinar, Bizzaboo.
Hi All! Wondering if anyone uses Bizzabo for webinars & virtual events? I have not had hands-on experience with it, but my company 1) has it as a hold-over from a large user conference and 2) needs an upgraded webinar/virtual events platform (currently using Zoom). We are 95% certain we will resign, and will be hosting some test webinars next week, but I would love to hear feedback on Bizzabo's webinar/virtual event features from any current users. Thank you!
Does anyone have a rec for digital badge vendors and curious your experience with these...are they worth the price?
Hey all! Does anyone have a great recommendation for a company that can help take the load off me related to travel and hotel booking? I am currently looking at Cvent, but I am not sure how much front end work it will be to get this set up and then convincing all of my employees to self service will be a mountain to climb. Anyone else have something great they use? Thanks in advance
Can anyone recommend a reg software for a one day, all general session meeting for 200 pax? We need standard meeting items- speaker bios/photos, agenda, ticketing, comp codes, etc. Didn’t know who might be good for a one off event.
Looking for recommendations on professional conference apps for attendees. Needs to have a good sponsor/partner capabilities and bulk upload/import options for sessions and speakers. Would be great to have a speaker portal too. Right now we use Pheedloop and it’s good. Just looking to see what else is out there TIA!!
Hi everyone! What is your favorite ticketing/registration tool? If it’s not a full on event platform and if it’s not Eventbrite, what’s yoru choice? (paid/unpaid)
hi friends! looking for a solid event app vendor and appreciate any leads!! thank you and grateful for this group of pros!!
Hi all - I am seeking name badge advice for an upcoming conference of 60-70ppl. We are in the process of printing 3x5 badges on lanyards for the current rsvp list, but need recommendations for a printer for labels/stickers for onsite (last minute rsvps, correcting any typos, etc) to print on blank badges. Does anyone have recommendations? We used a p-touch yesterday for a conference and it was not great!
Hi there! Looking to build an app for an upcoming client program. Wondering if anyone has any reccos for event based apps you've used. It would be great if there's a ticket integration feature.
Hey All! Im running point on a 200 person conference this fall, but having trouble finding an event registration platform that meets the following needs:
