Considered Both Products	Aventri Megan Baak Operations Manager Chose Aventri We loved CVENT and DoubleDutch, but it was much easier to have all the modules we needed in one platform, which happened to be Aventri. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Aventri I have only gone through demos of other products as we switched over from a custom product prior to Aventri. The biggest reason we selected Aventri is the malleability of the product, along with their amazing customer support. Their pricing is also extremely competitive, and … Incentivized Helpful? Patrick Reilly, CMP Meeting Planner Chose Aventri I have not used CVENT but I know about them. They are double the price of Aventri and offer the same type of product. They have more integrations (like lead sourcing), however. Incentivized Helpful? Fran Rickenbach President Chose Aventri eTouches was selected for the integrated package, lower cost per registrant, no limitations on web pages, availability of exhibit sales module. It can handle the complexity of our client programs very easily. eTouches tells us we are "power users ;-)". Incentivized Helpful? Bill Reger Webmaster Chose Aventri SignUp4 was our previous service and performed well. It wasn't until after it shuttered that we realized how much more could be provided. Cvent (which absorbed SignUp4) provided many of the old solutions but at a significantly higher price. In the end, it seemed more suited … Incentivized Helpful?	RunSignUp Thomas Baker, CFE, MBA Risk Advisory Manager Chose RunSignUp I liked RunSignUp much more as it was much better suited for what we were looking to use it for and do. The functionality matched our needs and we were able to fine-tune exactly what we needed from the system without losing too much of the user experience. Incentivized Helpful? Kathryn Juarez Director of Community Relations Chose RunSignUp RunSignUp does not bombard registrants with advertising the way that Active did when we previously used it. We have found RunSignUp’s platform to be simple and clean and hopefully a much nicer experience for those who register. Incentivized Helpful?

User Testimonials

Likelihood to Recommend	I believe Aventri has a big learning curve, so if you are short on time, I would recommend hiring someone who already has experience. We had a few months, but making changes took a while because only two staff members had time to figure out and learn the system. I don't think the website is very user-friendly, but I don't think it's so hard that the average worker cannot learn it. We happened to be short on time so learning the system was an added stress that would not normally be there. Incentivized Adriana (Adri) Luna Member Services Associate Read full review	RunSignUp is a well-templated online platform for athletic event registrations. The customer service is awesome and we have found the platform to be fairly user-friendly and intuitive. The platform falls a bit short when a registrant is trying to register multiple people within a single transaction using a registration kiosk. Other than that though, it’s a fairly simple platform with good reporting capability. Incentivized Kathryn Juarez Director of Community Relations Read full review
Pros	Manages class size limits very well. Provides information for hotel booking and transfers so that all this information is in one record. Unlimited number of pages for the website is invaluable - we looked at other programs with only 4 pages for the website and that just isn't enough for our clients. Incentivized Fran Rickenbach President Read full review	Built-in templates to make design a breeze Great client support Simple and effective email tool Easy reporting Easy learning curve Incentivized Kathryn Juarez Director of Community Relations Read full review
Cons	Mobile app does not allow for video advertisements. The day the event is scheduled to be over in Aventri it clears from your list and it makes getting reporting and analytics difficult after the event is over. Incentivized Patrick Reilly, CMP Meeting Planner Read full review	Additional information on participants. Messaging to users or participants. Calendar function is hard to use. Incentivized Thomas Baker, CFE, MBA Risk Advisory Manager Read full review
Support Rating	I had a few issues while onsite (over the weekend). The support information given to me was incorrect and I had a hard time tracking down how to get assistance while onsite (on a weekend). When you are onsite, issues are usually heightened and need an immediate response, and I didn't get that. Incentivized Patrick Reilly, CMP Meeting Planner Read full review	Customer support is quick and straightforward and always available!!

Alternatives Considered	SignUp4 was our previous service and performed well. It wasn't until after it shuttered that we realized how much more could be provided. Cvent (which absorbed SignUp4) provided many of the old solutions but at a significantly higher price. In the end, it seemed more suited for very large events more so than the size we normally run. Thus we chose eTouches to supplant SignUp4. Incentivized Bill Reger Webmaster Read full review	I liked RunSignUp much more as it was much better suited for what we were looking to use it for and do. The functionality matched our needs and we were able to fine-tune exactly what we needed from the system without losing too much of the user experience.

Return on Investment	Much more thorough reporting than previous provider. The ability for long term goal creation based on the objectives evaluated post conference. Incentivized Bill Reger Webmaster Read full review	Less employee time spent in admin tasks. Lower cost of payment processing.
