Considered Both Products
Cvent Abstract Management
Chose Cvent Abstract Management
I have only used Cvent's event management tools. The wide range of tools they offer has been very beneficial for our company and event planning.
Chose Cvent Abstract Management
This was already in place when I started at my organization. Because I can import or transfer the speaker info into the event management side, it’s a great option. The other two software work too but I’d have to import their info into the system instead of it being there already
Chose Cvent Abstract Management
Since we were already using Cvent's Event Management platform and wanted something that would have a seamless integration, we did not explore other options. The client was coming from their own management, which was comprised of a survey tool and spreadsheets.
Chose Cvent Abstract Management
I've not used a specific system like this - usually it's all on the backend. This saved me a lot of time and resources! I was able to make minor adjustments in the review period that were implemented in the overall agenda and speaker page on my event site.
Chose Cvent Abstract Management
We have mainly focused on Cvent products. They are the leader in their industry and their products are top-notch. We knew we wanted to add more Cvent software to our portfolio so they are all we chose to consider this time around. We are very pleased with our decision.
Chose Cvent Abstract Management
Cvent is much more built out than other event management systems I have used previously. Eventbrite is a lot simpler and UX friendly. Cvent takes a lot more time to set up and get running, but can do SO much more. You can track things/customize the system however you like. …

Cvent Abstract ManagementTrimble Submittal Manager
Likelihood to Recommend
Preparing for conferences and gatherings is a demonstrated good use for this product. Similarly, other efforts that involve many moving pieces would be well-suited- projects with a number of different participants/authors, team retreats, and situations where there is a benefit to storing and organizing information in a decentralized way where no one person needs to bear that responsibility.

Support Rating
Support has been great! The chat feature is phenomenal and every agent I have talked to has gotten back to me instantly with a solution, or done a fantastic follow up on where a status of an issue is. I have been very impressed with the professional demeanor and help I have gotten from Cvent support. They are even available at odd hours of the night

Return on Investment
  • Our client has used Cvent Abstract Management for two years now. They saw almost a 50% increase in abstract submissions year over year.
  • While the product has saved the client time in sending acceptance/rejection notices and scheduling abstracts to their event, the output of the reporting has still been an issue; a lot of manual adjusting has to take place with the data for them to utilize it properly.
