Cvent Onsite Solutions vs. ExhibitForce

As mentioned in the first question, I think CVENT Onsite is best to use when the group is over 400 people. Anything under that we can manage by pre-printing. But when it's over 400 and you have a quick registration timeline, onsite solutions are your only option (in my opinion).

• Allows a quick check-in process in the app rather than dealing with pesky paper badges
• Provides a digital itinerary for attendees rather than having to print them out individually
• Offers attendee tracking to better tailor future events

Incentivized

• Pricing. If we can get lower pricing, we can use for more events.
• Buying our own on-site kits vs having Cvent team needing to be onsite.

Cvent Onsite Solutions is very user friendly and easy for those who are not very tech savvy. My first time using On-Arrival went very smoothly while onsite for a program due to the prior training that was provided by Cvent Onsite Solutions in our OSS training. Overall, it allows for tech integrations to be utilized easily.

The person onsite can be hit or miss. We have had a few really wonderful support technicians that came prepared, were helpful, and jumped in where needed. We have had others that sat back, didn't offer advice or best practices tips, and were not pleasant to work with. It's very hit or miss.

My organization also uses the Cvent Event Management platform. We did try using another platform called "STAR" which had very limited offerings compared to the Cvent Onsite Solutions. STAR did not have a user-friendly layout nor was it easy to digitally manage our events. Maybe the STAR platform works better on a smaller scale, but we are a large organization so it simply wasn't efficient for us

Incentivized

• It allows our organization to lower overtime pay to employees who needed to stay at the registration area
• Allows us to allocate our resources to other functions that bring in revenue
• Pre-conference time usually wasted on pre-packing is now freed up to focus on more important functions within our organization
