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?	Picatic Lance Ratze Owner Chose Picatic Picatic has a freemium account and free trial as opposed to Eventbrite. It also provides so many other different features that Eventbrite doesn't offer like: analytics, ticket management, sales reporting, mobile integration, etc. Picatic is also very simple to use as opposed to … Incentivized Helpful? Andrew Van Horn Business Coach Chose Picatic Picatic was the switch I made from using both Constant Contact and Eventbrite because it was a faster and easier platform to handle. It also did not come with a high monthly cost and out more information above the registration link. Overall the landing pages are much better on … Incentivized Helpful? Amber Orvik-Schultz Chief Administrator Chose Picatic Picatics site is clean, modern, and easy to navigate. There are many features and many ways to customize your event to make sure that it is exactly what we want.

User Testimonials
	Aventri	Picatic
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	This is perfectly suited for any events you wish to promote and where you wish to track specifically who has RSVP'd for the event and perhaps who hasn't. Incentivized Trent Gain, AIF®, CRPC® Chief Operating Officer 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	I love the look and ease of putting the event together. Its nice to be able to download a copy of all attendees for easy check-in at the door. They also have an application for smart phones that lets you scan the tickets as they come in and checks them off the list instantly. The customer service team is always quick to respond and has help answer any questions that arise. Incentivized Amber Orvik Chief Administrator 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	The landing pages although decent could be better improved so that they convert better when people get hit with them. I think the analytics tool could also be improved so that a person could track where leads come from easier. I think they could also make it easier to see who is paying the processing fee easier to find. There were a few times that it took a little bit of time to get the overall pricing set-up just the way that I wanted it. Incentivized Andrew Van Horn Business Coach 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	No answers on this topic
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	Picatic was the switch I made from using both Constant Contact and Eventbrite because it was a faster and easier platform to handle. It also did not come with a high monthly cost and out more information above the registration link. Overall the landing pages are much better on Picatic than they were on any other site Incentivized Andrew Van Horn Business Coach Read full review
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	I don't think we would have the same number of signups if people weren't able to purchase tickets in advance. Less inexpensive than Eventbrite.
