Event Travel Management

Event Travel Management Software

Seamlessly integrating travel & accommodations with event planning and travel management software.

If you manage business travel and accommodations for event attendees, you know that without the right travel management solution, the details can be complex and time-consuming.

Luckily, EventPro's event management software has two powerful, purpose designed modules designed to help you: the Event Accommodations Module and Event Travel Module.

These two travel management tools will help you manage all of the crucial details of the business travel & accommodation arrangements, from travel expense reporting and expense management to corporate travel management and more.

Our top travel management software helps you manage all the details, including:

  • Travel Type
  • Travel Agency
  • Check in / Check out
  • Guest Arrangements
  • Room Sharing
  • Arrival/Departure
  • Billing Information

The Event Accommodations and Event Travel Modules are integrated seamlessly with EventPro, allowing reservations for business travelers to be linked with the appropriate attendees and events for effortless review, editing, and printing. With these features, business travel planning is now made easy and stress-free, giving you more time to focus on your business goals. Business travel planning has never been so easy!

Work More Efficiently with One Streamlined Travel Management Platform

Book multiple attendees in one step.

The user-friendly "multi-add" feature in the Event Accommodations and Event Travel Modules allows you to add a travel or accommodation arrangement to multiple attendees in one quick process. The data entry for business trips is done in a fraction of the time, and you avoid the errors that arise when re-keying information. The "multi-edit" and "multi-delete" functions work in the same way, allowing you to change or delete multiple records in the time it normally takes to change or delete one.

Import Reservations

If you already have travel and accommodation arrangements organized within files or databases, use the import feature in the Event Accommodations and Event Travel Modules to quickly add them to the event. With travel management solutions like this, you save time and money.

Let Attendees Enter the Information for You

Using the Event Accommodations and Event Travel Modules in conjunction with EPConnect Attendee Online, you can allow attendees to select or enter their travel and accommodation information online. You then simply import the information back into EventPro’s professional event software for fast, accurate organization of attendee travel & accommodations.

Event Travel

View & Distribute Accurate Information Quickly & Easily with Business Travel Software

Centralized information.

Because both the Event Accommodations and Event Travel Modules are integrated with EventPro online event registration software , all of your corporate travel booking & accommodation information will be connected to the relevant attendees and events. This makes it easier for you and your staff members to find and view critical information.

Don't Leave Attendees Out in the Cold

When you add travel and accommodation records to attendees, the Event Accommodations and Event Travel Modules will automatically check the check in/check out dates against the arrival/departure dates. If there is a date discrepancy – e.g. the attendee's travel arrives a day ahead of the accommodation check-in – you will receive a warning.

Print Vital Information in Easy-to-Read Reports

Use the reports built into the Event Accommodations and Event Travel Modules to easily track which attendees are coming and going. You can quickly review records like reserved accommodation rooms, arrival and departure times, check in and check out dates, and more. In a sense, this makes your travel management software a form of expense management solution, helping you keep tabs on the travel expenses part of your event budget

Easy, Accurate Billing with Integrated Finance

Thanks to EventPro's multifunctional design, your event finance data and travel & accommodation records are all integrated together for easy billing.* When assigning travel and accommodation reservations to attendees, you can indicate who will be billed for the reservations, making this a spend management solution. When you later generate an invoice for the bill-to party, the travel and accommodation charges will be automatically pulled in for easy, accurate attendee billing through this element of the expense management software.

* With EventPro's Invoices & Payments Module

Put the Event Travel Management Modules or the Complete Event Planning Suite to Work for you

Are you looking to optimize venue use, streamline travel planning, provide better service, or add more value to your events, but struggling with a limited amount of time? Don't wait any longer, and start carving out the time you need from your busy schedule with EventPro Software.

The 8 best event management software platforms in 2024

Hero image with the logos of the best event management apps

The right event management software can make the process less of a headache by letting you run every aspect of your event in one place. The best tools also directly improve the attendee experience, with mobile apps, networking functionality, and dynamic virtual environments.

After taking a few weeks to research the top-rated tools on the market and speaking to professionals who actually use these apps, I've narrowed it down to the eight best apps in the event management space.

The best event management software

What makes the best event management platform.

Event management apps come in all shapes and sizes—and promise all sorts of successes. Here, I'm showcasing apps that save you time and energy when managing logistics, deadlines, and attendee engagement. The event management apps listed here are full-service apps that let users host a mix of event types, including in-person, virtual, and hybrid. 

Your mileage may vary when it comes to the specific features and use cases you're looking for, but most event marketers have a few priorities in common. The best event management tools simplify the process of organizing a great event while creating a streamlined, memorable experience for attendees. When researching apps for this list, I decided to include only ones that meet the following basic criteria for a well-rounded event management tool:

Eliminates the piecemeal approach to event planning by centralizing information in one place

Helps you collaborate and communicate with at least one of your key audiences, whether that's colleagues, vendors, or attendees

Offers a dashboard to track and measure success

Lets you customize a mobile app for event attendees

Includes registration, ticketing, and marketing features (with bonus points for advanced functionality like conditional logic forms and email segmentation)

To find the best of the best, I spoke to event managers, watched demos, and spent more time on Reddit than was probably healthy. Based on all those inputs, I narrowed it down to the eight best event management platforms.

Swoogo, our pick for the best event management software for ease of use

Swoogo pros:

Easy to use

Highly customizable

Great customer service

Best-in-class registration forms

Swoogo cons:

Yearly pricing structure can be expensive 

No Zapier integration

Swoogo is known for its user-friendliness and flexibility, but the ease of use doesn't come at the expense of features. 

The platform's standout feature is its fully customizable registration form, with unlimited conditional logic and registrant types. Its drag-and-drop website builder then makes it easy to create multiple white-labeled pages that host your registration form—along with your event pages, sponsor information, and other aspects of your event.

Another highlight: in my research, I was surprised to see that not all event management apps include an email marketing component, even though email is crucial for getting the word out. Swoogo, on the other hand, has a fully customizable email marketing feature that lets users create automated email campaigns. 

It also comes with plenty of native integrations—including popular CRM tools, payment gateways, and video conferencing tools—to make it easier to manage your event from one central hub.

Eventcombo, our pick for the best event management software for advanced email marketing features

Eventcombo pros:

Advanced email marketing features

Conditional logic forms

Eventcombo cons:

Can have a steep learning curve

If you're looking for a comprehensive set of marketing and promotion features, Eventcombo is a great choice. The tool's Email Marketing Engine offers a drag-and-drop email builder that lets you create dynamic emails with images, videos, and multimedia content. But it goes beyond basic email blasts and confirmation messages: it also lets you segment your email list and schedule delivery for optimized user engagement. Eventcombo also offers plenty of email templates, A/B testing, and advanced analytics so you can run professional email campaigns for your event.

The platform's registration features are similarly customizable, with forms that contain conditional logic and nested fields. You can approve and block email domains to manage who registers for each event. For those on the approved list, you can even set up automatic notifications to encourage your desired attendees to register.

Zuddl, our pick for the most customizable event management software

Zuddl pros:

Modular platform

Immersive audience experience

Great customer support

Zuddl cons:

Limited marketing features

Zuddl is a more modular tool than most of the other apps on this list, in that it lets event managers build their own suite of features. You'll only pay for the parts of the software you need for your event, with the option to scale or switch based on event type or strategy.

The landing page builder lets you go as simple or complicated as you like. Choose a minimalist experience with SEO-friendly landing page templates, or opt for a custom-branded event website, using your business's domain if you want. On top of that, the flow builder tool makes it easy to create complex ticketing flows with conditional branching.

Event professionals seem to appreciate the immersive and energizing audience experience Zuddl offers. The mobile app includes chat, Q&A, and poll features to encourage engagement between attendees and session hosts. And live attendees can use the embeddable venue map, schedule builder, and 1:1 meeting scheduler to network and navigate their experience.

Whova, our top pick for the best event management software for optimizing attendee experiences

Whova pros:

Great attendee engagement and networking features for guests

Whova cons:

Limited reporting 

Whova gets a lot of love for its ability to boost attendee engagement and actually make networking easy and fun (imagine that). The mobile app includes live interaction features, like Q&A, polling, private chatting, and discussion threads. Features like meet-ups, group communications, and identifying common interests help attendees build strong connections during your event. And the social wall option is an easy way to highlight event activities, share announcements, and boost excitement.

Of course, Whova also offers plenty of back-end features, too. The no-code website builder is easy to use, with web traffic analytics that help you refine your marketing strategy. And the exhibitor management features include online booths, gamified booth interactions, and an exhibitor portal.

PheedLoop, our pick for the best event management software for community and learning management

PheedLoop pros:

Customizability

Integrated LMS

PheedLoop cons:

Can be glitchy

Customer support can be lacking

PheedLoop stood out to me because of its new Learning Management System (LMS) feature, which lets you offer courses and certifications for attendees. The online course system has a CE Credit Tracking feature where you can assign credits to sessions, award customized certificates, and track attendance. And all learner data is fully incorporated into your event management system, which can give you insights into your overall session performance.

Beyond the LMS, I found that most users appreciate PheedLoop's customizability and dynamic virtual options. They say the live chat, gamification, and customizable virtual environments help give online events an engaging flair. PheedLoop also has full-text support for more than 14 languages, which helps brands host online events for an international audience. And for live events, the seat and floor planning features help you simplify event layouts and book the right number of exhibitors.

Accelevents, our pick for the event management software with the best customer support

Accelevents pros:

Customer support

Affordable pricing

Accelevents cons:

No custom background feature for virtual events

If your team's top priority is a highly responsive customer service team to support you in everything from setup to implementation, Accelevents is the way to go. When I reached out to Zapier's events marketing team for input on the best event management software, my colleague Denise sang Accelevents' praises: "Accelevents has the best-in-class customer support. Any time of night or day, they're back to us in minutes. It's a big reason folks choose them and stick with them, including our team."

Beyond the dedicated customer service, Accelevents offers plenty of customization and flexibility. Popular features include advanced registration workflows with conditional logic, automated check-in technology, and a website builder with dynamic widgets.

Spotme, our pick for the best event management software for enterprise security and compliance

SpotMe pros:

Robust security and compliance

Built for enterprise organizations

SpotMe cons:

Audience engagement features can be slow

What sets SpotMe apart is its focus on security, compliance, and accelerating customer relationships at scale. Users have control over where their event and attendee data is hosted, and the platform runs weekly vulnerability assessments and annual pentest reports. The robust security and compliance features are crucial for industries like finance and medicine, where data security and regulatory compliance are non-negotiable. 

In my research, I found that users appreciate SpotMe's high engagement capabilities, customization options, and flexibility.

Canapii, our pick for the best event management app for visualizing event spaces

Canapii pros:

Advanced seating planner

Streamlined dashboard for easy organization and prioritizing

Self-serve sponsor portal

Canapii cons:

Limited integration options

With Canapii, you can go beyond a simple guest list and instead track everything from RSVPs to meal preferences and seating charts. And you can easily visualize your event layout with specific attendee placements, whether you have banquet tables or expo booths. Event marketers, conference organizers, and trade show organizers say it's easy to get started planning a seamless and engaging event experience.

Canapii's Organizer Console helps event organizers keep their eyes on the prize by featuring key event goals and benchmarks in one dashboard. And it also offers all the important standard features, like customized event branding and registration forms, as well as engagement tools like live streaming, polling, Q&A, and gamification features. 

Event planners appreciate that their sponsors can use Canapii's self-serve portal to create digital booths and upload downloadable content for the event. And the platform has a few native integrations with popular tools like Slack, Stripe, and Marketo—but keep in mind that the tool's integration options are more limited than other apps on this list. 

Other event management software options

Event management is a broad category, so it makes sense that there are dozens (if not hundreds) of apps to choose from. I couldn't personally test each app (I sadly don't have the bandwidth to host multiple events across several dozen apps). So instead, my process involved doing in-depth research on each app and reaching out to professional event marketers—including Zapier's in-house marketing team—for their expertise. 

A lot of very popular apps didn't make the cut for one reason or another (including not meeting my baseline G2 ratings cutoff, not fitting the category exactly, or some other reason). I did want to be sure to shout out a few big names, though, because a few folks mentioned them in my conversations:

Which event management software should I use?

Each of these platforms will help ease the event planning process and provide you with the tools you need to host and manage a successful event. The key is to choose an event management app that ties into your specific needs. For example, if you're hosting a local event and you're worried about a drop-off in ticket sales, pick software like Eventcombo that's heavy on marketing. But if you're putting together an all-singing, all-dancing conference and need to create floor plans with your team, Canapii's layout planning features can help. Whatever you choose, event planning software absolutely beats the DIY approach.

Corporate travel management software

Streamline business trips with travel management software.

As you grow your operations, the need for efficient and effective travel management software and dedicated support and service also grows. You need to streamline your business travel program, whether expensing, duty of care, the booking process, or reporting. But where do you start? 

Our corporate travel management platform , Melon, is your ticket to a smoother, more thoughtful, and safer business journey. Melon has your back, from simplifying the booking experience to gathering insights and analytics and streamlining processes and risk management.

What is corporate travel management software?

Corporate travel management software allows your company to: 

  • Book and manage your business trips 
  • Keep track of traveler data, traveler profiles, and preferences 
  • Report on your business travel bookings and travel spend 
  • Manage your travel policy and mitigate compliance issues and risk 
  • Consolidate your travel program to keep it streamlined and organized 

When handling your business travel, you likely use different tools, each doing different things. And you might be spending a lot of time jumping between them to complete the task at hand. 

You may also have travelers booking their travel ad hoc online with credit cards. They then have to submit expense reports, potentially losing receipts and reservations in the process. A user-friendly travel platform makes it easy to comply with company booking policies and stay organized. 

The beauty of working with Corporate Traveler is that we designed our travel platform to simplify every part of your business travel management . You'll use a single platform and login to book flights, analyze data, and even keep your people safe.

Make business trips effortless with travel booking software

At its core,  corporate travel booking software simplifies booking travel .

It takes all the loaded fares and rates and makes searching, booking, and managing travel easy. But not all online booking tools are created equal, and not all of them are user-friendly or do what you need them to. 

When you're comparing TMCs or auditing what your current solution offers, you should have these questions in the back of your mind:  

  • Do they have an easy-to-use online booking tool my travelers will love? 
  • Can bookings be made from any device, or do they have to be made on a desktop via travel booking software? 
  • What sort of rates can we access from the booking software? For example, is it only negotiated rates, or can you access online content, exclusive rates, etc.? More range = more choice. 
  • Can we streamline the approvals process through automation or built-in workflows? 

As a business, efficiency is vital; streamlining or centralizing procedures can help you get there. You'll need to make sure that your travel arrangements are consistent, compliant, and totally in line with company policies.

A travel platform like Melon, helps you to develop processes that simplify: 

Travel Policy compliance:

You've already gone through the trouble of building a policy that meets all your travelers' needs, but you need to make sure your travelers follow it. 

A corporate travel management platform, like Melon, allows you to outline your travel policy in the platform and alerts bookers when they are selecting options outside the company guidelines to help them stay on track. 

Travelers are prompted to choose from options that fall within budget and company preferences and, as a bonus, are served flights, hotels, and cars that suit their choices based on past bookings. 

Read more about travel policy compliance .

Centralized booking: 

Booking across different websites and compiling it into one organized itinerary is tricky. Melon brings all the available booking options, including flights, hotels, and transportation, into one platform. Say goodbye to a browser full of open tabs or digging through your search history to find the options you were comparing. 

Melon gives you all the airline, hotel chain, and car rental options in one place so that you can book in just a few minutes. This also minimizes the risk of fragmented bookings or potential booking mishaps. 

Preferred vendor integration: 

Have a preferred airline? Like a specific hotel bed the most? Collecting car rental loyalty points? Our travel platform, Melon, ensures your preferred vendors come up first so you always find what you're looking for. 

When your bookers and travelers see their favorite options come up first, compliance is a breeze. You'll rest assured knowing they're choosing from the negotiated rates and exclusive deals that save your bottom line. 

Approval workflows:

Jump off the approvals merry-go-round. With Melon, you can set up a custom approval workflow to make sure that travel requests are routed to the appropriate managers for review. Once approved, Melon takes care of booking the rest. 

Quick. Easy. Streamlined! 

Business travel analytics for informed decision-making 

If your travel bookings aren't centralized, it can be a struggle to locate the data you need to understand the needs of your business travel program. Bringing all of your bookings under one roof and one platform helps you to identify the patterns and trends of your booking behaviors. And by leveraging valuable insights, you can optimize, strategize, and keep hold of the reins. 

Knowledge is power. The business travel analytics that Melon provides will ultimately help you make the calls that can end up saving you big time.  

There are many ways to use business travel analytics to aid in better decision-making. Melon's robust reporting function gives you the bits and pieces to paint a clear picture of your expenses, spending patterns, and compliance, all of which help you forecast how that will look over time. 

Dive into an expense analysis 

Curious how much people are spending on hotels? Need help determining how you're tracking your annual budget? Travel analytics are taken from the data of both self-service bookings and agent-assisted bookings to provide a complete picture of your travel expenses. This allows you as a business to quickly identify any areas of overspending or leakage and implement cost-saving measures. 

Sneak a peek into travel behavior patterns 

Frequent travel to Tokyo? Travelers selecting luxury over budget-conscious options? You'll quickly and clearly see the patterns by analyzing your booking data and easily identify common travel routes, preferred airlines, and hotel choices to optimize the booking experience further. 

Understanding this information leads to smoother negotiations with travel providers when trying to secure better rates or knowing how to tweak the algorithm in the platform to deliver more appropriate choices to your team. 

Keep tabs on travel policy compliance 

Listen, nobody likes having to police their travelers or micromanage their bookings. It's so much better if you can give them the freedom to book how they want to while being assured they comply with company policy. 

Real-time travel analytics help ensure employees stick to corporate travel policies, and non-compliance can be flagged and addressed promptly. This leads to better control over travel-related expenses, and potential issues can be dealt with as they occur. 

Plan your way forward with budget forecasting 

Crystal balls that work are hard to come by, but historical data can help you predict future travel costs more accurately. You'll build more realistic budgets and be able to allocate your resources more effectively if you know how to see booking patterns. 

Plan like a pro with travel reporting insights 

Solid travel management software should not only help you see all sides of your travel program but also give you the insights you need to plan like a pro. A good business travel reporting platform is the backbone of your travel program. It helps you create an environment where visibility is better than ever, and all decisions are based on data. That’s where Melon really stands out.

Suppose you know what's happening with your travel expenses, booking patterns, and other important metrics that inform data-driven decision-making. In that case, you'll be better prepared to deal with uncontrollable factors like economic change, political impacts, etc. 

What kind of travel reports can I find in my travel management platform? 

With Melon, you can pull more than 800 types of reports, so the insights are…plenty. Behind that travel platform is an entire world of travel reports! And while some customers and industries need to keep trips organized by project codes, others may need to look at bookings by destination, office location, you name it! 

It's not uncommon for businesses to want to report on their carbon footprint, compliance, and unused travel credits or to understand their travelers' out-of-pocket expenses. Whatever you're looking for, there's a report for that.  

All eyes on traveler safety with travel risk management

Whether your team is traveling near or far, duty of care is a top for every business that travels. It undoubtedly doesn't make sense to hire private detectives to keep tabs on your team, but having a travel risk management dashboard in your stack gives you peace of mind that they are safe. 

With Melon's built-in traveler tracking and risk management dashboard, you can rest assured that you and your team will be updated about disruptions, travel alerts, and plan changes. You'll have access to: 

1. Real-time alerts

These systems regularly monitor global events and provide real-time alerts about potential disruptions like political instability, natural disasters, or health concerns. 

2. Traveller tracking

This is especially helpful for companies with teams of people traveling to multiple destinations. The dashboard makes it simple to locate employees' whereabouts during travel. And, in an emergency, you'll be able to locate and assist affected travelers quickly. 

3. Communication channels

Whether your team is in a destination and needs a hand, or you're at home and need a quick solution after-hours, help is here. With Melon's live-chat function, you'll be in touch with a travel expert who knows what to do in minutes. 

4. Emergency response plans

Melon makes it simple to know who to call when and if an emergency arises. Your team can easily see their dedicated contact and access assistance in just a few clicks. You can also incorporate your emergency plans in your travel policy, which outlines the procedures for risky scenarios. 

Features that enhance your travel experience

It's uncommon for a traveler to be totally disconnected these days. In such a connected environment, business travel apps have become reliable tools for jet-setters, whether they travel for short-term or longer durations. These mobile apps are essentially personal travel assistants that allow employees to manage their itineraries, book flights, and accommodations, and stay informed about travel updates – all from the palms of their hands. 

Here are some key features to look for in a business travel management app: 

1. Itinerary management

A travel app like the Melon app provides a centralized platform for storing and accessing travel itineraries, eliminating the need for printed documents. 

Your travelers can access their travel schedules, booking details, and important updates with a few taps. 

2. Flight and hotel booking

Integrated booking features allow travel bookers and travelers to search, compare, and book flights and hotels directly through the app. It's simple for your team to stick to company policies while making travel arrangements without having their computer on hand. 

3. Real-time updates

Some travel apps will inform you about flight delays, gate changes, and other crucial information in real time. This minimizes disruptions and allows travelers to adapt their plans accordingly. 

4. Communication tools:

The Melon app features a communication tool, or live chat, that enables your travelers to connect with expert travel consultants while they're on the move. 

But travel management apps aren't the only apps that business travelers find handy. There's an app for nearly everything, including finding an airport lounge, booking local tours or excursions for your free time, or brushing up on your Spanish skills. In fact, we'll streamline your search and give you nine business travel apps that we find particularly useful! 

A travel platform that grows with your business

Managing corporate travel effectively demands strategy and efficiency. The quickest way forward is a travel management platform like Melon that gives you everything you need in one platform, one login, encompassing booking, analytics, reporting, and risk management. 

When you leverage these tools, you streamline your travel processes and make better decisions based on solid data. You'll optimize costs, enhance traveler experiences, and have safety in the foreground. It's a win-win all around.

7 best event management tools to plan a successful event

event management tools

Planning an event can be an exhilarating experience…but exhilaration often leads to exhaustion. 

In fact, a recent study by World Scholarship Vault found that event planner stress levels have hit an all-time high – the third most stressful job in the world . Of course, this comes as no surprise. With so many moving parts involved in bringing an event to life, it's no wonder event management professionals often find themselves juggling numerous tasks simultaneously.  

Luckily, there’s no shortage of tools to help you squash that stress.  

With the help of our Meetings and Events team, we've outlined the best-of-the-best software solutions to support you at every (and yes, we mean every) stage of the event planning process. 

What to look for in an event management tool 

Remember: no tech is created equal. When searching for the perfect event management software, be sure to consider any and all key factors that align your company goals with your event requirements. 

Before committing to any specific tool, make sure you can confidently say yes to the following questions:  

  • Does it meet your needs? – Different tools and event planning software cater to various event types and business requirements. Before making a decision, clearly define your needs and objectives. Ensure that the software you choose aligns with those specific needs.   That being said, it may not be possible to find every feature you’re looking for in a single software within an already limited budget. In this case, you may want to leverage a combination of tools that fulfill different needs.   
  • Does it have positive reviews? – Don’t dive in without first testing the waters! Research and evaluate the reputation of the event management tools you are considering. The experiences and feedback of other event planners can provide valuable insights into the software's effectiveness, reliability, and user satisfaction.   
  • Does it have a user-friendly interface? – A comprehensive event management tool should make your job easier, and not cause additional headaches. Look for software that offers intuitive navigation, easy customization, and a clear interface to maximize your efficiency and minimize the learning curve for you and your team.

“This system is amazing. Not only does it facilitate a quick, seamless check-in process for attendees, it also allows us to print their badges onsite. No more chasing around a printer when you need to make badge changes! And since OnArrival eliminates long lines at check-in, you can process thousands of guests in no time. As a planner, this enables me to focus more energy on engaging with attendees and create a meaningful event experience.” 

-      Hayley Ketchum, Director of Sales & Account Management 

But what really sets OnArrival apart from similar event planning technology is its ability to provide planners with real-time, in-depth insights into how attendees are engaging with your brand. Additionally, OnArrival allows you to access and edit attendee details from any device. 

It’s the ace up your sleeve when it comes to facilitating efficient and stress-free onsite operations. 

Best in scheduling and organization 

Wrike is the ultimate all-in-one system for scheduling, coordinating, and managing events with ease. This powerful platform provides a wide range of customization options, allowing you to tailor it to fit your specific event schedule needs. With Wrike, you have the flexibility to choose from multiple integrations and add-on features, ensuring that you have all the event planning tools necessary to create a seamless event experience. 

But that’s not all – with Wrike, you can create projects with subtasks, cross-tag tasks to relevant projects, and assign users to effortlessly track progress. If you’re looking for a way to manage and coordinate your events with utmost precision, Wrike is the tool for you. 

Best live polling tool 

Slido is a well-known Q&A and live polling tool that takes audience engagement to the next level. With Slido, users can easily crowdsource top questions from attendees, driving meaningful conversations during events. The live polling feature enhances attendee engagement and participation, making every session interactive, personalized, and exciting. 

It is worth noting that while Slido offers these features, many other event management platforms already include similar capabilities. For example, some event management platforms provide functionalities like displaying results on screen, offering various live poll question templates for easy setup, supporting question ranking, auto-reminders, and even embedding Q&A into speakers' slides. 

So, before adopting another app solely for Q&A and live polls, explore the features available in your existing event application to ensure a seamless experience for both you and your attendees. 

Best for streaming and recording  

In a blast from lockdown past, Zoom has become synonymous with virtual meetings and events. 

With its widespread familiarity, Zoom Events have become a standard option for many organizers. Zoom Events is designed to handle various aspects of event management, including hosting sessions via streaming, sharing events, managing ticketing, and more. 

However, Zoom Events is focused primarily on smaller courses and webinars, and may lack some of the more advanced features found on other event management platforms, such as the digital booths offered by vFairs. As a result, Zoom might not be the ideal fit for larger conferences or events that require more extensive, interactive functionalities. 

Nonetheless, for smaller-scale gatherings and webinars, Zoom remains a reliable choice, leveraging its reputation for seamless streaming and recording capabilities.
