RSVPify vs Whova: Which is a better fit?

Elizabeth: My name is Elizabeth. I am the CEO and founder of Dear Eliza, and I give RSVPify four out of five. In the past, for different events, I've used things like just direct email and paperless posts, but for this event, I wanted something that actually had better tracking and a more personalized touch. RSVPify had quite a few great reviews. I took a look at the website and everything seemed really clear to understand, but the biggest thing that really made me go with them was the QR code. I wanted to include a QR code on our printed invitations so that people could just scan it and find out the event details immediately. It was a pretty easy learning curve. When I joined, it maybe took a little bit of time to kind of figure out all the functionality because there are quite a few options, which is great. But for someone who just needed something really simple, I think that I was a little confused at first. But yeah, with some time and just reading a little bit more, I was able to figure it out. I think anyone that's looking to use RSVPify I would recommend going with probably a paid plan because you get the most functionality like the QR code, which is really why I chose that platform, and I think that that really stood out for my guests. A few of them mentioned it, how cool they thought having the QR code was. I would also say if you're looking for a elaborate invitation, probably not the best bet for you. The templates that they offer are pretty simple, but that's fine, and you are able to brand them. So it's kind of like what you're looking for. If you're looking for quick functionality and being able to track people and follow up with event reminders, great. But if you're looking for a beautiful invitation, it's probably not for you.

Jason: Hi, my name is Jason. I am a lieutenant for a police department in Colorado. I give Whova a five out of five. For more reviews like this, please click below. So I was first exposed to Whova about two years ago while attending a pretty large scale conference in another state. And just a couple of months after, I was to help plan and organize another conference here in the state. Whova was very helpful in that it really saved our time and resources, helped with attending networking, and also, it was a huge aid in communication between conference organizers and attendees, exhibitors and attendees. And then, again, as I mentioned, that networking between the attendees themselves. What I like best about Whova is the reliance on the digital, technology, and cellphones. We've really gone away from written agendas, curriculums, and in-person registration. So the Whova app allows you to do all these things over the phone. You can do virtual check-ins. You can facilitate dialogue and discussion with attendees with the app itself. As I mentioned before, I've used Whova for a couple of years, both as a user and then a coordinator administrator, and I really can't think of anything negative to say about the application itself. It really, again, has allowed us to save our time and resources, and devote energy towards interacting with attendees at the conference.
