### "Bizzabo Makes Our Life Easier Everyday! "

August 20, 2025

4.0

My company had Bizzabo for a year and thoroughly enjoyed it. Unfortunately the next year our budget got cut and we suffered significantly without our event software. We are so excited to be back on the platform and during our absence the platform has improved with new capabilities - overall we're so happy to have Bizzabo as a partner in all things event management!

Pros

Ease of use for building events, websites, emails. It's very simple and user friendly to build out these aspects and as someone who is not well versed in email campaigns and web development - this is a huge advantage to using bizzabo.

Cons

The website builder is very limited in its assets available. The only Custom Element is still pretty restrictive and can be problematic when needing a more dynamic website for events.

### "IANS/Bizzabo"

November 11, 2025

5.0

I feel like Bizzabo is very easy to work with. I’ve worked with a few other event management systems, and Bizzabo has been the easiest to build out, for the whole team to learn, and my Bizzabo team has been so helpful in making sure they help me with any product questions. My development team has also had a great time working with it in the backend to make sure Bizzabo meets our needs.

Pros

I love the usability and the UI of Bizzabo, for both my team and attendees. Everyone has had an easy time learning how to use it, and it overall looks so nice for our clients The integration of the widget on our website

Cons

I feel like the reporting and analytics could be stronger. I know there was recently an update on that, but I have a hard time finding the information I need regarding mobile app statistics and who’s visiting what. Specifically who’s looking at our sponsor pages, etc.

### "A win is a win."

October 31, 2025

3.0

Overall, my experience was positive. I'm looking forward to another year within our contract, but would really love to know of upcoming updates well in advance, in the future.

Pros

In comparison to our previous platform... I'd say the tech support is way more SUPPORTIVE than we expected. The around-the-clock communication made things very easy.

Cons

I feel that there were some features we thought were included in our package, or at least our sales representative communicated to us, but realistically weren't, which led us to use third-party programs instead of keeping everything within the event app.

### "5 Stars for Bizzabo"

August 13, 2025

5.0

I've had a great experience with Bizzabo. We have used it for 3-4 years now, and it has been a great process. The team is great and responsive.

Pros

I find Bizzabo is easy to use and provides a great user interface. Our customers have been satisfied with our registration platform and app since moving to Bizzabo.

Cons

I am looking forward to when the paid session add-on feature is available. That will solve the only 'problem' we have.

### "Good for our needs"

May 22, 2025

4.0

overall pretty good, room for improvement but we have been using it for the last 4 years and like the platform

Pros

Functionality with email outreach capabilities. We like being able to email groups we need to email and be able to follow up directly with registrants and attendees.

Cons

I wish we could create tracking links within Bizzabo for outreach instead of us having to use UTMs that we create.

### "Room for Improvement"

August 8, 2025

3.0

I would prefer if Bizzabo could make more customizations for an individual business. It's very tedious.

Pros

The check-in app is very user-friendly. It gets a lot more complicated when connecting to badge printers, though.

Cons

Very lengthy process to set up an event and any change in information needs to be updated in multiple areas, increasing the room for errors.

### "Prior User Review"

December 5, 2024

4.0

I enjoyed the platforms UI a lot - it made it very easy for first time users to set up events.

Pros

It was a very simple platform to use for registration and session scheduling.

Cons

When I used the platform, I was unable to create custom reports, which is important for my role. Additionally, the ability to overwrite email addresses already in use (like if an assistant registered a speaker using their email address, and then registered themselves using the same email address) was difficult as it impacted Speaker Profiles and created churn on the backend. If it's not been implemented, I would strongly recommend a flag that does not allow two users to use the same email address on one event.

### "Not that happy with BB"

February 11, 2025

3.0

Its hardly preferred among other apps, some peeps work with Teams but keep all advertising with BB.

Pros

I like that it has multiple functionalities

Cons

it has a lot of bugs, for example: 1. When duplicate a module form the page it duplicates the information in both modules. Erasing the other. 2. Buttons doesn't accept accents in letters, for spanish is grammarly wrong to write without accents. 3. It crashes when having other apps in your desktop ON.

### "Global Events Manager there's got to a better way to do ERCs"

December 5, 2024

3.0

Average at best and having work with competitive product not one that I would advocate for.

Pros

The interface of the templates and ticket set up worked well

Cons

The clunky set up of the ERC, the lack of ability to duplicate tasks across multiple events. The lack of ability to have sponsors upload items and then when decline resubmit. The intergration of the links and websites into tasks, the inability to included images in tasks for sponsors. The fact that sponsor input would override key information that was visible to the public. The set up of the overall ERC was a complete pain and not anything I would recommend.

### "Ultra customisable event management"

December 10, 2024

4.0

Pros

Great platform for the actual live event, lots of customisation available, a true all-in-one event management platform.

Cons

Can be quite confusing and overwhelming with all of the different options available and takes quite a bit of training to understand it all. Have had a lot of technical issues with live events - it seems that the success of an event is very heavily reliable on the quality of speaker's wifi/equipment.

### "Bizzabo from an EO's POV"

January 30, 2024

3.0

Happy with the product, customer team are nice but not based in Asia and turn around time can be slow which causes problems when onsite with an event.

Pros

easy to use and set up from marketing, to registration to event communication and information.

Cons

turn around on getting fixes for programming bugs is very slow and sometimes not possible for some critical errors eg. if a speaker has changed jobs since they spoke at your previous event, the system will pull their old job and not dynamically update so they are listed incorrectly.

### "New kid on the block "

June 8, 2022

4.0

Pros

I think the UI is beautiful and its relatively easy to teach yourself how to use the tool. I do wish that they had a training course that we could enroll in with a live teacher or a series of recorded sessions to watch and learn how to use the tool.

Cons

There are weird things that the tool doesn't do like add on passes that I think is a huge miss. Most conferences have these sorts of ticket options and bizzabo has terrible workarounds.

### "Best Event Management Software on the Market"

March 4, 2020

5.0

Overall, I have had a great experience using Bizzabo and working with their team to build our custom app. Their support team is also great.

Pros

Bizzabo is exceptionally user-friendly. The platform is easy to use and makes life as an event planner much more manageable. The reports and analytics are transparent, and exporting necessary data is seamless.

Cons

The Bizzabo website editor could be more customizable. I also do not like that push notifications cannot be edited. If you have a typo, you have to delete the notification and re-create it. However, Bizzabo continues to update the platform and adds more features, so I think this will be fixed soon.

December 5, 2024

3.0

Pros

Intuitive interfacer within the tool, I thought it was very easy to navigate. Also there's great documentation provided by the company around integrations.

Cons

Integration to Marketo was constantly breaking with no long term solutions from the support team despite the issue being consistent. Also, Bizzabo forms don't have contingency logic. ex: If Country > is US then Show the State field, if not, keep State field hidden.

August 23, 2024

5.0

Overall positive with a few minor issues that can be easily solved

Pros

Generally easy to use and it looks nice for users.

Cons

On event pages it forces you to capitalise the first letter of each word in the title, which is grammatically incorrect! People also fairly frequently report a 404 error message when clicking on event pages, but this tends to resolve itself quickly.

5.0

In the first 1.5 years, we experienced many software and hardware failures that severely impacted our business. Based on feedback we provided, we have seen an improvement in both. We appreciate that there is always a U.S. based person /account rep to work with us.

Pros

The attentiveness of the product support and customer service teams. Very dedicated to our partnership.

Cons

Development timelines and promises never seem to materialize. Many features we have asked for since inception in 2022 are still not available.

Reason for choosing Bizzabo

August 16, 2022

5.0

Bizzabo has been an amazing partner these last couple years. The platform sells itself, but the accounts team is a pleasure to work with. They are attentive and collaborative; and always seek to help our needs.

Pros

The intuitive platform features make creating event registration sites and websites quick and seamless.

Cons

My team hosts a lot of award events where guests purchase tables. If there was a more seamless registration feature to facilitate table planning that would be extremely helpful.

### "Fantastic! "

January 9, 2018

5.0

Pros

As an event manger for a large non-profit, we were desperately in need of an updated ticketing and registration site for our 100+ regionally and nationally and nationally hosted events per year. We needed something that staff members would feel comfortable with and could pick up without extra training/coding/website knowledge. We did our due diligence, looking into about a dozen platforms before narrowing down to our top three for sales pitches, trial accounts, etc. In the end, we chose Bizzabo and couldn't be more thrilled with our decision. Their software is simple and easy to use, yet robust and meets all of our needs. The sites are clean and modern looking. The app build is quick and seamless in how it works with the website, not needing to duplicate copy or set up a separate experience. This was a huge time and cost saver for us. Perhaps most importantly, their customer support is unparalleled; this includes their customer success managers and their web support team. Both have taken the time to get to know us personally and as an organization, and keep our needs and parameters in mind. They are quick, responsive, incredibly kind, and knowledgeable in their product. I could truly write pages on how valuable their customer support team is. I sing Bizzabo's praises any chance I get.

Cons

I wish there was a way to accept onsite payment. I want to acknowledge that Bizzabo was upfront with us during the contracting stage that this wasn't something they offered, as their services are largely pre-event focused (ticketing, registration, etc). We absolutely knew this wasn't included, but my wishful thinking is that it did exist.

### "Great Conference Manager"

March 25, 2024

5.0

Pros

Bizzabo is great for keeping track of registrants for events. Everything from collecting payments to issuing refunds, and even managing speakers. The user interface is really intuitive and easy to use. The website editor is simple but gets the job done in an effective way, it's been really useful for setting up event websites.

Cons

There are some processes which are more difficult than they need to be. It would be great to be able to sort registrants by custom fields, rather than having to export and then do that manually in excel. The branding options are somewhat limited, and I would prefer to have more customization in general.

January 23, 2024

4.0

Pros

It's easy to register and view/manage registrations. Appreciate the ability to transfer, cancel, refund, and upgrade tickets with ease. Creating our own registration form is useful!

Cons

Customer service could be improved. I've found myself waiting an extended period of time for answers without following up from the service representative.

We received great support from \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\]. He gave good suggestions and tips on how to utilize the platform. This actually shows Bizzabo not only focus on how much we are going to spend with them but added a human touch that they care if our event success or not.

Pros

They provide 1 stop solution for events from in-person to hybrid.

Cons

Their speaker portal can be complicated for those who are not familiar with tech.

September 15, 2022

5.0

Our model is to hold in person educational events, and when they all got canceled in 2020 we needed a backup. Bizzabo was easy to learn, easy to use, and helped us get back to educating folks like we want to.

Pros

What I like most is how easy the software is to use, it is intuitive and our attendees enjoy the platform

Cons

Setting up virtual exhibit booths with workarounds, we wish there were a more straightforward option.

Reason for choosing Bizzabo

We had a fantastic sales person who really set the positive tone with our experience with bizzabo. That plus the features and affordable cost.
