### "vFairs platform completely failed to deliver for our event"

May 7, 2020

1.0

We approached vFairs with a view to delivering 3 events for us over a 3 month duration. The initial impression of the platform was very good, and whilst aesthetically it looked a little dated, it was technically capable of replicating the key aspects of our events in a virtual environment. However, the reality is that vFairs completely failed to deliver the service and functionality promised. On the day, the platform wasn’t finished; several of the key features didn’t work, and the UX and client experience was completely unacceptable. On a call, a member of staff intimated that in trying to exploit the rush to virtual events (as a result of the Covid pandemic) vFairs have severely over-stretched their capacity. This was certainly reflected in our experience, and it is clear that the resources vFairs allocated to the project has not been adequate. 4 weeks prior to delivery we highlighted severe reservations about our project management, and the UK team (who negotiated the sale) had escalated our concerns to senior management and the \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\], but despite assurances that additional resources would be committed, they still failed to deliver a functioning platform on the day of the conference.

Pros

Theoretically, vFairs as a platform is able to replicate the key value of our conferences in a virtual environment. It can: 1. host content, presentations, Q&A and panels, 2. facilitate business engagement between buyers and sellers, 3. Provide delegate interaction. The problem is that these functions simply didn’t work properly.

Cons

On the day of the event, the platform wasn’t finished and critical features were missing or dysfunctional: the exhibitor booths were incomplete, the chat function didn’t work properly and the competitions didn’t run as instructed. The content delivery was also unacceptable: vFairs streamed the video content in such low resolution that the text and graphics on many of the slides was illegible, while some speakers were barely recognisable. There was not enough vFairs staff to run the event properly, and those that were in charge of hosting the content weren’t properly briefed and equipped to do their job. The vFairs staff didn’t understand the times and format of the sessions; the presentation videos weren’t ready at the required time, and in multiple cases vFairs staff didn’t even seem to know they were hosting the session. In one instance a vFairs representative announced to one of our clients that not only had they failed to get the video ready, but their bandwidth was so low that they weren’t confident they could download it in time for the session starting. Events are all about the user experience, and unfortunately the functionality and service standards were so poor that the UX was severely compromised.

### "Great platform and even better service"

June 14, 2022

5.0

The customer service is top notch. I have never worked with a group of people that are so easy to get along with, that know what they are doing and are able to assist you without any delay. I am grateful for our Project Manager, \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\], that we have been working with for a few years now. There isn't an issue she cant resolve or take care of. She is quick to respond to emails and can get work done on short notice. Grateful for the service we have received all these years.

Pros

Vfairs makes it easy to put on a virtual event. They offer a variety of options and make it easy to get creative with their constant updates to designs and offerings. The software is easy to use once you've worked on it a few times. The platform has the ability to be as complex as you want or as simple, allowing you to design to your constituents needs. We will continue working with vfairs.

Cons

I don't think there's anything we don't like about the software. It works for us and we are happy with it.

Reason for choosing vFairs

The price and capabilities it offers. The customer service from the beginning drew us to them and they continued to maintain that level of support throughout.

### "vFairs Has Few Rivals"

June 10, 2022

5.0

vFairs provided us a professional look and feel for a virtual conference that I believe our Members and guests truly appreciated.

Pros

The gamification within vFairs is SUPERIOR! I wish I could use vFairs for every event just to use the leader board.

Cons

The online registration process required us to do more work than was necessary, in my humble opinion. Integration with our existing merchant processing was costly and inefficient.

### "PDN - Professional Diversity Network - vFairs Review 2018"

October 22, 2018

5.0

vFairs just ‘gets’ our business. The customer service they provide simultaneously to our own sales reps while communicating to multiple teams under each valued customer, is beyond commendable. We have worked with vFairs as our exclusive Virtual vendor since 2013 primarily due to his teams high level of professionalism, integrity, outstanding customer support and responsiveness. Their accuracy, speed and meticulous attention to detail is incomparable. I have not seen better. Every Virtual vFairs has produced for us has been smoothly run and when difficulties arise, as they do, vFairs Customer Support suggested conference meetings to get entire Teams trained, individual leadership calls, recommended specific, positive changes and in general, a swift ironing out of problems with every question answered and understood to the teams’ satisfaction and managements delight. Their Customer Support team does the heavy lifting answering complex technical questions and has identified problems early heading off deeper issues. They are a truly amazing team and have supported our customers 24 x7 by phone and email! vFairs offers a gentle approach when working with all levels of our clients’ hierarchy. Very appreciated. PDN provides 67% of the USA Fortune 500 companies diversity recruiting efforts via online and onsite products and vFairs has been an integral and successful component to our product suite. vFairs receives my greatest respect.

Pros

vFairs creative and sophisticated graphic appeal for customers and our candidates alike. Ease of use and the fact that vFairs conducted the entire set up, training, questions answered accurately and deployment in a timely and extremely professional manner. The product works great and customers received full technical support and reporting post event.

Cons

We experienced no problems with this software. All was wonderfully handled by vFairs leadership and Customer Support.

### "Event Mobile Apps for Everyone"

October 23, 2023

5.0

Pros

I liked that the mobile app was customized for both the association and its attendees. Even though all components did not fit our needs, vFairs was flexible enough to work with us and make an app that would allow us and our attendees to process & deliver information needed. Our Project Manager was very helpful and quick to implement updates needed in order to make sure the app was completed and LIVE in time for our event.

Cons

I would have preferred to be able to make updates on my own to the app but in the long run it all worked out.

### "vFairs, the Virtual Fair Platform of Choice!"

September 24, 2020

5.0

We love our partnership with vFairs! Their customer service and attention to detail drive the partnership forward. When we 1st started hosting virtual events through vFairs a couple years ago, I was a novice on the platform with little prior experience in this space. Two years and 4 events later, I am a Project Manager for our dept. for this event and love the experience of bringing a 1,000+ attendee virtual event to our student population. vFairs is constantly improving and updating their product and the expanded options truly differentiate their services to our employer partners. If you are looking for your next (or first!) virtual fair vendor, vFairs is definitely the way to go!

Pros

For the software, we especially appreciated the ADA accommodations, vFairs attention to detail, customization options, text/video/audio capability options, and mobile compatibility, resume filter options, virtual booth variety, and embedded video capability.

Cons

The webinar process for exhibitors could be improved. Although this may be challenging given the integration with Zoom, bringing this capability in-house could be a way to improve that aspect. Employer "Leave a Message" follow-up e-mails could use consolidating so that exhibitors are not sent too many applicant e-mails over an extended period. Making chat times mandatory for exhibitors to provide a clearer picture to attendees and administrators.

Reason for choosing vFairs

Our university decided to partner with vFairs for the following (unordered) reasons: Relatively inexpensive pricing, ADA accommodations, history of excellent customer service, their attention to detail, customization options, text/video/audio capability options, and mobile compatibility.

The staff at vFairs are professional, responsive, and personable. There is always an actual person on the other end of my emails, phone calls and meetings.

Pros

Innovative features and functionality, project management and customer support.

Cons

Communicating with the design team to articulate my unique and specific vision was difficult, which stretched deployment. However, I realized my use case was not typical, and every effort was made to capture my vision.

Reason for choosing vFairs

I looked at a lot of platforms and vFairs had the best aesthetics and the most robust features.

### "Botanica2022 virtual conference and trade show hosted by vfairs"

June 28, 2022

5.0

This third event with Vfairs confirmed once more that for our virtual conference needs, they are without the perfect fit. What is most impressive is the level of attention to detail, commitment, patience and professionalism on the part of all team members, especially with regards our project Manager \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] who accompanied us through every step right through to post-event support. As an event host and organiser it is wonderful to have complete confidence and peace of mind that all will run smoothly when the event goes live. With VFairs this is possible. We added extra functionalities and new features to this conference edition and were delighted with the results. We are continuing to receive great feedback from all who participated; delegates, speakers, sponsors, exhibitors.

Pros

This was our third event hosted by Vfairs - we came back this year mainly for the high level of professional support that the vfairs team provides with all aspects of virtual conference creation and management prior to, during and post event. What I love is that visually, all design and functionality of the platform makes a great impression on attendees and that is is extremely user friendly even for those who are not used to using virtual technology.

Cons

none I can think of. This is the closest to an in-person experience that we could expect to achieve.

### "vFairs Provides an Engaging Experience"

June 3, 2022

5.0

Using vFairs has allowed us to make a global onboarding process that is engaging, informative, and very well received by our new caregivers.

Pros

vFairs is easy to use, very customizable, and allowed us to create an engaging virtual live experience. Our contacts at vFairs , especially our Project Manager \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] , are amazing: very responsive and helpful in all aspects of design, configuration, and the day-to-day operations of our weekly event.

Cons

Since we have a weekly event, we were interested in triggering automated emails to the weekly groups--- vFairs is working on ways to help us do that in a more automated way. That said, we're still able to do this with just a few clicks!

### "If you know, you know!"

March 19, 2024

5.0

From the very beginning we were given focused support with plenty of training and assistance to pull off a major event in a short period of time. The platform and service are solid but, what sets vFairs apart are knowledgeable support team members and individualized handholding. Truly bar none!

Pros

To say the support received is the best would be a gross understatement. Many products and platforms offer exciting and engaging virtual experiences but the individualized and immediate support we receive with vFairs has left us totally impressed.

Cons

We are able to customize several aspects of the platform but there are a few minor items that would help ensure a flawless event. Nothing critical but as an example, a hybrid admin/attendee persona would be helpful for us.

Reason for choosing vFairs

The platform provided a virtual space that felt more inclusive and professional.

### "Awesome Product!"

November 29, 2022

5.0

Our Project Manager \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] is awesome! Great response time to requests and changes we needed. This year we didn't get started as soon as we wanted, but \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\]made it all come together in record time.

Pros

There was a learning curve the first year we used vFairs for our event, but our \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] was amazing! We went through weekly training sessions with her. By the end of the training I was able to complete the setup for our event. This time was so much easier. The fact that you can keep the information from the previous event is so helpful! The reports give us everything we need and more.

Cons

I do not know of anything that needs changing. I would say it would be great to have more access to the backend of the website so I could make some of the edits without bothering the project manager so much.

Reason for choosing vFairs

Our corporate offices chose vFairs. I'm sure they did all the hard work vetting other products before making the decision.

It has been an amazing experience, better than what we were ever expecting or anticipating. The vFairs team, our project manager \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] and his team, have been fabulous. Very creative and open to ideas and finding ways to implement ideas or solutions for issues that come up unexpectedly. Kept on a timeline and made it all work. Very appreciative of everyone at vFairs.

Pros

Allows us to target a larger customer base. Allows for an unlimited amount of information providing even more than we can get with an in-person show.

Cons

In being a wholesale company, we have restrictions on the exhibitor booths, what vendors can see what booths and who can log into more than one booth. We have a work around but feel is not the most efficient for my exhibitors. Would like a way to be able to have a log in that would not restrict people from getting into more than one exhibitor booth for those that are specifically assigned to it. Not accessible to all booths, just those assigned to them.

Reason for choosing vFairs

Over 200+ booths, restrictions, animation graphics, customization. vFairs found a way to make it all work.

vfairs has been a collaborative partner throughout the various projects we mounted for PLDT. I really appreciate and feel lucky that the assigned PM to us was \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\]. Every request has been considered and she went above and beyond the deliverables. Her patience and understanding with the client demands in such short periods of time are greatly appreciated. I really made it a point to request for her to be my partner in the implementation process as I was sure she would be of great help not only to me but to the overall assurance that the project/s will run smoothly.

Pros

vFairs as an event platform is all-in-one, one-stop shop in terms of virtual platform requirements. It is also our first time as an events agency to use a virtual platform to monitor registrants for the physical component, and the vFairs platform has been effective for that as well.

Cons

Overall, the virtual platform served its purpose for the functionalities it promised to deliver.

### "Feedback from KPMG India on the Event we executed using the VFairs app"

July 27, 2022

5.0

First and foremost would like to thank \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] who was my first poc when i started exploring event apps. Since our first connect he has made me feel at ease esp. when i bothered multiple times on the app features. His calm composure and confidence on the app ensure we go ahead with VFairs and he even went out of the way to make sure the app and the team was ready before the event timelines which was very short. Kudos to him and his skill sets. Next would really like to appreciate \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] and his skilled team. Osama was connected with us as a PMO and right from our first call he ensure that the app would be a success. We had abundant of doubts, queries, concerns with he addresses with calm and eventually helped us believe on the overall success of the event. He and his team were always available irrespective of the difference of time zones and they ensured not even a single of my query/request went unanswered esp. on the 3 days of the event, day and night. Would like to appreciate the team on the job very well done and making our KPMG India event app a huge success....Would really look forward to connect again in the future.

Pros

Ease of usage, smooth interface, beautiful UI and extremely user friendly. Basis few meeting, the app usage was smooth as butter and overall no issues on app usage and no erratic issues occurred even though the app was used by 500+ participants on external network.

Cons

The app has some features which can be further improvised like the new feed content loading/permissibility limit and some out of the box features should be available.

Reason for choosing vFairs

Better features and quick to market even though White-labeled

### "Amazing customer service and easy to use"

August 22, 2023

5.0

Pros

We switched over to vFairs in the fall of 2022 and it's one of the best decisions we've made. Let's talk about customer service first. From day 1, \[sensitive content hidden\] has been an absolute pleasure to work with. He is extremely knowledgable and was able to walk me through every step of the process. The timeframe to turn around our first virtual event was very short, but \[sensitive content hidden\] support throughout the entire build made the process so efficient and quick. He's very responsive and is always happy to support our efforts. I can't say enough good things about him - top notch customer service. Next let's review the platform. Prior to vFairs, our old platform was very clunky and it took so much time to set up an event. When I started working on the vFairs platform, I noticed the difference immediately. The amount of time it takes to build out an event is a fraction of what it was taking me on our old platform, and the user interface is so simple and easy to use. I love how our virtual booths are displayed to attendees and I'm even more impressed with how the agenda is presented on the landing page and within the environment.

Cons

I wouldn't say I dislike this about vFairs, it's more a "I wish I could do this" type of feedback. I wish I could easily update room templates on my own without bothering \[sensitive content hidden\] with that kind of request. He's very quick to get our requests in the queue when we do want to make changes, but it would be nice to be able to make the updates on our own.

### "Extremely amateurish"

July 16, 2021

1.0

Conferences are a very important part of academia, and like everywhere else, we have had to switch to online venues. It is clear that vFairs has absolutely no experience with academic conferences, or that they have ever tried to attend one of the events they organised. The interface is extremely clunky, it is nearly impossible to find other people, it is impossible to share informations with others (like, if you find someone in the chat, you cannot direct them to your presentation because it's not possible to even send a simple link to it). The purpose of a conference is to foster communication, but the Q&A interface next to each poster doesn't allow replying to questions... The live call provided by Whereby is okay, but opens in a new window, so you cannot show your poster at the same time unless you share you own screen... And there is no way of knowing if the live call room is populated before you join, with camera and sound on by default... In short, vFairs is just a collection of pre-existing tools haphazardly put together, without any integration... the live support present during the conference is here only to tell users that the obvious functionality that their looking for is actually not implemented...

Pros

Nothing really. The whole operation seems like a scam.

Cons

All looks and zero functionality. I guess they convince organisers by showing fancy 3D conference center images... which serve absolutely no purpose. They should have spent less time on this, and more time on making their website usable.

### "A successful inaugural launch of the vFairs online platform and mobile app"

May 31, 2023

5.0

The successful launch of the vFairs platform was completed in approximately 4 months. It would not be possible without vFairs' dedicated project manager and team members. It was truly a delightful partnership. Look forward to our continued collaboration and effort to make the 2024 convention even a bigger success.

Pros

Excellent partnership supported by very responsive and highly skilled project manager and technical team.

Cons

The basic vFairs platform was not able to support the complex structure of our program. However, vFairs was able to adapt the platform to meet our needs. The work that vFairs did within a very short period of time was truly amazing.

### "Botanica2022 Review"

June 9, 2022

5.0

\[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] was our project manager and he was absolutely fantastic to work with, the support he gave was awesome, nothing was too much trouble and he was calm and confident so we felt we could trust him completely. The support given my vFairs is always excellent and that is why we continue to use them

Pros

This is our third time using vFairs and we are very comfortable with the platform. The addition of new applications is constantly improving, we particularly enjoyed the 'fun' applications such as the photo booth and treasure hunt. Simultaneous translation was fantastic for our delegates who are international

Cons

It may be helpful for other/future events to have a 'What to do if things go wrong' guide for users? As an administrator you do answer the same questions, log-in not working, browser difficulties etc

We had a great experience working with Hassaan. He was very patient and thorough. He was very quick to respond to all of our emails and answered any questions we had. We would love to work with Hassaan again.

Pros

vFairs has been very user-friendly. It was a great option for us during the pandemic and we had such a great experience, that we wanted to use it again this year to give our clients flexible options.

Cons

None to think of. We have had a great experience.
