President Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great for Cross-country bike ride. " July 6, 2023 5.0 We have struggled in finding a good app to use for our events to communicate with thousands of people across the country. Pros We love the ability to post many events and ease to provide event updates. Cons Sometimes our imports get a little tedious to be able to manipulate the information for our events. Review Source Response from Yapp August 16, 2023 Thanks for your note, Basil. One of our team members here at Yapp uses the product for a San Francisco-to-Los Angeles charity ride, so its great to hear from a customer with a similar use case! AS Allee S. Director of Grassroots and Advocacy Communications Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Built to not break the bank, and attendees loved it" July 21, 2025 5.0 Pros Yapp gives you all the essential event app features (custom schedules, speaker bios, social feed and photo collection, push notifications/announcements) for an extremely affordable price. With a tight nonprofit event budget, every dollar we spend on technology like this is a dollar we aren't spending on other important event aspects that add value to our participating and at-need community members. Yapp helped us add and create value at our event. Cons I wish that attendees had the ability to communicate directly with each other. The social feed was fun and valuable but our events would really benefit from people being able to send direct messages or create chat groups. If we use a different app in the future, it will likely be in order to leverage this feature. Alternatives considered [Sched](https://www.capterra.com/p/125306/Sched-org/) Reason for choosing Yapp Emphasis on social feed/wall and price drove the decision. Switched from [Webex Suite](https://www.capterra.com/p/237272/Webex/) We used Socio (acquired by WebEx Events) last year. However, since then, you now have to have an enterprise plan with WebEx and cannot purchase the mobile event app for single use. Review Source Response from Yapp July 23, 2025 Hi Allee, thanks for the detailed review. We're glad to be able to meet our budget-conscious customers where they are at, and provide them a world-class solution at price they can smile about! We'll keep your direct messaging wish list item in mind as we improve Yapp. AS Angela S. State Adviser Education Management Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great App!" April 14, 2026 5.0 It really helped our event run smoothly and keep everyone informed of details, changes and information. Pros Easy to set up and manage! Great product for the price. It really helped our conference run so much better. Cons It is so great for event management. The only thing was the limited access on the app to make changes. Alternatives considered [Whova](https://www.capterra.com/p/149712/Whova/) Reason for choosing Yapp Mostly because of cost. It was in our price range. Review Source HZ Hilda Z. Communication specialist Utilities Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Water's perspective" June 29, 2023 3.0 convenient Pros All Yapp features are of use to our company. Cons The fact that I cannot create or update from my desktop Review Source Response from Yapp July 7, 2023 Thanks for the short-but-sweet review, Hilda. GB Ginger B. Executive Director Government Administration Used the software for: 2+ years ### "If you need an APP FAST!" January 29, 2026 4.0 Very good, I had to set up in 3 days due to another platforms inability to follow through on some features. The customer service is PHENOMENAL and having the ability to receive answers from a real person is refreshing!! Pros If you want to quickly set an app with resources, and schedules this is PERFECT. The conference attendees were happy to have a maps and locations as the event location had a confusing layout. There was a little onboarding curve but they will be set for next year and I can also include the links created by Yapp to send to attendees in advance so they can download and peruse before the conference. Cons The design is a little outdated and the spreadsheet to upload information was a bit confusing with all the added columns. The process of adding attendee's photos seems arduous - but I am hoping that there is a good workaround that I just didn't have time to explore based on how quickly I had to set up. Switched from [RegFox](https://www.capterra.com/p/91029/RegFox/) They are unable to populate information is you have a hybrid event, the downloading process was extremely confusing for the attendee...we tried it out on a few people and it was a nightmare. You have to be able to access your email (that you registered with) on your phone to download the app, it send you a confirmation number and the list goes on. The issue for me was the hybrid piece, which was known from the moment I signed up with the salesmans but MORE IMPORTANTLY, my attendees do not all bring their work phones with them OR cannot access their work emails from their personal phones so that entire process is super difficult to navigate. Review Source HM Heather M. Volunteer Executive Office Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Yapp works great" April 14, 2026 4.0 Overall, I am pleased. It is easy to learn and easy to use. As an admin, I wish we could make changes on the app. I won't have my laptop with me all the time and I would like to change items as needed. (Maybe someone's name is misspelled, or we need to add info to a bio.) Pros Overall, Yapp is an easy-to-use app. I like that it is user-friendly and doesn't require a big learning curve. It has the tools needed to promote our event, which is exactly what we need. I like how we can showcase our agenda and let attendees know in advance what to expect at our conference. Cons I had trouble loading logos to our agenda page. I wanted to add sponsor logos under the description and had trouble on a few. It would help to indicate what format they should be in and have a way to edit the logo size. I also noticed that when I wanted to edit a few pages, there were banners across the wording I needed (for example, the date of my event was always over the word "edit") Some of the information we added didn't always save. We started hitting "publish" after each save to ensure the info was saved. Review Source CK Celestine K. Data Analyst Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Learning Curve" March 19, 2026 5.0 Great. I was a click away from know my program schedule. No more paper schedule. I scrolled through the app on each day activity. Pros I love the fact that I can upload documents so everyone can access with group emails. This app makes accountability a thing since everyone has to access document using their emails they use on the app by themselves. Cons I like the fact that I can upload a photo. However, it does not allow multiple photos upload at a time which makes it time consuming to upload many picture one at a time. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Emergency Management Government Administration Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "New kid with a small budget" March 24, 2026 4.0 It was a great experience! It was very easy to navigate from both the end-user and administrative perspectives. I also loved being able to get real-time data about session feedback. We will definitely utilize this platform next year! Pros With a limited budget for a small symposium, the app was exactly what we were looking for! It really helped provide our attendees with the most up-to-date information about vendors, speakers, and activities. Cons While most of our attendees had no issue downloading and setting up the app, some had trouble, such as being asked for payment or being asked for unnecessary information. Once we figured out to send them directly to the app store, we did not have those issues. I'm not sure if it was from our QR code or just a few hiccups during the rollout of new technology. Review Source SI Steve I. VP Corporate Comms Financial Services Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great app for all your needs" March 6, 2026 5.0 It was a great experience. As I mentioned it was easy to setup and make edits and the guests of the conference had no issue figuring out how to access and navigagte the app. Pros It was easy to use both from a abackedn setup perspective and from the end user's point of view. Everyone loved it and felt that it added to the overall conference. Cons I would like to be able to do a bit more customization of colors, graphics etc. Some of this may have been on me with not having the time to really explore the app, but a bit more customizing would be great. Review Source SJ Sally J. SEC treas Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Totally worth the price" April 27, 2026 4.0 Overall this is a very good app, it works well and is affordable. The set up is easy and is easy to share and download. Pros For the price it is a good designable site. Easy to work with. Simple design and clear instructions on how to set up. Cons Not as pretty as the expensive apps, need to do everything yourself. It is easier to have someone else design, but that costs more. Review Source JA Jonathan A. Tech Director Religious Institutions Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "The only cost effective solution I have found" September 28, 2022 4.0 Overall, it's a simple platform that helps structure data, display it helpfully, and update it in-realtime for conference attendees. Not as fancy or feature rich as other platforms, but by far the most affordable. Simple and effective. Pros It is a very easy solution to use and accomplishes the desire of having a conference "app". Worth the money and can be used simply for data distribution and communication, or you can use more advanced features if desired. Compared to all the other enterprise systems out there, this is the only one that is anywhere affordable for a non-profit event. Cons A little more customization on the app pages designed for just content display would be nice, but the more custom you can get the more complex it gets. A few more built-in themes or styles for the app structure/layout would be nice, but again, keeping it simple can actually be a blessing. More dynamic linking of data would be helpful (being able to create instances of items and then link to it throughout the app rather than having to recreate the data on different pages). Alternatives considered [Cvent Event Management](https://www.capterra.com/p/26318/Cvent-Event-Management/)[Whova](https://www.capterra.com/p/149712/Whova/) Reason for choosing Yapp Price and simplicity of setup and implementation. Review Source Response from Yapp October 10, 2022 Thanks for the review, Jonathan. We appreciate you sharing your thoughts about how Yapp can serve you better. We're determined to continue to improve the platform while keeping it priced reasonable for non-profits like you. PB Priscilla B. Senior Meeting Manager Events Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "A fantastic Addition to a Conference" December 16, 2022 5.0 Love it and when I share with my clients, they to love all the capabilities it offers especially for the price. Pros This program was easy to use and really liked that on each page you add to the right side it gives an example of how that page is used. Cons It would be nice if under the schedule, when you list a speaker that either there was a more button or something to indicate click here so you can see their contact, and bio. The way it shows now unless you accidentally clicked on it you wouldn't know. Another feature, I would pay for, would be to have the ability to pin room locations under the schedule to a map.

Switched from [Eventpedia](https://www.capterra.com/p/142091/Eventpedia/) Your product gave us just what we needed and fit the budget. Review Source Response from Yapp January 6, 2023 Thanks for leaving this review, Priscilla. We're glad that we found the sweet spot of features and price for JR. I like your suggestion of the room locations feature -- definitely something we will consider adding in the future! CU Caleb U. Marketing Strategist Insurance Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Yapp Review " January 30, 2023 5.0 I had/am having an amazing experience with Yapp. Customer service is exceptional! They always answer very quickly and get back to you with answers to any questions you have (or problems you encounter while editing your app). Shoutout to \[sensitive content hidden\] at Yapp for all his wonderful help! The user experience was also great. I was easily able to build my app by adding specific features. Yapp also has a help center where you can look up how to complete something (EX: how to upload attendees, overall tips & tricks, etc.) Pros Ease of use. Yapp has templated pages to use in the app so you do not have to build anything from scratch. (EX: polls, schedule, agenda, etc.). Additionally, any time you have a change to make to your app, it is completed in real-time and after "publishing" your changes, attendees who downloaded your app will see these new changes the next time they view the app. Cons Reporting features are good (EX: app usage, engagement stats) but I feel like a little more can be done here so administrators can dive deeper into the data to analyze. Alternatives considered [Whova](https://www.capterra.com/p/149712/Whova/) Reason for choosing Yapp One big reason was the price (much cheaper compared to Whova and what our company needed at the time).If you need an app for a specific company conference and want your attendees to have information at their fingertips in an easy way, Yapp is a great company to go with! Review Source Response from Yapp February 6, 2023 Thanks for the thorough review, Caleb. I especially appreciate that you called out our help center. It is a great resource to learn the ins and outs of Yapp. We look forward to working with your org for the years to come! IK IfiVezető K. CFO Civic & Social Organization Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Breathtakingly amazing product for surprisingly low cost" March 3, 2025 5.0 Yapp is extremely user-friendly for both event organizers and attendees. The platform features an intuitive uploader page, a clear and well-designed browser interface, and beautifully rendered graphics with easily embedded links. It’s highly customizable, and even the basic package offers robust features at an impressively low cost. As our event grows, there’s potential to explore higher packages for additional functionality, while the responsive developers continue to make the process a breeze. Pros The interface is incredibly intuitive, making it easy for both event organizers and attendees to navigate the platform. The uploader page is straightforward and efficient, streamlining content updates with minimal effort. Cons The desktop editing experience sometimes feels a bit cramped, but the main point is for phones so it's no biggie. Review Source Response from Yapp June 17, 2025 IfiVezető, we're blushing over here -- what a thoughtful and glowing review. All the details you point out are things that we lovingly worked at, so it's heartwarming that they are appreciated. We look forward to growing with you and your organization. TS Tiffany S. Program Assistant Education Management Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "YAPP is user friendly" June 25, 2025 5.0 We used Yapp for our most recent conference. It worked well Pros I thought the platform was user friendly Cons N/A Review Source Response from Yapp June 30, 2025 Simple but sweet, review — thank you! We have worked hard to make Yapp easy to use.  SS Susie S. Co-Producer Events Services Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Our Yapp App was a Huge Success!" April 20, 2023 5.0 The directions for app set-up were very clear and covered most of our needs. We were able to get quick answers when needed from the chat support. The app made it much easier for attendees to choose and find the activities they wanted to participate in. We didn't know what to expect, since this was our first year using an app, but we were surprised and thrilled that almost half of our attendees/staff downloaded the app. It was well worth the time and money we invested and we will definitely use Yapp for our next event. Pros It took much less time than I expected to transfer the information from our web site to our new Yapp App. The clear directions and page templates made it easy to set up. Attendees loved the easy access on their phones, and used the app mostly to check our schedule of activities. Yapp allows the end user to create their own personal schedule. People also checked out vendor, presenter, and performer details on the app, and used the maps to find classrooms and vendor booths. Event management also found themselves referring to the app throughout the weekend. Cons I would like to have our own event icon on the user's home screen instead of the Yapp icon. We also found the "personal schedule" icon in the app was difficult to find, but once you found it was tremendously helpful. This was our first year using an app, and we would like to explore more of the announcement and social media features at our next event. Reason for choosing Yapp We heard about Yapp through another event. While we did research other app software, it was a clear choice to use Yapp when we saw how easy it was to set up. Review Source Response from Yapp May 17, 2023 Wow, thanks for the great review, Susie. I'm so glad that you had such a great first-year experience! VE Vivian E. National Assessment & Academic Coordinator Education Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Need an App get the Yapp App" December 6, 2022 5.0 My overall experience has been very positive. Since day one, the staff at Yapp App has been very supportive and very quick to respond to any of the questions I had in terms of using the app and the features it provided. The chat feature they have is great and they respond to you quite quickly. Also, it is very cost-effective for what you get and you can choose to add additional apps if you decide you need more. I also like that once you retire an app, you have the ability to archive it. Pros This app has allowed me to seamlessly communicate with the attendees of our annual leadership summit. It was easy to learn how to use this app. There is no coding involved and each section can be customized to your liking. You can load schedules, bios, pictures, PDF, videos, etc. It also has instant messaging that allows you to quickly push out notifications. I love that you can create your content and when you are ready, you can simply push the publish button. We have also used it for other teams as well not just for our leadership summit. Cons I wish you could add a registration feature to the app with the ability to cap the attendees at a certain number for each workshop being offered. Possibly pushing this feature out first, before the entire contents of the app are populated. Reason for choosing Yapp Our company hosted a leadership conference at a hotel in south Florida and as the event planner, they recommended we use the Yapp App that they were offering. I tried it and decided to launch it here in our organization for other content areas. Review Source Response from Yapp January 6, 2023 Thank you for the great review, Vivian. We're happy to be able to be of service to Imagine Schools in the various uses you have found for Yapp. We hear you about session registration features and it is something we hope to address in the future. NS Nicholaus S. Instructional Technology Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "YAPP will make rocket your conference from "awesome" to "stellar!"" June 12, 2018 5.0 Great customer support! Customer support is great. If the builder of the app does their part, you will end up with a fantastic product. Your apps can feature -discussion boards -picture walls (perfect for Selfie stations) -Twitter feed monitoring -Conference/event scheduling -A place to house your documents and maps (awesome for conference portability) -A customization engine that cements the professionalism of your organization Pros YAPP features an easy and intuitive user interface for creating a professional-looking mobile app which has TONS of functionality. I have been using the service for years, and have built multiple conference apps with it, all for public education, curriculum, instruction and leadership. If you look around at conferences, just about everyone will have their faces buried in their phones, tablets or laptops. You might as well capture their "digital attention" with your content. I love the YAPP message boards, picture walls, Twitter feeds, and, as an event organizer, the ability to set up session information and schedules. If your users log into the system, they can also build customized itineraries of breakout sessions to attend as well as their locations, streamlining end-user access to your conference sessions. On the back end, the customer service with YAPP is amazing. they have always had my back if I need their help. Sure, the platform subscription is expensive up front, but that plan will service most organizations that don't have the resources to custom-sourced their own mobile app from the ground up. Further, you can build UNLIMITED apps with an unlimited user pool. Cons Entering the conference session data can be tedious, and there is really no way around this. However, if you use a spreadsheet to build your initial conference schedule layout, session description, location, and other pertinent data-- you can then use that spreadsheet to import your sessions with direct mapping. This saves you a big step when it comes to conference design, but it only works if you begin with the end product in mind and make that spreadsheet from the origins of the conference planning stages.

We'll keep your session check-in needs in mind and hope to address that in a future update. LT Lynn T. Executive Director Education Management Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Use of Yapp for a community leadership program" April 25, 2023 5.0 Communication output is easy- a one-stop shop. And we save lots of trees!! Pros The app was very easy to adapt to our specific operational requirements, such as listing of participants with their business contact information; promotion of sponsors; detailing agendas for our program days; reference contact information of our board members; and ability to quickly notify participants of last minute changes in programs. In addition, participants have the ability to download specific forms and instructions that they wish to save in hard copy. Cons Lack of ability to customize each page (graphics, etc); lack of ability to download all saved pictures as a group; lack of ability to poll group so that results are not publicized to entire group. Review Source Response from Yapp May 17, 2023 Excellent and thorough review, Lynn. Regarding downloading all saved pictures as a group -- this is a feature we introduced last year.

Owner Events Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great no code solution for having a mobile app" July 21, 2023 5.0 Very good product, meets all my needs, maybe more. Pros Developing your own app is timely, costly, and has many hurdles to overcome. Yapp app takes all that away with it's no code solution to developing and maintaining a mobile app. Good set of features, I including some that I haven’tused yet and hope to soon in the future. Cons The product, in my opinion is a bit costly, especially for the size of event I run. Review Source Response from Yapp August 16, 2023 Thanks for your note, Michael. We're glad you're enjoying the app and its features. We'll work hard to keep delivering on the value! AP Alan P. Educational Media Coordinator Education Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Yapp App Review" August 14, 2023 5.0 The benefits of using Yapp with yearly events/conferences allows participants to stay up to date on what is happening throughout the event/conference and plan their time to get maximum benefit from the experience. Pros I like the ease of being able to create a schedule in Microsoft Excel and then upload to the Yapp editor. This feature is easy to implement and by far what makes using Yapp for events/conferences stand out for me and my organization. Cons I honestly cannot find anything that I do not like about Yapp. I have been using it for 3 events in my organization for many years, and it always preforms well. Review Source Response from Yapp August 25, 2023 Thanks for the great review, Alan. I'm glad our import feature has worked so well for you and your org! AP Alfio P. IT Consultant Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Yapp Has Been an Efficient Event Management Tool" April 24, 2024 5.0 Pros Yapp is a reliable solution for proper event management. I like the ease of use of Yapp. Cons Yapp meets our needs. I like the efficiency of Yapp. Review Source Response from Yapp June 17, 2025 Thanks for the efficient review about our efficient product! ;-) AN Alberto N. Sales support Food & Beverages Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Very high value for money " April 2, 2023 4.0 We managed to schedule periodical business meetings in a smart way also with coworkers that are not in the office Pros The best thing about yapp is the possibility to create an Event and to schedule business meetings Where everyone is always updated about the meeting. For the price it is very worth it Cons The reports are not so useful but a good nice to have in the end Review Source Response from Yapp April 21, 2023 We strive to be the best value in the industry, so I appreciate you noting this in your review, Alberto. I would love to learn more about what you are hoping to see in our analytics/reports. Please do reach out to our support team and let them know. JE Jeff E. Communications Manager Government Relations Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Our members love Yapp" October 10, 2022 5.0 We've been with them for a long time. Their customer experience is amazing. It would take a lot to convince me to spend what other apps charge when this one gives us all we want for so little. Pros As the administrator, I find it relatively easy to upload full schedules and other mass data, rather than keystroking things in one at a time. Cons Really nothing. We ask our members how to improve it and they don't think up much of a list. More ability for the end user to customize it is usually what they ask for - like creating their own schedule, but even more. Reason for choosing Yapp We're small, so budget was a huge consideration, but it also gives us so much, I just don't see a reason to switch. Review Source Response from Yapp November 9, 2022 Thanks for being a long-time customer, Jeff. We're serious about delivering an unbeatable value proposition, and we're glad to hear that it is a good fit for your organization. I like the the idea of improving capabilities for end users. That's definitely something we can strive for.
