### "Outstanding Support from \[sensitive content hidden\] "

July 16, 2025

5.0

Pros

\[sensitive content hidden\] was absolutely incredible and provided some of the best customer service I’ve experienced in a long time. From the very beginning, it was clear I was speaking with a real person—not an AI bot, not a generic help desk, and definitely not a dial pad maze. That in itself was refreshing, but what truly stood out was his genuine, thoughtful, and responsive approach. As someone fairly new to AddEvent, I was trying to figure out how to pre-vet attendees for an event—something that wasn't straightforward. \[sensitive content hidden\] didn’t just provide a standard answer; he listened, asked the right questions, and worked with me to find a creative, workable solution that met my needs and timeline. His knowledge of the platform, combined with his problem-solving mindset and fast responses, made all the difference. He truly treated my issue like it mattered and made me feel like a valued client every step of the way. Huge thanks to \[sensitive content hidden\] for his dedication, service, and commitment to helping customers succeed. He turned what could’ve been a frustrating situation into a smooth, positive experience.

Cons

Honestly, the only thing I didn’t love was that I couldn’t figure it out on my own—but that was definitely user error, not a fault of the platform. Once I connected with support, everything made sense and worked exactly as I needed.

### "Satisfied, but would like to pay a little less "

October 23, 2025

5.0

My experience has been good, I used AddEvent for four years at my last company and immediately recommended it to my new client. We are getting moderate use out of it and overall I’m happy with the tool.

Pros

Ease of use, ability to clone events, multiple options for people to add the events to their calendars (calendar button and landing page), being able to set reminders, scheduling features and the details I can add to each event.

Cons

The cost is a bit higher than I would like. I understand the value of the product but I do wish there was a slightly lower paid tier.

### "Reminders/Alerts do not function, if you need this, stay away from this product"

October 1, 2023

2.0

Pros

ease of use, this was easy enough to understand

Cons

Unfortunately this products 'reminders/alerts' for events do not work in clients calendars. This is something they advertise that their product is capable of, but it's not.We tried multiple times to troubleshoot this ourselves, with our clients and had no success. In fact, even when clients tried to manually adjust the events in their own calendars this failed. We then contacted Addevent and their response was it was a problem with all the major calendars not their product....welp Addevent, if you make a calendar-add product that does not properly function in all the major calendars like google, outlook, apple, etc., then your product is useless.So if you need alerts/reminders to function for the group you share the events with, STAY AWAY FROM THIS PRODUCT. Furthermore after explaining this to them and requesting a refund on the remaining 10months of our 1 yr plan, we were told no, the best they could do would be offer us a credit to use their service (which doesn't work) at a later date. Um no thanks, keep the money and now other consumers can hopefully be aware of their failures before making similar mistakes.

Response from AddEvent

October 12, 2023

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are really sorry to read that your expectations were not met with our product. We understand the frustration you've faced with the calendar reminders and alerts all too well. Over the years, calendar services like Google Calendar have evolved, giving users more control over their reminder settings. While we do set event reminders, these settings are sometimes overridden by users' local preferences and unfortunately services like AddEvent cannot override user settings. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. We value your feedback, and it helps us improve our products and services. We remain committed to providing AddEvent users with a quality experience. Our team has reached out to you via email to make this right and is awaiting your response.

### "It just works"

January 16, 2026

5.0

I work for a trade association and we have a large tech stack across multiple functionalities. We've had some not so good experiences with other vendors offering different products, so when I find a company whose product actually makes my life easier and my job more efficient, it's such a breath of fresh air. I was able to get AddEvent up and running quickly (purchased the subscription and added four events on day one) and it's already enhanced our customer experience.

Pros

I was able to build several events out on day one. The interface is so easy to use and I was able to figure out almost everything on my own within minutes. We had our committee chair test the use of AddEvent through our event registration process and she was able to add the events to her calendar easily and said she absolutely loved how easy it was.

Cons

The image size requirements are slightly difficult and require some padding/formatting on the user end, but customer service was quick to respond and we were still able to get multiple events up and running on day one.

### "AddEvent helps us turn RSVPs into customers that actually attend"

September 22, 2025

5.0

I love AddEvent! As a live streaming company, using their calendar tool help our customers add relevant training content to their calendar, and doesn't force us to be dependent on an algorithm to reach our customers and leads. We've seen average live viewership for our workshops jump considerably by a huge percentage since implementing AddEvent!

Pros

Our customers love being able to add events to their calendar and it improves our attendance for our live events since customers actually book time on their calendar to attend.

Cons

There's not much I don't like about AddEvent. There's tons of features I don't use, so I wonder if it there's a lower plan that would work better for my usage.

### "AddEvent is the best tool"

January 13, 2026

5.0

AddEvent has been a game changer for how we create and manage events. It’s incredibly intuitive to build events, follow up with attendees, and customize branded assets for our website. We use it for a high-impact initiative that connects our e-commerce experience with live demos and video sales calls, and we’ve seen clear growth in both audience engagement and revenue. Five stars, highly recommended.

Pros

It’s easy to design exactly what we need, sync seamlessly with calendars, and embed anywhere on our site. The platform has been very well received internally.

Cons

We had 0 problems with the UI and features. AddEvent's options are simple enough to use and implement, and we appreciated the simplicity.

### "Best tool for RSVP"

July 31, 2025

5.0

Pros

It's a very useful tool for inviting participants to a webinar or live event and sending reminders before the event begins. This way, I can be sure to reach everyone who has expressed interest.

Cons

Customizing the widget's appearance to best integrate it with the communication layout, such as a newsletter, isn't easy without technical knowledge. Furthermore, it's not easy for all users to understand how to save to their calendar, especially in Outlook.

### "Easy to use product, Outlook button needs work"

October 23, 2025

4.0

It was good, easy to use, improved our registration process and made it seamless. Made us look more professional

Pros

I liked the ability to create one-click registration buttons for our webinar series. We were actively trying to improve the UX registration process.

Cons

The Outlook.com “Add to Calendar” button does not work for external users. Clicking it redirects to the Outlook login page, even when users are already logged in. This appears to be caused by the event being tied to our AddEvent calendar, which Outlook.com does not recognize as a personal calendar for the user. Because of this, external attendees cannot add the event directly to their Outlook.com calendar. A reliable workaround is to use the .ics file download, but we expect the Outlook.com button to work for external users without this extra step. It would be helpful if AddEvent could either: Allow the Outlook.com button to generate a link that adds events to users’ personal calendars, or Clearly indicate when a calendar is restricted to the organization/owner.

### "A solid tool for sharing calendars."

November 18, 2025

5.0

We continue to use Addevent and subscribed for the coming years. It's the best tool that we could find for our needs.

Pros

AddEvent made it easy to share calendar links with our community. Our community has many devices so this was very helpful.

Cons

Nothing specific comes to mind. The portal and interface all work well. I have no complaints whatsoever.

### "AddEvent is ideal for Coalition organizing!"

October 8, 2025

5.0

Excellent experience overall—outstanding customer service paired with a reliable and easy-to-use product.

Pros

AddEvent is the perfect solution to our coalition scheduling issues. It is easy to use and share events.

Cons

Still looking for any solution that offers an easy way for prospective attendees to receive updates or changes automatically.

### "Great Tech Support! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"

September 24, 2024

5.0

I was so impressed by how quickly I received support and how quickly the issue was resolved. The rep was very polite and knowledgeable.

Pros

I love the ease of signing for events. Makes things so much smoother for my clients.

Cons

We had a tech glitch but worked it out! I received a very quick reply to my support ticket. And the issue got resolved very quickly and efficiently.

### "Best Add to Calendar app"

April 14, 2022

5.0

Pros

AddEvent gives me a quick and easy way to share an event link with a group. One click and they can add to the calendar of their choice. When I update events in my AddEvent calendar, the calendars of all subscribers are updated, too. It makes it easier for people to show up in the right time and place, without having to convert for timezones. The calendar display makes it easy to see all events in one place.

Cons

The events added to my Google calendar with AddEvent were showing as "free" time, and my other calendars were double-booking me. Changing events to "busy" wasn't intuitive; I had to contact support in order to figure out how to do this. Editing events can also be a little cumbersome, involving extra clicks. It sounds trivial, but can be time consuming when updating multiple events.

Hey Stephanie, Thank you so much for the feedback, we always want to continue improving our product! We are glad you contacted our support and they were able to help you out! Please don't hesitate to reach out for any future support needs. In the meantime, we will be sure to create a knowledge document and video around the "free" vs "busy" as to help future users from needing to reach out. As far as editing the events, I will pass that along to our product team! Cheers, Team AddEvent

### "A Reliable Hub for Every Session: My Journey with AddEvent"

June 17, 2025

5.0

I initially encountered Add Event as a subscriber during an online course. Since then, I have discovered its versatility and utilize it for various purposes. It serves as a platform for our course sessions, as well as for our subscription Labs Membership sessions and the office hours I provide to our clients.

Pros

How easy it was to set up, make changes and they are reflected instantly in same URL I've already had our clients subscribe to.

Cons

So far, I haven’t run into anything I dislike about AddEvent—it’s done everything I’ve needed without frustration.

### "Great first experience with add event!"

November 13, 2025

5.0

Out of 10 I would absolutely give this a 7.5 for my first time use and would absolutely use this again

Pros

As someone who was looking last minute for a good RSVP program, I came across add event and it was efficient/easy to understand of using.

Cons

The one con I had is maybe not looking through all the information for the free trial, when we used the trial, we came across problems that the free trial is ending and we did get an email that there is a 7 grace day period, however we still had clients rsvp but we did not get notifications

### "Easy and effective tool! A must use!"

October 28, 2025

5.0

I was thrilled to find a way for potential guests to add an event directly to their own calendars. Using AddEvent will definitely become a must for all the events I plan from now on. It's just one more touch point for potential guests, and a great way to streamline events, ensuring the best possible outcome for attendance.

Pros

Using the AddEvent feature in an email is an easy and useful option for events. I love that guests can select which calendar app is best for them, and from the back end you can see how many "adds" have been selected. Setting up the AddEvent button was quick to do, and simple to add to an email. This will be a feature I use consistently!

Cons

While I did find the process to be quick and easy, there may be parts of the set up and execution that are not common sense to some.

Just quick easy and a good time. Do not hesitate it does what you want it to do. Add the event to the calendar.

Pros

It is so easy to use. I just love how quickly I could set everything up and have the people attending the event saving the link in their calendar.

Cons

I dont like that I cant costumize it more. I would like to make it more like our website so that it feels excactly the same

### "Great added benefit to my event!"

July 2, 2025

5.0

Easy to use. I had some issues with figuring it out at first but it worked out. I liked that you could select different display options and go back to your account to see how many people clicked on it.

Pros

Great to allow others to add my event to their calendars. I saw quite a few people use the feature. This was exciting to see how many people were interested in keeping track of the event.

Cons

I wish I could see who added my event to their calendar. I would love to be able to cross reference to see how many people actually signed up and possibly have the ability to make announcements or send reminders about the event.

Great, super easy to use and not overly complicated and UI is very easy to follow. They also have great tool tips so if you don't know what something is for, they give a really great brief description.

Pros

Works great, UI is simple to navigate. Enough customization to do what you want it to do. Embed codes are available.

Cons

There really isn't anything I like least. If I have to be super picky, i'd love more design elements options.

July 2, 2025

5.0

Pros

It's so simple to setup. I love that it just takes a few intuitive clicks to get the link/landing page you need so people can actually add the zoom call to their calendars. Because of AddEvent, the show up rates for my workshops/webinars/classes have seen a significant increase.

Cons

I haven't encountered anything that's been frustrating or confusing yet. It was easy to exit the auto-pop-up onboarding prompts, which I appreciate, because I knew my way around already.

### "A Simple, Effective Tool for Calendar Sharing and Event Promotion"

June 10, 2025

5.0

AddEvent has been a valuable tool in my workflow. Whether it’s promoting webinars, coordinating internal meetings, or sharing events with clients, it works reliably and is intuitive for users on both ends. Support was also responsive the couple of times I reached out.

Pros

The platform is incredibly easy to use and integrates smoothly with multiple calendar services like Google, Outlook, and Apple. I especially liked how simple it was to create a calendar event that users could add with just one click. It saved me a lot of time and made sharing events with clients and leads much more efficient.

### "AddEvent provides an enhanced customer experience while providing flexibility for event communications"

July 2, 2025

5.0

Pros

AddEvent gave me the flexibility to add calendar invites within Hubspot emails, and this was a win because Hubspot emails are completely customizable for both content and timing. Previously, I was limited to using my webinar platform's templated event registration emails, and this prevented me from controlling branding and email cadence.

Cons

I have no negative feedback for AddEvent at this time. It performed exactly as expected, even giving some nice visual options when embedding the calendar invites into an HTML email in Hubspot.

Pros

Made it really simple to create calendar invites for our readers no matter what calendar they use. Decent middleman for our funnels.

Cons

The user interface is actually not that intuitive. It's hard to find what I need within the app and it's kind of consuing.

June 10, 2025

5.0

AddEvent is a great way to learn about invitee intent and is flexible and so easy to use. Highly recommend!

Pros

I love being able to add an RSVP so I know who is planning to come to the event. This is especially helpful for Zoom meetings where attendance or registration is not required.

Cons

There are so many options on the back end regarding sharing, that it can get a little confusing when viewing at a glance - however, I can also see situations where those options would be helpful.
