Cvent Events

Logging in to an event is a painful process. The only way to log in is getting a code sent to your email (username/password is not even presented as an option) and the email takes ages to arrive, if it even does at all. The first time it took about 8 minutes to receive the email. This time around I've been waiting for at least 10 and it still hasn't come. Also how is it that it used 2.3% battery in 5 minutes of screen time? Streaming video doesn't even do that

Would rate for 0 star. Need to login with verification code and no alternative way. The verification only comes out after 20 mins and expired straight away. Contacted admin and been told my account may have been suspended - no indication of that. Tried multiple platform, same issue, Waste time.

I despise when apps ask me to review after using it less than 5 minutes. I don't know how to app is, I've only clicked onto my event code, built a profile, and pressed a few buttons! If it was great I would go out of my way to give 5 stars. If you immediately beg for a review, I auto give 1 star. My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined.

Profile picture layout is not consistent. Profile and attendees my profile pic is vertical and correct. In the speaker module my pic is sideways. I have used multiple apps to remove metadata as well as tried using a screenshot from a PC. Some users see my poc orientation correctly and others dont. It's very bizarre.

Android version my camera could not scan QR codes, even with permissions for camera in the app turned on. Black screen for camera. and this app seemed to consume an enormous amount of battery. Other than that this was a good app to navigate my conference

Prevents screenshots. In addition to that no copying of text. With no "screenshots" you can't even use the Android built in hold home key to bring up the overlay to highlight and copy text /search.

Well organized, great way to stay updated, make contacts, etc

I like that this platform makes it really easy to communicate with others and gain important information

Have used this app as a participant for a few years and it's worked well.

This was an amazing convention with amazing speakers and presentations. The exhibitors and the services they offer were very comprehensive. I would recommend anyone who is considering switching platforms or just wanting to get information about the platform and attend one of their conventions.

edited: once event began, the app worked flawlessly. previous notes; wont retain login information. defeats the purpose of convenience by needing a code to access each time.

Definitely shows that 40 years of experience has made this the most memorable and well planned event in the world. A perfect 10 diamond score.

Works great, and helps you plan your schedule for the conference.. I also like the new rating system that was added in the latest version.

it is a really good platform, but unable to upload profile pictures

The playback function is very cumbersome to use. It keeps crashing and flipping me back to the main menu of videos every time I try to fast forward by using the video place marker on the bottom. Fast forwarding through 45 minutes using the skip ten seconds button is very cumbersome. The screen also will not rotate so you can get a full screen video.

App is good. I used it for a conference at my workplace. Couple of things can be improved: 1. Log in interface could be better. I had to log in multiple times when I was adding the event to the app. 2. The event search doesn't give any autofill recommendations. You have to type in the full name of the event and that too, you need to know it exactly. E.g., if you type 'and' in the event search, and the actual name of the event had '&' in it, the search won't find the event, a bit diasspointing.

Incredibly slow. Tapping on any item often takes 10 seconds or more before anything happens. The default schedule view isn't smart enough to show me current and future sessions, it always starts from the first event of the conference. Then I have to try to scroll (which often doesn't work) to the current day. And don't think you'll have any better luck by adding them to your personal schedule. Clicking the plus button works rarely. In summary, something is seriously broken with this app.

I honestly don't get all the bad reviews. Our production company is using it at our event without issue. Granted, we aren't using the attendee functionality, just keeping track of all the general sessions and breakouts. I like the ability to search and filter for literally anything. It could be snappier, but so could the WiFi in literally every ballroom. So I can't fault it like everyone else seems to be. It has a simple and effective interface.

some great speakers, key note speaker was awful. whole area way beyond freezing, no lunch options, super expensive parking. Government agencies can't afford expensive venues. move to outside of Disney area. Attendance was very low this year with quality of event on decline. Need new members organizing to bring in fresh ideas. Not very good this year.

Sooo slooow. Where do I start? Even though all the data is cached, it can't work offline. It's so slow and unresponsive, you end up clicking something twice, then it decides to also use the second click which you then have to get back from. It makes such appalling use of screen real estate... session titles are truncated so you have to click on each one to even read that. Then the session's abstract is truncated so you have to click "more" every time.
