RSVPify

Avantages

Easy to navigate, outstanding customer service with fast response, cost effective, worked well for both small and large scale event registration/check-in processes.

Inconvénients

A customer service phone number would be useful. Otherwise - no complaints.

Avantages

easy to undersand and navigate. organized. good quality

Inconvénients

limited fields due to suscription. that is about it

Avantages

RSVPify is the perfect application for us in terms of the right features and the right price. The interface to create an event with the features we need for each event is super easy, and creates a great experience for our event attendees to RSVP to our events.

Inconvénients

There are a lot of features to choose from which can be overwhelming and difficult to navigate. Some of the details I wanted to be able to control, I wasn't always able to figure out.

Avantages

I liked RSVPify's simplicity most. Rarely was there something I couldn't achieve or figure out. I found the tool invaluable for our event planning.

Inconvénients

I really don't have any complaints. It was intuitive and built for purpose. I achieve all of my objectives using RSVPify.

Avantages

I love the ability to set up our RSVP exactly how I need including the design of the RSVP, the questions we can require each respondent to answer, and predetermined responses for the respondent to select from. I also really like being able to upload the quest list to keep track of who has responded and who hasn't which allows me to make sure everyone is included.

Inconvénients

I use this for 2 events a year so I have to sign up when I need it then cancel for the rest of the year. It would be great if there were more options on plans rather than only monthly payment options.

Avantages

We loved how easy this made it to track our RSVPs, how beautiful the web page was and how user-friendly this was to use! Also, I had to reach out to customer service with a couple of questions and they got back to me within seconds! You can't beat that!

Inconvénients

There was nothing we did not like about this software!

Avantages

This was great software to use because we were hosting an event which was made up of 3 different activities which attendees could pick and choose from. This allowed us to get a number of attendees for each different event, through one platform. It was easy and quick for us to create the even and even easier for attendees. I couldn't recommend this software highly enough.

Inconvénients

There was nothing that it was really lacking. The only small action I would have liked, was for an attendee to only be able to choose one of two options, instead of the system allowing them to choose both. But this was a very minor thing for us.

Avantages

Software is very user friendly and seems to be more customizable the higher the plan tier you go with.

Inconvénients

This is geared more toward large-scale events. We hold small to mid-size events at least a few times a year. Another level of package to accommodate those of us in this realm would be awesome! If the RSVP limit could be bumped up to about 250...or better yet, maybe a once per year limit of 500, once at 250 and the rest at 100 or less. With potentially more features available for the 250 limit and the most available for the 500 limit. Yes, I think that would be ideal and potentially open up a whole new market for you.

Avantages

First and foremost, the customer service was top notch. I worked with [SENSITIVE CONTENT] mostly, and they were always very helpful and professional. Secondly, the ease of adding our information, editing, customizing and the dashboard. It was a great experience fir our committee.

Inconvénients

We did not like that reports did not work well from cell phones. Also, we wished that we were able to easily filter and create reports from the program and not have to do exports each time.

Avantages

We really liked that this product felt like an invitation instead of an event sign-up form. The event information was on a separate page from the RSVP and allowed for integration with photos, maps etc.

Inconvénients

The software is limited in its overall capabilities. For example, there is only one email template so you can't send different emails to different types of RSVPs. You are also limited in the number of events in the system period. You have to delete past events before logging an additional event over the number of events your subscription allows.

Avantages

The software was the perfect go-to for internal events that only take place once a year. Many features from customizing the image to menu selections, made it a polished presentation to our staff for our Service Awards Dinner. Loved the link and QR code to make responses to the event effortless.

Inconvénients

The challenge is having more than one event at a time, you need to delete an event and can not save the information on the site. The site does not work on some web browsers (Internet Explore).

Avantages

I had a difficult project to set up, this software made it possible to send a link to more than 300 emails, have them choose a 15 min time slot and send a confirmation email as well as a follow up. It also allows me to see who is coming in those slots for a chek in process.

I hit the customer service JACKPOT with [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] who worked with me for two days to make sure all my pieces of this intricate project were in place, she even check after I was complete and made recomendations for tweaks.

Thank yuu times 1000, [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN]!

Inconvénients

I am sure in future updates, my project will allow for their production team to add some more features - but this is not a CON, just growth potential!

Avantages

RSVPify was really simple to use and set up. The complete customization of the website is great and the functionality of the check in software runs really smooth. Overall the product was wonderful for what we needed it for.

Inconvénients

The customization functions are pretty limited, it would be awesome if we had more freedom with that.

Avantages

I loved how easy it was to personalize the site, specific our event, The widgets were easy to use and the customization options were great.

Inconvénients

I would have liked to be able to send emails to attendees that did not include the RSVP widget. ie; the option to send a follow up email after the event, thanking the guests for coming would be a nice touch. (I got around this by exporting the attendee list and using office365)

Avantages

This program organizes all event details including tracking number of attendees, names and contact info, down to meal choices. There is even an option to allow your guests to write a note to the event coordinator. Additional options are available we haven't required yet, but are available if the need arises. I love the flexibility of the set up allowing any artwork we choose along with the ability to choose our color scheme to match our company branding standards. Once the setup is complete, all you need to do is wait until the RSVP date has arrived and you can easily export the information to an Excel spreadsheet.

Inconvénients

No cons at all with the software, it's almost perfect. The only con I have is being forced to purchase a subscription. I utilize RSVPify once or twice a year to organize company events, and in the past I was able to purchase by the month, now I'm forced to purchase a subscription. However, RSVPify has made it simple to cancel the subscription unlike other companies that make you solve complex puzzles to find the cancellation information. All you need to do is set a reminder and cancel once your event is completed.

Avantages

Ease of use, check in and email send outs

Inconvénients

It can be somewhat complicated with the preview. It actually sent me a dummy/false count on my invitees. Also, the yes or no options and the gift giving should have more options that don't make it confusing to set up.

Avantages

This software was extremely easy to use! I like the instructional videos and that when I needed hands on help, Rep set up a conference call and was quickly able to show me how to improve my RSVP. I also liked that is was affordable so it was not difficult for me to get approval from my leadership team.

Inconvénients

The one thing I did not like about the software is it did not come with a number that I could just call to get help.

Avantages

My most favorite aspect of RSVPify was how incredibly simple it integrated into our existing email invitations and how user friendly the online interface is. Yes, there were some points here or there that I thought "Maybe this could be moved" or "This could come first before that," but overall those items were so insignificant.

Inconvénients

The largest con I experienced in the software, was the limitations of each plan. Each RSVPify membership allows for a particular allotment of responses per event that can be tracked. We used the Silver membership and we had a guest list of 200 which was the maximum tracking you could have for Silver which seems a little low. That was basically the largest con in our experience.

Avantages

RVSPify provides an amazing platform for managing RSVPs for any type of event! I especially liked the ability to have our guests choose their meal selection in the RSVP. The reporting is Amazing and made it super easy to get the information I needed to our venue event planner. On top of all of this they offer a seating chart tool which made making out seating chart super efficient.

Inconvénients

There were a few things that I couldn't figure out on my own but the customer service was awesome, super quick to respond and very helpful!

Avantages

Nothing. I did not like anything about this software.

Inconvénients

Too complex, not enough/very few templates, way too time-consuming for generic event planning. Customizable to a fault (not enough templates to use for quick completion of a project). No free trial offered. Poor marketing of plans--especially after researching and seeing reviews--definitely not worth the money. Go with a website that actually has a free trial, a website that is simpler to navigate, and a customer service department that is direct and actually willing to hear you out and assist. Biggest waste of time and money. Would not suggest to anyone. I use services like this often and I am fairly computer savvy (or can work with something until I figure it out), but I would never use this website again. Not helpful and you can find way cheaper options that are faster to navigate.

Avantages

Customizable and made creating a landing page very easy. Also liked the email management and communications to registered attendees

Inconvénients

Allowing open fields and main page image without a significant price increase seemed over the top, needed 1 field and went from ad based to $100+ a month

Avantages

RSVPify is a good value for your money and has great functionality. The customer support team is really wonderful and respond very, very quickly and try to resolve all issues.

Inconvénients

Some of the customization of forms is a bit strange and you have to jump through some weird hoops to make your form appear as you want it to.

Avantages

Ability to track responses
Ability to customize page
Fairly user friendly

Inconvénients

Does not work well for events that have multiple sponsor levels that come with guest benefits.
Does not provide necessary options for payments that can't be made online
Does not send confirmation emails to all guest - only to the main person who registered , although does ask for every guest email address.
Does not provide a downloadable report (# of guests, money paid, etc.)

Avantages

Inconvénients

Avantages

Easy to use and customize, easy to keep track of attendee responses

Inconvénients

Some were unable to open the link due to company network blockages

Avantages

I love that everything you need is integrated into one product. Whether its setting up the website, creating print and promotional products, sending out event reminders, or keeping track of a guest list, everything you need is all in one place.

Inconvénients

It could use some higher customization options when creating websites and the registration process. Maybe allow movement of buttons, or choose a style of buttons and better fonts for an optimized experience.

Avantages

RSVPify was easy to use once I was able to figure out how to customize it -- there is a bit of a learning curve.

Inconvénients

-Stripe is the only payment app connected and only is applicable if you have a business.
-RSVPify occasionally did not work on some people's browsers.
-Need for more administrator functionality so that I could enroll individuals who wanted to RSVP via email rather than through the app when it didn't work.

Avantages

Being able to design the website when people open the invitation. Customizing it makes it more personal and fun. Also love being able to add an image at the end - we usually do funny gifs and it’s a nice surprise

Inconvénients

The set up is a little confusing with all the tabs. Wish it was a little more clear. I find myself clicking 2-3 different things before finding what I actually wanted to begin with

Avantages

Made our registration look professional. I liked being able to send professional looking emails to all the participants.

Inconvénients

It was a little confusing to navigate the registration processes, finding the three menu in the top corner.

Avantages

I loved how easy it was to import and export information. The dashboard is a nice touch for a quick view of guest count and menu selections. Overall very helpful in managing the event!

Inconvénients

I don't have anything negative to say about the software. Price was maybe a little more than I wanted to pay per month, that's the only thing I liked least about using RSVPify. It would be nice to see an option to use the service for a smaller amount of time at a set discounted price.

Avantages

I was very satisfied with Rsvpify. It was super simple to create the invitations and details of the event. The program tracks the number of attendees and declines. You can easily make changes to the event and send updates/communications to participants. It is also simple to generate tickets and process payments.

Inconvénients

I loved everything about Rsvpify except the payment processing fee. However, that is expected with any program, and the fee is still inexpensive.

Sometimes the guest lists, when exported, did not export correctly and names were left out. Also when I selected only people who had accepted the invite, still there were several who declined that needed to be removed form the list.

Pourquoi passer à RSVPify

When I had questions prior to signing up, they were answered immediately. I felt safe with the site and felt this was a company I could trust after reading many reviews and comparing products/pricing.

Avantages

It's fast, user friendly, the app is great and my event attendees like it.

Inconvénients

The limits on number of events you can have at once, I often have to delete old events even though I want to keep them as templates for future events. I like the old system of customizing emails better, the new one isn't as user friendly.

Avantages

The branding tools - to allow you to customise your RSVPify site to your event branding.
Also, the ability to upgrade membership levels and then to reduce back to free level as and when is required (it makes it easy to on-charge clients for cost and means that we're not paying for an annual membership that we only use for a few months here and there).

Inconvénients

There are a couple of things that would be great to be able to do for corporate events (I think the functions were intially set-up for weddings?) I.e.
* Add company name on first page with guest name
* Add subsequent questions in Custom Questions tool e.g. questions that only appear if first question is answered 'yes'
* Clearer guidelines for design tools i.e. to brief our designer on correct file sizes and formats for upload

Avantages

- invitees can respond to the invitation online
- the ability track who has or has not received and/or opened the invitation
- managing breakout events within and overall event
- invitees can login and edit their responses
- ability to send message to invitees who have not responded
- adding multiple users so that I am not to only go-to person when event coordinators need updates
- features where we can customize the look/design of our invitation to coordinate with the event

Inconvénients

Eventbrite, Blackbird, EmailMe Forms, Evite

Avantages

The capabilities to customize your event to your liking. Very user friendly, a no brainer. Exceptional capabilities to add your own company's personality without a "cookie cutter" copy and paste approach.

Inconvénients

The largest con to the use of RSVPify is certain limitations on color scheme/theme and templates.

Avantages

It has all the functions I need for my event. Very easy to use. I was able to figure out most of the stuff without looking for instructions. When I ran into an issue, the customer service team was able to find out the problem and explain the issue to me in a timely manner.

Easier to work with and track RSVP's

Avantages

Firstly, It was extremely easy to understand, set-up and integrate. The form customisation tools provide you great flexibility. It is easy to share the links. It has all the options that helps you design the form as per your needs. Most importantly, the final product doesn't take away your brand visibility away from you which is an essential requirement in any outreach exercise.

Inconvénients

It would be great if there could be an opportunity to integrate the same on a whatsapp/linkedin marketing activity

Avantages

I have used RSVPify for personal and business use. I loved the flexibility to be able to build different flows, as well as the ability to change or add an attendee manually. The price is great and support is almost always available. When they did not have a feature, they helped me with a work around.

Inconvénients

I would have liked to have been able to do multi-event RSVP without having to use a workaround. So that I could get how many people they are bringing, any special requests etc. Need more flexibility with accommodations.

Avantages

Whenever I need to use an RSVP platform for an upcoming company event, it's easy to login to RSVPify and see past event history and create new events. The tools are simple to use to design the RSVP landing page and embed it into our website or send via a text / email. Our employees have an easy time using it as well.

Inconvénients

Seems a little expensive to use the pro version. Usually I have to start taking RSVP's a month or two out from the event. And typically we have between 100-200 guests that RSVP. So the way the cost is setup, I'm often paying for multiple months for minimum use. I'd like to see a different payment/plans structure or just have the monthly cost cheaper.

Avantages

Love the ease of making my form. I did need to pay to use all of the features that I needed such as customisable forms. It was worth the price for my 120 person event.

Inconvénients

Would like an option for a once off use rather than month to month payment. It was initially hard for me to find some of the features, for instance, where to see which staff have confirmed their availability for the function.

Avantages

It was easy to set up, has a customizable URL link that you can sent to guests, pre-exiting templates or can upload your own.

Inconvénients

Wouldn't allow for guests to change their RSVP once RSVPs closed for someone to decline
The splash page was pretty basic and would like to see it built out more like a website where we can include dress code and links to different things.

Simpler to use

Avantages

I love how simple it is to track RSVPs. Easier than keeping my own spreadsheet.

Inconvénients

I had no issues. We add the custom RSVPify link as a hyperlink on invitation image, making RSVP management a breeze. We don't use any of the other features.

Avantages

I love that I can combine invitations and payments into a single platform at low cost and never have to collect checks or cash. This has really changed the way we do business and allows us greater time to work on our customers needs. We certainly don't have to spend time chasing down payments and that is a lifesaver!! Thanks Jade and Team for the fantastic customer service and support!

Inconvénients

This software takes a bit of learning. Sometimes, it is not as intuitive as I'd like it to be, but usually I can figure out how to accomplish what I need to do.

Avantages

I loved that it was easy to set up an event and seamless to use. I liked the seating plan feature. I will definitely use it again.

Inconvénients

Ability to remove RSVPify branding for paid events.

Avantages

The Design Templates are very beautiful and professional. It is also very easy to set up the event and adding all of the entree options etc.

Inconvénients

The design Options. As a graphic designer, it was a little outdated the options and software you have to design invitations. That Is why I choose the template. Also I dont like the fact that I have to go to Guest List first to add a person or a party then go to Invite then click invite via email then add a new invitation then send it. This process can be much easier like addidng a button that says send email invitation right when you are adding the person to the guest list.

Avantages

This software was so easy to use. Everything was intuitive, the process for registering guests was simple and visually it was superior than other platforms as well. Customer service was superb.

Inconvénients

This software didn't have as much of the customization in registration as I wanted but there were doable workarounds that still helped us accomplish our goals. The custom questions weren't easy to search by and notes from guests didn't immediately appear in their reservation. The emails were filtered/images were blocked by some of our recipient servers which was a pain also

Avantages

It was great that you could create a custom landing page for your event. We needed something unattached to our main website so that we could curate the people that saw it. The custom questions and secondary events were very helpful. The customer service team was very responsive and helpful in determining whether or not the software would fit my needs before I purchased it.

Inconvénients

I wanted it to be more like excel or google sheets while viewing my guest list data, with similar filtering capabilities. Same with the email tool - I had a couple of groups of people that needed special emails. Even if they were part of a secondary event, that would not exclude them from the general guest list, so I had to send emails from my own account via MailMerge so that my guests wouldn't get confused.

Our RSVP situation was that the first 100 guests to RSVP would be allowed to attend and then everyone after that was on a waitlist. When I closed the RSVP, then people couldn't edit their responses if they could no longer attend.

Avantages

The helpfulness and promptness of the customer service at RSVPify is impressive. The service does everything you need it to do if you're planning an event.

Inconvénients

In order to turn off or modify some of the default event settings, you have to search for the feature. Some of the features are not located in intuitive places, so I spent a little time navigating the dashboard trying to figure it all out.
