What event planners discover when evaluating CrowdComms

CrowdComms has built a genuine following, particularly for its app experience, onsite badge kiosks, and quality of local support. But for professional event planners managing programs that go beyond the basics, a few things tend to come up.

We've done the research so you don't have to. The insights below are gathered from real conversations with event professionals and independent user reviews, so you can make the most informed decision for your events.

🌱 A platform still growing into its full potential

CrowdComms has real strengths in its app and onsite experience, but the depth and breadth of its broader platform lags behind more established solutions. For planners looking for advanced attendee engagement tools, AI-powered features, smart networking and matchmaking, and the kind of platform depth that supports ambitious event programs, the scope has limits.

Role

🚧 Registration that struggles with complexity

CrowdComms' registration platform is still relatively new, so for simpler event programs it covers the essentials, but planners running more complex events often find the workflows don't keep up. Group bookings, paid sessions within free events, and multi-step registration journeys can create friction that takes time and manual effort to work around.

Role

✌️ Two apps where one should do

CrowdComms requires organizers to set up and manage two separate apps for a single event — one for attendees and one for exhibitors to access lead capture. That means two configurations, two sets of content to maintain, and two experiences to manage across the same event. For planners already juggling competing priorities, that added overhead is time that could be better spent elsewhere.

Role

⚠️ Pricing that’s difficult to forecast

CrowdComms operates on a per-event pricing model that can make budgeting across a full event program unpredictable. Renewal rates have been known to increase significantly, and with limited flexibility in how pricing is structured, planners can find it difficult to plan ahead with confidence.

Role

This is why serious event planners choose EventsAir over CrowdComms

Now here's what a different approach looks like. One where you can plan with confidence, engage attendees in real time, deliver seamlessly across formats, and scale success with powerful insights and repeatable systems.

A platform built for what’s next

EventsAir is continuously investing in innovation to meet the needs of the modern event planner. Air Intelligence brings AI-powered tools to your workflow, smart networking and meeting matching helps attendees connect meaningfully, and advanced gamification and engagement tools keep every audience active and involved.

Role

Built for every format, every time

EventsAir's registration platform is mature, full-featured, and built for the full range of event programs. Multiple registration pathways, logic-based branching, group booking, approval workflows, abandoned basket recovery, and integrated payment processing are all included as standard. Whatever your event requires, the platform is ready for it.

Role

One powerful event app

With EventsAir, every attendee type — general attendees, exhibitors, sponsors, VIPs — accesses the same app, configured to show exactly what they need. Exhibitors get everything attendees get, plus additional features like lead scanning, all within one branded experience.

Role

Transparent pricing, built for your program

EventsAir operates on flat annual licensing with unlimited registrations included, so your costs stay predictable and easy to plan around. No per-event pricing, no surprise invoices as your program grows — just clear, transparent pricing that lets you focus on your events.
