What event planners discover when evaluating Stova
Stova has a long history in the event management space and offers a broad range of features. But for planners who need a platform that moves with the pace of modern events, 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 that can feel like it's standing still
Event programs grow in size, scope, and what attendees expect. Planners who have been with Stova for several years often find that the platform hasn't quite kept pace with that growth. Navigation that once felt familiar can start to feel cumbersome, and workflows that worked for simpler events require more steps than they should as programs scale.
🔒 Making changes on your own isn't always possible
Speed matters in event planning, and so does independence. Planners looking for full creative and operational control over their event websites and registration flows often find Stova's customization options more limited than expected, with some changes requiring support team involvement rather than being fully self-serve.
📱 App functionality that doesn't always meet expectations
A mobile event app is increasingly central to the attendee experience. For planners evaluating Stova's app capabilities, it's worth understanding the platform's history in this area and confirming that current functionality meets your specific event needs before committing.
🧩 Gaps that require external tools to fill
Abstract submission workflows, exhibition floors, sponsor management, seated dinner components — the further your event program reaches, the more a platform needs to keep up. Planners running this type of program in Stova often find themselves supplementing with external tools to cover capability gaps.
Simple pricing with unlimited registrations
Rest assured, with EventsAir your success won’t impact your budget.
