Eventzilla

You can run a free event without paying anything, and on paid events you are charged only when someone registers, so a small programme carries no monthly bill. It suits organisers of conferences, training courses, trade shows, fundraisers and festivals who want to set up alone and add check-in, badges or an attendee app later. Eventzilla covers the event website, registration, payments, agenda and onsite entry from one account.

What it is for

You avoid separate tools for the site, the ticket sales and the door. Eventzilla documents in-person, hybrid and virtual formats, and its agency plan page pitches the flat-fee plan at programmes from 100-person workshops to 2,000-person conferences. Agencies get a separate dashboard per client and can assign a Stripe account per client or event, so ticket money reaches each client directly.

Features

• Registration and ticketing. Unlimited free ticket types on every plan, one paid type on Basic and unlimited from Pro, plus waitlists, pre-approval, group and code discounts, merchandise, invoices, part payments and reserved seating.
• Website and marketing. A drag and drop site builder, embeddable ticket widgets, email invitations with segmentation, automated reminders and follow-up of abandoned registrations.
• Programme. Multi-track agendas with session check-in and capacity limits, an agenda importer, calls for speakers with a review panel for abstracts, and accommodation room blocks.
• Onsite. QR check-in and ticket sales in the organiser app, a drag and drop badge designer, and self-service kiosks for check-in and badge printing.
• Exhibitors. A lead capture app where exhibitors scan badges or type details, rate leads, then export to CSV or sync to HubSpot or Salesforce.
• Engagement. Event Hub adds a web and mobile attendee space with live streams, chat, polls, Q&A, meeting requests and leaderboards.
• Reporting. A live sales dashboard, post-event surveys, scheduled custom reports, and data export at any time on all plans.

Free plan and trial

Free events stay free. Extras such as agendas and conditional logic need the premium subscription for free events, from $49 a month with 100 registrations and $3 for each one over, with a 14-day trial that asks for card details. Webinars also have a 14-day trial with no card needed and a free tier of 25 participants, and $11.99 a month buys 50.

Integrations and API

Attendee data can reach your existing tools without manual exports. Native connections listed are HubSpot, Mailchimp, ActiveCampaign and Constant Contact. Through Zapier it names Salesforce, Mailchimp and Google Sheets, and Google Analytics is also supported. Payment gateways include PayPal, Stripe, Square, Authorize.Net, Braintree and eWay. Developers get a REST API (v2) using JSON and an x-api-key header, plus webhooks.

Deployment and platforms

Staff can run the door from a phone or tablet, and the rest runs in a browser. Organiser and attendee apps are on iOS (organiser, attendee) and Android (organiser, attendee). Kiosks run on an Android or iOS tablet, with Brother QL-820NWB and Zebra GK420d as the supported label printers. Its security page says production runs in multiple US regions of Amazon Web Services, with TLS 1.2 or higher and AES-256 at rest. The ISO 27001, SOC and PCI DSS accreditations it mentions belong to those AWS data centres.

Company

You get a supplier with a long record and no outside investors to answer to: its about page says Eventzilla was founded in 2009, has grown without outside investors, and claims over 50,000 organisers and 200,000 event websites. Eventzilla Corporation runs the service. The only address it publishes is a mailing address at 8 The Green, Dover, Delaware, United States.

What to check before buying

• Confirm your plan in writing if you rely on seating, speakers or extra users. The plan cards list the seating designer under Pro and speaker management under Plus, while the comparison table starts seating at Plus and speakers at Pro. The cards put built-in virtual events on Plus, while the table marks native streaming as an add-on there. The table gives Plus 10 users, and a help article says unlimited.
• Get the agency price quoted. The pricing page says custom, the agency page says $5,999 a year, and its comparison table says from $4,999.
• Turn on kiosk mode before sales open. The $0.49 is collected from attendees at registration, and enabling it later means you pay for earlier registrations by invoice first.
• Test kiosks on your venue network. The agency page promises offline-ready check-in, but the kiosk help article calls a stable connection essential. Its onsite page also names Epson printers, which the kiosk list does not.
• Plan your cash flow by gateway. PayPal, Stripe and Square deduct fees at registration, while Authorize.Net, eWay, Braintree and offline payments are invoiced monthly, so a card on file is required.
• Decide on reserved seating early, as it works only on paid events and may not be removable once enabled.
• If you are in the UK or EU, weigh the US-only hosting and a privacy policy under Ohio law. Zapier reach also varies by page, 500+ apps on the integrations page and 5000+ on pricing.
