FAQ
Whova FAQ.
- Should I keep Whova if I run conferences?
- Yes if you're organizing single events or a small series and the attendee experience (mobile app, networking, agenda, live polls, Q&A) is your top need. Whova has powered 50,000+ events and 15M users. Switch to Everybooking if you're a venue or retreat center selling space to those event organizers, where the bottleneck is the quote-and-book process, not the attendee app.
- Pricing comparison?
- Whova uses per-event pricing that's sales-gated, costs flex with event size, complexity, and add-ons. Users often note add-ons can raise costs quickly. Everybooking publishes flat, month-to-month pricing. No per-event commit, no add-on surprise.
- What's different at the product level?
- Whova is built for the event attendee, mobile app, networking, agenda, live polling, Q&A, registration, badge generation. Everybooking is built for the venue selling space, instant multi-line quote, AI phone capture, attendee cascade for room blocks, contracts. The two products run in parallel: Whova handles inside-the-event, Everybooking handles getting-the-event-booked.
- Can I run both?
- Yes. The venue uses Everybooking to convert the inquiry to a signed contract. The event organizer (often a different team or company) uses Whova to run the attendee experience once the dates are locked. Don't double-pay for either, the buyer profiles are different.
