Converve Reviews

Pros

It's a useful event management platform that helps organize activities and makes it easier for participants to connect and hold business meetings.

Cons

The platform works quite well overall but the support still needs improvement.

Pros

Does a really good job of helping organize and simplify business meetings between people attending the event.

Cons

At the moment, I don't have anything to point out as a negative.

Pros

We used the software to schedule appointments for a career fair and it worked incredibly well. Both the companies and the students were able to use it without any hassle and the whole booking process felt simple.

Cons

It would be even better if there were a clearer, more simple overview of the appointments booked for each individual company. Aside from that, everything was excellent!

Pros

Compared with other platforms, the meeting matching feature is a major advantage. It's also really helpful to have customized registration questions for each event, along with separate participant questions for individual agenda items.

Cons

From time to time, it seems that changes made in the front end can create additional effects in the back end that were not documented in the project plan. Because of that, they are not automatically adjusted and usually only become noticeable once an issue comes up. As a customer, you would want those dependencies to be identified and resolved before they turn into problems.

Pros

Getting started with it was simple and it works really well for organizing both online and face-to-face meetings. Overall, it has been a very effective tool for us.

Cons

We chose to use MS Teams for video conferencing instead of its default solution since Teams is currently the most widely accepted tool in our line of business.

Pros

Getting started was quick and uncomplicated, with helpful training, support and clear explanations. Depending on the one using it, it's also possible to assign permissions for additional functions.

Cons

A lot of sections still seem to be translated from English and some of the terminology is hard to fully understand. Copying entries from previous events is only partly possible since software updates sometimes prevent a one-to-one transfer.

Pros

Very few providers on the market integrate B2B matchmaking features into event software as effectively as it does. They are always willing to turn our ideas and sometimes very complex specific requirements into reality, adapting the software to match exactly what we need. Also, working with their team is consistently friendly and constructive.

Cons

Whenever there is something in the software that doesn't fully meet our expectations, it usually comes up with a solution quickly and adjusts it according to our wishes. And if a certain display or functionality can't be implemented right away, they still tend to find a workable solution in the medium term. Because of that, there is hardly anything we genuinely dislike and any optimization is usually already on the horizon.

Pros

Using this application has been a really positive experience. It's very user-friendly and gives clear visibility for both buyers and suppliers which makes things much more convenient. The platform is quick, effective and works well for getting things done without wasting time. Customer service is also very responsive and helpful whenever needed. The video calling feature is available too and it has been quite useful. I would definitely recommend this application.

Cons

The interface could still use a bit of improvement. At times, the agendas do not display properly and do not fit the frame the way they should. Because of that some important details can be missed so this part definitely needs to be improved.

Pros

One of the best parts of the platform is how much flexibility it gives delegates especially when it comes to choosing and blocking their own appointment slots. The interface is clean, polished and professional and it's very user-friendly as well. I also appreciate that you can create different tabs when needed which adds even more customization. The profile matching feature works very well and our delegates have been really pleased with the events we've run using it.

Cons

An issue we've noticed is that the online meeting software does not seem to work very efficiently for delegates based in China.

Pros

Everything feels very simple to use and it's clear for both buyers and suppliers. The matchmaking tool works really well and the platform has improved a lot over the past few years. It's also become very good for video meetings now which adds a lot of value.

Cons

One thing that would make it even better is having a monthly subscription instead of event-based invoicing, along with the flexibility to use it multiple times during the year.

Pros

For setting up meetings between buyers and exhibitors at a fair, this software did exactly what we needed. It was especially helpful because it let us keep track of and manage everything that happened between users. The tool is practical and simple to handle.

Cons

I really don't have anything negative to point out about it.

Pros

The platform felt very simple and participants were able to get comfortable with it in very little time. The communication features were clear and effective and the biggest highlight was the outstanding quality of the B2B matches which many participants specifically commented on.

Cons

Getting the moderator up to speed did take a while and because the software is highly customizable, it's hard for them to offer a single instruction guide that fits every setup. As a result, there was quite a bit of training needed at the start.

Pros

Right from the beginning, the team's support was fantastic. The system was very simple to manage and being able to make changes and small tweaks without hassle was something I really appreciated. We also got excellent feedback from our event delegates and they were genuinely impressed.

Cons

Honestly the whole experience was positive from start to finish. I really didn't come across any negatives.

Pros

Right from the start, the platform felt simple to navigate and the interface was very user friendly. Also, the strong back-end and the useful built-in features made both the administration side and the overall user experience very positive.

Cons

Toward the end of the event, the platform became noticeably slower. That said, I'm not completely sure whether the issue came from my side or from the platform itself.

Pros

Right from the start, this online B2B platform was adapted to match our methodology and specific requirements. It's user-friendly and covers everything we currently need to run a successful B2B event, including company applications, company selection, registration, B2B matchmaking, reporting, as well as communication and marketing features. The team is flexible solution-oriented and consistently follows through on what they promise.

Cons

At this point, we haven't had the chance to test the platform in least developed countries or in locations with unstable WiFi access but I'm confident the team would help us come up with a backup plan if that situation arises.

Pros

Everything needed to manage B2B is covered in this software. It's user-friendly and the admin features are exactly what's needed. Having everything integrated into one platform is really convenient and the customer service has been excellent.

Cons

Don't have any complaints.
