Cvent alternative
Cvent is the biggest name in event software, and it says so with numbers: more than 34,000 customers, 8 million events, and most of the Fortune 100. Alongside registration, apps and check-in, it runs a marketplace of venues, hotel room-block tools, budgeting approvals and a lot more besides.
Short answer
If your organisation uses all of that, it's hard to argue with. Plenty of teams don't. They run a steady programme of corporate, client or agency events, and want registration, an app and a smooth front door, not a suite with a module for every department. That's who Mitingu is for. Mitingu has worked with event teams at Booking.com, Workday, CBRE and Campari.
Where Mitingu is different
Registration with hotel and accommodation booking, event emails, a white-label attendee app with networking and meeting booking, self-service booths that print badges on the spot, staffed check-in desks, exhibitor lead capture and reporting, all from the same attendee record.
The AI Event Builder takes a plain-English description of the audience, format and dates and builds a first draft of the branded event site, registration and communications for your team to review and launch. You can also do it from Claude, ChatGPT or Microsoft Copilot through Mitingu MCP.
Registration is flexible enough to follow different guest types and routes. If an event needs something the platform doesn't do yet, you can ask for it and Mitingu builds it into the platform for you.
For agencies, every client can have its own branded event environment: sites, emails, the app and the booths.
Card, bank transfer or invoice, in full or in part, so a delegate can pay a deposit now and the balance later.
Where Cvent may suit you better
You source venues through the Cvent marketplace.
You need one vendor across events, webinars and virtual experiences at very large scale.
Your organisation has already standardised on Cvent and it's working.
Questions to ask
Which of the modules we're paying for will we actually use this year?
How long does it take to set up a new event site and registration from scratch? Can you show us?
How far does the branding go: the app's name and icon, emails, web addresses, the check-in screens?
Do registration, hotel booking, the app, check-in and lead capture share one attendee record?
Can delegates pay by invoice, or pay a deposit now and the rest later?
