Top Rated AddEvent Alternatives
It is easy to get events and calendars setup quickly. The customizable templates let you do pretty much anything and there is a simple API on top of that. Support took the time to send videos and had the best attitude about everything. There are over 1000 integrations and with the API it is simple to integrate your Calendars and Events with other systems. You can also pull events in with the API or by an ICS file which some calendars produce. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Documentation is a bit limited but support is there to help. A tour of all the features would be helpful and the templates all in one place, which they said they are working on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy to use, simple view for external members! Really helpful support team if any issues ever exist, or if we need support! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Some capablity issues with zoom repeated meetings, but there are work arounds. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It's very simple and intuitive. I was able to set everything up on my own without much trouble. The simple easy-to-use, copy-paste feature for adding the "add to calendar" option on emails, was what we were looking for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The only complaint I have about it is that the "add to calendar" option is not properly working on MailChimp marketing emails when viewed on mobile. The google, apple, etc icons go very big and fill the entire screen without being responsive and adjusting the size automatically. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
This was a very easy product to use and add to our email templates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Unfortunately this products 'reminders/alerts' for events do not work in clients calendars. This is something they advertise that their product is capable of, but it's not.
We tried multiple times to troubleshoot this ourselves, with our clients and had no success. In fact, even when clients tried to manually adjust the events in their own calendars this failed.
We then contacted Addevent and their response was it was a problem with all the major calendars not their product.
...welp Addevent, if you make a calendar-add product that does not properly function in all the major calendars like google, outlook, apple, etc., then your product is useless.
So if you need alerts/reminders to function for the group you share the events with, STAY AWAY FROM THIS PRODUCT.
Furthermore after explaining this to them and requesting a refund on the remaining 10months of our 1 yr plan, we were told no, the best they could do would be offer us a credit to use their service (which doesn't work) at a later date.
Um no thanks, keep the money and now other consumers can hopefully be aware of their failures before making similar mistakes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Love AddEvent. It's so easy to use and easy to integrate with other programs so the calendar can be shared. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It's sometimes a bit slow when loading and updating Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The event invites are clean and fit with our branding. When any issues arise, customer services are quick to help. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Nothing that I can think of currently. Maybe the only issue is that they don't email invoices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
AddEvent is a great solution for events and webinars because it provides a simple user experience to ensure calendar holds for attendees. It also provides backend analytics showing downloads, which is helpful for predicting show rates. We've also been able to build multiple calendar views for our programs for both internal and external audiences, improving the communication surrounding our programs. Our creative team has been able to unify the look and feel of the addevent experiences so that it is seamless with our email and landing page experiences. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
They appear to be a small team so when you require service beyond self-serve it can be difficult to get in touch. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The best thing about AddEvent is that its unterface is pretty straightforward and you can create invites with minimum clicks, it also provides code for the buttons and insight of how many people have added the invite to their calendar.
Also the whole process of the tasks that i use it for is very fast so in just a few minutes, I'm done with creating events and generating add to calendar buttons for my campaigns. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There aren't much downsides but it would be great if they can add more designs to the add to calendar buttons of possible.
Also, sometimes the event that I create doesn't show up on my main calenday, sometimes its very fast to show. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
