Guidebook Reviews & Product Details

I've been using it for years, so I'm pretty familiar with it, how to uploads items, how to make changes. It's easy to make changes and push out an update at the last minute, such as when a speaker cancels. For users, once they download the app, it's pretty user friendly.

I prefer the metered guide, since it is much more affordable for my small meeting. Guidebook offered me a discount to help transition to the new pricing structure, but I suspect I'll have to find a less expensive alternative going forward. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy to use and update! Our guests and lecturers really seemed to like the platform, and I was happy with the options that were available (ex. adding photo albums, maps, schedules, etc.) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are a few user experience things that took some figuring out, but overall I had a positive experience. Unfortunately they changed their subscription types part way through setting up our guide that caused a small publication snag. The change was a little disappointing because in previous years we were able to use a year round guide for the price we paid, but they changed it to a 90-day guide.

The most helpful feature of Guidebook is that it offers a plethora of tools that helps to support our intern programming opportunities and events. It also is a great tool and platform for our interns to connect ahead of the internship program. The capabilities behind bulk uploading and integrating the intern class into the app is also very user-friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Our team would like to explore and customize the Leaderboard feature further to help with program engagement and enhance their overall experience; however, we are limited to only the pre-loaded challenges. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Guidebook is easy to get used to building within as a first time user, especially if you are using templates. If you do get stuck, there is a wealth of help online on their website and the customer service is very proactive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

So far you cannot directly replicate the app as an online version. This is unhelpful in terms of accessibility for things like screen readers etc. In addition to that, you are only able to upload files as PDFs. This means users cannot download something like a template and use it for their own purposes - we would have to create a dropbox or cloud link and get the raw document to them like that. This is a significant yet simple feature that is lacking. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like most about guidebook is the UI is pretty simple to understand. It has a bit of a learning curve but once you get the idea of what you're looking for, the app is simple to use throughout a long event. I would open the app multiple times a day for different actions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would say sometimes the app would not be ready for such a big event so when we are using it, it takes about 20 minutes for us to be able to log people in and use it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I loved how easy Guidebook made it to create and customize our event app. The user-friendly interface let me update schedules and content on the fly, and attendees appreciated having everything in one place. It was a great tool for keeping everyone informed and engaged before and during the event. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One thing I wish Guidebook offered was more flexibility in customizing and designing the homepage. It would be great to have more options for layout, branding, and adding additional buttons or quick links to better fit the unique needs of our organization’s events.

Very clear to show the events throughout the day and which groups belong to each event. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
