"Streamlined Event App with Great Features"
What do you like best about Whova?

Whova is fairly intuitive and easy to navigate, which makes a big difference during busy events. I especially appreciate that each session has a dedicated place for Q&A, note-taking, and chatting with other attendees. Having all event documents in one place is very convenient, and the event guide helps keep everything organized. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Whova?

When I get a notification about a reply or reaction, it doesn’t take me directly to that specific response, which would be a helpful feature. Also, communities, topics, and polls can feel a little jumbled, so a clearer layout in that area would improve the experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Seamless Event App for Networking and Planning"
What do you like best about Whova?

I loved how easy it was to connect with attendees—messaging, group discussions, and contact sharing were seamless. The agenda tools made planning my visit effortless, and having every presentation available in one place meant I never missed key information. I also appreciated being able to share a QR code to quickly exchange my contact details. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Whova?

I may have missed a few opportunities in the app simply because I wasn’t aware of all the features at first. A clearer introduction or guided tour for first-time users would make the experience even better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A Powerful Tool for Conference Connections"
What do you like best about Whova?

Whova is an incredibly useful tool for navigating conferences and building connections. It allows attendees to view the full agenda, create personalized schedules, and connect directly with other participants and presenters. The attendee list makes it easy to remember names, titles, and organizations, which is especially helpful in large spaces. The messaging and discussion boards are great for continuing conversations beyond sessions. Plus, the built-in leaderboard and gamification features add a fun and engaging layer that encourages exploration and interaction throughout the event. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Whova?

The app can sometimes feel a bit cluttered with so many features in one place. Notifications can become overwhelming if not managed, and depending on how organizers set it up, some session info or speaker materials might not be fully updated. Also, if you're not checking it regularly, it’s easy to miss direct messages or announcements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Whova: an app for your event comes alive."
What do you like best about Whova?

I really like using Whova because it keeps everything about the event organized in one place—from the agenda to the tools that help you connect with other attendees. I appreciate how Whova encourages participation through helpful reminders and interactive features. With events like this, where there is so much information that it can be easy to feel overwhelmed or lost, Whova makes the experience clearer and more manageable. It truly helps you feel included, supported, and like an important part of the event. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Whova?

One area where I believe the app could continue to improve is by adding a space where attendees can share videos from each workshop. I think this feature would enhance the overall experience, allowing participants to revisit key moments, learn from one another, and stay even more connected throughout the event.
