"Fosters Community and Easy Interaction"

attendees are in a community and I liked the ability to say 'hi' also everything is in one place from the agenda to communicating about our exhibitor booths Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Whova?

Not sure if I might have missed but some very net training how to use the app, how to win points, contests would have been good Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A tool for networking"
What do you like best about Whova?

As an exhibitor, Whova provides a direct tool for networking by allowing the "scan lead" function in the app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The need for a strong wifi to enable the scan function Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Brings the Community Together in One Place"
What do you like best about Whova?

It creates a community and allows connections beyond the meeting. It facilitates in person meetings during the congress. Everything is one place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Whova?

I would have liked to be able to have a separate calendar for the event only, as it goes to my personal calendar (as I use a personal phone). it would be nice to have the option to link different calendars or have a separate calendar for the event.

Also, it creates a community, but it is not clear what will happen to shared photos, messages, contact information after the meeting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Finally and event platform that doesn't feel like a ghost town"
What do you like best about Whova?

Whova made it incredibly easy to prepare for and participate fully. I enjoyed using Whova as a networking companion at Stanford's Scaling Sustainability Innovation 2025. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Whova?

This was my first time using the app at a conference and like all other apps it requires a bit of heavy lifting getting all your information into the app. Better integration with platforms like Linked In can streamline and minimize the initial setup/configuration time.

"A Great App to Connect with Like-minded People"
What do you like best about Whova?

This is the first time I use Whova and I am pleased by the experience. The display UI/UX and the feature really helped me to connect and discuss with other people. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Whova?

I like being connected with others, so I used the feature that listed people with the same interest like me. Unfortunately, I cannot see whether the person are actively using Whova or not, so sometimes I am being ghosted by the person just because they are not constantly logged in to their account.

"Great mobile interface, desktop not so much"
What do you like best about Whova?

The ease of scanning leads directly from the mobile app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Whova?

The desktop/laptop interface seems more cumbersome, especially having to do 2-factor authentication every time you log on.

Not sure what I was doing incorrectly, but over half of the notes I took did not save.

Now that the show is over, I am experiencing difficulties exporting leads. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We really liked Whova, but their customer service is poor. Is there a comparable service to try?
