Eventdex vs Eventzilla

An Eventzilla alternative for trade shows and conferences

Eventzilla is a self-serve registration platform priced per registration. Eventdex is built for business events with exhibitors and scheduled meetings, and quotes each program as a whole.

The short answer

Choose Eventdex if

  • You run trade shows or conferences where exhibitors book booths and attendees book meetings.
  • You would rather have a quoted program than a fee on every registration.
  • You want a white-label app and onsite badge printing set up with you.

Choose Eventzilla if

  • You run smaller events and want to start on your own, free for free events, paying per registration.
  • Published, self-serve pricing matters more to you than a quoted program.
