Why teams switch from EventCloud to Univents

1

Univents covers the entire workflow after the enquiry – staff scheduling, kitchen and production lists, automatic function sheets and finance – which are not a focus of EventCloud.

2

Univents ships a full AI assistant: a voice memo becomes an event, a connected mail inbox reads incoming enquiries, and chat commands drive the app – all trained on your own data.

3

Univents serves multiple verticals (caterers, venues, agencies, hotels, rental, food trucks) rather than only event venues, and offers DACH compliance such as XRechnung and DATEV.

FAQ: Univents vs EventCloud

Is EventCloud a good Univents alternative?

For pure event venues that mainly want a polished customer configurator with cross-selling, EventCloud is strong. If you want to cover the full operation after the enquiry – staff, kitchen, function sheets, finance and an AI assistant – Univents offers significantly more breadth.

What does EventCloud cost?

EventCloud costs EUR 149/month (up to 3,000 guests/year) and EUR 289/month (up to 6,000 guests/year); higher volumes use Enterprise pricing on request. According to the vendor, all tiers include the full feature package.

Does EventCloud offer staff scheduling and function sheets?

EventCloud offers a team run-of-show overview, but dedicated staff scheduling with time tracking and automatically generated function sheets are not a focus. Univents has both as core features.
