Eventzilla review
Bottom line
Eventzilla is a per-registration event platform that covers event websites, ticketing, agendas, speaker intake, check-in, and reporting. Its clearest strength is the free starting point combined with pay-as-you-go pricing and no long commitment. Watch the total cost: payment processing fees are billed separately, the Basic plan allows only one paid ticket type, and the Event Hub virtual and mobile features are add-ons. It suits small and mid-size organizers running in-person or hybrid events who want to start without a contract.
What is Eventzilla?
Eventzilla is an event management platform for conferences, conventions, training courses, fundraisers, webinars, and hybrid events. It handles the work that often gets split across separate tools: building an event website, taking registrations and payments, publishing an agenda, checking attendees in, and reporting on sales and attendance. Organizers run the event from one account instead of stitching together spreadsheets and standalone registration forms. The company was founded in 2009.
Day to day, an organizer builds the event site with a no-code, drag-and-drop website builder, then sets up ticket types, registration forms, and confirmation emails. Registration forms support conditional logic, so follow-up questions appear based on earlier answers. The agenda builder handles multi-day, multi-track sessions, and the call for speakers collects abstracts and routes them to a review panel. On the day, staff check guests in at a kiosk or with the organizer mobile app, print badges, and sell tickets onsite. A real-time dashboard tracks sales and registrations, and custom reports can be scheduled to arrive by email.
The platform serves freelancers, small businesses, mid-size organizations, and enterprises. Pricing is pay as you go per registration on the Basic plan, with Pro at 1.9% plus $1.50 per registration and Plus at 2.9% plus $1.50 per registration. The Scale plan uses custom pricing and is billed annually. Free events stay free, and organizers can choose to pass ticketing fees on to attendees on paid plans.
What sets Eventzilla apart is its pricing model and its integration reach. Organizers pay for registrations rather than committing to a fixed contract, and the free tier lets them start without a card. Zapier connects the platform to more than 500 apps, a public API and webhook options allow custom data flows, and native connections cover CRMs such as HubSpot, Salesforce, and Zoho. Virtual and hybrid features, including the Event Hub lobby, virtual stage, and attendee mobile app, are sold as add-ons on top of the core plans.
