Whova does not publish pricing publicly. Based on user reports and procurement records, Whova typically quotes $1,500–$3,500 per event for conferences in the 200–1,000 attendee range. Larger events or multi-event packages may run higher. You must contact Whova sales for a quote — there is no self-serve pricing page. For an organization running two or three conferences per year, that adds up to $3,000–$10,000+ annually.

Yes. CompleteEvent ships a progressive web app (PWA) that works on any smartphone browser, plus native iOS and Android apps built with Capacitor. Attendees get an app icon on their home screen, offline access to the agenda and their personal schedule, and push notifications for announcements. Whova has a more polished dedicated native app with richer in-app networking — that is the main area where Whova's mobile experience has an edge.

Yes. Registered attendees can view a networking directory, see each other's profiles, and send direct messages. CompleteEvent does not have Whova's meetup scheduling, virtual meeting rooms, or gamified networking leaderboard. If those specific features drive your attendee experience, Whova is the stronger choice for networking. For most conferences, the directory and messaging cover the core need.

At CompleteEvent Pro with the 20% academic or nonprofit discount, you pay $39.20/month — $470.40 for a full year, covering unlimited events. At Whova's typical per-event pricing of $1,500–$3,500, two conferences cost $3,000–$7,000. Three conferences cost $4,500–$10,500. The monthly subscription model means your cost stays flat whether you run one event or ten in a year.

Yes. Nonprofits (501(c)(3)), 501(c)(6) trade associations, and accredited educational institutions receive 20% off all paid plans. Starter drops to $15.20/month and Pro drops to $39.20/month. The discount is self-certified at checkout — no documentation or approval process required.

Yes. CompleteEvent includes abstract submission with blind peer review, scoring rubrics, CFP settings, a program builder, speaker portals for bio and slide uploads, multi-track scheduling, and certificates of attendance for CPE tracking. These features cover the standard workflow for academic, medical, and professional association conferences. See the live counselors conference demo at completeevent.app/demos/counselors-conference.
