EventMobi Starts with the App. We Start at the Registration Desk.
EventMobi began as an event app and now sells BadgeON printing stations and per-company lead licences. eventcloud starts where delegates do: a form, price schedule and confirmation email per audience, badges designed in real millimetres and printed at a self-service kiosk, and a check-in link any steward can open on their own phone. Competitor facts checked 27 October 2026. Sources and dates are listed below.

How to read it. Yes, Partial and No describe each platform today; Not confirmed means we could not confirm it from public sources on the date checked, never that it is missing. Coming soon marks what eventcloud is building now, and the row still goes to whoever does it today. Tell us if a fact has changed.

What Gets Counted
What Each Platform Meters.
EventMobi's annual plan counts attendees. eventcloud counts the people on your team.

EventMobi Counts
Attendee licences
The annual plan covers unlimited events with a set attendee count; unused licences roll over; custom above 10,000 attendees S2.
What unlimited covers here, and the few limits that remain, is written out just below.
Unlimited, with the Small Print Printed Large.
No attendee licences to count or roll over. Here is the whole scope, small print included.
Unlimited events, registrations and attendees on every plan. We count team seats, not tickets, so your bill does not rise because your event sells out. The limits that do exist are operational, not commercial: 99 of one ticket type per order line, 10,000 orders per Excel export, five languages per event, and one subdomain and one sending domain per organisation.
Where Each One Starts
App First or Desk First?
EventMobi's strengths sit inside the attendee app: messaging, live chat, push and gamification. eventcloud's sit at the registration desk, where every audience gets its own form and every answer can reach the badge.
A form per audience: members, speakers, exhibitors and press each get their own form, with page breaks and a Terms question recorded on every order.
Answers that travel: every answer can land on the badge, the confirmation email, the attendee list and the Excel export.
Prices that switch themselves: early bird to standard to door price on a schedule, plus group rates from a set number of tickets, with nobody flipping a switch at midnight.
The app, in the browser: a web app on attendees' phones with the agenda, their booked sessions, sponsors and one-to-one messaging, and nothing to download.
Where the Facts Come From
Sources.
Every competitor fact on this page links here, with the date we checked it.
EventMobi's pricing page says "Starts at $3000 per event" and "Starts at $8,900 per year" for unlimited events, with attendee licences that roll over, custom pricing above 10,000 attendees and standard integrations from $1,000 each. Lead capture licences are $50 per exhibiting company, sold in packs of 10, and BadgeON rents from $1,250 for a five-day conference (EventMobi pricing, lead capture and BadgeON launch pages, checked 27 October 2026). eventcloud's price is on our pricing page, and it meters team seats only.
Does eventcloud have an event app like EventMobi?
Yes, a web app on attendees' phones, so there is nothing to download: the agenda, a personal agenda with their booked sessions, sponsors, one-to-one messaging and their ticket QR. Coming soon: push notifications and an exhibitor directory in the app. What would your attendees open it for? Tell us.
Can we print badges on site?
Yes. Turn a laptop and the printer beside it into a self-service Badge Kiosk: visitors type their ticket number, or find themselves by name or email if you switch that on, check the badge and print it, and printing checks them in. Start Edge or Chrome in kiosk mode on a Windows laptop, with the command on the Badge Kiosk page, and badges print with no dialog. There is no station to rent: bring a laptop and a badge printer, and the door runs on phones.
Can members pay by invoice?
Coming soon: pay by invoice, bank transfer or purchase order. Need it for your members? Tell us. Card payments go through Stripe's hosted checkout straight to your account. For members who pay off-platform, capture a PO number on the form, hold the place and send them a payment link, or add them by hand once they have settled.
Can exhibitors scan leads?
Yes. Lead retrieval comes with every seat: exhibitors use their own phones to scan the QR code on each attendee's badge or in their event app, rate and qualify each lead, and export their leads to Excel. No charge from us per scanner or per lead. You decide whether exhibitors get it with their pass or buy it at checkout for a price you set. EventMobi licenses lead capture per exhibiting company, with unlimited booth staff.
Can we try eventcloud for free?
Yes. You can build the whole event, rehearse checkout with Stripe test cards and rehearse check-in on a draft event for free; you subscribe when you are ready to publish. Free events get the same ticket PDFs, QR codes and confirmations as paid ones.
