Their human customer service is quick to respond and helpful. I find their user guides intuitive, appreciate the customization we can do for sponsors (including push-notifications to attendees), the ability to allow presenters to edit their descriptions, and the new call-for-proposals feature to handle the submission and acceptance process in one place. > > **Cons**: The product has grown so much over the years. I think the few things that 10 years ago made it more of an affordable Plan B when you couldn't afford Plan A have been addressed. They really listen to users on feature requests and suggestions, and provide fantastic support when I don't know how to do something. > > I've taken demo calls with dozens of vendors, and used 5 different apps to host various conferences. Sched stands out for their customer service, pricing, ease of use, and consistent iteration and evolution with valuable features. I've never experienced a service outage. And unlike some vendors, they don't incessantly spam you once they have your email address. Nor do they do sketchy behaviors like mining your attendee list to then spam them with direct marketing outreach to attendees they think host their own events. I've exclusively used Sched for almost four years now, and don't see myself looking to change anytime soon. ----- ### "The Sched team is also your team" — 5.0/5 > **Selena** | *13 June 2025* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The entire Sched team - from initial sales to tech support - is outstanding. And they really listen to feedback. On more than one occasion we've seen suggestions from our attendees incorporated into the platform. > > **Cons**: They are always improving the platform, but occasionally their web tutorials don't include new info. > > They are genuinely interested in your event's success and not just selling you a tool to use for it. ----- ### "Living la vida Sched" — 5.0/5 > **Nilufar** | *12 June 2025* | Religious Institutions | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: How intuitive it is for both admin and attendees; the color coding; the beautiful layout; the helpfulness of its staff. > > **Cons**: My event runs several simultaneous sessions in rooms of various capacity. I'd love the ability to permanently associate a room to a certain capacity, but it is not available. > > We were so happy with it after our first year, that we signed up for the second year. It's significantly better than all the other providers of similar products we have checked out so far. ----- ### "Director of Learning & Innovation" — 5.0/5 > **Connie** | *15 October 2025* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Sched makes event organization and communication seamless. The user interface is intuitive, allowing attendees to easily browse sessions, build personalized schedules, and receive real-time updates. As an event organizer, I appreciate how easily we can manage speakers, session details, and last-minute changes in one place. The integration with email reminders and mobile access has also been a huge benefit, ensuring participants stay informed and engaged. > > **Cons**: The reporting and analytics features could be a bit more robust, but the overall functionality and ease of use of the platform far outweigh this minor limitation. > > I have been using Sched for nine years, and they continue to improve. I would highly recommend it to any organization hosting events of any size. ----- ### "Support is Responsive" — 5.0/5 > **Rod** | *10 March 2025* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Simplicity of the tasks makes it easy to organize and manage events. > > **Cons**: There are still some features that need to be added for full functionality > > Support is very responsive. I am always able to get the help I need and better understand how to use the tools available. ----- Page: 1 / 5\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.za/software/125306/sched-org?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.za/software/125306/sched-org) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | | sv | | ----- ## Structured Data
