ClearEvent

ClearEvent is a cloud-based conference and event management system that consolidates the administrative work of running conferences, trade shows, festivals and competitions into one place. It is aimed at event organisers who otherwise juggle separate tools for registration forms, payment collection, exhibitor applications, sponsor promotion and attendee communication, often reconciling data manually between them. ClearEvent's approach is to let organisers build fully custom forms for every audience, including attendees, exhibitors, sponsors, speakers and volunteers, and then link submissions directly to payments, schedules and event websites. This form-centred design means that one system can handle both simple registrations and more elaborate processes such as juried submissions or booth applications. The product is known for giving smaller teams capabilities that would otherwise require custom development.

Key features include a drag-and-drop form builder with conditional logic, online payment processing with support for discounts, invoices and add-on products, and an integrated website builder for publishing event information, schedules and sponsor listings. Exhibitor and vendor management tools cover booth assignment, application review and logistics, while speaker and session management helps assemble the programme. Sponsor promotion features let organisers showcase sponsors across the event site and communications, adding tangible value to sponsorship packages. Communication tools allow targeted email messages to attendees and other groups, and dashboards and reports provide real-time insight into registrations, revenue and outstanding tasks. The system supports judging workflows for competitions and award programmes, and data can be exported for use in accounting and marketing systems. ClearEvent is delivered as software as a service and suits associations, non-profit organisations, trade show organisers, festival producers and professional conference planners, particularly small teams responsible for recurring annual events. Pricing starts from around USD 895, typically per event or on an annual plan, and a free trial is available; there is no permanently free version.
