✅ Flexible pricing model that adapts to your needs — from per-event plans to unlimited event programs. Clear, modular pricing makes it easy for exhibitors to plan and control costs.
⚠️ Also uses event-based and meeting-volume pricing, but pricing is not publicly listed and typically requires a custom enterprise quote.
Unlimited Events & Users / Admins
✅ Unlimited users and admins included in every contract, making it easy to onboard large sales teams, booth staff, and event managers without extra fees.
⚠️ User and admin limits depend on the enterprise tier or contract, and may require upgrades for larger teams.
Outlook / Google Calendar Sync
✅ Included. Reads real availability (including OOO handling), supports live availability sharing (email, website, social media, QR codes), and allows automatic guest rescheduling.
⚠️ Calendar integration is typically an add-on and out-of-the-box, meaning limited customization. Availability may also be blocked by Outlook / Google OOO events.
CRM Synchronization
✅ Advanced API-based CRM integration included in the package, with full customization, automatic data sync, and syncing of notes & follow-up tasks.
⚠️ CRM integration is usually an add-on and out-of-the-box, offering limited customization compared to API-based sync.

⚠️ Supports global users but does not publicly advertise multilingual calendar / forms.
Side-Event & Offsite Event Scheduling
✅ Included. Built-in module for managing VIP dinners, receptions, hospitality events, and offsite meetings — all in the same platform as meetings, staffing, and lead capture.
⚠️ Side-event registration is not part of the Jifflenow platform. This capability exists only within the broader Cvent ecosystem and does not sit within Jifflenow’s meeting scheduling product.
Automatic CRM Updates
✅ Notes, meeting outcomes, and follow-up tasks can be logged in Lodago and synced automatically to CRM.
❌ CRM updates depend on the integration tier and out-of-the-box connectors; not all data types sync automatically.

❌ Primarily focused on meeting scheduling; other workflows require external tools.
Live Availability Sharing
✅ Share availability via QR codes, email campaigns, social media, ads, website embeds, or booth screens.

Why Teams Look for Jifflenow Alternatives

Event managers and exhibitors often start searching for “Jifflenow alternatives” when they need a more flexible, exhibitor-focused platform for managing high-volume meetings and leads at trade shows. The most common reasons include:

  1. 01

    Need for an all-in-one platform instead of multiple tools

    Many exhibitors want meetings, lead capture, staffing, side-events, and follow-ups in one place — not across different vendors or integrations.

  2. 02

    Desire for native lead scanning

    Teams managing booths prefer having badge and business card scanning built directly into the meeting workflow, instead of relying on separate scanning tools.

  3. 03

    Preference for a more exhibitor-focused workflow

    Jifflenow is powerful for enterprise meeting scheduling, but exhibitors often need workflows designed specifically for trade show operations.

  4. 04

    Wanting simpler, modular, predictable pricing

    Some companies look for clear, usage-based pricing that adapts to small or large event volumes.

  5. 05

    Reducing complexity for on-site staff

    Trade show teams typically need a tool booth staff can learn quickly, with no heavy configuration or long onboarding.

  6. 06

    Needing more automation across the event lifecycle

    Exhibitors increasingly want automation not only for scheduling, but also for scanning, follow-ups, staffing, and post-event performance tracking.

  7. 07

    Improving real-time visibility into performance

    Event teams managing many meetings per day need dashboards showing live KPIs, lead volume, no-shows, and meeting outcomes.

When Lodago Is a Better Fit

Lodago becomes the preferred choice for exhibitors and event managers when they need a platform designed specifically for trade-show workflows — not only for meeting scheduling, but for everything that happens before, during, and after the event. It is the best fit when:

  1. 01

    You want one platform to manage everything exhibitors do at trade shows

    Lodago centralizes meeting scheduling, lead scanning, staffing, side-events, and follow-ups in one place. This gives event managers full control over the entire exhibitor journey, from pre-show planning to post-show reporting.

  2. 02

    You need native lead capture tightly connected to meetings

    With built-in badge and business card scanning, booth teams can capture a lead and instantly turn it into a meeting, demo or follow-up — no third-party scanners, no app switching, and no manual data entry. Everything syncs automatically to your CRM.

  3. 03

    You attend one or many trade shows each year

    Lodago fits exhibitors who run many meetings — whether at one large annual event or across multiple trade shows. Integrations and unlimited users are included, so even single-event teams get full value, while multi-event teams can scale effortlessly.

  4. 04

    You want workflows built specifically for the pace of trade shows

    Short meeting slots, walk-ins, shifting calendars, and busy booths are all supported by Lodago, making scheduling, scanning, and managing booth operations much easier during high-traffic show hours.

  5. 05

    You need real-time visibility into your event performance

    Live dashboards, KPIs, and the AI Exhibitor Copilot give teams real-time insights into meetings, leads, and staff performance, helping them make decisions during the show — not after.

  6. 06

    Your on-site teams need something quick and easy to use

    Booth staff can learn Lodago in minutes. Scanning leads, creating meetings, and managing assignments are all straightforward and fast. Lodago’s interface is simple, intuitive, and designed for fast adoption.

  7. 07

    You want automation that supports the full event lifecycle

    From pre-event booking to on-site scanning, check-in, follow-ups, and CRM enrichment, Lodago automates the workflows exhibitors rely on the most.

When Lodago May Not Be a Good Fit

Lodago is built for exhibitors who want to manage meetings, leads, or both at trade shows. It may not be the right choice in a few specific situations.

  1. 01

    You only run one very small event with low meeting volume

    If you attend only one event per year and handle around 20 meetings or less, Lodago may be more robust than you need. The platform delivers the most value when exhibitors manage higher meeting volumes or participate in multiple trade shows annually.

  2. 02

    You don’t run meetings or capture leads at events

    Lodago is built specifically around meetings and lead capture. If your team only attends events for networking without scheduled meetings or structured lead capture, the platform may go underused.
