## Reviews

### "Human Rights Connecting with Whova" — 5.0/5

> **Margaret K-J Shantée Maggie** | *25 March 2026* | Civic & Social Organisation | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Whova allowed me to quickly scan the many side event offerings at the 2026 United Nations Commission on the Status of Women to determine the best use of my time and focus for the nine days of the conference.  Whova also provided a direct way to communicate with other attendees, more than 4,600 civil society representatives\!
> 
> **Cons**: I would have liked an Index of the many offerings of the nine days of the UNCSW70.  Sometimes I missed events I would have liked to attend\!
> 
> I cannot imagine a better way to interface with a global gathering\!  Thanks to generous cousins I stayed in midtown Manhattan and walked a mile to and from the United Nations every day for nine days of the UNCSW70 in March, 2026.  Whova kept me attending some of the most meaningful presentations and discussions of my life\!

### "Take a Chance with Whova" — 5.0/5

> **Dr. Terri** | *5 June 2025* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It is easy to work with and self explanatory. It is clearly labeled, and the support team is there to help when needed. Also, there are videos and offers of tutorials throughout the contract period.
> 
> **Cons**: It is not too much I can say I like least about Whova. If anything, it would be the cost; however, if you want a quality product, you have to pay the price.
> 
> I have used them twice for our Alabama Adult Education Conference. Each time, it was easy to navigate, easy to use, and easy to build. I also used them via our national adult education conference. It was a breeze.

### "Very well organized and easy to access" — 5.0/5

> **May** | *19 March 2026* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like Whova  because it provides easy conference scheduled, very well organized. It is free and when it is installed it does not take space.
> 
> **Cons**: I did not have any issue. Everything worked for me. I was able to install it and is direct , there was not any issue.
> 
> It is free and helps you to keep on truck.  You can read the summary of conference's sessions , they are short and to the point.

-----

### "Whova All In One App" — 3.0/5

> **Marsha** | *31 May 2026* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Whova is convenient and organized platform which makes school professional development events easy to schedule.
> 
> **Cons**: Whova has many notifications and added features which I found overwhelming at first. With some practice, Whova can be a great management app.
> 
> I found Whova a little confusing and expensive. I personally didn’t need everything that the Whova app offered.

### "Why Aren't YOU using Whova?" — 5.0/5

> **Renee** | *26 May 2026* | Mental Health Care | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I really liked the way it set up and managed the conference.  I hadn't used it since last year, but it didn't take long to remember the ease of navigation between everything this conference does; so easy to get right back into it.
> 
> **Cons**: The thing I liked the least about Whova is that some of the titles of the different activities seemed to be two different words for the same thing:  I would get quite confused with what the difference was in the following: Icebreakers (I think the questions were fixed to only 4-thought I'd be creating my own), then Polls: I went there and was able to create my own, but I thought I wasn't doing polls, just entering a question where I'd seen more Qs on the app.  So, possibly I created a Survey rather than a Poll\! I just checked surveys and it took me to Session feedback instead?
> 
> Overall, I have enjoyed my experience with Whova and I wish more large conferences would migrate over. Last year, I sent in a suggestion to the NCJSA-North Carolina Juvenile Services Association-that they take a look at Whova and see where it might help them.  That's also an annual, and fairly large, conference I enjoy.  I have no way of knowing if they did.  I really like all the app opportunities for networking, that it doesn't always happen personally, but still feels personal and like a real connection.  Thank you\!
