Accelevents vs BrioLabel Event Check-In

Accelevents brings registration, sessions, virtual booths, networking, attendee engagement, and reporting into a platform for in-person, virtual, and hybrid events. Organizers can stream using Accelevents or connect Zoom for live sessions, and offer recordings on demand alongside scheduled participation. Attendees can chat, request connections or meetings, join timed one-to-one networking, and take part in workshops with up to 25 people on camera. The virtual event hub supports announcements, activity-based challenges, and leaderboards. During an event, organizers can track registration, attendance, and engagement in sessions and booths. Connections with Marketo, Salesforce, and HubSpot support exchanging attendee and registration data. Attendees can join through a browser or mobile event app, depending on event setup. The platform has a free plan, and listed paid plan sizes range from one event with 500 registrants on Professional to unlimited events on White Label. Continuing education features are available on Business, Enterprise, and White Label plans. Every plan includes 24/7 support, with an average response time of 21 seconds.

BrioLabel Event Check-In imports attendee lists, helps staff find attendees at a kiosk, records check-ins, and prints event badges. Lists can be uploaded as CSV files exported from Excel, Google Sheets, or a registration platform. During import, the tool maps attendee columns and flags fields that would print blank. At the kiosk, staff can search for attendees, check them in and print badges in one action, reprint badges, or undo a mistaken action. Walk-ins can be added directly, online or offline. Once the kiosk has loaded, search, check-in, printing, and walk-in registration continue without a connection; queued actions sync when connectivity returns. Badge design uses the same drag-and-drop editor as BrioLabel shipping and product labels. Attendee lists and badge designs can be changed independently, including during an event. The free Hobby plan allows 200 labels per month. Paid plans start at $9/mo for 500 labels per month, and all paid plans include the complete feature set but differ in monthly label allowance. The free Desktop Agent connects the browser to local printers.
