BrioLabel Event Check-In vs EventCreate

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.

EventCreate is an event management platform for event websites, registration, RSVPs, ticket sales, attendee tracking, and event operations. Organizers can build customizable event websites without coding or server setup, then choose Simple, RSVP, Ticketed, or Multi-Event registration. QR check-in works through an app or desktop, with on-demand namebadge printing. The platform accepts major card brands, offline payments, and donations, and says payments transfer directly to organizers. Customers own attendee data and can export lists as CSV or Excel files. The free plan includes one event, 50 attendees, and one user, with a 5% ticketing fee. Paid annual-billed plans begin at $5 a month; Personal includes unlimited events, 50 attendees per event, one user, and a 2% ticketing fee. Higher plans raise attendee and user limits while reducing ticketing fees, with Enterprise listing a 0% fee. Annual and monthly billing are available, and upgrades are prorated for the remaining billing cycle. Mobile attendee apps are available on iOS and Android in the United States, Canada, and Australia.
