It saves a significant amount of time onsite, and the ability to print badges on demand is a huge advantage. > > **Cons**: The biggest drawback is how difficult the setup can be, especially for new users. A lot of key functions are hidden within the backend, and the navigation isn’t always intuitive, which can make configuration more time‑consuming than expected. > > Overall, I’ve had a great experience with Cvent OnArrival. It keeps our check‑in process smooth and efficient and saves our team a lot of time onsite. The only challenge is the initial setup, which isn’t always intuitive, but once you get the hang of it, the system works incredibly well. ----- ### "OnArrival Premium Review" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *17 February 2026* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: OnArrival is easy to use and works seamlessly for badge printing and/ or capturing attendance for in-person events. > > **Cons**: It is expensive compared to some other tools making it difficult to utilize for events with limited budget. ----- ### "Higher price for a great product" — 4.0/5 > **Rhea** | *28 November 2025* | Nonprofit Organisation Management | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: OnArrival is a great tool for tracking attendee check-in and badge printing. It offers tons of reports and the individual session scanning works well onsite and provides accurate counts to track event no-shows. The kiosk system is very intuitive in self check in and manual “face to face” modes. Looking at peak live registration numbers over 4 iPads, registration staff were able to easily check in close to 200 attendees in under an hour. Cvent also offers lots of staffing support in the lead up and onsite to ensure a smooth rollout and use. > > **Cons**: This software is quite pricey so allocate a healthy budget if you are using this system. Because badges are an essential part of our meeting security, I feel it is worth it. > > This is actually one of the easiest parts of the meeting I produce. After using it for 5 conferences, I feel confident in OnArrival getting the job done. ----- ### "Cvent OnArrival Easy to Learn and Implement" — 5.0/5 > **Jennifer** | *9 June 2025* | Nonprofit Organisation Management | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: The ability to use multiple check-in stations while continuing to access registration details in Cvent OnArrival. Create specialized reports based on the type of event and information requested by stakeholders. > > **Cons**: Least favorite aspect is the inability to turn Cvent OnArrival off credit the event back to the contract. > > Great overall experience. Learned to access the software with very little prior knowledge. 1. I currently use Cvent OnArrival to manage the registration process, check-in staff members and view statistics on the registration process. I am often able to determine if a second day of registration expense is required based on the data pulled from OnArrival. ----- ### "Good Tool for Check In" — 3.0/5 > **Jessica** | *1 August 2019* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: We use this in conjunction with Cvent as our check in process. Love the functionality of it for our printing. > > **Cons**: Wish the larger OnArrival printers were more readily available. Pricing is too high for our standard events. Never sure if our stock from PC Namtag works with our printer until we have it on hand. Wish there was more knowledge about that. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ie/software/1006612/onarrival?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ie/software/1006612/onarrival) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | ----- ## Structured Data
