    How we compare with other event platforms

    If you run Caribbean events, these are the platforms you are most likely weighing us against. We have put our fees and features next to theirs, linked every figure to where it came from, and said plainly where they do something better.

    Prices and features checked on . They change often, so check a platform's own site before you decide.

    Side-by-side comparisons

    How we checked

    Every competitor figure comes from that platform's own pricing page, help centre or published terms, and each page lists its sources. Where we could not find something on their site, we say so instead of guessing. Our own figures come from our fee guide and organiser documentation.
