Eventtia vs Eventzilla (2026): which should you pick?

Pick Eventtia if

• Fits if you run big conferences or trade shows and prefer one yearly fee to per-ticket fees
• Works for teams that need a branded app and a virtual stage for hybrid events

Look elsewhere if

• Skip it if you want to try it free first, as there is no free plan or trial
• Pricey if you sell tickets to small events: $1,650 a year is the floor, for 250 attendees
• Tight if you have a big team, with 1 admin seat on Essential, 2 on Premium and 3 on Networking
• Watch out: the fee rises with total attendees across all events in 12 months, and the quote is confirmed on a call
• Not for you if you want a public marketplace listing of tickets, as it is built for managed events

Pick Eventzilla if

• Fits if you run conferences that need agendas, speakers and badges
• Works for training providers and associations taking paid registrations

Look elsewhere if

• Pricey if you sell low-priced tickets, as the $1.50 per registration doesn't shrink with the price
• Tight if you stay on Basic, which allows only one paid ticket type
• Watch out: agendas and conditional logic on free events need an add-on from $49 a month, and webinars cost $11.99 a month
• Not for you if you want a flat price without fees, as Scale has no published price and is quoted by sales
• Skip it if you want to pass processing fees to buyers without moving to Plus and Eventzilla Payments

Eventtia
