Comparison

Event Credentialing Pro vs Jotform

Jotform can collect press credential requests. Event Credentialing Pro handles what happens after the form: review, status, approvals, badges, client visibility and event-day scanning.

Built for credentialing

  • Branded media and creator applications
  • Approve, decline and waitlist workflows
  • QR-coded badges and mobile check-in
  • Client status boards and private uploads

Form intake is only the start

A form builder may be enough for basic intake. It becomes harder when teams need a live workflow that connects applicant status, reviewer decisions, badges and check-in.

  • No separate spreadsheet needed for approval status
  • No manual badge workflow after approval
  • No separate client status report
  • No printed list needed for check-in

When ECP is the better fit

Choose Event Credentialing Pro when press and influencer applications need to become approved credentials, not just form submissions.
