Why Event Professionals Are Switching
I built Zenvents360 based on feedback from hundreds of 17Hats users who wanted modern features, better automation, and more affordable scaling options.
Modern Automation
17Hats automation is basic. Zenvents360 offers smart workflows, better follow-ups, and intelligent templates with advanced automation.
Better Value & Flexible Scaling
17Hats charges $50/month annually ($60 monthly), plus $5/month per extra user. Zenvents360 starts at $49 monthly for small teams, scales affordably. No annual commitment required.
Built for Modern Businesses
17hats feels outdated. Zenvents360 is built on modern technology with a clean interface, mobile-first design, and integrations you actually need.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you migrate my data from 17hats?
Yes, as a managed migration starting at $99. How much carries over depends on what 17hats lets you export, and I will tell you what I can and cannot bring before you pay anything. I have proven a complete migration from DJ Event Planner. I have not yet run a 17hats migration end to end, so I will look at your export first and quote honestly rather than promise everything.
What if I'm on an annual 17hats plan?
No problem! Start your 30-day free Zenvents360 trial now and get comfortable with the platform. You can switch when your 17hats contract expires. Many customers run both temporarily to ensure a smooth transition.
Is Zenvents360 really better than 17hats?
I think so! Zenvents360 offers more modern technology, conditional workflow automation, and more transparent pricing. But don't take my word for it. Start a free trial and see for yourself.
Will my clients notice the switch?
Your clients will receive invoices, proposals, and portal access from Zenvents360 instead of 17hats. With white labeling (included in all plans), everything is branded with your business name and logo.
What does support actually look like?
Support is by email, and it comes from me. I built Zenvents360 and I answer the mail, so you are never explaining your business to a tier-one agent reading a script. 17hats has a larger in-house team with live chat, which is a real advantage if you want an instant answer at 2am. What I offer is the person who can actually change the software.
How long does migration take?
It depends on what your export contains and how much cleanup it needs. I look at the export first, tell you what will carry across and what will not, and quote before any work starts. I do the mapping, not you.
