Review frequently asked questions associated to Cvent Flex.
Q: What is Flex?
A: Flex [3] is Cvent's newest way to create your events. It provides a drag-and-drop site designer to make creating a custom, modern looking website easy.
Q: What does Flex do? What does Flex NOT do?
A: Some of the benefits of Flex [3] include the new drag-and-drop site designer, device responsiveness, enhanced visual elements and a drag-and-drop email designer. Downsides include not being able to collect donations. Review the complete list of available and pending features [4] to determine which events you can and cannot transition to Flex.
Q: Do I have to transition to Flex right now?
A: Not, right now - but very soon. Learn more about the timelines associated to Classic sunsetting (July 1 - Dec. 31, 2021) [5].
Q: Are the same Classic features available in Flex?
A: Cvent is regularly releasing additional features in Flex [4] until it mirrors standard registration.
Q: How will I get trained?
A: We are here to help! You will have the opportunity to attend on-campus, virtual [6], or on-demand training [7].
Q: Is there a 'Convert my Standard event to Flex' button?
A: Sadly, no. You will need to create a new Flex event and customize it to mirror your previous Standard event form, once all features your event requires are available [4].
Q: Should I transition all my events at once?
A: That's ambitious! Instead of transitioning everything at once, we encourage you to prioritize your events and re-create them in Flex one at a time. Learn more about how to transition successfully [5].
