Let’s Talk Timelines
With all the excitement of the evolving Cvent platform, you may be wondering… when do we say goodbye to Classic Registration for good?
Starting in mid-2021, you will not be able to create any new Flex events – whether it be creating from scratch, via copy, or via template. The next milestone will be 31 December 2021 – ALL Classic Registration events must end by this date. We will be sure to communicate with plenty of notice, both in-app and by email, before any these milestones occur.
We’re here to help you through your transition to Flex. It’s an exciting time for Cvent Event Management, and we’re eager for you to adopt the new modern design tools to build greater events than ever before.
- Read our Flex Transition Guide, or take a look through the Flex Transition Toolkit for help with larger, complex change management.
- Ask questions to our 24/7 Customer Support team or other users in the Cvent Community.
- Schedule a strategic discussion with your Cvent Account Team to talk through your unique transition.
