Which one fits your event, Tavata or Liveto?

If you sell admission tickets to the public, to a museum, a concert, a theatre or a sports event, Liveto is built for that. If your company or organisation runs a seminar, a conference, a recruitment event or a members' event, where people register and are meant to meet each other, Tavata by Eventilla is built for that.

The difference shows in how each describes itself. Liveto's home page calls it a ticket sales and management system for events ("tapahtumien lipunmyynti- ja hallintajärjestelmä") and says that tickets worth more than 50 million euros have been sold on the platform. It has sector pages for museums, trade fairs, venues, festivals and concerts, sports events and theatres, and also for associations, companies, projects and educational institutions. Eventilla is the organiser's event management software, and Tavata is the attendees' event app, whose strongest feature is attendee matching and 1:1 meetings.

Built for different events

Liveto: events that sell tickets

Museums, festivals and concerts, theatres, sports events, trade fairs and venues. Visitors buy a ticket online or at the door, and the organiser needs a ticket shop, add-on sales, a point of sale and access control. Liveto also serves companies. Its page for companies names expert events, B2B seminars, staff events and webinars.

Tavata: events that businesses run

Conferences and seminars, recruitment events, buyer–supplier workshops and member networks of companies and organisations. Attendees are invited and register, and the organiser wants the right people to meet. The app suggests contacts, and attendees book 1:1 meetings with each other.
