Ready to move your registration off Momentus?
Moving your registration data and active events off Momentus is the part most teams want mapped out before committing. Accelevents handles the migration for you, dedicated team included.

Momentus (formerly Ungerboeck) is a venue management platform built for convention centers, stadiums, arenas, and university campuses, where the core job is booking spaces and coordinating venue operations. Accelevents is an all-in-one event management platform built for the attendee-facing side of events: registration, ticketing, check-in, badge printing, and engagement, with native CRM sync to HubSpot and Salesforce. If your priority is modern, flexible event registration that flows straight into your CRM, that is the gap teams most often cite when they compare the two.

What is Momentus?

Momentus is venue and event management software. Its own site positions it as "the #1 venue management software" for convention centers, stadiums and arenas, performing arts centers, corporate campuses, and universities. The platform is strong where the core job is running a venue: booking calendars, space utilization, work orders, catering, contracts, billing, and coordinating multiple departments around a building or campus.

What is Accelevents?

Accelevents is an all-in-one event management platform built around the attendee experience. The core jobs are registration, ticketing, onsite check-in, badge design and printing, event websites, exhibitor and sponsor management, and attendee engagement across in-person, virtual, and hybrid events. It connects natively to HubSpot, Salesforce, and Marketo, and to other tools through Zapier and an open API.

The practical difference: Momentus is organized around the venue and its operations, while Accelevents is organized around the event and its attendees.

Accelevents vs Momentus for event registration

This is the comparison most teams are actually running, so it deserves detail.

Custom registration paths. Accelevents lets you set up unlimited registration categories, each with its own pricing, custom fields, conditional logic, and add-ons. That covers tiered tickets, member versus non-member pricing, group registration, and complex routing without workarounds.

Onsite check-in and badge printing. Accelevents includes a drag-and-drop badge designer with on-demand or pre-printed badges, QR-code check-in, and self-serve kiosks, all managed in the same platform that holds your registration data.

CRM sync that marketers can use. Accelevents pushes registration and attendee data into HubSpot and Salesforce natively. With HubSpot, new registrations create or update contacts, get added to marketing event objects or static lists, and can trigger deals with line items. That two-way flow is what lets marketing run pre-event drip campaigns and post-event follow-up without manual exports.

Speed and ease. Because registration is the core product rather than one module of a venue operations suite, teams can build and launch quickly, which matters when registration deadlines are fixed and staff is lean.

Momentus delivers registration as part of a wider venue operations platform. For organizations whose primary need is venue booking and operations, that breadth is the point. For organizations whose primary need is fast, flexible, CRM-connected attendee registration, that is where teams tend to look at a dedicated event platform.

When Momentus is the right call

Be fair to the incumbent. Momentus is a strong fit when:

  • You operate a physical venue or campus and need booking calendars, space utilization, and operations in one system.
  • Your priority is venue revenue, work orders, catering, and contracts more than attendee-facing registration.
  • You manage many internal events across a building or campus and need a shared operational source of truth.

When Accelevents is the right call

Teams typically choose Accelevents when:

  • Event registration, ticketing, and check-in are the core jobs, not venue operations.
  • They want registration data flowing into HubSpot or Salesforce automatically for marketing and sales.
  • They run conferences, summits, trade shows, or association and corporate events and want one platform for in-person, virtual, and hybrid.
  • They need to launch fast with a lean team and limited time to train seasonal staff.

Switching from Momentus to Accelevents

Moving registration to a new platform is mostly about three things: getting your data across, rebuilding your registration flows, and getting your team comfortable before your next on-sale date. Accelevents supports data import, offers onboarding and training, and provides live support (recognized by G2 with a Highest Quality of Support award). The most reliable approach is to map your current registration types and required fields first, then rebuild them in Accelevents and run a test event before going live.
