The short version

  • Only Tito has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Planning Pod subscription pricing is metered by concurrent event volume rather than seats: the vendor states "Subscription pricing is based on the number of events your venue manages at any given time" and that "most single-location venues land between $199 and $319 per month."; Tito limited to smaller and mid-sized events, less suitable for enterprise-scale conferences
  • They diverge on capability: Planning Pod covers Lead management, Tito covers Ticketing.
