Average hotel response rate
Six things you get on Hopskip that the legacy event suites simply weren't designed to deliver.

Sourcing-only focus, better results
Not a registration tool. Not a virtual event platform. Just hotel sourcing, done better than anyone else. Experience an 87% hotel response rate (compared to the industry average of 30%).

Automated, branded presentation & reports
Turn hotel proposals into polished, client-ready landing pages, PowerPoint presentations, or Excel reports in one click. The legacy suites don't do this.

Search results you can trust. No paid placements, no hidden agendas. Just the hotels that actually fit your event.
Transparent pricing that works for you

Cvent doesn't generate branded, client-ready PowerPoint presentations from proposals. Hopskip does — every comparison can become a stakeholder-ready deck in one click, saving 10+ hours per event on formatting.
On room block budgets
Cvent offers budget management as part of their enterprise suite — add-on, complex setup. Hopskip gives planners native room block cost visibility right inside the proposal comparison, with no separate module and no configuration.

Yes. Hopskip's migration team pulls your historical RFPs, hotel contacts, contracted rates, and proposal archives directly from your current platform.

Custom fields are supported, duplicates get cleaned up, and your audit trail is preserved. Need something specific? Just ask.
Will I lose my history?
Not a thing. When you switch to Hopskip, you can bring your historical data with you — past RFPs, contracted rates, prior wins, repeat hotels.

Is there a contract minimum?
No. Hopskip doesn't require a minimum group size, room block, or spend to submit an RFP. Source what you need, when you need it.
