Cons
Nothing is perfect in this world! Here are the cons:
1. Not Available for Android.
2. Requires a learning curve for non event professionals, as the app is packed with a lot of features.
Overall we recommend Diobox for anyone hosting an event – whether its a small dinner reception or a large conference. The benefits of using Diobox will become more clear after they are used in multiple events, as it tracks the history of each guest across events. This helps with reducing data fragmentation and makes the job of the event organizer much easier. Most impressively, Diobox does the work of 5 apps in a single comprehensive package.
