  • 1.  Rating Our Suppliers

    Posted 05-02-2025 11:21

    Good afternoon, everyone! 

    So, we have a rating system for consumers on AAA, Travelocity, Google etc. We don't currently have any way that's easy for us to share ratings of our venues and suppliers that we use. We rely on word of mouth. Does anyone know of a great place that already exists for us to do this? If not, would you find it helpful for something like this within the Cvent supplier network? We just had a horrible experience with a property, and we don't want to post it for consumers because it wouldn't affect them, but for other planners, it may be nice to know things to look out for from the venue and tips and tricks to working in that venue. 

    Thanks,

    Mike

    Hi Michael-

    There is a section in the Supplier Network that allows you to write a review for any contracted hotel. These reviews show up on the hotel page under the reviews section which I believe is at the bottom of the page. The other sections is you could add notes to the Venue in your account. I would use this in conjunction with the account tags feature. If you are looking for something else, you can use the Account Tags feature to maybe label the hotel as DO NOT USE or create a tag for each "rating" that you have. 

    The Account Tags can be created by following the instructions in this article: Using Supplier Categories

    If you want to mark the hotels or chains as preferred venues use the following article: Marking Preferred Venues and Brands

    Hope that helps!
