  • 1.  Flex and Classic

    Posted 09-03-2019 21:29
    Dear fellow C-Vent users,

    I read in some correspondence a while ago that CVENT Classic would be replaced by CVENT Flex - is this the case and - if it is, what is the timeline for CVENT Classic?

    with thanks

    Flex is replacing Classic eventually. I don't think the sunset date for classic is anything solidified at this point, as they are still working on getting many of the features that are available on classic added to flex, and the timelines for those are still fluid. They might have announced something I missed though.

    Kelly is correct that they haven't announced a date yet.  The one big challenge is that you can't duplicate a classic event into Flex.  I have tried to start creating my existing templates into Flex so I can start duplicating them going forward.

    Hi Alyson,

    Although there is no concrete sunset date, as timelines are always changing, you may find it useful to view our Features web page (see link below). This will display all the features that are currently in Classic and if/when they are available in Flex.

    Thanks!
