I am a Hopskip user on the agency owner side currently. We started to utilize it to deploy our RFPs for clients in Q2 2023. The system is so easy to use, built with planner input, and we have seen great results utilizing the platform. The reports and presentations that HopSkip creates have also cut out work hours for us.

I appreciate that as agencies/sourcing agents/planners, we pay to play, not the suppliers. This brings integrity to the system as well. I never want to pit competitors against each other, but I have utilized Cvent previously and would never switch back.

Planners pay for the service instead of hoteliers which means a level playing field, greater integrity and (one would assume) better qualified and more collaborative RFPs. Every lead I have sourced on HopSkip has gone to contract - except those still in the pipeline, of course.

The system is highly customizable, easy to use, and the customer service team is top-notch. It has saved me countless hours in searching and sourcing, not to mention tracking the status of proposals/contracts and analytics for comparing them. It truly is a game-changer!

I've been a HopSkip user for almost a year and my experience has been exceptional. The user-friendly journey, from exploring potential venues to receiving well-formatted proposals, is outstanding. The clarity of budgets, my favorite feature, simplifies my work significantly. I also appreciate the option to convert proposals into presentations for my stakeholders. HopSkip has effectively addressed common RFP issues, creating a seamless process. The team is extremely responsive and eager to receive client feedback for feasible improvements.

I have been with Hopskip from day 1.

Speaking as a third-party planner, we switched from Cvent to Hopskip and Hopskip gets it! The process on the planner side is far superior and it’s up to date. Every time I submit an RFP I am always pleased with how user-friendly, accurate, and easy it is to use. And in the rare chance I come across something that could be improved, I message the Hopskip team and it’s fixed promptly. I highly suggest working with them.

I find HopSkip to be quite an effective tool. HopSkip is much more user-friendly and allows the third party to have more control over how the RFP is created and control the narrative for the client. The platform also allows for greater communication with the properties sourced. HopSkip, in essence, serves as an extension of your team behind the scenes

We just wrapped our first year with HopSkip and LOVE HopSkip.

The amount of time we spend on our Sourcing has at least halved. Our favorite feature (which we haven't seen anywhere else) is the capability to download all hotel responses and proposals into a PowerPoint deck with your branding that you can send directly to the client (and the PP is editable). We just renewed for our second year and would highly recommend it!
