The Problem

Why people leave Wedibox

Here’s what users often struggle with before they make the switch from Wedibox.

Wedding-only positioning excludes corporate, classroom, gala, and conference use cases

Generic wedding-suite branding — seating is one of several features, not the focus

Limited room-scaling — tables float without exact venue dimensions

No real-time multi-user collaboration

Smaller feature depth around dietary, RSVP, and meal selection workflows

No professional planner tier with reusable venue templates

Frequently asked

SeatPlan.io vs Wedibox: common questions

Is SeatPlan.io free like Wedibox?
Yes — design free with no signup. Save and export costs £8/$8/€8 one-time for 90-day access. Wedibox is free for the seating feature within its broader wedding suite.
Can I use SeatPlan.io for non-wedding events?
Yes. SeatPlan.io's UI is event-neutral and works for corporate dinners, classrooms, galas, fundraisers, and conferences. Wedibox is wedding-only.
Does SeatPlan.io support real-time multi-user editing?
Yes — CRDT-based co-editing means multiple people edit the same chart at once with automatic conflict resolution. Wedibox does not match this.
What about dietary and meal tracking?
SeatPlan.io tracks RSVP status, dietary needs, accessibility notes, and meal selection per guest, with exports that drop straight into your caterer's email.

The verdict: SeatPlan.io vs Wedibox

Wedibox is a free, friendly wedding-suite for couples who want seating alongside other wedding utilities in one place. SeatPlan.io takes the opposite approach: pure seating depth across any event type, with real-time collaboration and a professional planner tier Wedibox doesn't offer.
