Overview

Meetingmax is a cloud-based event-housing and hotel room-block management company serving meeting planners, event holders, associations, convention and visitor bureaus, and other organizations coordinating group accommodation. Its platform supports hotel inventory contracting, attendee reservations, sub-blocks, rooming lists, payments, reporting, and commission tracking.

The company is notable for originating as an event-production operation and turning an internally developed housing system into a licensed software business. It is positioned as a specialized event-housing platform rather than a general event-management suite, with particular relevance to multi-hotel conferences and large group bookings.

History

Meetingmax began in the early 2000s as an event production company. It developed proprietary event-housing software to manage hotel bookings for its own clients. Event organizers and tourism bureaus subsequently requested access to the software, leading to a pivot toward licensing it as a standalone hotel-reservation platform. The company is reported as founded in 2002, although the supplied company profile lists 2004.

Reputation

Meetingmax is generally viewed positively by event-housing users, with software directories reporting ratings around 4.7 out of 5 from dozens of reviews. Users commonly cite organized administration, a usable attendee-facing experience, and strong control over complex room blocks. Reviews and industry comparisons also indicate that its specialized feature set is better suited to larger or operationally complex events, while its usage-based pricing and reported starting cost may be less economical for smaller events. LinkedIn describes the company as privately held with approximately 11–50 employees and headquartered in Vancouver.
