What Shoflo is for.
A web-based showflow tool for writing, sharing and calling cues, well known among production crews.
Where Shoflo is strong.
- Producers learn the spreadsheet-style interface in about ten minutes.
- Real-time collaboration between crew genuinely works under pressure.
- Strong export and print options, which matter more than people admit.
- Deep mindshare — a generation of show callers already know it.
Where its scope ends.
Not criticism — scope. These are the things it was not built to do, which matter only if you need them.
- It stops at the runsheet. There is no public programme, attendee view or speaker layer.
- The running order is authored in the tool rather than derived from a programme, so an agenda change is re-entered.
- Theming is minimal — runsheets look like Shoflo.
What EventBlok does differently.
- The cue list is a deeper view of the same programme the audience portal publishes, so a session move reaches both.
- Speaker preparation, locations and the prompter read the same record as the showflow.
- One workspace covers planning through delivery rather than the delivery half.
Which to choose.
Shoflo
- →Pick Shoflo if you only need a runsheet, your crew already know it, and the programme, speakers and public agenda are handled elsewhere.
EventBlok
- →Pick EventBlok if the same event has to be planned, published and run, and you would rather not re-enter the running order between those steps.
The same nine questions.
Last reviewed against both products.
Plan the event. Publish the programme. Run the show.
If EventBlok is the right fit, the launch benefit is the fastest way to find out. If it is not, we would rather you bought the right thing.
