Tourient: a TourStop Alternative
TourStop is a self guided tours platform with basic features and a high price, while Tourient is an affordably-priced tour builder for organizations telling complex stories to diverse audiences.
Tourient doesn't limit how many tours and stops you can create, or the number of visitors you can have. TourStop limits you to one tour, 15 stops, and 1000 visitors.
Share your stories with diverse audiences in up to 64 languages. Offer screen reader support, keyboard navigation, contrast settings, and more.
Tourient includes a QR code generator and exhibit label tool, while TourStop supports QR code scanning but makes you manage that yourself.
TourStop doesn't even include custom branding, while Tourient lets you theme every tour with colors and fonts in addition to adding your logo and brand color.
Track the basics, but also track QR code scans, sponsor clicks, poll usage, and other metrics that matter to your stakeholders.
“We strive to share the diverse stories of the people of McLean County, and we want people to be able to access those stories regardless of language barriers.” —Micaela Harris, Communications Director
Tourient has no limits on how many tours or stops you create, nor are there limits on visitors, physical locations, and admin users for their Tour Builder CMS. TourStop, on the other hand, limits you to one tour with 15 stops, and just 1000 visitors.
TourStop is English-only, while Tourient supports 64 languages (including RTL). Tourient also meets WCAG Level AA accessibility standards, which are a legal requirement in many regions. TourStop does not meet even the lowest level of WCAG standards.
TourStop supports QR code scanning, but it doesn't generate the QR codes for you or track their scans in its analytics. Tourient does, and it includes other marketing tools to simplify tour promotion.
TourStop includes a ChatGPT integration that will write your tour text for you, while Tourient's focus on human-created content and quality tours means that it does not include AI text generation.
TourStop offers phone and email-based customer support, while Tourient offers email and chat-based support.
TourStop is a veteran-owned business, while Tourient is not.
