Try it on your own event
When Eventocam is the better choice
Eventocam has real advantages for playful and Spanish-speaking events.
The free allowance is larger and split by media
Free lists 25 photos, 5 videos and 2 voice messages, compared with Gathmo’s 20 total items. The Eventocam free gallery is watermarked and cannot download, but it is still the larger capture allowance.
Gold turns photo collection into a game
Gold includes up to 20 custom challenges and a winner podium. Gathmo offers no challenges, so Eventocam is the better choice when that activity is central.
4 practical reasons to choose Gathmo
A clearer free archive
The 20-item free event stays available for 30 days under one published rule.
Eventocam Free cannot download media and adds a watermark.
German setup
The comparison, event setup and support journey can be followed in German.
Eventocam’s public product site has Spanish and English, but no German version was found.
Approval before the screen
Paid plans can hold every item for approval before it reaches the live wall.
Eventocam does not list moderation outside Gold.
Retention you can plan around
Gathmo publishes 30, 90, 183 and 365 days in one product source.
Eventocam’s official price and help pages do not agree on Free, Bronze or Gold retention.
Gathmo publishes this comparison and Gathmo is our product. Eventocam facts were checked on official Spanish and English pages on 30 August 2026. Trustpilot showed 3.8/5 from 3 reviews; that sample is too small for a broad quality claim. Eventocam and readers can report an error or anything out of date through Gathmo’s contact page. Verify live prices and retention before buying.

Moving from Eventocam to Gathmo

Test a free Gathmo event
