How we compared: every answer comes from each company’s own website and app store listings, checked in November 2026.
Where each app stops
Popl
Popl quotes its price over a meeting, so your team starts with a demo. Covve posts its prices, so you can start scanning today.
HiHello
HiHello’s app can’t scan a paper card without a connection. Covve keeps scanning offline and warns you about a weak signal before a scan is lost.
CamCard
CamCard’s team trial starts with a pricing request form. Covve’s 14-day trial starts the moment you choose an annual plan, and Pro scans event badges too.
ABBYY
ABBYY Business Card Reader is iPhone only: its Android app was discontinued in 2023. Covve runs on iPhone and Android and keeps every contact in sync.
Cvent
Cvent LeadCapture works at events run on Cvent, with an access code from the organizer. Covve works at every show you attend, and you set it up yourself.
iCapture
iCapture needs a subscription, and its pricing starts with a quote request. Covve’s plans are on the pricing page, and you can start today.
hapily
hapily is built for HubSpot, and every lead scan uses a credit. Covve scans unlimited cards and QR codes on every plan and connects to five CRMs.
Mobly
Mobly has no pricing page: you start with a demo and a flat annual contract. Covve shows its price up front, and you can pay monthly or yearly.
Romify
Romify starts with a demo or a quote form, and your organization needs a subscription before the app captures a lead. With Covve, you choose a plan and scan the same day.
