Pros & Cons from Real Users Pros Event Essentials has been my go-to event management company for over 5 years. Their reliable ticket purchasing software is flexible and updates easily. Ticket buyer data collection is valuable to support promotion, to send updates and alerts, and allows follow up on customer satisfaction. Staff responds quickly to emails and performs requests rapidly. Their “hands-on” participation makes one feel you have reliable partners. They continue to help raise the bar on event presentation with creative input that is customized to support our goals. I've had nothing but good experiences with Event Essentials and their software / service. They're on the forefront with this software and tech in general. Cons In over 5 years working with Event Essentials, I have never been disappointed in their services. I had a good experience and don't have any complaints.		Pros from Real Users Pros As an integration partner: - Pagenation - Email and SMS API Endpoints - Great cooperation with our Developer Team Tons of functionality and customization options. Really well designed API's that enable for some powerful integration possibilities. Overall a really well thought out ticketing product that is straightforward but gives event hosts as much flexibility as they need. Customer service and help desk is extremely responsive and easy to work with. They go above and beyond to make sure everything is done correctly. User-friendly for customers, extensive data reporting (including tracking links!), customer support is unmatched, sending complimentary tickets as well as checking in attendees is a breeze... the list goes on! Love the customization abilities and multiple options of selling tickets whether it is a one time event or reoccurring, general seating or select seating, large or small intimate venue. TicketSauce does not disappoint. The customer service is a 10 out of 10. It does not matter how good a system if you cannot reach support when you need it. Very user friendly and amazing customer service. This platform will allow our brand to grow and sell an Exponential amount of tickets. Incredibly professional team that we have been working with for a number of years and our go-to for all of our ticketing needs! We appreciate their commitment to their clients and next-level communication with us during our events. We attribute a lot of our success to a highly functional ticketing platform, and TS provides that. Registering for activities is an awesome feature that the majority of ticket software do not offer. Check-in/check-out has been a great option to have at our event. The staff I have worked with have been very attentive and helpful. My experience has been great with Ticketsauce overall. I can easily sell tickets and manage my events and clients. Anytime I need help with anything, they respond quickly. Also, they genuinely listen to their clients and make regular, helpful updates. Customization Ease of Setup The App Low Fees Great Support Website integration Marketing Integrations
