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

  • Trumba can do more than I ask it to, really. I’ve been using it since 2006, embedding it in a collection of classic car websites I manage, and it improves every year with new features. Once it’s set up on a site, the interface is so easy to use to add or modify events. I love that users can choose their calendar views, set up reminders, set up alerts to be told when an event is updated or changed, and forward the event to friend. I love that you can mark an event as cancelled — very useful to let users know this, rather than just delete it. I love the embedded maps, and the ability to add multiple links for both registration and firther online info about an event.
  • Trumba is fairly easy to navigate and has useful features for managing and organizing events. It keeps event information in one place, making it convenient to view and update details. The customization options are also helpful, especially for creating calendars that fit different needs.
  • Easy to use and navigate Great for organizing and managing events Makes it easy to share and publish event information Helpful calendar and scheduling features Reliable and saves time when managing multiple events
  • Since most of our events are similar, I like being able to duplicate them. I also like utilizing the RSVP feature.
  • •Great for syncing large volumes of event •Easy website embedding •Can be edited or managed by different departments •Handles all of the sign-ups, reminders, post-event emails. •Full data customization
  • I like that it is easy to link the map to show the exact property location. Entering dates and times are simple too.
  • Super easy to use. Many features that marketing can use. I love this platform- would highly recommend for calendar events.
  • I appreciated how easy it was to create a virtual event that I am hosting for my university. I was able to quickly input all of the information to make the event sound engaging and interesting.
  • -Easy to create, update, and publish events to our department's website. -Reliable platform that helps keep our online calendar accurate and up to date. -Flexible display and formatting options for different types of events. -Saves time by centralizing event management in one place. -Well suited for universities, organizations, and departments that manage frequent events.
  • The system is solid. I can't remember a time where the service was down, or when it behaved in a way that couldn't be explained by some user action. I don't want to understate the value of this. Stability is huge. So, please bear this in mind when reading nay critiques I may have.
