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 & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • 24/7 Customer Support. You can have as much free event as you want without charged. Friendly Platform. Integrate very well with our website. Excellent Customer Service
  • Easy to set up ticket sales and manage guests. A complete suite to organize events that with seamless integration of various features.
  • Yapsody combines the best of two worlds very well: Price and Functionality. Not only can sell tickets the way that I want them, the pricing is the best on the market. What other companies sell as add-ons or enterprise-only features are standard with Yapsody. This tells me that Yapsody puts their customers first. Many of the features we were looking for, like customized tickets and reserved seating, came at highly marked-up costs. We also couldn't get any recognition as a nonprofit. Selling tickets was easy and checking them in at the event was quick and simple. We have received many comments from our guests that they really enjoyed our events and that the whole process was very professional. This was due in large part to Yapsody. On several occasions, we approached Yapsody's customer support for help in how to accomplish a particular vision using Yapsody. Every time we spoke with someone, we were provided with quick and valuable responses. While we weren't able to do everything we wanted, when something was available, we were given very clear guidance on how to do it.

Cons

  • I have none concerns with the website for the moment
  • There's no way to bundle max capacity of ticket tiers.
  • We were limited on being able to have "add-ons" to tickets. We wanted to allow our event-goers to add a donation to their ticket purchase, but this was not directly available. We had to create a workaround with a non-reserved seat that could be added to the shopping cart.
