Easy to set up with great assistance from the IVvy team
I'm new to this App, but the set up of my venue was very easy thanks to the great assistance from the IVvy team. 10/10 for customer service!
CONSOne thing that could be improved is directing the user how to get more exposure on the Marketplace .

Flexible software and helpful staff.
Overall very positive. The people are great and the system offers a good level of customisation.
PROSI've been implementing iVvy at a new venue for hire. While we do not have any catering aspects to our operations, iVvy has the ability to be tailored to our needs. [SENSITIVE CONTENT] our trainer has been delightful to work with. Friendly, supportive and 'can do' at all stages of our training. We have found all other contacts at iVvy to be similarly knowledgeable and helpful. The reporting that iVvy produces is well considered and easily able to be tailored to our needs. Once built, the system gives a lot of control over to the venue in terms of updating finance reconciliations, tailoring reports, updating fees, adding additional items etc. Set up of virtually every aspect of iVvy can be tweaked to meet a venue's specific needs. I would definitely recommend iVvy to venues looking for an affordable, efficient and elegant bookings solution.
CONSIdeally there would be functionality to split out the items on an invoice for payment by more than one party - from separate companies. An example of where this would be required is in the case of a contribution subsidy by a sponsor.

System review
sustainability - less paper printing standardized event orders Great support from [SENSITIVE CONTENT] - he is my go to when needing assistance from iVvy support
PROSease of event orders and keeping all data in one location online.
CONSInvoicing system is a bit rigid. Template should be a bit more flexible. Part refunds capabilities can be improved. Should be able to make a refund without the system setting an amount as 'unpaid', which cannot be cleared.

Thank you for your honest and helpful review. iVvy will continue to improve our products with the feedback our customers provide.

Full function use
The ability to invoice from the system and accurately track all event and accommodation financials. Our prior event system didn't have this capability, and this has been a game changer for us!
CONSCorrecting spelling errors rather than just underline them in red. Having this prompt like a Word doc would be benefical and time saver

Happy long time user
iVvy has FANTASTIC customer support, always able to assist with short notice. Easy to navigate and easy to get the hang of relatively quickly. Can be utilised with lots of detail or used quite simply too. Integrating seven rooms, paylink etc has been a game changer for us and reduced so much double handling admin!
CONSA few minor things - tasks being associated to a booking, so when cancelling a quote these all cancel too. Being able to move a booking between venues (we have a 3-level building and if a booking wants to change venue we have to start again) - being able to add a custom note for the online enquiry when in busy time or closed for Christmas so customers don't think they're being ignored. Can sometimes be overwhelming with how much there is that could be used and learnt but thats not a bad thing!

Very user friendly!
Overall Ivvy is a great program to manage our events and we are very happy with the service!
PROSI find Ivvy to be very user friendly! Everything is easy to find and manage and it is very easy to quickly update your storefront and venue information.
CONSI would love a section on the Function Diary where you can add in important information such as public holidays, school holidays, promotions running etc. Information that is relevant to our venue that is important to know when quoting and checking availability.

Efficient and professional service
It's a one-stop solution for our event management end to end. From enquiry through to reporting, we can access all the information in one place. As we scale our business Ivvy will allow up to increase efficiency while maintaining a high level of communication in the team.
PROSFrom the initial consultation through to getting us onboarded, [sensitive content hidden] and [sensitive content hidden] have been impressively efficient in communicating every step of the way. [sensitive content hidden] was our initial point of contact and was very professional and clearly explained costs, processes and how Ivvy would fit in with our business framework. Through onboarding, [sensitive content hidden] was friendly and very helpful in getting the venue set up in the back end.
CONSNothing yet! We don't have dislikes at the moment it's all working well!

My Experience
iVvy has been a fantastic addition to our business. It has increased our professionalism throughout the whole event sales experience. It has allowed us to easily create documents such as contracts, event orders and invoices at the click of a button. The sales prompts and follow ups make it easy to ensure no enquires are forgotten. This has now become an invaluable tool we use on a daily basis. In addition the support of the onboarding team including [SENSITIVE CONTENT]was fantastic, we felt supported all the way!
CONSThere was no real cons. The set up team were great, we had some initial issues with the payment gateway, however that was rectified quick and believe it was more of our banks issue.

Using iVvy daily, it is easy for me to organise all the events. With online quotes coming through to the marketplace and promoting the business as well.
PROSiVvy is an easy to use program, from entering data is thorough from the initial quote through to finalizing the event. The regular training webinars are fantastic for new users, or even those just needing a few tips.
CONSSometimes, having to amend the documents can be tedious, having to manually correct information.

Ivvy for a major annual event - International Women's Day
The web site based system with integrated contact database was ideal for us. Responsive web pages were also good - overall, a functional tool for our needs. Had no problems with up-time or data loss, it just worked quickly and reliably
PROSIt does the job well but the key success factor has been that tel/email support is absolutely top-notch. Payment gateways and functionality are excellent. With volunteer users and our changes from year to year makes support a critical issue.
CONSHad problems with the table allocation module.
Reason for choosing iVvy Venue Management

Ivvy Venue Software
We have been very happy with the program and service we have received. Training with Melissa via GoToMeeting worked well and nearly every request we had has been satisfied. This program is certainly saving us time compared with our previous very manual system and paying monthly is preferable to a very large one off payment with continual upgrade costs.
