About ThunderTix

Designed for the performing arts, ThunderTix provides reserved seating and general admission event management. Teams can combine fundraising, gift cards, merchandise, concessions, and a private CRM in one platform.

ThunderTix is a full-service ticketing solution that caters to the performing arts with options for reserved seating or general admission events. Teams can build out custom seating charts that enable patrons to select seats in real-time. ThunderTix enables event managers to decide between charging customers a ticketing fee and retaining that revenue or going fee-free. Ticket sales can be processed online, over the phone, or at the box office. Once guests have arrived, managers can either use the ThunderTix app or any preferred hardware to scan, un-scan, and sell tickets at the door.

The web-based platform enables venues to download nightly and accurate reports, helping clients to implement informed decisions about current or upcoming events. Managers can set up custom payment gateways to receive deposits nightly. Operators can create unique logins for staff, volunteers, or renters and restrict permissions for each user. The platform allows operators to change the pric...

e of tickets based on ticket type, seating section, or days out from the event using our dynamic ticket type. The solution lets stakeholders use custom styles or CSS to personalize the event website or embed events onto the website for a streamlined experience. ThunderTix enables administrators to utilize coupons, customer loyalty programs, season subscriptions, flex passes, or bundled events with discounted prices to promote sales. Supervisors can sell concessions or merchandise ahead of or at the show, target ticket buyers while cutting costs on outside services using our full, built-in customer relationship manager (CRM) and mass mailing features. IT professionals can use pixel tracking to analyze ad spending on a unified interface. Ticket buyers can handle refunds, seat exchanges, or convert tickets to a donation. The system lets stakeholders check on guests in a snap, thank customers for donations at the door, and see who scanned clients in. It enables team leaders to track sales and find out which staff members are at the top of the leaderboard. ThunderTix allows supervisors to follow up with attendees through automated emails and integrated surveys to find out what they want more of.

Reliable and easily adopted. Excellent customer service.

5

A previous ticketing system became unmanageable, hostile and even extortive. In a panic, I quickly surveyed replacements. ThunderTix quickly proved the best both as a product and in alignment with out organization's mission statement of regional support and being woman- owned. With meaningful but minimal help from the ThunderTix tech team, we converted over immediately with literally no down time. Setup was less than a week, probably 3 days max, and has worked perfectly for years.

Pros:
Setup was simple and maintenance has been trivial. The codebase had been refactored just before our adoption and the newer technology has proven flexible, extensible and reliable. Customer attention has been personal and consistent.
Cons:
The prices have been creeping up as they add features to compete up the market. While the features are solid and well crafted, many of them are beyond our needs but obviously necessary to be competitive and grow in the market.

ThunderTix is a MUST have

5

Adding ThunderTix to our theater program has been a game changer. In our first event series, we hit our maximum tickets sales ever. We also received amazing feedback from our guests about how easy it was to reserve tickets, not having to arrive super early to save seats, and that check-in at the front lobby was very smooth. I like the versatility of being able to scan tickets with your phone/devices or just have a laptop stationed in the lobby asking for the guests name. Either way is very straight-forward and allows you to check-in guests and get them to their seats much faster (or the concession stand!!)

Pros:
My two favorite things about ThunderTix is the ease of setting up an event and venue map. And the reporting features! Its very customizable and I can see just the data that I need during an event and even more during our post-event reporting.
Cons:
There is one screen that auto-scrolls up every time the page loads which is a little frustrating to an admin...but the customer doesn't see this page so its a minor issue.

Reasons for choosing ThunderTix

Pricing was the largest factor and the fact that equipment was not required to get started. Ease of use (the demo we saw was very exciting). Electronic payment platforms. Feature allowing customers to exchange tickets. And quicker response of ThunderTix staff.

ThunderTix was an easy critical upgrade at a crucial time

5

We had a service provider go insane on us, demanding unbelievable payments in an almost extortionate setting. I researched the options, limited by our resources, and determined they were many of the things that aligned with our company and its mission statement: Regionally based, woman owned, technologically current. The entire conversion took only a few days. We were up and running with them in less that a week and have NEVER missed a single event. They have PERSONALLY reached out to us multiple times for feedback, concerns, and ideas. We have not been unhappy about a single thing technologically or as a customer.

Pros:
It has been a very easy, extremely reliable tool that I can take completely for granted.
Cons:
The price is competitive, but they are being forced to follow market costs. While the features expand, the price has to. We have not had need of the more advanced features, but a more advanced company/user would definitely benefit from them immediately.

Thundertix is Awesome

5

I started at our organization as the Marketing Director; we had no website and were selling paper tickets. I had a great experience with Thundertix at a theater in Endicott, New York 16-18 years ago, so when I saw the need here, Thundertix was the best fit. I would highly recommend Thundertix for any size organization; so flexible and easy to use, and tech support is great. Thundertix is the best!

Pros:
Thundertix seems to anticipate what producers need before we know we need it. Shortcuts and streamlined operations make it so easy to sell, manage and report ticket transactions. Questions are answered quickly by Support, and requests for options are always taken into consideration - often already available.
Cons:
I can't think of anything at all. Thundertix is pretty great.

Vendor Response

As much as we'd like to take full credit for anticipating needs, I'll admit that the majority of our ideas come from clients just like you who share their desires and goals via our feature request forum or through simple discussions. We're indebted to all of you for helping us make ThunderTix the best platform for events. I'd like extend a personal thank you for rejoining ThunderTix after using us so long ago! If you were with us 18 years ago, then by golly, you were there at the very start of our existence. How far we've come together! Cheers to our next 18 years!

Pros:
I run a large, multi-day music festival. ThunderTix is great with every aspect of ticketing. I track orders easily, upgrade or exchange tickets easily, and can really help people because ThunderTix is easy to understand on my end. I am really appreciative of this system. I get offers to switch all the time, but I never will.
Cons:
There are no cons. At first I thought I would never be able to figure it all out, but over a short amount of time I'm fairly confident.

Vendor Response

Everything has a “flip side”. Right has left, up has down, and pros have cons. But you’ve yet to unearth a single con! Well, my friend, should you find one, please let us know so we can right that wrong! Thank you for your five star review!

My ThunderTix Review

5

Our organization has been selling tickets for nearly 18 years and during the first 17 we used software that was extremely affordable but didn't do everything we needed. When we moved to ThunderTix we undertook a greater expense it's true, but we also saw an accompanying increase in sales that we know has been largely fueled by our use of ThunderTix. To me it has been an expense that was worth the investment.

Pros:
There are several positives. But for the me the best is the ease of use for the patron. It is simple and intuitive. We moved to ThunderTix at the start of our 2024 Season and saw a huge uptick in ticket sales. There were many factors in this improvement, but it has to be said that one contributor was certainly our move to ThunderTix which made our reservation process so much simpler for our patrons.
Cons:
I wish I had the ability to obtain reports of an entire run of a production in a Performance Summary that compared each performance from one production in one document. That said, another great thing about ThunderTix is the ability to submit feature requests and they have always proven to be willing to accept requests to take a look at features that you request.

Vendor Response

Feature request noted, JaceSon! I would love to hear from you with more information about your idea, and we'll see if we can make it come to fruition. As for helping you grow, we're thrilled to hear it. We've always said, "We grow when our clients do!" You are one part of our overall tremendous growth, and we appreciate you right back!
