Eventbrite Software

Pros

Great way to get marketing for an event. Pretty easy to set up an account. I like the fact you can add more than 1 person on an account.

Cons

We were not expecting to have to pay eventbrite for creating an account. This was a surprise however we still will use the system

Pros

This in genius software allows event planners to leverage on technology for total management of invites and attendee data and analytics. Very easy to use.

Cons

Security concerns as to security of the data generated. Basic design. Slow rate of adoption buy event planners. Has not reached its full potential

Pros

Eventbrite is simple, intuitive, and makes event-planning incredibly easy. This application allows you to create both free and paid-events. If you are enrolled in a subscription for a paid-event, you can choose to opt-out at any time with no additional fees attached, etc. Because of the increase in visibility, this application provides, we have received more registrants for our events through organic traffic (more than often our registrants come from direct traffic or referrals). Eventbrite also captures various analytics on your events (that can be viewed within the applications dashboard or easily exported) that help you analyze and understand your audience, where your traffic is coming from, and keep track of sales, etc. One of its best features is the availability to access details and analytics on your event at any time, from any advice, so you can save on time and focus on other important matters.

Cons

The free version does not provide you with the option to ask registrants questions when they are in the process of purchasing their tickets. The ability to ask questions was beneficial to our company because it helped us gage our registrants’ level of experience and/or areas of interest, to better understand how to engage with them during events, etc.

Easy to find local events.

Pros

I like that there's plenty of local events to choose from on EventBrite and it doesn't charge "convenience fees" for buying tickets like TicketMaster does.

Cons

I think sometimes local event organizers do forget it exists, but that's about it. If you're organizing an event, don't forget to put it on EventBrite even if it's a free event!

Easy way to sign attendees up for an event and track them the numbers for preparation purposes as well!

Pros

The ease of Use of the platform and seamless integration into my calendars. A really great application that should be utilized more often by businesses.

Cons

There is really not much to not like about the application, but I think that users can do a better job of event description and dating when using it.

Pros

Simple and clean cut to use. Setting up a new corporate account to organize events is very easy and email campaigns can be easily organized. Attendance tracking is also very simple and a mobile app is definitely the smart way. Export of data is also simple.

Cons

Offers no further follow up from the event. Will be good to be able to have a survey after the event to rate users based on their satisfaction levels. Also, data analytics is fundamental, not able to track user profile and categories users.

Fast and easy. Can't beat it.

Pros

I like the fact that it actually calls the customer's attention because they know it is quick and easy to use.

Cons

There is nothing that I don't like. I have used it may times and I am very happy with it. I have not considered any other software for this purpose.

Pros

Eventbrite is a free/low cost solution to event promotion and management. It has a ton of great features like Facebook event integration and mailchimp integration that are easy to use.

Cons

Tough one... I have had such a good experience using Eventbrite. Perhaps the only negative is that when integrating with a free Facebook event there is no way to change the name of the button from "Purchase Tickets" which created confusion. I wish we could have used RSVP or something similar.

Pros

the app is so helpful for eventbrite. It allows you to quickly get your tickets, the search function is fantastic, and it gives you recommendations of events near me. very quick and easy to RSVP

Cons

I have never organized an event with Eventbrite app because my company doesn't use it, but as a user, I don't have any cons.

Pros

Eventbrite is very user friendly and have a lot of features for what I needed to use it for. The application is very easy to manuever around. There were additional features that I would have liked to use, but it was not available for my level of subscription.

Cons

Eventbrite didn't have all the features I thought it should have for the lower level user. It's pretty straight forward so I was able to make it work for what I needed.

Easy to search events, buy tickets, and reserve a place or register for events.

Pros

It's easy to use! I've used EventBrite mostly to register for events and buy tickets. It's great getting a reminder email about an event and all I have to do is click a button to reserve or buy a ticket. It's also a great resource to search for events whether its a fitness event or a concert and, of course, people can buy tickets straight from the site. I have yet to use it for distributing my own event tickets, but definitely will when i get the opportunity.

Cons

The site can be a bit busy and their recommended events for my area do not look like anything I'd be interested in going to . . .at all.

Pros

- Easy to use and get started
- Integrates with many other platforms (for me most important is HubSpot)
- Easy to export data and customize fields
- Great email reporting and post-event recaps

Cons

- Limited features in the free plan, must upgrade and pay to get access to some very useful features. Other than that highly recommend it for basic event hosting needs.

Pros

I've used this software for buying tickets and registering for running events, its perfectly simple and I love that you can see other events in your area.

Cons

I don't have any complaints about Eventbrite, always functions exactly how I need it to. There are booking fees but that's true of all ticket sites

Pros

Planning an event?? Then you definitely need this!! It's a great way to reach out to contacts with details of an event including the location, cost, directions, time, dress code, etc. Once you send out the details, it tracks your RSVPs, sends confirmations to guests to accept and additionally send reminders out prior to the event! It really helps make the event process less hectic and it's also nice to know that everything is one place for you to access.

Cons

The first time you set it up and send it out, you might miss a few of the features. I'd suggest seeing how others have done and it then replicating their process. Overall, it's an easy-to tool and hard to mess up!

Looks great and trustworthy

Pros

High quality and well designed. A great third party tool for events that require a higher level of brand image without having to invest a lot in a proprietary system.

Cons

It can get expensive as the size of your event grows, so it requires some research. There isn't much flexibility built into the pricing model.

It is an easy way to organize an event and purchase tickets, manage registrations, etc.

Pros

The website is easy to use on all platforms and devices. The interface there is plain, but appealing to use.

Cons

It does not store your information, so you have to refill in everything when you register for another event.

Pros

I like most that at anytime I can look up events around me, whether I am at home or out of town. It keeps me in the know of current things to do.

Cons

The only thing I don't like about Eventbrite it that it won't show you all the events in your area, just some.

Finding races I wouldn't have heard of otherwise and being able to store my tickets in one consolidated place.

Pros

The software interface for the user if very clear and easy to navigate. It's on-point when you search for events near you and you receive relevant options from your search with plenty of choices. I also love that it offers one place to keep your tickets, instead of downloading them to your computer and having to frantically search for them again just before the event!

Cons

The booking fees to use the software can be quite steep. I've found fees to be around $5 per event which can really add up!

Pros

You can post pictures and links for people to view and you receive notification emails when an event ticket is purchased to keep informed on the number of attendees.

Cons

When going to the Eventbrite's website it's so many posted advertised events, I get lost trying to find what I'm specifically looking for.

Although I create event on FB, Eventbrite is a trusted site to collect payments.

Pros

I love the fact that I can just about any event I'm looking for as well as plan my own events and keep count of who is attending. I also love the fact that I can payout my money to PayPal instead of waiting until the event ends.

Cons

There is nothing I least like about EventBrite. Eventbrite is the only software I use to create online events.
