Afton Tickets is a value-add ticketing platform with real humans for support

Afton Tickets is amazing! I love that they provide us with ticket scanners and mobile hotspots so we don't have to coordinate getting internet to our site (or paying our venue a TON for internet usage). We know the scanners will work and it's a plug and play once they arrive; you really just have to practice a few times with your volunteers because it really is SO EASY to use! It's definitely sped up our check-in time which in turn has created a better attendee experience for us.

PROS

We love that Afton Tickets allows us to either pay them for their service or pass along as a small fee on each ticket; very similar to other ticketing providers but at a much lower cost AND you're getting so much value from them! We love that when we need help, it's quick and we can reach a human. We were assigned a dedicated account representative when we became a client and she's been nothing short of amazing! What's even better is they provide a contact tree, so if you ever can't get ahold of your rep (never has happened), you have options to reach a human in other ways!

CONS

I really don't have any complaints about Afton Tickets.

Reason for choosing Afton Tickets

Eventbrite was just too expensive for our purposes as a nonprofit.

Reasons for switching to Afton Tickets

About 2 years ago. We were disappointed in a plugin we purchased through WordPress to do ticketing and their lack of customer service when their product crashed, leaving us in a bad spot one week prior to one of our events. We've not had this problem since switching to Afton Tickets.

Event ticketing for nonprofits

Wonderful! Our team has been amazing and always responsive.

PROS

Katie is great. We have a time zone difference, but she is always responsive. Even when attending personal events or during her "off" time!

CONS

Reporting needs some work in my opinion. I want to be able to get more detailed information on ticket sales on a daily basis.

Reason for choosing Afton Tickets

Connections. The sales rep is originally from Aiken, SC. Where we are located.

All around great experience!

The software is so easy to use and integrate with, but the team at Afton are really great to work with. They take a partnership approach to the service and guidance they provide. They really help you to make sure your event is successful. We have no reason to look elsewhere for our future events. Many fans have given us very positive feedback about the quality of our shows.

PROS

Its almost effortless to set up an event and build ticketing options. Having the stream service + ticketing system all in one definitely saves time and effort. The things I like most are the self-service options for creating experiences for your audiences, such as adding pre-show content, chat options and integrating with our Shopify store. The tip jar features that allow different levels of viewer engagement was a great success to let our fans acknowledge and thank the amazing hard work from our tech and AV team members. And most importantly, the quality of the stream is second to none for the audience! And we have watched a lot of streamed events on many different platforms in the past 2 years. There are always technical or glitchy issues that impact your the watch experience. We've not experienced that with Afton.

CONS

It will be an even greater experiences and more convenient for our fans when Afton allows for multi-day event ticket bundling. And it would be nice to include images in ticket options. But, none of these things are a show stopper. The quality of their platform from a user and audience perspective are worth working around these things. Afton has done a great job taking in customer feedback and incorporating changes based on our needs.

Reason for choosing Afton Tickets

Initially we chose Afton for the ease and convenience to set up an event and their integrated ticketing system. Plus the promise of the reliability of their platform architecture. We chose to use Afton again because the technology lived up to their promise and we really enjoy working with them.

Excellent ticketing solution that includes options for other features

Excellent, their staff are great, responsive and even worked through some unique situations we wanted to try and made them happen. Couldn't have done that with our previous system.

PROS

Afton setup our account and after that the system was very easy to use! We'd been using another service provider to manage our sales for what I would have expected to be a lower fee but their equipment costs keep racking up. Afton includes all of that for you for your events deployment.

CONS

Honestly nothing, compared to our other system it was just much cleaner of a system across the board. The laser scanning was well worth it.

Reason for choosing Afton Tickets

It does the ticketing which everyone does and also more. It can assist with pre-sales of event concession tickets while tickets are being purchased, it can assist with early bird ticket sales... It's a whole package not just "tickets".

Reasons for switching to Afton Tickets

Square changed the online interface again and I was going to have to "learn" a new system. Might as well switch to one that would allow touchless laser scanning, and inventory control.

Makes your ticketing easy and customizable!

My experience has been a positive one and their customer assistance is great!

PROS

Afton allows events to get a excellent ticketing experience that’s custom to their needs at a fair price which is hard to find in the ticketing industry. They aren’t generic like most of the big online outlets. They took the suggestions that I had for my clients and made them a reality!

CONS

I don’t have a lot of cons. I guess the only one would be that it’s required to buy a special tickets if you want an event logo on the hard tickets. They do offer an option that’s a generic Afton ticket so it’s really not that big of a con.

Reason for choosing Afton Tickets

I liked how their are several options that you can choose from for your ticketing needs and that I can customize tickets with sponsor logos. Their fees are more competitive then the common alternative products

Best Customer service Ever!

Exceptional.

PROS

Afton is a great group of people to work with. I say people cause they are a one on one company. They keep in contact with you via email, phone or text. You choose how to interact with them. They reply to any questions you might have within a few hours or less. I got my own dedicated person [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] to help me with what ever I need. I don't have to go through 4 -5 people each time, I deal with [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] directly. Fantastic group.

CONS

I don't have any cons - The only thing I had a bit of an issue with was answering specifics on a few of the questions regarding my ticket listing. They are very thorough questions and I only had vague answers. That is where [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] came in. I just emailed her my problems and she helped me solve them so I'd get the right information to my ticket purchasers.

Reasons for switching to Afton Tickets

We wanted more personalized service. Eventbrite never contacted me before to even offer help.

A NECESSITY FOR CHEERpros

Our experience with Afton has been so great! The support from the Afton staff is incredible. They are always ready to help and quick to help to make sure that everything goes smoothly. The follow up is also something that I love. As a client, we never feel like we're just another client. There is constant communication. The system works well and we've only had a few times where we needed assistance on the day of an event. The Afton reps are quick to assist with whatever is needed to ensure a smooth event.

PROS

Afton tickets makes our admissions and ticketing system a smooth and cashless process for our events. It allows our staff to not have to worry about cash transactions on the day of the event.

CONS

We have not run into any issues with Afton that wasn't immediately handled for us. The customer service is top notch!

Excited to Continue our Partnership with Afton Tickets

Prior to working with Afton Tickets, our company used a variety of online ticketing platforms and while these other platforms got the job done. There was no personal touch, no equipment provided, and customer service was spotty. We were referred to Afton by one of our vendors and we are so happy we decided to make the switch. [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] have been a phenomenal help making the transition and they have both gone above and beyond our expectations. The platform in general is clean and easy to use, our event attendees have mentioned the ticket buying process being much easier. Overall, Afton tickets has helped us to deliver a more professional and personal ticketing experience for our guests and we are excited to continue our partnership on many more events in the future

PROS

When it comes to onsite ticket sales, the Afton system has cut our box office waiting times in half. The systems reliability, user friendly features, and cash handling/tracking has made running our events much smoother. With our specific event there are two checkpoints where a ticket needs to be scanned. Aftons handheld ticket system has made scanning and tracking tickets much easier compared to our old hole punching system.

CONS

Initially upon contracting, the customer facing ticketing pages lacked branding capabilities and other special features. However, these have all been upgraded throughout their website revamp.

Afton Tickets is our go to for our event ticket sales!

We get great customer service for our team and for our clients purchasing our event tickets. Afton treats you like family and always responds quickly.

PROS

I love the ease of use with the platform they created! I also love the team that Afton has working for them. Customer service is much better than other similar companies we have used. Our clients have reported that purchasing our event tickets is easy with Afton. Ease of use drives sales...Afton has it dialed in!

CONS

Because Afton listens to its clients and then delivers on a product you asked for...we have no dislikes. This is a fantastic company!

Would never use anyone else

Our experience with Afton has been been a great one, there are NO HIDDEN costs, what they tell you, you are paying and getting is exactly what you pay and get. They walked us through everything and never made us feel stupid for all the questions we asked. Their staff worked hand in hand with ours and never abandoned us.

PROS

The data we get from this software is amazing. The amount of work it has taken off our shoulders has been a huge relief to our staff. The price is really affordable especially to a company as small as ours

CONS

The only problem we ever had was a glitch in the ticket machine in our office kept turning off, as soon as we let them know it was fixed right away

Reason for choosing Afton Tickets

We choose Afton because they were willing to train everyone on their products without hidden costs, they walked us through the contract nice and slow and answered every question we had. It is not just buying into software when you work with Afton, it is a true partnership. They check on us all year not just when an event is coming up.

Best Ticketing at Lowest Fees

With Afton Tickets we can book our venues, sell our tickets, offer promo codes, and generate will call lists for box offices easily while on the road, all for a reasonable price.

PROS

Most ticketing companies charge customers 3-5 times as much fees per purchase, Afton doesn't. They keep fees for our customers low, all while offering incredible customer service to them, including event update correspondence based on the type of ticket, and answering their unique questions. The service fees to us are lower than competitors as well, which keeps us coming back.

CONS

They are constantly adding features to their system, like physical item add-on purchases offered to ticket customers. It would be great to see more customizable landing pages for tours in the future, and perhaps some web design support for those landing pages in house.

Afton Ticketing

We like the turnkey solutions, Afton has their own fully wired production and concert venues to use nationwide with their system. However, any of our venue promotions easily integrate with Afton's solution, and the fees are more than reasonable. Good deal overall, good value proposition.

PROS

A straightforward easy to use turnkey ticketing system, daily reports, easy integration with promoted acts to box office sales, ease in merged records; a helpful team to interface with platform integration to social media promotion and advertising. The assigned account representative paying attention to a presenter or promoter's events is pretty outstanding, very love-able in fact as few other platforms assign an individual rep to be your hands on pilot.

CONS

The "Brand-ability" of the white label solution can use one more tweak, and a link to preview video as provided is good. It just doesnt show the preview (yet) on the ticketing page; as compared to the entry for ticketed screening watch page. I understand this is being modified as a solution.

An event producers best friend!

I have the power and knowledge to know where my online advanced sales are coming from and how they are doing so that I can make educated decisions on how to improve.

PROS

The software is built with festival and event managers in mind. Easy to use on the front end for the customer, and a robust back end full of data and details. Super flexible - can change ticketing on the fly during an active event. Support is stellar.

CONS

Because it is so robust on the back end - I sometimes get lost in data - not sure that's all bad.

Afton makes concert ticket sales easier than you'd imagine

Very good. Afton helped us come away very well from our last tour.

PROS

It takes some rewiring your brain of how you THINK concert tickets have to be done, but once you understand afton's model it's a nice new idea to slide into and be comfortable with. They take care of most everything making my job as a tour manager very easy.

CONS

It just takes time to train your brain to think a new way. It takes venues time to learn this isn't like every other ticketing platform/booking agent.

Afton Tickets

Afton was so very helpful all the way around. They helped transition our events from in person sales to easy access online and mobile ticketing, which helped speed up the ticket entrance process. They provided quick and easy help for any questions throughout our events, and gave very helpful training before our events to help alleviate any and all anxiety associated with this new process. Afton is a great company to work with. They have put together a great team. Everyone we met with and spoke with from Afton was very knowledgeable and personable.

PROS

How easy it was to navigate through purchases at gate, and will call.

CONS

The batteries. Having to make sure there was an adequate power source because the hand held device didn't have enough power to last the day.
