You need SaffireTix!
There is never a bad experience with SaffireTix. Saffire is always super helpful and hands on when you need them.
Pros
The best thing about the SaffireTix software is how easy it was to implement with our Saffire website.
Cons
The only downside to SaffireTix is we operate an outdated facility with a lot of people coming at once, so we some times lack the connectivity to operate the software to its potential.
Reasons for Choosing SaffireTix
We have worked with the Saffire team for years and were happy to expand into new products with them.
Reasons for Switching to SaffireTix
We wanted to go with a simpler outlet for our customers.

Amazing support team
It is a great ticketing platform and they have an amazing team ready to help with any aspect of the ticketing.
Pros
The software is user friendly and has lots of great tutorials. The layout is easy to use and follow. SaffireTix also personalizes the page to look just like your website.
Cons
It takes time to work through the tutorials, but it is well worth it and they are always there as a resource.
Reasons for Choosing SaffireTix
The costs are similar across the products out there, but team at SaffireTix is very personal, the relationship was the canoe tipper.

Mobile Responsiveness and Transparency
Everyone is very quick to respond to inquiries, provide detailed insight and solutions for addressing any issues, comments, or concerns and for the most part, the layout of everything is fairly user-friendly. Your team is very approachable and I appreciate all that they do! Notes that did not fit above: It does seem inconsistent in the process of updating dates of events year to year, some events allow me to adjust the date in the quick edit portion others I have to go into the page and edit the item on the page. Now that I know I need to edit the item on the page to get the date to appear appropriately that is not an issue, but that took over a year to figure out. I am guessing there are some people that simply unlist the event and build it all over again. I would also suggest figuring out a better color code system/naming when it comes to unlisted events and removing products from page (i.e. for unlisted events the block goes grey but still says "listed" I believe it should be grayed out and state "unlisted" / when it comes to removing a product from a particular page it may be less scary to a user to replace that terminology with "remove" versus the current "deactivate" which makes it seem like you are deactivating the entire product from the entire website.
Pros
I like the ability to dive into the backend of the fair's website to make edits quickly without relying/waiting on someone else. I am able to make the changes I need, when I need and they are immediately made/seen on the live site.
Cons
The lack of mobile responsiveness and the lack of transparency in convenience fees to the customer. I would like to see the ecommerce portion of the site flow smoother from a mobile responsive standpoint and would love to see the convenience fee/etc pulled up into the main blue portion of the checkout where the customer sees the products they are purchasing. Our number one complaint regards the convenience fees, with half complaining about the fees themselves and the other half claiming we "snuck" them in/weren't honest with the fees (we do have disclaimers all over the website, social media and email communcation).

Opinions Are Like...
No problems other than the COVID-19 pandemic shutting down our operation and the uncertainty if we will be even able to use SaffireTix this year.
Pros
Being able to handle nearly all aspects ourselves
Cons
I feel like many fields to enter data could use a description of what the field is meant for and that the "steps" to take could be outlined in a more structured / uniform way.

Reliability, ease of operation and more control over product building

Saffire Paves the Way for Success!
Saffire is more than a company offering website and ticketing, they are a partner along side you every step of the way. Their team of industry experts make the challenges of the high-stress fair/festival/entertainment world offer an operation beyond compare, making you feel at ease all the way through the process. They are detailed in their approach, innovative in their design, and continue to find ways for their clients to grow in success! Combining an awesome design team & additional marketing partner - the team at Saffire are always working to stay fresh and innovative! For us, there is no looking back. We are #TeamSaffire all the way and are so grateful for their continued partnership and development.
Pros
Being in the Fair/festival/entertainment business we are always looking for efficient, robust systems with opportunities to grow - the Spark platform created by Saffire offers this plus so much more! The program is individualized for each client/company. It is laid out in such a way that anyone can use it and if you're unable to figure something out, their team of support professionals is beyond compare! They offer top notch service exceeding expectations and in the end you know more than you ever thought you would about the ease and inner workings of the program. Another great feature is that YOU can customize your website, ticketing platform, and tickets how YOU and YOUR company choose. System integration is incredibly simple with emphasis towards making your business a success. The SaffireU offers 24/7 answers to questions and continues to teach you how to work through incorporating new things into your already exceptional website, ticketing page, or ticket/ticket package. Once the design is set, you are able to see your adapted site, ticketing page, or tickets live and in real time. There is no middle man or having to wait for someone else to get back to you - the capabilities are accessible, adaptable, and right at your fingertips! Aside from this, the analytics, reporting, and overall development is constantly evolving for the benefit of YOU as the client/partner in it all. Reporting is real-time as well...no downtime or having to wait for results. Just exceptional!
Cons
Saffire is constantly adapting and at-times, with items/platform pieces even beyond our Fair/festival needs. So in some ways, their development/system is even more robust than necessary for our daily operations. Aside from that, they continue to adapt, so when we had hopes for integrating multiple print tickets for a single "product" in their system, they assured us they would add this to their "wish" list of developments. As they continue to say, if you are looking for the integration, we have no doubts that our other clients/partners are too! They make a team effort to listen to their clients/partners with intent, advance, and continue to develop - couldn't ask for anything more!

An amazing product
The BEST part of the Saffire is the people. They are absolutely wonderful. I have enjoyed working with all of them. We look forward to continuing to use the program for years in the future.
Pros
One of the biggest benefits drew us to the website was the ability to have a great customer end user experience. Our festival sells a lot of concert tickets and it was very beneficial to not have the customer leave the site. I have found that the back end is easy to use. If we have suggestions for the ticket software, they are listened to and sometimes add to the workflow. It is has been very easy to the scan features, and box office works great. Even though we didn't get use the new updates this year, we think they would have been AMAZING!
Cons
I'd still like some additional reporting options and/or the ability to query specific reports.
Reasons for Switching to SaffireTix
The ability to keep customers on our website, the working relationships with the Saffire and the room the software has to grow with the changing needs of the industry.

Website and Ticket Sales Integration is the best choice for Fairgrounds
Saffire gave us the ability to develop a beautiful and professional website and world class ticketing system without a dedicated IT person on staff. We have a dedicated coach at Saffire that has become a good friend. He is always available to help. Sometimes he just reaches out to check and see how we are doing. We are very happy that we chose Saffire!
Pros
We chose Saffire to develop our website and our ticket sales systems because of their extensive experience in our industry. It turned out to be an excellent choice! They helped us in many ways that we could not have imagined on our own. The "Spark" management software makes it easy to manage your website and ticket sales in one integrated platform. The reporting and research tools are outstanding! They have a robust training platform you can do at your own pace and I like the fact that it's always accessible if you need to review something again later. Customer service is excellent and is always just a click away on any screen in the system.
Cons
The worst thing about Saffire is also one of the best things about Saffire. You have so many options and so much control that the learning curve can be pretty steep at the beginning. It gives you the ability to spend as much time as you like depending on how extensive you want your website to be.
Reasons for Switching to SaffireTix
We needed a better website and we wanted a ticketing system that gave us more control over the process. Saffire solved both problems and they have worked with hundreds of other fairgrounds so it was really a pretty easy choice for us.

SaffireTix is the Best!
SaffireTix is a great tool, especially for those in the event business. It is easy to navigate, the staff is always willing to help, and during events it keeps things fast and simple. I would recommend SaffireTix to anyone who is need of a great ticket sales program.
Pros
Recently with the pandemic, events have been canceled and re-scheduled, which creates a need for refunds. Saffire makes it simple when issuing refunds and being able to confirm it with the customer. It has made my life easier, especially when working from home. If there is an issue with a customer's order, they can't find their tickets, they aren't sure if they deleted their emails, etc. I can look up their orders with ease. I can email them their tickets with just a few clicks and the customer is satisfied and has all of their order information located in one email. There are so many features from Saffire that have been helpful when hosting events. I started working for my company in January and Saffire is so simplistic in learning how to use it. Their staff is always standing by to help and answer any questions you may have.
Cons
Issuing refunds to customers is something that no one wants to do. Saffire makes it easy to do so, but once you cancel the order, you can't pull up their receipt and look at their order once you have issued the refund. Sometimes there is something the customer needs and we like to be able to go back and look at the order and we are unable to view the whole receipt.

Good people to have on your team!
In the events industry, you GET to be a customer service guru. You GET to answer a number of different questions. You GET to work with a number of different people, groups, organizations, businesses. The fact that we don't get a number of questions regarding our ticket sales, is GOLD. The platform works. Working with Saffire is like having another member in your office who handles all of that side of the job. Big fan over in WA. ( I stole that from [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN].)
Pros
Not only is it user friendly for our guests, it is completely user friendly for us on the back end. SPARK sparkles for all of us here. We need to change a date, or some verbiage: SPARK. Done. If we run into something we aren't sure about, the entire Team at Saffire is willing to help us out too, but we do love our coach. It's something that is a little bit more difficult: Yo, [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN]! Done.
Cons
There has been ONE limitation. We wanted to sell tickets in a grouping type of a scenario: 2 for $198, but we couldn't choose two seats with one ticket purchase. Seriously, not a big deal, we just sold them for $99. So, why am I even mentioning this...?

It keeps getting better!
Pros
This software is great. Saffire makes it easy to understand and operate. If you can't figure something out they go above and beyond to help. We produce over 90+ rodeos a year and their ticketing is perfect for what we do. Not only do their systems make getting patrons through the gate a breeze, their reporting is outstanding for keeping accurate books.
Cons
The only thing I could see changing is the ease of editing certain things such a editing pictures on my website. They have however taken steps to address these problems.

Saffire Receommendation
I have been able to create very informative reports on attendees by time of day and what type of ticket used. The ability to have data at this level has been very helpful.
Pros
The online learnings were quick and targeted. Sometimes I think it is too easy that I must have missed something. The whole Saffire team is great to work with, they welcome any questions. Informs you of choices to make reporting easier.
Cons
Saffire continues to improve as they listen to their Customers on how they use the software.

The Saffire team was very personable and took the time to listen to what we were looking for and understanding our needs and desires.

Saffire is a true Gem!
Working with the Saffire Team is a joy. They understand our business and the demands we are under during Fair time. They calmly and with good humor talk you through any issues - like the time I entered the wrong end time on ticket sales during a FLASH SALE. Their remote support is quick to respond and their event (in person) support is professional and fun at the same time. Saffire folks are part of our team. They care about our success.
Pros
Ease of Use, Excellent on-demand reporting, Nimble, Accurate
Cons
Saffire operates on a continuous improvement model -they come up with new features all the time to make operations easier.

Game-Changer for Large Events and Venues!
Year after year the Saffire Team is innovating new ways to make my life easier. There's a lot of stress with putting on large events but knowing I have a reliable program with an excellent support team on-call, makes ticketing is one piece I don't need to stress about. The "Box Office" was a game changer for my superiors since I am able to run a report and reconcile that against our cash boxes after each event. Box Office also is very easy for my volunteers/employees to run. Overall, I would recommend Saffire to anyone.
Pros
I love how user friendly the setup is. If you have time to go through the videos and self-teach the opportunities are endless. If you don't have time or you're just unsure on something, the support team and our main contact [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] are extremely easy to get a hold of and will get you all set up ASAP. They also get problems fixed quickly which is a huge stress reliever when you are on the receiving end of customers due to "technical issues".
Cons
It is a large expense, but if you have the ability to invest in your business, you won't be disappointed in this product.
Reasons for Choosing SaffireTix
From what I heard, the manager met the Saffire Team at Fair Convention and she was hooked. We did not have a website or any online ticketing platform before that. We just used homemade paper tickets and tracked sales manually.

Life Saver
Can't say enough good things. They are easy to reach, fast to help and it has elevated our business. A big reason we've gone from relative obscurity to tops in the business is because of Saffire.
Pros
It's very easy to use. With a film festival, we have a relatively large volunteer staff that changes from year to year. It's never an issue to get people trained and ready to use the software.
Cons
Never had an issue with the software. Nothing negative to say.

Just loved the user friendly, ease of use combined with an excellent culture of customer support.

Efficient, Functional, Great
We were already using Saffire for our website so integrating the ticketing system just made sense. The team is extremely easy to work with and very helpful in solving problems. Overall, we've had a great experience with SaffireTix.
Pros
The software is very user friendly and the staff is extremely efficient and helpful when you do run into a problem.
Cons
The ability to provide different codes for each item sold in one package. It was confusing to our guests. Also, the ability to do partial refunds to avoid frustration for our guests.

Very good. Could be great.
Pros
I like the varying customization options for the website's pages.
Cons
The calendar feature for events is extremely difficult to use when inserting a lot of dates. It takes 12-14 clicks per individual date. When you're inserting 80 dates for an event, that's a lot of clicking. There are a number of bugs when formatting text on pages. You change the text and the change doesn't take effect, etc.

Saffire Review
AMAZING!
Pros
I like that it was easy to use and learn, the customer service is top-notch (I feel they are apart of my family :)), and it's easy to update and change everything from an event, an image, and if there's ever an issue- I can get someone to help very quickly.
Cons
I wish that there was an image library to use.

Great product and value
We have honestly not had a single issue with the software. Being that we are in a rural area, our internet has often given us trouble, but Saffire seems to always be available with a back up plan!
Pros
Since we were already Saffire clients, SaffireTix was very easy to implement into our existing web site software. Being that we only use the ticketing software during our Fair, there seems to be a learning curve each year for our office. Saffire support is amazing!!
Cons
The reports generated sometimes don't have the information my board members want to see.
Reasons for Choosing SaffireTix
Our organization already had a relationship with Saffire through our website. We were happy with their customer support and felt confident in their ability to get us up and running for ticketing.

Refreshingly Simple
pretty satisfied with Saffire tix, we haven’t used it enough to say for sure.
Pros
The ease of building a landing page quickly with the modular tools makes building or adding to our site simple for all of our staff members no matter their skill level.
Cons
I’d love to see a clickable phone link from each page so people using mobile can call directly to each business. Also the allocations file is challenging and slows me down when trying to add events with an existing location because I have to search the address file.

Pick a Partner
I like the company representative attending our event to get us up to speed in using the system since we are an annual event.
Pros
Saffire Tix is a company that understands the entire process and who is invested in the success of the event. They help with the promotion and the ease of use by the consumer. Saffire provides good recommendations and adjusts to any situation.
Cons
I don't have anything specific, I just need to work with the software more often to provide the reports that I need. Currently the credit card company isn't on the same schedule as the ticket sales, so the ease of financial reports, deposits doesn't match.

Great team to work with!
The staff at Saffire is very easy to work with and knowledgeable. They are quick to answer any questions.
Pros
The system is easy to use and easy to integrate with our website. As a facility that holds events, it was easy to setup new users allowing them to sell tickets for their events through our website. The training videos also allowed me to just get the new users setup and direct them to the videos to get started so little additional time was required of me to train. Plus, Saffire worked directly with the new users if they had any questions.
Cons
We experienced some internet connectivity issues so our original plan of scanning tickets live was interrupted and took a little bit to switch over to scanning with no internet.

Fast & Easy for Client & Customer
Our experience with SaffireTix has been incredibly positive. They want to do everything they can to help ensure our ticket sales are successful, and exceed our goals and expectations.
Pros
One of the best things about SaffireTix is how easy it is to quickly set up new events and get them on sale. We recently found ourselves in a situation where we had a very short time frame to get concert tickets on sale. Between the ease of 'back end' setup and the responsiveness of the support team, we were able to meet our on-sale deadline successfully. The system is very easy and intuitive for customers as well. The concert we were able to quickly get on sale unfortunately had to be cancelled about a month later. Processing the refunds was very fast and easy.
Cons
There are some features that can be hard to find, but the support team is very responsive and willing to help address any challenges.

Very User Friendly
As I indicated previously, the software program was already in place, and the overall experience has been great! Thanks [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN]!
Pros
The software was already in place when I started with the Florida Federation of Fairs, but it is quite user-friendly.
Cons
The features that are in place seem to be functioning quite well for us.

Twin Falls County Fair SaffireTix review
We have sold more tickets online with SaffireTix than we did with previous ticketing systems. It is not only user friendly on our side but also for the customer.
Pros
I like that the SaffireTix program is very user friendly.
Cons
We have struggles to get the reports to match up to the way we balance our internal ticket financial tracking system. Would like to be able to have a more customizable option.
Reasons for Choosing SaffireTix
I have worked closely with Saffire on another website project and was familiar with what they over and the outstanding customer service that they provide.
Reasons for Switching to SaffireTix
The system always had glitches that we could never seem to get fixed.

Most cost effective ticketing option
The Crew at Saffire has been VERY responsive to our needs and requests. Highly recommended.
Pros
We produce two large ticked events each year. Each of those events has multiple ticketed events with a variety of ticketing options. This system is the most versatile and cost effective program we have found. We get great customer support. I would highly recommend your consideration of their products.
Cons
Our only issue has been with our ability to provide sufficient internet service to our entire grounds. The system works wonderfully.
Reasons for Choosing SaffireTix
Flexibility to meet our varying purchase points for each event with the most cost effective service.

Saffire Tix Review
Overall we are satisfied with the software, they have help us with a report that did not exist. The staff onsite has been a big help.
Pros
We use the Saffire Tix for a few years now and have had good experiences with it. It has helped us to track sold and promotional passes. It gives us a report on online sales and when they are purchased, also we get an email address from the purchaser for future marketing.
Cons
At first we did have some issues at the gate in scanning tickets fast enough, some of that was due to our personnel and a learning curve and some was the original equipment which since has been improved. The last fair in 2019 went well

Great support
Saffire has been there each time we needed them. They help and explain everything. You have to be willing to learn, but they are so East to get ahold of
Pros
Wonderful support. The product does take some time to set up each year, but it gives us great reports and so many options.
Cons
We have scannable wristbands. Would like to see reports separate out the online purchase better from the scans on the wristband. We make it work, but it is a little repetitive

[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] is amazing at her job. She is always there to answer any questions we might have. She nevers say's I can't do that. It is always I will take care of that right away.
Pros
Saffire makes a very user friendly program. Easy to learn and we like that anyone on the board can go look at tickets sales and How many tickets are left for that show.
Cons
Nothing ...So easy. We also like that we can download the app on our phones to scan tickets.

Overall great product
The customer service is excellent. The program is simple to use on both the consumer and seller side.
Pros
Being able to hold seats and release whenever we had changes.
Cons
We do not want any printed tickets, so it’s confusing when the receipt says this is your ticket and that cannot be removed.
