Very good.

Support from Ticketsource for season tickets

Nothing that I can think of apart from the detail required in this feedback

We have been using Ticketsource for at our theatre for approximately 5 years now. The system works well for our customers who can book seats at a time that suits them and we do not have to be on site to take bookings. As a small venue this is very cost effective for us as we do not have to staff a 24hour box office. Our staff we find the systems straightforward and reliable. We have all the booking details at our fingertips, so we are able to answer customer queries efficiently. Archive materials are easily accessible which makes financial reconciliation straightforward and transparent. We are able to link directly to our website and can also benefit from the wider Ticketsource community on line. Ticketsource allows us to customise each event to our own needs allowing us to create tailor made seating plans, pricing structures and booking discounts and incentives. We can add information and publicity material to each performance. Customer support is very good with a number of options including FAQ's to assist with basic problems, an on line help facility and a telephone help line. The site also includes very helpful tutorials for setting up events and trouble shooting, which are brief and not at all patronising. Ticketsurce also allows us to run our own box office at strategic times and as much of our business is from schools, dance schools and local amateur companies within a small radius of the venue, it means that customers have the option not to get involved in the extra cost of booking fees. It would help us greatly as a venue if there were an option to print off whole shows with all the ticket prices on one ticket, as many amateur groups who sell within their own small community like to take possession of all the tickets to sell directly. I am aware that this does not benefit Ticketsource and would make accounting for ticket sales impossible, but many of our clients would prefer to have multiple prices on each ticket, enabling them to highlight the price paid or to cross off the other prices. I'm not sure if other venues would benefit from this service and I fully appreciate that we may be in the minority. I would certainly recommend Ticketsource to venues of all sizes as it really is a complete package. The rates are reasonable and the support is excellent

Does what it promises. Editing entries is harder than it needs to be. I never click on the correct menu option the first time - definitely not intuitive to anyone other than the writer of the software. This would be less frustrating if I used the system more often but with only a couple of events a year I have to learn the quirks again each time.

I like the quick answering of the Ticketsource helpline phone by someone in the UK (Wales) who is of course familiar with our language and vernacular. Help lines in the Philippines may be on offer 24/7 but they dont understand the nuances of an issue being discussed. I am running a multi-event festival it has become very simple to set up the system now.

It improves each time we use it, adding welcome new features. It is complex but logical.

The public access to a current event shows say X Tickets available. It would help if it said X tickets available out of Y, where Y is the maximum. I encourage my multiple small event organizers to watch their ticket bookings (they dont have access to the back of house) and it gets confusing when they cant remember how many tickets there are for the event but it says say 32 Available or worse still 50+ available. Also, when setting up multiple events with the same Ticket Launch Date, why cant we click "All event tickets available from the same date" Also when selecting a venue location at the beginning for a new event, why cant we set up a subdirectory of our own regularly used venues rather than scrolling down numerous similar venues across the globe.

We have been using TicketSource as our sole provider for Box Office solutions now for just over a year. During this time, they have continued to improve what was already an excellent product! The service provided when cancelling a show or encountering a technical issue has been superb. Issues are dealt with efficiently and you are kept informed of progress at all times. New features are introduced at a steady pace, allowing for casual users to maintain their knowledge at all times - vital when operating with a core of voluntary staff. Many of the new features introduced have been as a result of requests and the feedback system for suggesting these improvements is again very useful. There is a flexibility throughout the modules that allows for any possible outcome or request to be solved. Whilst this does not boast as many built in marketing tools as other Box Office solutions, steps have been taken to improve this over the past few months. MailChimp integration has now been added which allows mailing lists to be updated automatically (drastically reducing time spent exporting customer lists and updating manually!) Reporting and maintaining records has been a real improvement for the Box Office. The system tracks customers and all of their purchases meaning targeted marketing is always an option. Sales reports as requested by many commercial users of the theatre as well as hirers are easily run, though be warned it is not possible to schedule these. Overall, whilst there is not some features of other Box Office solutions, the service and quality of product provided at no cost is excellent! We would thoroughly recommend the system to any other theatres or ticketing establishments.

TicketSource system is the best Box Office system I have found, does everything we would need and more. There are so many features it is such a flexible system. Support is excellent, very responsive and quick.

Nothing really, its just a great system that does all we need.

Ticketsource is an excellent Box Office system, great customer support and always adding new features.

Nothing really, its a great system, does exactly what it should do without too much complication!

I have been using TicketSource for 18 months and once you get to understand what the various options are and how to deal with the charges (fee added on in full or fixed amount etc) it is simplicity itself to use thereafter. Help is at hand if you don't understand the online instructions. Copying and then amending an existing event to create a new event makes life very easy as you do not have to enter all the regular details each time. Reporting is excellent on both customers and event ticket sales and having emails when there has been a sale is an excellent facility to keep track of progress on ticket sales. Funds are always trafsferred soon after the event has ended and there has never been any problem reconciling the amounts received as each event is paid separately and matches the sales report. Could not be simpler. As a rural venue it has added to our customer base with almost 20% of ticket sales now being online rather than purchased in our two local shops or at the door. Furthermore most new customers tick the box that allows us to add them to our emailing list for event information. Our list has doubled in the past 12 months, mostly due to new online purchasers asking to be added to it.

Satisfied it was a decent experience jojestly

That it was fairly easy to use and follow along and the prices

Not more information on page very basic. Could have had more products for sale

I will be back in 2 years time for our next show!!!

This is the first time using ticket source as I usually do tickets myself. Ticket source was easy to set up and manage, I was able to change things even after tickets had gone on sale, refunds and exchanges were also easy to do.

I had a little trouble in the beginning setting up 2 events on the same day but the customer services was very helpful and fixed the problem right away!

1, Good customer service and very helpful to provide solutions and ideas to suit the clients needs 2. Simple to use system, however we still have issues with the scanners and collation of scanned users 3. Versatile product - but the functionality to allow the client to associate a bar code with a particular seat for Season Ticket holders would be useful. For example we need bar codes printed onto cards before a person has chosen an actual seat. 4. Competition is growing from other similar companies offering to charge ticket commissions of 5% and payments made as they are purchased by the customer - From our company viewpoint we are very happy with Ticketsource but we have to evaluate options, especially commercial ones that serve our customers and cash flow better from a commercial standpoint.

I use ticket source for 90% of my events. I found them via The Pumphouse Children's Theatre in Watford UK, and have been singing there praises ever since. There are some usability issues in the ticketing (the iphone app is MEGA slow unless you have phenomenal lighting which is not always the case in a theatre) and there are some confusing issues regaring the best way to set up ticket prices, nevertheless staff are helpful and usually pretty quick. idance® is happy to recommend (and have many many times done it) TicketSource !

We've been using TicketSource for many years now and the customer service team are exceptionally good at getting you started, helping to iron out kinks and give support when needed. However, the system is really intuitive and easy to use. They have added extra functions over the years and it feels very bespoke given how it can be adapted to different venues and events. I feel it is by far the most friendly and easy to use system out there.

The only thing (as a charity) we don't like is that any donations also get a surcharge as it feels like a heavy penalty on people's generosity over and above what they pay for their ticket fee.

The customer support was great, I especially liked the fact the team could view how I had set up our event page and provide step by step advice. The FAQ's on the website were helpful too. I often found it difficult to find the right set of data and became confused at times when trying to understand the difference between two data sets eg. sales report, the front of house report, price category report etc. However, whenever I had a query, customer service was always available to take my call. One suggestion for improving the system would be to have a function where customers who buy tickets can be directed to share their purchase on Facebook or Twitter.

The TicketSource site is quite the best I have found for on-line booking for our shows. We are just starting to accept bookings on line and were very nervous about the things that could go wrong leaving our customers frustrated and angry. I am pleased to say that nothing like this has happened and the feedback we have had so far is very favourable. The reports that are readily available keep us in control of the sales and monitor their progress. The detailed financial reports and the prompt payment of receipts are a boon to our treasurer. I particularly like the way we can integrate the on-line sales with our over the counter sales as many of our older patrons are uneasy about using computers to buy things on-line. The facilities in the software range from very simple to the most elaborate you could imagine. I would not hesitate to recommend this site to any Amateur Groups.

This is such a useful service for small organisations who want to sell tickets over the internet. We are a small amateur drama society who do no more than £4000 a year ticket revenue but find it is well worth while. It is very flexible and if you are reasonably comfortable with using the web it should not take more than an hour to learn how to use it. The only cons * To use it efficiently (so e.g. you are not copying out the same material frequently) takes a bit of time to master. * It is not free. As a small organisation we pay 10% extra for the service which we make the customers pay. This is a fairly substantial increase although I can see that Ticketsource has to pay for their service somehow.

I have been using ticket source on behalf of The Kings Hall and can say just how pleased I am with the service. It's very easy to use - customers have given great feedback and I've been able to edit events with no fuss. On a couple of occasions I have called the help line and they have been very quick to answer - no long waits which is so often the case with other companies and they have been able to advise and sort my question straight away. If I have to mention an improvement I would only say it would be good to see our events go out in their Twitter feeds occasionally. Overall, top marks!
