### "Our team liked using ticketbud for our traveling show."

March 7, 2018

3.0

Pros

We really liked using ticketbud to manage the promotion and system of ticket management for our traveling dance show. It helped us gauge ticket sales on a simple dashboard

Cons

We had a few times where the support wasn't the best and we thought the fees were a little higher than needed to be for the platform.

Hi Ray, Thanks for your review of Ticketbud! We're sorry to hear that you felt that our support wasn't the best. In regards to fees, we have a basic fee structure that is less expensive than most of our competitors. We appreciate your feedback and we will do our best to make sure support is much better for the future.

### "Good to get ticket sales up and running quickly"

February 21, 2020

4.0

We used this to get through a period of time where ticket sales on our website were down. It was selected because it was easy to get up and running. It was not sustainable as a long term alternative to website sales because of price and lack of customization.

Pros

This is very easy to use and google search results seem to scrape events and place them next to your business listing. You can get up and running quickly.

Cons

The lack of advanced features or ability to collect custom information. It's pretty basic, but that's also what makes it easy to use for beginner level business folks.

Alternatives considered

[WooCommerce](https://www.capterra.com/p/225601/WooCommerce/)

Reason for choosing Ticketbud

We did go with Woocommerce, but Ticketbud was quicker to get going and so served us well during a transition period.

August 29, 2025

5.0

Pros

This application is by far the best value for your money out there. It’s implies everything needed for a medium business.

Cons

I don’t have any cons. I’ve been using this application now for several months and everything has been running smoothly.

Ticketbud is a solid option for many event organizers, especially those who need a fast, relatively easy way to set up ticketing and registration and want decent promotional tools and good user experience without needing tons of technical setup.

Pros

Ticketbud is intuitive and easy to navigate, even for people without a technical background. The pricing has been one of the best parts.

Cons

Customization options are not as advanced as with competing platforms. There have been ticket scanning “hangs,” barcode reading problems, or glitches, especially on mobile devices.

Pros

It allows me quick functions from one to another and it’s GUI is easy to grasp for a first time user. The bookings are fast operative as well.

Cons

The software management when it comes to data reports is not really that good and precise.

### "Easy to use and any questions I had were promptly responded too. Can't ask for more than that."

June 26, 2017

5.0

Being able to get money in my account to make payments before the event, instead of just getting a bulk payment after the event.

Pros

Site was easy to use. They gave me the money just days after tickets were bought so I could pay venue, DJ, Photographer, etc. The customer service was excellent. I'd email a question in the morning and would get responded to that day if not within just a couple of hours. The getting the money before the end of the event, which is what another site was doing, allowed me to have a fund to make payments and I wouldn't have been able to do the event otherwise.

### "Good software and outstanding customer service!"

May 11, 2017

4.0

Pros

First of all, you can get an actual person on the phone, and pretty easily. I am over these sites where you can only talk via a computer - so inefficient and frustrating! And the customer service really is outstanding - they go the extra mile to help you, and stay with you until the problem is solved - never losing patience or professionalism. Recently, I had to navigate between Ticketbud and WePay (another site/software) and it was so frustrating to deal with WePay that the TB rep actually called them for me and worked it out - amazing! Saved me time, stress, and money.

### "Software que facilita la creación de eventos"

November 6, 2022

4.0

Primera aplicación de gestión de eventos que descubrí. Necesitábamos encontrar una herramienta que nos permitiera crear eventos en la zona donde vivo, y llevar un control eficiente de la asistencia de las personas. Lamentablemente, con el correr del tiempo fuimos comparando alternativas más completas, por lo que la frecuenta de uso comenzó a dejar de ser tan contínua.

Pros

Cuenta con una interfaz de usuario moderna limpia y completa. No hace falta tanto conocimiento para poder utilizarla, tanto para buscar eventos como para crealos.

Cons

Con el paso del tiempo, y comparando esta herramientas con otras, se descubre que cuenta con menos características implementadas que la competencia.

May 16, 2017

4.0

Pros

free ! Once I learned how to maneuver, it was awesome. The customer service was amazing. My rep was very helpful

Cons

There were a few things that I wanted to do that it would not allow me to do. My rep set up the event for me, per my specifications.

### "Ticketbud Review"

February 18, 2020

5.0

Pros

This software is very straight forward. It is so easy to setup and you are able to scan tickets using your phone. It also allows you to generate your ticket sales and export it and also allows you to see each purchase made.

Cons

There are times when scanning tickets the software 'hangs up' and so you have to restart it. Also it sometimes has issues reading the barcodes that are on another phone screen, but other than that, it works perfectly.

### "Good SquareSpace calendar option"

December 8, 2015

4.0

I started using Ticketbud because the SquareSpace calendar does not currently allow recurring events. It was very easy to embed the Ticketbud calendar into the library's SquareSpace website. So far, I'm finding Ticketbud intuitive and easy to use. There are a few enhancements I'd like to see, but overall I'm happy with the switch. I called for help and also used chat help and both times was helped quickly by professional and competent people. Improvements that could be made: Allow multiple dates for an event that can be recurring. For example, an event that happens every Monday and Wednesday. Right now, I have to add 2 separate events, one for Monday and one for Wednesday. Allow the "ticket" section of an event to be hidden. This of course goes against the purpose of Ticketbud, but it might be useful for customers who don't need the ticketing portion.

### "Excellent Service, Excellent Customer Service"

July 28, 2015

5.0

We recently opened a new website with Squarespace, and were shocked and dismayed that every event on the calendar (for us, that's about 48 events per week) had to be entered manually every time!!! There was in other words no "repeating event" option for calendar entry. Enter Ticketbud to save the day (and weeks, and months, and years!! :-) There were clear instructions on how to do this actually on the Squarespace page, and we are delighted with the results. I am quite new to this kind of thing, and have had questions come up, but Ticketbud's customer service have been prompt, courteous, and knowledgeable. We are very happy to have found them and recommend them highly.

January 27, 2016

5.0

As new users to this type of service, the staff at Ticketbud have thus far made our overall experiences a breeze. Being a user who doesn't have advanced tech savvy skills, the site was pretty easy to navigate and offered multiple great ticketing and info options that we could customize for our event. It was wonderful to use a service where you could easily contact a REAL person and get REAL help, right away. In this wacky-doodle no human contact Internet world, the kind and competent level of customer service is completely refreshing. We had a little trouble with our photos and a few other details, but customer service was quick to talk us through. We've just posted our first event and are looking forward to learning more about the service as we start to sell tickets.

### "Easy to Use Ticketing"

January 15, 2020

5.0

Pros

It was very easy to set up and use this software. The daily payouts were great.

Cons

I had an event scheduled and someone who was not an organizer of the event contacted Ticketbud and cancelled the event without my knowledge. They removed the event and refunded all the ticketholders without notifying me and I ended up incurring expenses from that. They never contacted me and when I contacted them about it, they never bothered to respond. Very poor customer service and should never have happened with no contact.

### "Hands down best ticketing service on the market"

December 10, 2015

5.0

Cannot say enough about Ticketbud, these guys have done their homework and truly built a phenomenal platform. I have tried four other ticketing services and Ticketbud is my top choice. Cheapest to use, most functionality on the backend, great face for customer side, integration with payment gateway, social media and their customer service is top notch. I always get questions answered immediately. They want you to be successful, it is clear. Ticketbud will be my go to platform. Try it for one event, try their competitors. Do your homework and it's a no brainer you'll wind up with these guys.

### "Awesome Site / Awesome Service"

January 27, 2016

This site is perfect for events that you do not need a full blown website for. I researched all of the available options and elected to use Ticketbud - I have not been disappointed. It is easy to use, and has a ton of really neat features, that are also very useful. I will continue to use Ticketbud for my events, without a doubt. The customer service has been second to none. I do not do bad customer service - ever, but Ben has exceeded my expectations. Nothing has been an issue, and all of my queries from the other side of the globe have been answered super promptly. I'm impressed.

January 27, 2016

4.0

We've been able to utilize various features of Ticketbud - from individual and repeating events to calendar integration for our website and social media sites. When problems or glitchy issues have occurred, the customer service has been quick and eager to help us work it out. I've had some issues with repeating events (disappearing from our calendar or uneditable on the back end, unable to copy, etc) and have had issues with our events showing up in searches. Largely our experience has been good and has proven useful to help grow our new business. Thanks, Ticketbud!

I had a lot of questions and they answered them all.

Pros

I love that they don't have a monthly fee for their service. You only pay a fee for tickets purchased with a credit card.

Cons

I would like to see a portal to sell tickets when face to face.
