### "Brushfire - Athletic Ticketing Made Easy"

December 19, 2024

5.0

Brushfire seems to be on call 24/7. We submit our ticketing needs for our events by sport and they quickly create the needed schedule tickets. If a game changes or is added late, Brushfire responds quickly and makes the needed adjustments.

Pros

The platform is very easy to use and navigate. The customer service Brushfire provides is 2nd to none. If an issue pops up or a change needs to be made, they willingly complete the needed task.

Cons

It is hard to say. I have only had positive experiences with Brushfire.

### "Exceptional Event Management "

January 6, 2025

5.0

I had the pleasure of working with Brushfire and they exceeded all my expectations. From start to finish, their team was incredibly processional, responsive and easy to work with. They consistently answered emails promptly, which made communication seamless and stress free. I truly felt like they cared about the success of my event.

Pros

Incredibly professional, responsive and easy to work with

Cons

Nothing impacted my over all experience. Honestly had no issues working with Brushfire.

### "A powerful multi use Registration Platform"

November 9, 2023

5.0

Fantastic would highly recommend this product.

Pros

Brushfire is an outstanding multi-use ticketing platform perfect for all sized events and loaded with great reporting, registration, and check in tools. Its very easy to use compared to other platforms on the market and gives you multiple personalisation tools in the ticketing space to make your event run smoothy. I would highly recommend this platform and the customer service and support is better then the majority of software companies on the market.

Cons

Lack of triggers to automate email communication or customised forms to collect additional information (and only additional information) post registration.

### "Excellent Event Management Tool"

January 31, 2022

5.0

Overall my experience has been very smooth, thanks to their Customer Support team! Like I said, there is almost always a way to do what I need to do and someone is there to help walk me through how or to do it for me and show me what they did so that I can learn for the future.

Pros

Honestly the Customer Support.... if ever there was something I couldn't figure out on my own end from registration build to email marketing to adding features to reporting to name tag creation, their Customer Support was there to walk me through it or build it out for me. They also were the front line response team to most of our guests answering as many questions as they could on our behalf. This is the extension of our own team, in my opinion, for an organization that doesn't have the capacity to hire people directly to answer all of our event attendees questions!

Cons

A lot of the locations of features are not intuitive. For example, the way to find out how many guests received refunds was not intuitive, but there is always a workaround and way to figure it out!

Switched from

[TicketSpice](https://www.capterra.com/p/146463/TicketSpice/)

While I was not at the organization when they made the switch, I have heard that it mostly had to do with the fact that Brushfire offers Customer Support who is able to answer guest questions. This alone made my experience of Brushfire positive.

### "Absolutely Incredible."

December 17, 2019

5.0

My overall experience with Brushfire is incredible. I mean, hands down their customer service is the best. Any time I need something, I send a quick email and get a response within the hour. The team takes on the problem as their own and helps me to find the most creative and best way to solve it. I also love that it's not a one-size fits all approach. The customization in form creation is amazing and the team helps in bringing the desires to life!

Pros

I absolutely love the back end of brushfire. The update to the "Manage" page really increased the usability and ease of finding things. Oh, and the reporting feature. I love the ability to create custom reports within the same system and not have to download multiple spreadsheets to create my own views. And the customer service is top notch. Nothing like it: Fast, responsive and more than helpful in troubleshooting the best way to accomplish your request.

Cons

I wish the check-in app was a little better in ease of use and for admins. It would be great as an admin to be able to use the app to see registrations, look up registrants, etc. Basically anything I can do on desktop in app form would be amazing!

### "So robust, yet so easy to use!"

August 31, 2021

5.0

Amazing! We'll be using them again and again - and recommending them to others!

Pros

Ease of setting up new events, repeat events, and then sharing information with team members and collaborators - whether through users or automatic reports. In addition, the Support team is incredible, from simple changes to elaborate custom needs, they have been so helpful all along the way. The ability to hide/show what we need to for different attendee types is amazing. Also, love the integration between the in-person event registration and the online livestream event portal.

Cons

There are areas that are fairly locked in due trying to accomodate as many people as possible - for example, it'd be nice to be able to design our own e-ticket (rather than work through them). We've gotten it setup for our multi-day Homecoming event, but it's a little clunky. It is much better at single events/tickets, rather than multiple days with lots of varied events.

### "Brushfire is a perfect fit for our organization and event"

October 6, 2022

5.0

Brushfire has been great and a perfect fit for us and our event. \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] has been the best account rep and is always willing and available to help out. Even when we are in a bit of panic, he is there right away to fix our issues. The issues mostly stem from us being a volunteer organization that puts on one event per year.

Pros

We love how user friendly it is. It can be shown to someone in minutes. For a volunteer organization that relies on our event for major fundraising, Brushfire is perfect for us.

Cons

I cannot think of many right now. Brushfire has a great product for what we do.

I have enjoyed working with Brushfire and having one customer service agent available to us (\[sensitive content hidden\] ) who knows our needs from working with us for several years.

Pros

I like that Brushfire continues to grow and desires to meet the needs that we have.

Cons

I think Customizable Reports need to add an AN/OR filter choice.

### "Brushfire: A perfect solution to Hillsong's small to large scale event's ticketing and registrations"

May 26, 2017

5.0

Pros

I have been responsible for our large event's ticketing and registrations for a number of years as well as the technology and information areas for Hillsong Church. Two years ago, after meeting with the world's best ticketing platforms and providers and coming to the realisation that they could not support our specific requirements as a church requiring complexity and depth in our registrations, we decided to build our own software. However, we understood the gravity of the decision to develop such a system and weren't excited about the journey ahead. I was introduced to Brushfire Technology and their ticketing and registration platform. After a very short time and no upfront costs, Brushfire's solution had proven itself as the perfect solution for our needs, with their unique understanding of industry standards around software development and the nature of the church, we had found our answer. This allowed our conferences and events to move forward and our technology department concentrates on other issues. Brushfire as a team now operates as an extension of our own events and technology departments, though their flexibility and commitment to excellence in customer service it's difficult to remember that they are a supplier and not part of our family. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

### "Fantastic product, even better customer service "

October 25, 2022

5.0

I have loved using Brushfire for the last 4 years. I have used many event systems and this is by far superior to many on the market.

Pros

Brushfire is great to use, the team have been so supportive the whole way, with training and support. Despite the time difference we have never waited for more than a few hours for assistance. They have trained several of our staff and volunteers and continued to support us throughout the pandemic when events where minimal.

Cons

In all honestly, nothing really springs to mind.

### "Does the (basic) trick"

August 26, 2021

4.0

We are implementing Brushfire to handle a 2,000-person, 2-day event. We use a custom solution for our smaller events.

Pros

Brushfire support has been strong. The service is built for organizations that need to handle lots of people in a short time for low cost. We like the fact that (optionally) tickets can be purchased for a group without providing the personal details of each person. The price of the service is reasonable.

Cons

I wish there were more options for building an event website. It's a registration service, and apparently a good one, but certainly not comparable to some competitors when it comes to the website.

Reason for choosing Brushfire

Brushire seemed a low-cost, well-built solution that would save us the work of creating our own solution but still provide some flexibility. We were particularly keen on the way Brushfire handles group ticketing--we can set this so that personal information is required only from the purchaser and not from each ticket-holder. (If you prefer, you can require personal information from everyone.)

### "Love Brushfire"

December 16, 2020

5.0

Being a school we host many events during the year like homecoming, parent events, club activities, fund raisers, conferences, training events etc. The Brushfire team has gone over and above to make their platform work for our many varying needs and events. They are professional, prompt, and their work product is excellent.

Pros

The flexibility of the program as we use it for more then I'm sure it was intended. We use it for all our events, product sells, sign ups etc.

Cons

We use the platform for more then it was intended so occasionally have to use things in a template that we do not like but nothing that can't be worked around.

Reason for choosing Brushfire

We have been with Brushfire since the very beginning of Brushfire :)

Sometimes we experience occasional glitches with the software. I hope customer support would improve in terms of response time and availability of resources.

Pros

The best features for me is the automated content generation, editing tools, and analytics. It also has an intuitive design that makes it easy to use and navigate. The pricing is also very reasonable compared to other similar tools on the market.

Cons

Sometimes we experience occasional glitches with the software, also, the customer support could be improved in terms of response time and availability of resources.

### "Brushfire: Making Registration Less of a Firestorm"

November 12, 2019

5.0

We used Brushfire once, but it was exactly what we needed. The team is very supportive and gives you exactly what you ask for, provided you can give them the information they need. Highly recommended.

Pros

Brushfire is a program that allows you to organize an event that requires registration, ticketing, and seating. It's built specifically for religious organizations and ministrations, and we used it to set up a small benefit concert for our church. We merely had to plug in all the necessary info, such as event date, pricing, and seating, and from there the Brushfire team did most of the work. The pricing is fair, and there are only two price models, so it's simple enough. It's exactly what it sounds like, and it's great.

Cons

The Brushfire team builds the registration site for you, which I appreciated very much, but I do wish we could have had greater involvement in how to actual registration site looked.

### "Working with Brushfire has been a great experience! I love the product and the team behind it."

May 16, 2017

5.0

Better registration experience for our customers and organization for our team!

Pros

I love the reporting module! It is very user-friendly compared to some other reporting software that I have used. I also appreciate the ability to customize event set up for the needs of our organization. I think we do some wild things sometimes that Brushfire handles well and I have even had cases where the team changed the software to function better for our needs. Brushfire has LOTS features and helpful tools! Sometimes I feel as though we have just scratched the surface.

Cons

The many features Brushfire offers came with quite a learning curve for me (BUT, BF team is always quick to help me out!). It took me about 6 months to feel like a savvy admin. That being said though, I feel as though our organization does some intense things with ticketing that may add an element of complexity. :)

July 19, 2021

5.0

We came to Brushfire from a free, online event website service that wasn't meeting all our needs. We have been very pleased at what Brushfire offers, the user experience, the backend for admins, the customer service, and how cleanly it integrates with our content delivery network.

Pros

The user experience for the online site is clean and feature rich. We especially like the option of an integrated paywall and the ability to host multiple live streams with unique user experiences on 1 site.

Cons

We haven't spent a lot of time using the registration site, but it seems to have a more difficult learning curve than the online site. For us, that's ok. We have time to learn the registration side before our first registered event.

Flexible registrations and ease of reports. Ease of refunds.

Pros

Very versatile - ticket registrations, payments, easy to refund, downloads into excel. Love the ease of reporting & use.

Cons

Only one email can be set up to receive the alerts & immediate payments for each event. This isn't a big concern for myself but we have so many different departments using the software it is more complex for us because there are so many users. Love it though. Anyone can log in and find their own reports so this isn't a major con.

### "Saved us where other software lacked"

November 15, 2021

5.0

Pros

My department went to this software when we found our new software lacking in the area of ticket registration. I have been very pleased with Brushfire as it has saved us in this area and surprised us! The options for the different ways to interpret the data have become very useful. Being able to take that data, extract it, and analyze it has helped us better understand our advertising campaigns, purchasing history, seat breakdown. The ability to create the details we want included (yes/no questions) and shift things around when changes happen, has been extremely helpful in collecting what we need to collect and fix human errors. All in all, a VERY good software.

Cons

The many data points and ways to interpret the data can be a bit overwhelming. While this is awesome, the sheer magnitude of the different options can come off as a big bite to chew (all this to say, it is learnable and the data interpretations are extremely helpful when following trends, gathering numbers, etc.).

December 17, 2019

We had been looking for something that would link to our Square account, and Brushfire exactly fit the bill for that! In addition to solving that problem, anytime I had a question or wanted our online forms to do just a little something different, the Brushfire team was willing and able to do what we needed in order to make our event a success! Great team!

Pros

I loved the fact that our attendees could go online, choose the events they were going to attend, and pay for everything right then and there! It was awesome!

Cons

I really didn't have any drawbacks to using this software!
