### "Incredibly helpful and ideally suited to our needs"

October 18, 2018

5.0

We needed a ticket solution for our festival that was flexible, well integrated into our own site and looked good. That was harder to find than you'd think. We found Line-Up after a LOT of searching - and are really pleased with the results. We'll be working with them from now on.

Pros

It looks great, integrates well on our website and the worklow is well thought out from start to finish. Also, the help we had from the team was exceptional.

Cons

There actually isn't anything I would identify as being a flaw. I think the service is young, which was initially a concern, but they seem to be doing everything right.

### "Line Up "

July 24, 2019

5.0

As a long time Spektrix user, I was quite set in my ways by the time I came to launch Arts Tickets. At the time, the system was relatively basic and not well equipped to host a show with a booking period of longer than about a month but we have worked together over the last year to add and enhance features within the system and the guys have been so open-minded and accommodating of my millions of requests! They are always on the end of the phone or email to help and to pitch in if I need something urgently. I would already recommend the system as it is but can happily say that it is only going to continue improving. My favourite feature is the CSV sales upload. For our shows, we operate paperless guest lists; the front of house team have tablets with Line Up on and they use the Web Check In feature to mark guests as checked in. This means we require customer names from our third party agents. When an Excel/CSV file with First Name, Last Name and Number of Tickets is copied and pasted into the Bulk Issue field, you can essentially just drag and drop your sales in for quick and easy processing!

Pros

The software is very user friendly and has some very smart shortcuts for certain processes.

Cons

The existing API links with agents' systems are limited but that will change as time goes on.

Line Up offers a more client focussed approach and more flexibility in adapting the system to reach its fullest potential.

### "Very helpful and met all our needs"

December 2, 2016

4.0

We worked closely with Line-Up as we were developing a new website for our venue and they were incredibly helpful. They added extra features to the plug-in as our request. Months later, they continue to respond immediately to any request. The posting of events is very easy, and I like the way it gets you to check that you are not duplicating an event (which can happen with several different people added events to one venue). Two areas that could be improved are: Adding categories The buying tickets interface Overall very happy with Line-Up

Pros

Customer service

Cons

### "Perfect solution to our Box Office woes"

August 13, 2019

5.0

So far Line Up has provided us with an effective booking system that enables us to free up staff time and ensure our audiences/bookers are happy. The phone is definitely ringing much less! We've had to slightly tweak the system to suit our needs and even though some options weren't possible, nothing was too much trouble and Line Up were always happy to investigate and offer solutions. Their customer service is impeccable and looking forward to working with them as we develop our offer at Theatre Peckham.

Pros

We needed a system that was easy to use by both our audiences/bookers and staff team members. Line Up provides a user friendly journey for both of us, that is quick, simple and effective. It's great to know the Line Up team are just at the end of the phone if we need any support .

Cons

We need to do a lot of reporting for Arts Council that means gathering lots of data and being able to pull many different reports. Even though some requirements aren't yet supported by Line Up, we were able to work out suitable solutions.

Alternatives considered

Reason for choosing Line-Up

Cost, usability and because we had received brilliant recommendations from fellow organisations

### "Line-Up at The Bunker Theatre"

December 3, 2016

5.0

Line-Up has been exceptional, not only in delivering a ticketing system for The Bunker Theatre that provides ultimate ease at point-of-use for our customers but a system that aims to optimize the backend of the system, taking theater ticketing well and truly into the 21st century. Reactionary sales updates and analysis are helping us scrutinize the effectiveness of our marketing. On the door check-in is easy and sales can be taken right up to the show starting. This high-class ticketing system is backed up by a world-class team that has gone the extra mile to make sure that the system works best for us as a venue. They are continually making improvements, allowing us to adapt and optimize the system to our needs, our producers needs and our audience's needs. They have worked tirelessly to hit our deadlines and I am convinced that, with more honing and developing, their system will quickly take over all Off-West End and touring venues and will overtake any competition in the sector.

Pros

The software is easy to use, incorporates live updates, and serves our needs of the theater.

Cons

There are still some teething issues, but Line-Up is very fast to respond and fix any bugs or errors that arise.

### "A great all-round ticketing service at a resonable price and constantly improving."

August 17, 2017

5.0

We use it for our entire theatre venue to sell tickets for shows and festivals and it offers and all-round ticketing service.

Pros

We use LineUp for our entire theatre venue, including shows and festivals, and it's a great tool. It provides an all-round ticketing service at a reasonable price and has a great team, quick to give support and take feedback on board.

Cons

It does perhaps not have as many features as some other providers at this stage, but new feature are being added all the time.

### "Most helpful team EVER"

August 31, 2017

5.0

Really comprehensive overview of many events, easy use, easy access to information.

Pros

The customer service from these guys is just perfect. They are always on hand to fix anything, including large-scale stuff about how the software functions.

Cons

Can't make notes on bookings - but it's in the pipeline. The final ticket list sin't always that comprehensive because we use a lot of codes, and they don't show up as separate amounts, menaing you have to do a bit more maths.

### "Ticket Selling for Pint-Sized"

December 2, 2016

5.0

I run a theatre company called Pint-Sized and we use Line-Up to sell tickets for our short play events. It's easily the best ticketing service we've used - simple, so easy to use and we've found that we have actually sold more tickets through their quick, no-hassle payment system. The fact that customers can buy tickets on the actual page of the event, and the event organisers can check how many tickets you've sold within seconds, makes the whole process beneficial for everyone. Can highly recommend Line-Up to any event organisers out there, especially anyone involved in the arts. Easily the best ticketing system I've ever seen on a theatre website!

Pros

How customers can buy tickets on the page of the event, e.g. on a theatre website as opposed to taking you to an external link. Have found that this helps more people buy tickets for the event as it gets rid of any confusion and takes you to the payment process quickly.

### "Just what we wanted"

December 2, 2016

5.0

The ticketing widget looks good on our website, and doesn't take customers away from our site. It gives a smooth, quick experience for our customers, is easy for us to manage - refunds and transfers are so easy to do. We are a small organization but have distinct requirements and chose the pro version to have bespoke tickets - we think this has been very worthwhile. The Customer Support has been excellent and they have helped us think it through and get it right for us (I'm not very IT savvy!). They are developing new features all the time as they get customer feedback. Have a look at our site www.ouseburntrust.org.uk/buy-tour-tickets and see for yourself.

### "We used Line Up to manage ticketing for our Festival. The customer support was second to none."

September 6, 2017

5.0

Great customer support.

Pros

Our needs were complex. There were multiple shows on each day, a variety of webpages needing widgets to link to the purchase basket, and a wide a range of combined and discounted tickets. Line Up worked tirelessly with us through a series of iterations to help come up with the perfect user interface. They even went as far as embedding for us the required widget code on each of about 30 separate pages on our website. Highly recommended.

### "Fantastic service, the customer service is just incredible, the staff are always happy to help."

November 11, 2017

5.0

Pros

Once you get used to the service it is extremely easy to use, it's extremely easy to integrate with your word press website. You have access to all your customers data which is usually withheld on other ticketing platforms.

Cons

I had a bit of trouble working out how to use some features (which the lineup crew had no issue helping me understand once reaching out to them) but after getting the hang of things that issue was easily solved.

### "Excellent - easy to use"

September 8, 2017

5.0

Pros

The software has been so easy to use - we're using it to sell tickets for a large event we are running. We can easily view how many tickets have been sold and how many are remaining, increase or decrease the number of tickets available, and edit the pricing of tickets. There's also an option to put tickets through as complimentary to book slots for VIP guests.

August 29, 2017

5.0

Pros

Superb and friendly customer service and a smooth running and efficient ticketing service. The costs seem way below their nearest competitor and we have had difficulties with other ticketing services, both technically and on customer service. Not Line up! The service was up and running within hours of us applying and has run smoothly ever since.

Pros

I like The customisable features on the ticketing page, the fact you can choose colours and it's really easy to change things too.

Cons

I think must be the fee but it's better then most so can't complain. I struggled at first just to get my head around how the fees work but now I understand it's so easy.
