### "Total Party Planner Review!"

December 12, 2016

4.0

Having come from the Delphi program before, I enjoy how user -friendly the program is. For the most part, the sequence of steps makes sense for creating and managing a booking. It's too bad that the program sorts by the event contact rather than the company but it isn't too detrimental in terms of "big picture." I really appreciate that whenever we have comments about the program, Comments are sent to development. Many times, our comments are heard and make a difference. Thank you!

### "Great Value"

December 8, 2016

5.0

We have been using since 2008 starting with their desktop version. The software is easy to use. The customer support is world class. We never have to wait very long to hear back with an answer or a phone call to help move us forward. Communication is key and they keep the customer informed as to update, upgrades, new features etc. And the best part is we can share what our needs are and they will try to incorporate it. World Class Product!

### "Works for me!"

November 19, 2013

4.0

If you know what you are doing than this is a great tool. However if you need to manage an inexperienced sales team, then it may not be a good choice. This feature rich software includes functions that others charge more for. In fact, it has more built in features than I use. No learning curve for me.. I never really setup this software, or trained to use it, but jumped in head first. My add things as I need them approach is not for everyone.

The software is so easy friendly. training is not necessary. It is easy to understand and follow. Customer support is great if you do have a question. The best part is that it is clear and concise both for you and the customer.

April 30, 2015

5.0

Have used TPP since it was desktop software and now use it on the web. TPP helps our account managers keep track of everything for a catering event in one place. We even bill out of TPP and then import that info into our accounting software - works great and keeps the data entry to a minimum. Info going to the customer is great looking and using the software is easy to do. We use it at multiple locations.

We've used for about 5 months and we love it. We love how we can really tailor the various software to our specific needs and when we reach a point that we can't, we just hire TPP to create custom forms for us. Their support staff is second to none. Very friendly and helpful. I highly recommend the software.

is the heart beat of our company. It is easy adaptable and use for all our divisions including on premise, off, express and lighting and design. The developers are always available for help, unlike other software companies that don't know their clients much less their needs. We are thankful daily for TPP.

April 30, 2015

I switched to TPP out of frustration with my current software. It was expensive and fragile and every time I had an issue, it was NOT covered under my maintenance plan. John and his staff are WONDERFUL to work with and they continue to update the software. It is easy to use and doesn't go down. What more can you ask for?

TPP is a wonderful event management platform. It's comprehensive and easy to use, unlike others I've seen during my 20 years as a catering and event industry consultant. It's also cost effective and quick to set up and launch. I highly recommend that you give TPP a hard look prior to choosing an event management tool.

### "Very user friendly"

October 26, 2016

is extremely user friendly and their customer support is amazing. If you don't know how to do something, they have a great library that explains everything step by step and if you can't find what you need, their customer support is very quick to get back to you. They treat you like you are the only client they have, so fantastic customer support - thank you!

Pros

It is quite user friendly

Cons

It has a rigid frame and you can't change how things look.

Let's face it. Catering can be a gauntlet. I purchased TPP when my company was small. It was a huge step up from Quickbooks Invoicing. It helped keep track of menu items, recipes, pricing, staffing, inventory and so much more. It helped facilitate our growth over the years.

I really like this program and would highly recommend it. Everyone I've spoken to when I needed help has been very knowledgeable and kind. I am someone who is pretty computer illiterate and they don't talk down to me. I haven't called often but I feel comfortable when I do.
