Wedding Manager Hospitality ### "Wedding venue review of Sonas" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 8/10 February 26, 2026 Sonas has significantly improved how we manage our wedding venue. It keeps our sales leads organised, helps us track each step through to contract signing, and makes monitoring payments simple. Once our menus were customised, couples found it easy to enter guest names, meal choices, and seating plans. The timeline feature is especially helpful for keeping both staff and clients informed. \[sensitive content hidden\] has been amazing from day one. She answered every question quickly and guided us through the early stages with so much patience. Even now, three years on, she responds almost immediately and is always cheerful, supportive, and willing to help. Pros The journey from a client's first contact, through post-tour messages and then booking a wedding and signing contracts is a smooth process. Cons Setting up new menus can be fiddly, but the help articles and the instant chat facility are very useful in figuring out these details Review source Non-incentivized review: any software user can leave a review for any product listed on our site.

From the initial setup right through to ongoing support, they have taken the time to truly understand our business and its specific needs. They are always open to feedback and have consistently listened to our suggestions for improvements or adjustments that help the system work even better for us. Pros Sonas has genuinely transformed the way we manage our weddings and events, streamlining so many of the administrative tasks that come with event planning. Having everything centralised in one place has significantly reduced both time and stress for our team, and the system is a pleasure to use. Our couples really value it too, as it keeps everything clear, organised, and easily accessible. The support behind the software is exceptional. It’s incredibly reassuring to know that if we ever have a question or run into an issue, we can simply use the chat function and receive a prompt, helpful response. Cons Nothing to date.

Wedding Manager Entertainment ### "Great Software and Support " 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 September 26, 2025 Exemplary and with ease! On hand support whenever we need it. Assistance given to grow areas and departments we didnt consider - personal and bespoke to our needs Pros Sonas has been a great addition to us as a Wedding Venue. Easy to use and navigate around - customers love it and the administration for us as Wedding Planners has dramatically reduced since working with the software. Great support from the team with queries and constant upgrades evolving all the time. Great Value for money that we have implemented through to our other business! Keep up the great work Cons As anything the 'change' into something new isnt always something we choose. So the 'cons' was learning a new system but that was the process not the software. The initial build was completed by the Sonas team with on hand assistance at all times Review source Non-incentivized review: any software user can leave a review for any product listed on our site.

Venue Manager Events Services ### "Over Barn Sonas Review" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 9/10 September 25, 2025 \[sensitive content hidden\] and the team have been so helpful and made using the software great. Even after the set up/training process they have been so helpful and the chat element on the system is great with quick responses. Pros The softwear has been helping track enquries and help with chase ups. Helping with contracts, email templates, scheduled emails, bookings, viewings and organising the wedding events. It has bee well received by nearly all our customers and I have been able to easily help with any queries. The team have been so helpful with updates and training during the set up process. Cons Set up was tricky and the menu can be difficult to navigate. Customers are finding this the biggest hurdle when planning everything. The room layout isn't the easiest to navigate. Working on a phone is also tricky and a stumbling block for customers. Review source Non-incentivized review: any software user can leave a review for any product listed on our site. All submitted reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication. Response from Vendor October 2, 2025 Thanks so much for your review Josh, I'm glad Sonas is working out well for you. We'll be in touch to see more about your specific issues. Mobile has had a lot of updates recently so hopefully that has resolved your main issue. SS Sarah S. Director Events Services ### "A very happy New Zealand venue!" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 May 29, 2025 10/10 - the integration is lengthy but it needs to be to ensure it's all set up correctly. I think that also reflects how detailed Sonas is, so it's worth spending the time to set it up correctly. Overall, I would highly recommend Sonas, and not just for the software itself but for the support too - working with amazing people is so important and I am so grateful to them for their work with us! Pros Sonas is intuitive, detailed and user friendly! I have already had emails from clients who are so excited about using it for their wedding planning. One of the biggest positives of Sonas for me, is the support. From the very first enquiry, the team have been nothing but responsive, supportive, friendly and helpful. The onboarding process is outstanding, they are available every step of the way and despite time differences, emails are always timely. We reviewed a number of other options and the service truly made Sonas stand out to us. Sonas is so easily customisable to your venue, whenever I thought I'd come up with a problem that couldn't be solved, there was a very easy answer! Thank you so much for helping us implement an amazing CRM that is going to make our lives so much easier! Cons Nothing major, but I do wish we could integrate our current emailing marketing software with Sonas - that would really be the icing on the cake! But the updates that come out are great and they are always adding new features and listening to feedback. I can't really fault it! Switched from [Capsule](https://www.capterra.com/p/124041/Capsule/) Lack of functionality, not streamlined, clunky and not designed for events Review source Non-incentivized review: any software user can leave a review for any product listed on our site. All submitted reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication. Response from Vendor October 2, 2025 Thanks for your review Sarah! Glad Sonas is working out well for you. We've got exports to help you use your existing email marketing tools but it'll be even easier next year as we add integration options. KM Kirsty M. Manager Hospitality ### "Getting by with a little help form our Sonas friends!" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 March 9, 2025 Being a rural Australian farm venue we almost thought having a program such as Sonas was out of our reach or capacity. But \[sensitive content hidden\] was our hero and has been so patient and encouraging with our team as we learnt the very foreign ropes. Its been an amazing experience! Pros The onboarding process with \[sensitive content hidden\] was absolutely outstanding! Everyone needs a \[sensitive content hidden\] ! What we like most thus far is the ease of learning the software with great mentors. We have also particularly liked the email management aspect. Cons I would love an integration with accommodation management software for venues with large amounts of accomodation.

Pros Easy to use, great team available with excellent training. Mostly very clear for us at a venue to use and have all the information about a wedding in one place. Our couples enjoy being able to have an online system that is easy to keep all their wedding plans in one place. Cons Not being able to click through each event and having to go back to the calendar to get to the next event is a big issue for us at the venue. There also seem to be slight teething issue but these do seem to be dealt with when we bring them up with Holly or Tech. Switched from [BriteBiz](https://www.capterra.com/p/164329/BriteBiz/) To keep everything in one place such as table plans - guests lists etc Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort.
