Exec Director of Events, Global Publicity Entertainment Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Zkipster is User-Friendly and Flexible" December 17, 2024 4.0 I think Zkipster is really simple to use. I wish though that you didn't have to upload different list for different groups of people and that you could upload one list and have it designate the different groups based on your affiliation. Pros I love how user friendly it is and that you can access it anywhere on your phone. I also love that multiple people can work on it at the same time and it's easy to train staff on. Cons The fact that you can't do large theater seating by dragging and dropping. I wish Zkipster would also upload existing theaters that many groups use into their system instead of having to build theaters as a user. Switched from [Event Rental Systems](https://www.capterra.com/p/181193/Event-Rental-Systems/) Actually the system we switched from is not listed. It's called Event Builder and was built by Universal Studios. However, it was deemed by our new \[sensitive content hidden\] as unsecure. Review Source Response from zkipster January 23, 2025 Hi Jade, thank you for taking the time to leave a review. It's great to hear that you and your team are finding zkipster so easy to use.

Manager, Advancement Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Manager, Advancement " December 19, 2024 4.0 Overall zkipster has made our life soooooo much easier and I love the platform. There are just a few updates I wish you’d make. Pros Creating forms for guests to fill out and having automated confirmations sent are two things I like most. Cons I wish you could customize forms more, even just simple text/color options and I always have issues when it comes to couples. Often the salutation is Dear x and y but there isn’t a way to do it unless you add both names to the first name field. Switched from [Cvent Event Management](https://www.capterra.com/p/26318/Cvent-Event-Management/) There were a lot of features we wanted that it didn’t meet Review Source Response from zkipster January 23, 2025 Lauren, thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We love that you love the zkipster platform! We are always looking for ways to improve, so we'll take your helpful feedback about form customization into our roadmap planning for future product developments - thank you. We're grateful that you made the switch to zkipster. AJ Abby J. Director of Special Events Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Non-profit use of Zkipster" December 13, 2024 5.0 I have been so happy using zkipster, it has provided an easy interaction for a gala with 500 people or quick check-in for an intimate event of 30 people. The support team are very helpful and the resources are always great tool to access. Pros I appreciate how user friendly Zkipster is and that it is an easy learning curve. Once you understand and get used to the interface, it makes for seamless event support. Cons Zkipster has addressed most of my issues and resolved them as they continue develop. My ongoing feature that can be a hurdle is the relationships vs. plus ones and how to best use those with seating, RSVP responses etc. I know the team is working on bettering those to integrate together. Alternatives considered [Whova](https://www.capterra.com/p/149712/Whova/) Reason for choosing zkipster Seating, check-in, multiple floor plans, and campaign features. Switched from [Microsoft Outlook](https://www.capterra.com/p/227138/Microsoft-Outlook/) Switched from TopTablePlanner. Not an option in the drop down. Needed a intuitive seating platform that could respond with live changes. Review Source Response from zkipster January 23, 2025 Hi Abby - we're so happy that you're so happy using zkipster! It's great to hear that it makes managing your events both large and small so seamless, and that our support team and resources are helpful.

SEA Financial Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "zkipster saves lives and builds community" December 13, 2024 5.0 The software itself is brilliant, but the people is what makes it instrumental for me and my firm. The concept of being an events person means you love to engage with people. The folks at zkipster are always there to guide and help me. They truly are the best. Nothing is more painful than launching a software and having no one to rely on as a resource. They are there every single step of the way within minutes to help me. Pros I onboarded zkipster to my new firm. It is a life saver for automating event campaigns and tracking capabilities. I cannot imagine hosting an event without it. Cons I would love to have zkipster integrate a CRM add on. This will help us build out our rolodex of VIP clients and easily pull the relevant data. Alternatives considered [Cvent Event Management](https://www.capterra.com/p/26318/Cvent-Event-Management/) Reason for choosing zkipster cost and ease of use. overall functionality is supreme.

Managing Director Events Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "great, user-friendly platform" December 13, 2024 5.0 Overall, it's positive and my go-to platform for FOH event management. Pros I love the user-friendliness that allows for a sense of ease when building campaigns. The team is also reachable and answers questions when support is needed. Cons It has a few limitations in design and customization that I would like to see more of.

Communications Director Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Flexible, professional RSVP solutions." December 16, 2024 4.0 I appreciate zkipster as an event-promotion and management tool. Their support team is helpful when I need to navigate a quirky invitation element or I just need to adapt to an evolution of the user interface. Pros I like the professional appearance of our invitations and the "add to calendar" functions. Cons We occasionally experience issues with Zkipster messages landing in "unfocused" inboxes or spam/junk folders. Switched from [Eventbrite](https://www.capterra.com/p/114949/Eventbrite/) I did not drive that switch, but we did like the look and branding potential with zkipster. Review Source Response from zkipster January 23, 2025 Thank you for the zkipster appreciation Mike, especially for our support team! It's great that you're able to create professional invitations to promote your events, but we are sorry that you've experienced some issues with email delivery. A member of the team will contact you directly to see if we can help with this. AW Ariel W. Senior Event Producer Events Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Learning Something New Every Event!" September 26, 2025 5.0 Pros I like the ease of functionality and ability to learn new things within the system. \[sensitive content hidden\] , our account manager, is always so helpful in walking me through capabilities I may need for an upcoming event. Cons I wish there was a way to take paid transactions for events. It's a great platform and I wish it could expand past just RSVP for events.

December 16, 2024 4.0 I have mainly utilised zkipster to complete the task of allocating seating for restaurant diners to a custom seating plan. Dining bookings come with stadium seating for events and being able to efficiently allocate seating accurately and meeting any requirements has made my life much easier! Pros The handy features that shave valuable time off of completing tasks such as seating, creating custom floor plans, exporting guest lists. Cons A bit of clunkiness with the seating plans. It's not quite designed for stadium/rowed theatre seating. Review Source Response from zkipster January 23, 2025 Thank you for your review John - we're really pleased that zkipster has made your life easier by saving time and making your event management processes more efficient.

Donor Engagement Manager Arts and Crafts Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great product for seating & guest management - email could use a makeover" December 17, 2024 4.0 Zkipster has improved our overall guest communication, check-in, and seating process. As a small organization with limited staff bandwidth, it is a critical part of our annual engagement. Pros Great for guest management - especially seated dinners! Cons Email interface - it is clunky and has limited design capabilities. Review Source Response from zkipster January 23, 2025 Harper, thank you so much for your review.

Event coordinator Arts and Crafts Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Amazing product" December 13, 2024 5.0 Pros It's straightforward, user friendly, perfect for our needs Cons Maybe the option of having to choose automatically if a client has a +1 and not being able to manage that on a client by client basis Review Source Response from zkipster January 23, 2025 Laura, thank you so much for your review - we're really proud that you think zkipster is an 'amazing product' and that it's 'perfect for your needs'.

Specialist Entertainment Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Makes Event Planning and Execution Easier" December 17, 2024 4.0 Overall my experience has been good. Check in has been a breeze for the most part. Pros The ability to create face sheets in alphabetical order for our events Cons We've had issues accessing some of our archival photos for the face sheets. Review Source Response from zkipster January 23, 2025 Hi Tanya, thank you for your review.

Senior Protocol Assistant Government Relations Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Excellent product. Makes my work life easier!" August 11, 2023 5.0 My job would be much harder without Zkipster. Pros It is a great product for event managers. It is like it was custom made for my work needs. Invitations are easy to draft, copy and amend. Zkipster thinks about all the different scenarios when planning an event and has an answer for almost each of them. The product team also thinks ahead and every new feature released is in-line with all the modern technology. Cons I am missing the database aspect of it, but I know the product team are working on something that will be similar to having a database of contacts within Zkipster. The use of more logos in the invitation would be useful. More fonts and highlight features would be nice. Review Source Response from zkipster August 18, 2023 Natalia, we were delighted to receive such positive feedback - thank you. It's our aim to make life easier for busy event managers so it's great to hear that we're succeeding, and that you find zkipster to be an 'excellent product'.

Thank you again for taking the time to leave us a review, and for choosing zkipster to power your events. RC Raymond C. Manager, Operations Planning and Support Hospitality Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Guestlist Management with Ease" June 10, 2022 5.0 Excellent customer service and support, the support team, especially \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] had been very helpful. He also helped us think of using creative way to manage guestlist, a big salute to him! Pros Our company hosts gala dinner for a car event annually. The guestlist and invitation was always a headache for the event team. Especially, we still post handwritten invitations to remind elegant, and this added an additional layer of challenge to guestlist management. Since the introduction of Zkipster, the team no longer need to ask IT department to assist them to setup or modify email template, they can customize the invitation email according to the theme of the gala dinner. The form at the invitation list also record guests' dinning preferences, giving the banquet team a huge help. The posting of handwritten invitations is no longer a guessing game, where all guest responses are tracked properly and can be reviewed by user with proper right. We cannot imagine to go back to the old days without Zkipster! Cons 1\. more customized fields 2. fonttype management is messy (unnecessary hashtags were used in html, causing inconsistence formats) Review Source Response from zkipster June 21, 2022 Raymond, thank you for taking the time to review zkipster. We highly appreciate your detailed feedback! We very happy that our amazing team could help you out, and are always improving our product so we've taken your comments into your roadmap planning. Thank you for choosing zkipster! AK Ayaka K. Coordinator Luxury Goods & Jewelry Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Thanks to Zkipster the event went well!" June 15, 2023 5.0 The system was very smooth and check-in went without a hitch! The support system was also very good and any questions we had were answered immediately, so overall the system was smooth to use! Thank you very much! Pros The simple UI allowed even those unfamiliar with the system to use it immediately. Also, the loading speed was very fast. Cons ・I uploaded the check-in guest lists to skipster, but it was not reflected, once I logged out and logged in, it was reflected, so I want it to be reflected without logging in and logging out.・I want to be able to edit the "type here" of the form. Review Source Response from zkipster June 21, 2023 Ayaka, thank you so much for your review. Congratulations on your successful event - we're proud to have played a part in it, and pleased that the zkipster system ran smoothly for you and was easy to use. We're sorry to hear that your guest list uploads aren't reflected immediately.

However if the issue persists please don't hesitate to contact our Support team, who will be happy to help as always. Thank you for sharing your feedback about the RSVP form. Currently the 'type here' text isn't customizable, but this has been requested by other customers and shared with the Product team for future improvements, so watch this space! NW Noah W. Social Secretary Government Administration Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Zkipster with Embassy of France" March 5, 2024 4.0 Pros Zkipster is a great tool for managing high-level events for our Embassy Cons The price is extreme, and limited to sharing with teams Review Source Response from zkipster March 6, 2024 Hi Noah, thank you for taking the time to leave us a review.

August 2, 2022 5.0 Pros How effective it is to manage complex events in a single platform Cons Language selection...so users that are not fluent in english can still access the platform and have an understanding of all the different settings. Review Source Response from zkipster August 3, 2022 Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review Rosella - we're really pleased to hear that zkipster is helping you manage your events more effectively.

VR Verified Reviewer Event Coordinator Real Estate Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "All the basics" September 14, 2018 5.0 Good experience overall! It does what it needs to do. Pros This software is very user friendly. I love that multiple users can be on it at once. It's super mobile friendly, works great on laptop or PC, and works on iPads! All in all, it's basic and gets the job done. Cons You have to be connected to GOOD WiFi. If not, it will be very slow and bug out on you. I recommend either a personal hotspot or company wifi. I also wish it were integrated with either floor-plan software or event details. Review Source Response from zkipster September 17, 2018 Thank you very much for your kind review! A good WiFi is indeed important, however, you can also use our offline mode and operate your guest lists from your local devices. Use this as backup in case of a weak internet signal. There is a seating plan integration for our professional subscribers/users which can be activated online and/or via our support team. KN Kate N. Executive Assistant Philanthropy Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Wouldn't use anything else" August 7, 2023 5.0 We love it! Pros This product is so easy to use for event registration. They make it fast, simple, and it beats the paper and pen we were using for so many years! Cons Uploading guest lists should have easier technology. Review Source Response from zkipster August 14, 2023 Thank you for taking the time to leave a review Kate. We're so proud that you love zkipster and 'wouldn't use anything else' to power your events. We've passed on your comment about uploading guest lists to factor into our roadmap planning: please keep sharing your feedback and feature suggestions with the team so we can continue to improve. Thank you for choosing zkipster! KO Kyla O. Senior Events Manager Arts and Crafts Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "So simple, yet so effective. Hard to believe how we coped without it before. " July 10, 2017 5.0 It made our check-in process much smoother and created a much more professional and calm atmosphere at the event. It also helped us to keep track of changing table numbers for dinner, for which the sincing element was vital. Pros It's very simple to use - both uploading the data before an event, and also at the event itself. The fact that all tablets in use sinc together is it's best feature. As the person in charge of the events we've used it at, I'd taken time to really get to know the programme beforehand, but we found it only took about 15 minutes to brief the team registering guests on the night, for them to completely understand it. Every single one of them said it was 100% easily to register guests using Zkipster rather than the usual paper guest lists that they're used to. Cons I haven't tried the table planning aspect yet as I still believe in a stressful environment before a big dinner, when guests are cancelling, not showing up, or just turning up, and table plans need to be quickly amended, actually having paper versions in front of me are easier to deal with. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Volunteer Manager Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "It efficiently helped us manage check in and table seating's for our gala event " February 15, 2018 4.0 Made the events so much easier for us! Pros I love that it made check in alphabetically and easy! You could also add a picture of the guest as well to help for verification! It made design the table layout much easier as well! Cons Sometimes on a mobile device it was difficult to zoom in and out on the table seating's, which made it difficult if you were trying to help a guest in the moment. It added some time on. Review Source Response from zkipster February 16, 2018 Thank you for the kind review. We'll pass the feedback on to our design team to consider bigger font sizes and zooming options. jD john D. COO Broadcast Media Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Makes My Life Easier" September 23, 2016 5.0 We throw many events, and use Zkipster for all of them. Fantastic app for events; makes running a door easy; makes knowing who showed up - and when - simple; makes pre- and post-event follow up a breeze. I know the team at Zkipkster pretty well.

Trust me: These are the kinds of people you want building and constantly improving your event software. They are awesome. Use the app. You'll see.
