We've been using Guest Manager for our events for the past 2 years and its been perfect, does everything we need it to do. would highly recommend
Thank you Derryn! FYI - We have released two great things in the past month: A new native Shopify POS plugin for ultra-fast ticket scanning and check-in, and support for Shopify's new Checkout Extensibility where Event Ticketing lists all the customers tickets on the Thank you and Order Status page (so the customers can download, transfer, complete required questions, change tickets to another date/time, or upgrade tickets) all without leaving your store.

Jeff at "Event Ticketing" has always been there for any support I needed...and fast. That includes listening to feature requests, and acting on them. Killer "ticketing app" and even better support.

We were able to sell a good amount of tickets, and were generally quite happy with the app. However, the level of service was not there. Jeff seems like the only person who can help but he is often busy and cannot/won't look at your issue for months (5 months and counting). For the money paid, I just couldn't justify it and looked elsewhere. There are other limitations to the app (they don't have email reminders, for instance, as well as not being able to check in customers with an Android phone, no easy way to export attendees, plus more). I had enough and have looked elsewhere.
Kat, it's a bummer we couldn't resolve things. The issue you refer to was a feature request that I didn't believe to be a good fit for the app. If I implemented everything customers asked for, then this app would be a mess. I focus on a few important things and doing them well. Speed, reliability, and ease of use. When I consider new features, I weigh four things: how many merchants need this and how many have asked for it, do I instinctively believe this to be a good value-add, how important is this compared to other fixes or features, and finally, is this a good customer to work with. Unfortunately your request missed all the marks. I apologize if I wasn't clear on that - it's my fault that I didn't set expectations appropriately. I do commend you on selling thousands of tickets with Event Ticketing. Regarding the limitations you mentioned: 1) Yes we have email reminders that can be automatically scheduled X hours before an event 2) Yes we support check in and scanning tickets on Android using our Shopify POS Plugin 3) Yes of course we support exporting attendees to a spreadsheet, with very good filtering: by ticket type, date ranges, name, checked in status, and a dozen more. Fun Wheelin', Jeff

This app has been a great asset for our business, making keep things organized in our back end so we can get more folks into our workshops. Without this, it would be much more chaotic for our 100+ events a month! Had an issues with refunding credits to a customer, Jeff figured out a fix and implemented it in less than 30 minutes.

Tickets lassen sich nicht herunterladen. Support reagiert nur mit Standard-Antworten.
Your review in English: Tickets cannot be downloaded. Support only responds with standard answers. Stephan, I needed some basic information to help diagnose your problem. An order number, an error message (if any), a screenshot, anything really so I can help you. "it doesn't work" does not allow me to help you. You probably forgot to set up a PDF design template for the tickets. Something simple like that. Breaks my heart to see something that could have been so easily resolved end up in a 1 star review. On the other hand, I do take these sorts of things to the drawing board all the time, "Why did they have this problem? Why couldn't the software prevent this issue in the first place?" So thanks for that, I guess. -Jeff

WOOOHOOO! Guest Manager rocked! As the Director of Pacific Bitcoin Festival, I was nervous to move away from TIXR who we worked with previously. TIXR treated us well and had really good client service. That said, we decided to move to Shopify with Guest Manager to lower fees and be better able to control the website experience, customer buying and upgrade experience, and the check-in experience. It was a scary decision to move away from a big dog, to what is (at this point) a lessen-known option. That said, we had NO problems at all with check in using Guest Manager. Everyone was amazed. Our staff and volunteers were able to easily download the app on their phone, or use an ipad. The search option works really well, making it easy to problem solve if someone forgot to bring their ticket. We had NO issues at check in. Everyone was thrilled. Thank you Guest Manager! [Additional details: This was a year two event in 2023. We had about 1200 people attend. Speakers. Sponsors. GA. VIP. Volunteers. Staff. We also had several smaller side events and used Guest Manager for all our events]

We run brewery tours and this simple, easy to use app is perfect way to run our ticketing. Support via a messaging facility is quick and always mega helpful. Recomended.

My experience with this app so far has been great. Cost is reasonable compared to other apps I researched and the app is relatively easy to use. Experienced a challenge while setting up recurring dates and Jeff was a great support - got back to me quickly and took the time to answer all of my questions. I would highly recommend this app to merchants looking to offer a well rounded event ticketing experience.
I'm glad we figured it out! Always here to help. Thank you for the great review. -Jeff

The Event Ticketing app has totally transformed how we sell tickets to events and has also streamlined our operational processes. The app is easy to use and the configuration options are endless. We have been able to fully customize the ticketing and event management process from end to end. The check-in iOS app is super easy to use and has improved our guest check-in experience also. The support team is responsive and helpful.

Product works perfectly. Not sure if it is Shopify or not, but getting it set up with Shopify is a tad confusing but the folks who own and operate this app are wonderful to assist. Buy with confidence.

Highly functional and easy to use. We host a variety of events that involve many different audiences. This app can serve all our needs. But, the thing that puts this app ahead of all others is the incredible support! Top tier!

10/10 Highly Recommend! We had been using 3rd party ticketing services that were outside our website. Our goal was to sell our own tickets to drive website traffic. Guest Manager allowed for us to do this. We are small non-profit that has a large gala in December we looked like pro's thanks to their ticketing and scanners. I love that we could custom design our tickets and add to apple wallet. Can't wait until our next event!

We manage events and sell tickets on shopify and were looking for a good way to handle check in as well as attendee management. We checked out other apps and previously used some event software designed just for event management. We found limitations with the original event software so we moved to Shopify and installed Event Ticketing. We're very happy with it and the support has been fantastic! There are so many great features that make running our events easier. The check in actions are great too as it allows us to take photos or know if a customer has items to pickup at check in. The support has been great when we've had questions and they even added some functionality that makes things easier. The check in app that you use on iOS devices makes check in and looking up attendees quick and easy. It's helped speed up the check in time for events. There are many more things I could mention, the Event Ticketing app is very full featured and has so many cool things you can do. I'd highly recommend it.

We use the event ticketing app to sell and issue tickets for our events at our u-pick flower farm. After working with multiple other ticket platforms we have found this to be the best solution all round. It's cost effective, offers lots of customizable features, and their customer service is top notch. We also use the Guest Manager app for checking in guests using iphones and ipads. We are looking forward to using these two platforms in the future as we continue to expand.

This app has been amazing so far and the support team has been one of the best I have worked with so far. They even added some extra features for events like ours. I will update this review once we have run the event but so far they have been amazing to work with and the app works great in Shopify. If you are looking for an event app this is the one to use!
