dlvr.it vs. Opendate

One thing you need to watch is if your source of content puts out 50 articles a week, it may be too much to automate. You can adjust how many posts get shared per day and there's a limit on the free account. I recommend choosing content sources that publish no more than 5 times a week.

We migrated from another ticketing company and Prism. Opendate combined the best of both and the data we unlocked by those two systems has helped guide our marketing efforts and increased our revenue per show. We have excellent customization on the ticketing which helps us better understand the financials of each show. It's the first time our entire team (talent, marketing, production and finance) all are on one system that works for each of us. The product can improve in some of its more advanced functionality such as more robust permissioning and event-level customization

• Web based with secure login
• Connects to most social media platforms

Incentivized

• Manages our calendar clearly
• Increased revenue
• Centralizes all our processes

• Support of the product was a bit hit and miss. Some of the functionality I enjoyed that made me sign up in the first place like the ability to repost a tweet by clicking on it was taken away suddenly with no explanation. Although it was sort of replaced with EverQueue.
• The interface was glitchy at times especially around creating categories and timings for bulk post scheduling. Eventually worked around it to make it work for me.
• No phone app was a major disappointment as I find lots of stuff to post from my mobile.

Incentivized

• Seated shows could have additional functionality
• Additional permission options
• Single sign on

Problems are quickly worked out with their support. I haven't had any issues except in the initial setup, and their support folks walked me through it.

Buffer and Dlvr.it don't compare as apples to apples, but there are areas where one is better than the other. For price and automating social media posts, Dlvr.it is better, but for content curation I've found Buffer to be easier.

The customer support we have received from Opendate is unmatched. We have multiple points of contact and when we make suggestions they are frequently implemented in quick order. The pricing is competitive and the flexibility we have in the product is great. Most importantly, rather than using 3 or 4 different systems our entire venue is ran out of Opendate

• WASTE OF MONEY as they did literally NOTHING.

• Increased our revenue per show by centralizing our upgrades on one platform and better understanding our buyers
