Read full review Cons Although the registration component is fully customizable, the website itself could be more customizable. It is pretty restrictive on what you can put where.

Viator says that other platforms allow this but Xola is still lagging on this one. Some minor tweaks allow the integrated tipping app to append a more customized message. Really trying hard to find something else to say because Xola does everything really well. Read full review Support Rating Great customer service.

Read full review Alternatives Considered The EventLeaf website made me feel that their product/service was more about my event needs and less about hyping themselves. I found the timely and helpful support from EventLeaf wonderful. The team that presented the live demo were very helpful, answered what might have seemed like dumb questions from me (being new at this) with respect and helpfulness. The ability to customize pricing to the scope and needs of the event we were planning was great

Many times I have found Xola to be able to expedite a customer issue or confusion with software integration or support for their software in a way that saves $$$ because my reservationists can resolve the issue or their confusion and quickly get back to work.
