Overall Satisfaction with Eventbrite

We use Eventbrite currently to manage ticketing for private events. Previously, I used it to manage ticketing for public events. No matter the use-case, Eventbrite streamlined the process of managing attendees and most importantly, allowed for easy followup after the events. In cases where we charged for the events, the payment process was seamless each and every time.
  • Maintains constant counts of attendees
  • Allows for easy payment acceptance
  • Allows for fast post-event follow up and helps build out your email marketing list for future events
  • Lower fees would always be nice :)
  • Better marketing tools to get the word out about events (similar to a meetup)
  • Increased ability to market post event
  • Made it easy to charge for events
  • Meetup
The main reason to use Eventbrite as opposed to Meetup is the access to the post-event mailing list. Meetup only gives you individuals' first names with no ability to follow up directly outside of the platform. With Eventbrite, we control the data and contact info of those who attended our events, allowing us to target them for future offerings.
When it comes to private events, Eventbrite is definitely the best tool to manage attendance. If your goal is to get a massive audience, Eventbrite doesn't really help on the marketing side that much.
