Overall Satisfaction with Eventbrite

I organize events for various organizations.we organized a fund raising diner for our group and it was a donation based event with limited seating so the price of the event was free. Eventbrite loaded us up with false information making the event look full, this caused the event to be a failure. I will never use them again.

Pros

  • Ease of use

Cons

  • Accurate statistics
  • Proper email notification of purchases
  • Accurate counts
  • Accurate list of attendees
  • Information I can rely on.
  • Our expenses were higher than needed due to inaccurate reporting
  • Only the final report, that came after the day of the event was accurate
  • Eventbrite loaded the list with false emails making the event look full
If you don’t get good information out, any usability rating is useless. The event was a fund raiser and accurate information is important. I found after the fact that Eventbrite would do this to groups they disagree with.
I am searching for a new vendor.

No

Did implementation of Eventbrite go as expected?

No

Would you buy Eventbrite again?

No

I am rating this service as low as possible. We were planning a spaghetti dinner and needed the information for buying decisions. The email counts did not line up with the reported counts. I have the spreadsheets From Eventbrite as we moved through the process. There were many numeric swings, on was even less than the previous download. I also received reservations after the event was showing sold out.
