Pros

“It is the one that consistently comes out on top, but it seems it's moving more and more to %fee option which is what we were avoiding with competitors. ”

Krista P.

CFO

“Once it's working it is a pretty stable product, and works well on the user side. Once it's set it's mostly set it and forget it.”

Krista P.

CFO

“Some limited capabilities with reports.”

Kenna K.

Guest Relations and Digital Media Systems Lead

Pros

“The onboarding process was very seamless, quick and the informative received regarding marketing options within the system was very helpful in guiding our team moving forward.”

Rhett B.

Owner

“The interface is very intuitive, and works well on my laptop or phone, though I prefer the larger screen view.”

Mindy S.

Executive Director

“Flexibility to manage bookings, including the ability to manually adjust ticket prices or comp tickets, makes it much less rigid than other systems.”

Rowena B.

Business Operations Director

Cons

“I can't risk the key element of my booking system failing so had to pull the plug on Checkfront and return to my previous provider.”

Mark H.

Director

“Customer support wasn't great (aside from having to wait til the end of the day (GMT) before they we're available) with workarounds for bugs being the order of the day.”

Mark H.

Director

“For instance, if you used Square instead of Stripe, customer were not able to book directly from the Google search results page.”

Derek J.

Owner

Cons

“It is clear that since their $6 million Series A funding, TripWorks has prioritized "feature bloat" and rapid scaling over the stability required to run a real business. If you value your data security, your accounting accuracy, and your sanity on a busy Saturday, look elsewhere.”

Pilot

“These glitches led to total data blackouts, broken resource management tools, and massive overbooking issues because the system couldn't accurately communicate with OTAs like Viator and GetYourGuide.”

jeff S.

Pilot

“It is clear that following their $6 million Series A funding, TripWorks prioritized rapid scaling and feature bloat over the core stability required to run a business. Once you are no longer a growth metric for their investors, the support and stability disappear.”
