Pros

“Excellent, flexible event management tool covering everything from selling a ranged of ticket types to management on the day with check-in functionality”

Andrew M.

Owner

“The customer service Brushfire provides is 2nd to none. If an issue pops up or a change needs to be made, they willingly complete the needed task.”

Russell D.

Asssistant Athletic Director

“Brushfire is an outstanding multi-use ticketing platform perfect for all sized events and loaded with great reporting, registration, and check in tools.”

Benjamin F.

Digital Product Owner

Cons

“Setup was a bit bulky for us and the mobile app was pretty buggy with intermittent issues here and there with loading things we needed.”

Matthew L.

Vice President of Operations

“Server performances not always excellent for European usage. If you want to organize events with paid tickets you’ll need to pay a subscription plan.”

Riccardo B.

Marketing Expert

“Eventbrite has no good customer service department, no refunds, no call backs, no easy way to set up events, no background or vetting vendors or event organizers, anyone can set up and sell tickets in this platform without vetting or any secured links. ”

Amanda R.

Owner

Cons

“The convenient fees while processing credit cards are the only complaints we get.”

Miriam D.

ADMINISTRATIVE ASSISTANT

“I never give a 5 out of 5 to any organizarion as I don't think any group is perfect.”

John M.

Producer

“It's not the most intuitive or attractive platform for first-time users on the backend.”
