Cons

“Eventbrite charges fees for paid tickets which can add to overhead costs. When compared to alternative platforms and fees it is a bit on the pricier side.”

Marketing Manager

“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.”

“Eventbrite is convenient for finding events and buying tickets, but the high fees and weak customer support seriously hurt the overall experience.”

Cons

“The customer service reps seem to not know the platform very well, or will answer questions and tell you that you can or can not do something but forget to tell you what steps to take to do it, lastly the chat customer service reps will not provide any help to get you through the modules and tell you that you need to watch the videos and take the test or that you should email with any questions that you have.”
