Pros

The majority of this software is super user friendly, as someone who does not credit herself to be a whiz at technology. The customer service is prompt and friendly.
Great experience overall and I will be continuing to use Showpass for my events. So many user friendly features, great support from customer service.
Customer service has been amazing and we have really enjoyed the ease of use and the final product. Thanks for your hard work ShowPass team.

Pros

Love how easy it is to set up an event and collect registrations. Our team really loves the ease of use.
Great for small businesses. Not too costly which is a great help & makes it easy to promote on our own website.
I enjoy the event splash page which personalizes your event. Sparxo's customer service is also awesome and they are very responsive if you have any questions.

Cons

Some of the details that needed to be entered, was afraid I might miss something.
I haven't found anything that I've disliked currently as the updates recently have changed any pain points.
There was a bit of a delay in the service from Showpass setting up all our features.

Cons

The inability to link social media platforms and lack of scalable fees similar to Sparxo's fees is a struggle.
Collaboration feature failure in the case of the second event that I used (a clone of the first event). Leading to lost payments.
Not being able to import qr-codes from other softwares. That is the One thing I'm missing, since I can't combine the softwares I'm using.
