We have been with ThunderTix for over a decade and we wouldn't think of even considering going anywhere else. From the beginning ThunderTix always gave us the best return on investment. The system is so easy to use from both the managing side as well as from the consumer side. Their customer service is "top notch"! In the unlikely event you encounter issues with the system, they are extremely quick to respond to emails and calls. Our theatre would highly recommend their service to anyone.

Pros

Customer Service. Lost costs. Openly request ideas from their clients to improve the system. Extremely easy to use.

Cons

None at the present time.

Really positive. I have tried similar services and this platform is a lot more comprehensive, customizable, and helpful for both user and customers.

Pros

The ease with which I can setup and manage multiple events. For the most part, any feature I want is customizable which is incredibly helpful for our small organization.

Cons

I would like to see the "required verification" to be more customizable. I use this as a liability waiver for our events and sometimes I need the language to be different for one event than the others. To my knowledge, this section located in "checkout options" has limited customizability.

I had thundertix do event seating for my nutcracker ballet . You seriously can not talk to anyone if you have a problem . I had to take it off my website because so many people called me having trouble actually completing purchases . I asked thundertix to look into it and they kept saying that things were working out just fine . I have actual emails , voicemails and video footage of how it really didn't work . They also would not give me a refund for the time I actually couldn't use it . I would be happy to show anyone this .

Pros

Response from Thunder Data Systems

Thank you for your review. We pride ourselves on our customer support, and I am sorry that you felt this was not the case. We offer support by email for our first two tiers (included with your plan), while other tiers additionally include phone support, which we extended to you gratis.

I was relieved to see that you virtually sold out all of your Nutcracker performances, although an upgrade to our reserved seating created some challenges selling a handful of seats for a short period of time.

We would appreciate the opportunity to demonstrate our commitment to you, whether it be through the credit we offered previously, or through another course of action. I would happily continue personal telephone support. Let us know how we can help!

I started at our organization as the Marketing Director; we had no website and were selling paper tickets. I had a great experience with Thundertix at a theater in Endicott, New York 16-18 years ago, so when I saw the need here, Thundertix was the best fit. I would highly recommend Thundertix for any size organization; so flexible and easy to use, and tech support is great. Thundertix is the best!

Pros

Thundertix seems to anticipate what producers need before we know we need it. Shortcuts and streamlined operations make it so easy to sell, manage and report ticket transactions. Questions are answered quickly by Support, and requests for options are always taken into consideration - often already available.

Cons

I can't think of anything at all. Thundertix is pretty great.

Response from Thunder Data Systems

As much as we'd like to take full credit for anticipating needs, I'll admit that the majority of our ideas come from clients just like you who share their desires and goals via our feature request forum or through simple discussions. We're indebted to all of you for helping us make ThunderTix the best platform for events.

I'd like extend a personal thank you for rejoining ThunderTix after using us so long ago! If you were with us 18 years ago, then by golly, you were there at the very start of our existence. How far we've come together!

Cheers to our next 18 years!

At first I was intimidated. As time went on, it got very easy. I haven't called customer service in a long time, but the few times I did they were very responsive and easy to talk to.

Pros

I run a large, multi-day music festival. ThunderTix is great with every aspect of ticketing. I track orders easily, upgrade or exchange tickets easily, and can really help people because ThunderTix is easy to understand on my end. I am really appreciative of this system. I get offers to switch all the time, but I never will.

Cons

There are no cons. At first I thought I would never be able to figure it all out, but over a short amount of time I'm fairly confident.

Response from Thunder Data Systems

Everything has a “flip side”. Right has left, up has down, and pros have cons.

Our organization has been selling tickets for nearly 18 years and during the first 17 we used software that was extremely affordable but didn't do everything we needed. When we moved to ThunderTix we undertook a greater expense it's true, but we also saw an accompanying increase in sales that we know has been largely fueled by our use of ThunderTix. To me it has been an expense that was worth the investment.

Pros

There are several positives. But for the me the best is the ease of use for the patron. It is simple and intuitive. We moved to ThunderTix at the start of our 2024 Season and saw a huge uptick in ticket sales. There were many factors in this improvement, but it has to be said that one contributor was certainly our move to ThunderTix which made our reservation process so much simpler for our patrons.

Cons

I wish I had the ability to obtain reports of an entire run of a production in a Performance Summary that compared each performance from one production in one document. That said, another great thing about ThunderTix is the ability to submit feature requests and they have always proven to be willing to accept requests to take a look at features that you request.

Response from Thunder Data Systems

Feature request noted, JaceSon! I would love to hear from you with more information about your idea, and we'll see if we can make it come to fruition.

As for helping you grow, we're thrilled to hear it. We've always said, "We grow when our clients do!" You are one part of our overall tremendous growth, and we appreciate you right back!

ThunderTix has been very easy to use and I really enjoy the reports you can pull out of there too. It keeps a lot of data for you and you can look at your customer base and see how many people have been coming to your shows, etc. We have been using it for about two years now and I really enjoy the way the database works. It helps make my life a lot easier.

Pros

ThunderTix has A LOT of flexibility about what you do or do not want to post on their site. It's very customizable depending on what your needs are. You can send pre-concert or post-concert emails as well as surveys.

Cons

Took me a little bit to learn how to use the menus.

Response from Thunder Data Systems

"ThunderTix is awesome!" Monica, that title for your 5-star review caught our eye, and we immediately shared it with the team. They loved that you appreciated the flexibility and customizable options we have. Should you think of other ideas, we're eater to learn more!

We've been with them for over 10 years now and the user experience and customer service continue to be exemplary, with requested features added regularly. We recommend ThunderTix to everyone!

Pros

Cons

It's not possible to rename coupon codes - we have to create new ones, which makes keeping track of them all unwieldy.

Overall, working with ThunderTix was super easy, and I'm definitely planning on using it for future events. My Off-Broadway play, Witchland, ran for a few weeks, and I was able to manage the entire ticketing sales and process, and allocation, seamlessly.

Pros

ThunderTix made the daunting task of managing tickets for my stage production super easy. They helped me set up the site, and once up and running it was very easy to manage and navigate.

Cons

No real cons with the system - there is a small learning curve initially, then it's smooth sailing.

Rick, I'm glad you found your way to ThunderTix, and even happier you found it easy to use.

We think free trials are an important part of any organization's research. Sitting through demos can be tedious, but worse, you often don't get a real-world view of how it works for you.

Overall our experience with Thunder Tix has been very positive and I would recommend it to any business wanting flexible scheduling and ticketing.

Pros

When looking for a ticketing program for our small non-profit performing arts company we needed one that was uncomplicated to set up, user friendly for our patrons and affordable for our non-profit to use. One great feature since we only set up 2-3 events per year is that we can toggle between maintenance and reserved seating when not is use for a really reasonable monthly fee. Their customer service is excellent and very responsive and patient for every question I have had for them. The reports are also very comprehensive during and at the end of an event.

Cons

You are restricted to just a couple credit card processors.

Pros

Customer support is AMAZING!!! I love being able to see a list of all attendees in real-time, including when their barcode has been scanned. Patron database is top-notch and helpful, ordering tickets online is simple and easy for patrons.

Cons

[sensitive content hidden] and her team have always been very fair to deal with. You talk to real people which is very nice and they must treat their employees well as we've been working with the same people for many years. I like to work with company's that take care of their customers as well as their staff.

Pros

ThunderTix is easy to navigate from the admin/selling side and our customers find it easy to use to purchase tickets.

Cons

Not really a con, but they're always working to improve the system and take input from users like us directly. There's always features we'd love to have, and lucky they're working on bringing those to reality. I'm just impatient and wish we could have it all now, but as a whole it's a good system.

Response from Thunder Data Systems

Brian, your comments raised something we rarely discuss -- namely, our colleagues love their roles here! We have staff that have been with us for 19 years, and our senior engineers are celebrating nearly a decade with us -- virtually unheard of today.

That kind of longevity translates to a full understanding of the people we serve, which serves as a catalyst for new ideas, better interfaces, and improved performance. (Yet, we are all as impatient as you with what we WANT to do versus what we have time to accomplish!)

Thank you for your kind words which allows me to celebrate the unsung heroes of ThunderTix -- our staff!

The program, for the money, delivers a fantastic product. It is dependable and most of what we want to do with it is available. Also, it is always improving with regular updates that make it even more robust and user-friendly.

Pros

As a new employee, I appreciated that, since the previous employee had already loaded it with events, I was up and running from day 1. I could navigate to what I needed and I could sell tickets without too much training. I haven't preloaded and posted a whole season of events yet, but I have added additional performances to existing shows and I've added the occasional event. Once you've done it, it is a fairly simple process.

Also, in the short amount of time that I have been using Thundertix I have seen multiple updates and improvements made to the software that were either beneficial for me or they were changes that I could see would be helpful to someone in a slightly different business or industry. The software seems to always be improving.

Cons

I don't like the coupon and discount limitations. For example, we can't offer a percent off the entire transaction, without manually discounting the purchase. Also, I am frustrated that I can't just call someone who knows the software well. The FAQ's are extensive, but if you aren't familiar with the vocabulary used within the system, you spend a lot of time trying to figure out what words to use for a successful search.

Response from Thunder Data Systems

Hi Kirsten!

Thanks for your great feedback about how easy it was to get started with ThunderTix!

I wanted to let you know that you can absolutely create a coupon to offer a percent off the entire transaction. Next time you create a coupon, look for the option that says, Select the manner in which your customers should use the coupon and choose, "Limit Usage to Once per Order". We also have a Coupons Video Tutorial that you might find helpful here:

https://www.thundertix.com/videos/create-event-coupons/

Our support team is incredibly knowledgable with every facet of the platform, so if you ever have questions, don't hesitate to reach out to us to save time searching through the public support forum. We also offer an option for phone support as an annual add-on to any service plan, if interested.

Much more effective Reporting, ability to create own custom reports. REALLY appreciated being put on Maintenance Mode during pandemic. We get no assistance, and rely completely on seat sales. This allowed us to keep alive.

Pros

Setup and use is fairly intuitive, still need to refer to manual. Help upgraded, now most useful. Small changes to existing business processes, enabled streamlining and much more flexibility. Reporting much faster and more effective. Responsive to customer requests. VERY effective pivot to cope with Covid reality - thank you!

Cons

There are a few quirks, like the combination of Public Tickets in a Private event. And others. Read the manual, search the Help. You are most responsive to customer requests, so any issues are quickly and satisfactorily resolved.

Reasons for Switching to ThunderTix

Customer recommendation.

Response from Thunder Data Systems

I appreciate your feedback, Glynnis, especially with our response to Covid. Interestingly, some of those features we built to meet that challenge will stick around like timed seating and bulk refunds to a gift card, because our clients love them. (On the other hand, I hope that automated social distancing won't be necessary in the very near future!)

When I read "public tickets for private events", even I was taken aback! I then realized that for some of our clients, they want to set up an entire event but hide it from view by making the event private. So, the concept is definitely confusing but appreciated by those who use it.

I'm thrilled to hear you love our pricing. Most of our clients love that they can completely defray the cost of ticketing with a very small fee of under $1 which positively cannot be beat.

Thank you for sharing your feedback!

ThunderTix is critical to our venue. Selling seats that our customers get to choose ahead of time is vital. Guests don’t want to drive a long way and not have a seat that works for them. The customer support is superior.

Pros

We have music shows each Saturday from October through April and without ThunderTix we wouldn’t be able to do presale of seats. It is easy to use and any time I can’t figure something out or have an issue the support is fast, friendly, and easy to access. I wouldn’t change companies because I don’t think you can get better support anywhere else.

Cons

The software is easy to use. I would like to be able to sell product a little easier and set up a menu for our food sales -but as ticketing software it is top notch.

Response from Thunder Data Systems

We believe that prompt, insightful, and courteous support is essential to our clients. Like you, we would never think of leaving a service that provides the same level of service to which we strive to provide.

I have really appreciated your quick customer service.A lot of the problems could have been solved much quicker if Thundertix had revealed that your integration system with websites doesn't really work. It took much too long for Thundertix to communicate this and we lost many sales. I suggest you do not offer this option as it was a selling feature for me and I was very disappointed with is not working for several months and Thundertix not providing solutions and instead saying it must be the customers fault; until 6 months later after several emails Thundertix finally communicated that the integration doesn't work well and we should switch to being directed to Thundertix site for ticket sales. Your quick responses are great. I really like all the other services you provide. Easy to use.

Pros

Ticketing, coupon codes, analytics, are what I use most in this software and have been an essential part of what has helped out business to grow and be successful so far. Customer service tickets is an essential software service.

Cons

It was really important to me for the software to integrate into our website. This was a selling feature for me. It caused an enormous amount of troubles and problems for much too long. We switched to the customer being directed to the Thundertix site for ticketing, which is smooth and works well now and solved months of problems and lost sales.

We are an all-volunteer community theater. Thundertix allows us to concentrate on the performance instead of having to constantly worry about the back office functions. The software made keeping track of advance sales, season tickets and reservations very simple.

Pros

The ability to sell tickets to a performance in a variety of ways... season subscriptions, flex passes, gift certificates, multiple price points, discount coupons, "sections of the house".

Cons

The biggest challenge to us was that tickets sold "at the venue" were still charged the full rate, even when the customer paid cash. That caused us to not use the software at point of sale, and so our reporting was never clean.

Response from Thunder Data Systems

Phil, I can tell that you are a professional in the theatre space, because your needs are exactly why we've tailored our platform for the arts.

Did you know that you can add a fee specific for those patrons arriving at the box office that might be a bit higher than if they self-serve online? Processing orders online and at the box office in the system helps conserve all date around your patrons in one place (gift cards, concession sales, and donations).

We provide this feature to help you encourage customers to purchase ahead. This helps save box office staff time, ushers them into the door quickly (with opportunities for food and beverage upsells), and helps you collect revenues in advance. Please consider a slightly differentiated fee.

I appreciate your feedback and love the 10/10 review!

It's a great service, and while pricing has gone up since we first started with Thundertix we still believe it is one of the best values for a full service ticketing solution

Pros

The fact that we can set up all of our shows and sell tickets easily both online and in person (point of service) makes it a great service. The software and show setup each year is just so easy to do. It takes very little time to get our new season set up to sell through Thundertix.

Cons

I really wish they had a way where we could sell our subscription packages online where our returning patrons could keep their same seats season after season without us having to place them all back into the seating charts manually, before ticket sales open up to the general public.

Thundertix has boosted our ticket sales for all events. It promotes advance registration and reduces cancellations, changes and refunds. However, having those options available in the system has made it easier for us to maneuver changes when they must be made.

Pros

The customer service is superb. We love the ability to have multi level tickets, ticket discounts & the ability to customize tickets in detail. Love the reserving ability for seats and that it is controlled by us and not the public. Appreciate that you allow us to add in cash or check sales to keep track of all sales for an event. It has made our ability to account for an event at the end 100% better.

Cons

The inability to have a store for merchandise separate from adding to a ticket.
Refunds & exchanges to multi day events can get very confusing. Most for us in theater as people will purchase tickets & exchange for another show time. The money flow can be confusing when doing the books for close out.

Well, that's quite a glowing review, Leona! I'm glad you are enjoying the optional sales options to facilitate ticket purchases.

On the product side, we agree that we have an opportunity here to really go beyond ticketing! So this year we're embarking on a lot of improvements including the very feature you want -- independent product sales.

Thank you for helping us improve with valuable feedback!

Exceptional. We were very worried because we suddenly had to sell our own tickets (rather than using a local box office) but the transition has been very easy and financially beneficial. Highly recommended.

Pros

Thnudertix is very easy to learn and to use for us and our customers. As with any new process, we (and our customers) sometimes make errors in setup or ordering, and Thundertix customer support is quick and easy to access and very helpful. They also make sure any problems have been

Cons

While there are always "I wish I could do it this way" thoughts, none are important, and Thundertix customer support is always very helpful.

I'm thrilled to pass your kind words onto our customer success team. They work hard to ensure an easy transition into our platform.

Thanks for your review and perfect rating!

Children's Ministry Registration Made Easy

Reviewed on 2020/11/23

We use ThunderTix at our church to have parents register their children for Sunday Worship service(s). With COVID guidelines we feel this is a simpler way to meet social distancing and the cleaning factor of our computer KIOSKS. Both the pre school director and myself like knowing who will be in each service so that we can plan our teachers and class sizes. Parents have easily navigated our website to the link for ThunderTix and have been able to register their children.

Pros

I like that ThunderTix lets us imput dates and times for our events and services. I like receiving the email notice that someone has used ThunderTix. I like that we can make it cost nothing or something again based on our individual event. I appreciate the easy use for our families as they register their children for our Sunday Worship services. I like that parents are able to include a message in their reservation if needed.

Cons

When I change my setting from Public to Private I have noticed some of our parents still register their children for our Sunday Worship and they think I have received the notice when in fact I didn't because I changed the setting to Private. So, on a few Sundays I have missed some of the kids whose parents thought they were registered. To avoid this I have left the registration "open" but parents still think it closes at noon on Thursday.

Response from Thunder Data Systems

There's a lot of good in your review, Robin but right now I'm focused on that little hiccup. I'm sorry if we had a bug at that time that caused a few parents to scoot their children in. Hopefully, it's fixed by now, and things are smooth sailing!

We made the right choice years ago and have been happy with ThunderTix. It fits our needs and is a value. I think there are many features we could use, but handle in other ways. The team has been great all these years!

Pros

Easy to log on and access data. Easy to export reports. Interfaces good via a web link. ThunderTix team is very responsive to questions and to try to accommodate unique situations. We hold 2-5 special events per year and have used ThunderTix for years. They continue to add new features. We are not your typical event venue, and ThunderTix fit us best.

Cons

Setting up an event can be a little tedious, you really need to focus especially with a multiple day event. And I admit, I do not use it as much as I used to as our team has grown, so I do get a little disoriented. I think it is because the software offers flexible options.

Response from Thunder Data Systems

Hi Barb! You are correct in that we add a lot of new features. Our code is updated daily, so it can be a little disorienting when you come back after a hiatus.

But we are here for you! Our team will even hop on a Zoom call for one-on-one (or group) training, and that can be invaluable for those that want to make the most of all those new features.

In sum, we love people that love us, and you happen to belong in that group. :)

Thank you!
