About SimpleTix

SimpleTix is an online ticketing system for performing arts, concerts, festivals, visitor attractions, conferences and tradeshows, sporting events, and more. The platform allows event organizers and venues to sell tickets online through their own website or a dedicated event page. The embeddable widget can be integrated into any website, and lets customers purchase tickets without having to navigate away from the site. Users can create custom seating charts for different venues to allow customers to select their own seats, and freeze or reserve seats as necessary. Various discounted tickets can be offered to different groups, such as students and senior citizens.

The SimpleTix mobile app allows users to retrieve guest information, manage check-ins, and track attendance on the day from their mobile device. Tickets can be scanned using device cameras, and sales can be made on the door with payment processing through Square. SimpleTix also integrates with a range of third-party applications, including MailChimp, ActiveCampaign, Stripe, PayPal, Salesforce, Zapier, and more.


Key benefits of SimpleTix

  • Interactive seating charts can be created, allowing customers to reserve their own seats, with real-time availability updates to ensure that individual seats cannot be double-booked.

  • For tradeshows and conferences, vendors and exhibitors can view and select assigned floor space at any time, check pricing, confirm availability, and make payments online.

  • Tickets can be scanned using SimpleTix’s native mobile apps and a smartphone camera, ensuring that tickets are only used once and enabling real-time attendance tracking.

  • Event tickets can be sold through a custom event page, or a booking widget which can be embedded in existing websites, allowing customers to purchase tickets without navigating away.

  • SimpleTix integrates with a range of third party systems, including PayPal, Square, and Stripe for payment processing, MailChimp and ActiveCampaign for marketing, Salesforce CRM, and more.

    Our small company can sell tickets to an event with very low fees (much less than what I found from sites like eventbrite).

    Pros

    It's relatively easy to use, but more importantly, when I had an issue I received a solution from tech support in an hour. The customer rep was incredibly helpful.

    Cons

    It may take a little time to figure out some of the bells and whistles, but really the software is pretty easy to use.

    I really appreciate the almost immediate response I get each time I reach out to the customer service team at Simpletix. They always respond quickly and clearly with the answers I need...even sending a video to walk me through the process step-by-step! They do an amazing job!!! Thanks!

    Pros

    Easy to use and the customer service is AMAZING! Where other companies are lacking, the responsiveness at Simpletix is bar none!

    Cons

    The only thing negative I could think of would be that I can't always find what tools I need, but they are there. They've thought of everything!

    I would not recommend this system; we will be abandoning it at the end of this season, even though we love the price.

    Pros

    The cost is very reasonable. The customer service person is usually fast to respond. However, when we point out to him that his server is slow, and the system is slow, he seems to gloss over that problem.

    Cons

    We have many, many complaints about the speed of the site, customers getting locked out, seats that were abandoned in the shopping carts being held as "unavailable" to future patrons (which means lost revenue). The back-end interface is confusing, and could use a real examination and streamlining. You can't always get to what you need, and I never feel like I know the exact steps to find something.

    Overall experience with SimpleTix has been very good. I can't wait to use SimpleTix more. We are trusting SimpleTix with our quarter of a million-dollar exhibition we are bringing to our little town.

    Pros

    What I like most about SimpleTix is the user interface and customer service. [sensitive content hidden] has been there every step of the way. His replies are informative and very quick. It has been a great start to our relationship with SimpleTix.

    Cons

    If the ticket page had more customization options, it would be fantastic. Possibly adding a bigger hero image or auto video capabilities. Editing for ticket dates/times could use some work.
