Excellent team and support always available to help or take feedback on areas of improvement

Pros

Interface is easy and I’m able to publish my events in no time. Team is supportive and always there to help.

Cons

When carrying more than 5 events, they don’t all display on your dashboard without clicking “view more”. Unfortunately when you get to that next screen it takes away the ability to see overall ticket sales at a glance.

My overall experience with Showpass was very positive, and I would recommend it for its fast check-in, mobile accessibility, and transparent pricing. Just be aware that if you need support in the evening, you might be on your own for a while.

Pros

A major highlight for me was the convenience of having everything in one place. From ticketing to attendee management, Showpass offers a centralized platform that made my life so much easier.

Cons

Their customer service closes at 7pm, which could be limiting in urgent situations.
