Eventzilla vs. TryBooking

• Eventzilla is a one-stop shop platform for all your online as well as offline event management needs.
• It helps you set up everything - creating landing pages, managing registrations, forms, attendees, streaming, poll questions, surveys, payments, and event promotion.
• The data can be easily retrieved and exported later.
• The interface however needs a little improvement.

I use TryBooking for all three gala fundraising events. They are well suited to each of these events. My largest gala dinner is 1,600 women at Crown Palladium, which usually sells out in ten minutes. The TryBooking system can handle this onslaught and has streamlined the whole process of ticket purchasing and receipting. Confirmation emails, the creation of guest lists and the collection of data has also been made so much easier with the use of their system.

• Some aspects of the software could be more intuitive - I found that pointing my domain to the Eventzilla landing page was extremely difficult
• It is not easy to get a hold of customer support - It took a significant amount of time for me to get in contact with a support agent

Incentivized

• Would like TryBooking to re-introduce donating fees to NFPs who use their service.
• The language in the backend of the website is sometimes confusing.
• Would like more flexibility in the order of how purchasing and data collection happens.

As, stated before, the only thing that I found to be difficult when using this software was pointing an existing domain to the Eventzilla Registration landing page. I followed all of the steps as illustrated and I continued to experience errors when trying to navigate via the domain. I could not get in contact with support and so we chose to use the extremely long Eventzilla domain. This was not a big deal, but it would have been nice to use our own domain that we purchased

Support is adequate, but sometimes has difficulty grasping all of the pieces of a question. Once, I asked for help with a relatively technical integration that we were using to track event effectiveness, and their answer left me wondering if they even understood that the feature I was asking about even existed in their system.

I am not particularly familiar with any event registration / ticketing alternatives. This software was used by my organization when I was hired and it is all I am familiar with!

Incentivized

• We use it for internal events, so mostly our ownemployees join the events. These are usually fun events, so ROI is not expected.
• Most of the times, we are simply organizing recreational events for our employees, so it boosts the morale of the participants to have a proper organized setup for the events they attend.
