Testimonials & Reviews

Your plugin saved our client nearly $9000 in development costs because it handled the majority of the functionality we were looking for at a much lower cost. Event Espresso’s staff have been very responsive to our needs when we have them (which has been rare, because the plugin is so well coded). Great job on a great plugin!

Brandon P. – Experience Farm

At first we looked at CVENT for one of our clients and they wanted $16,000 per year for 3000 event attendees + fees totaling $22k. That is before Staff and Webinar fees. Worst of all we had to prepay the $16k amount even if we never used all 3000 attendees. That was when we looked at Event Espresso and we realized we could build our own event system for less than 16K. For the most part we have been very satisfied with our decision. The real ROI will come next year when they don’t have to pay another 16k-22K! Over the next 5-6 years we should be able to claim that we saved the company over $100,000 – Thanks Event Espresso!

David Waterman – KT Benefits & InkItDigital.com

I can’t really estimate how much time or money I’ve saved by using EE because I’ve always used it! I would have to guess that without it, I would need someone full time to keep my events organized, so that’s at least $10K. In 3 years I went from running up to 7 parties per weekend (Fri. night – Sun. night) to running up to 33 parties per weekend. My sales for 2014 were $540,000+. It boggles my mind sometimes. I don’t know how I would possibly keep this all straight without my Event Espresso registration system which allows my guests to register and pay online, and keeps track of everything for me.

Tara Smith – The Uncorked Artist

Thank you, we just did 2 sell out seminars of 50 attendees in 48 hours using Event Espresso and it was awesome. My wife was able to pick up on the processing backend with ease. You have done a great job on getting this system together – very simple, clear and well laid out With powerful functionality. I am so glad I dumped the old booking application we had and gave Event Espresso a go. Just wanted to say thanks, and thanks for the very patient, friendly and speedy assistance in helping me to get it all set up at the start. Many thanks to you and your team. A grateful customer.

Nicholas de Castella – Emotional Intelligence Trainings

It is a very, very slick plugin. It’s one of those plugins where you install it, change a couple of settings, and boom you’re selling tickets.

Brad Williams – WebDevStudios

Thanks to you and the rest of the team for Event Espresso — Every time I get a signup for an event, I think about how much time EE saves me — and signups happen while I’m out on the water teaching kayaking, not answering the phone.

Tri-South, Inc is using Event Espresso to manage the course catalog, event ticketing, and class registration. [As their developer] I have customized a few items to make the site and plugin a seamless integration. The client is very pleased!

Jenifer – Jenifer Design

Event Espresso saves us money, saves our secretary 16-24 hours and looks so professionally done that people ask us how we do it; which we happily tell them, „Event Espresso, and be sure to get the ticketing add-on.“

David – House of Prayer

I have been using Event Espresso to run my festival and have been very happy with how it has worked out. They have provided tremendous support and their iPhone app is amazing and easy to use. I suggest using it for your event.

Alex Grant – Byron Spirit Festival

Love the plugin, we only use it once a year for a race we have in February. This saved us tons of time in data entry. In addition, we had more runners register than any other year. We attribute that to the ease of registering online. Thanks for your work.

Ed – Friends of Oscar Scherer Park

My hope with this whole integration is to be able to show other school districts an affordable and easy solution to these registrations. I cannot believe how much money they are charged for less by other companies. This has the potential to save schools tens of thousands, which is huge right now.

Kelly – College Station Independent School District

I chose EE because, a few years ago, I was using it on a personal website and loved it. So, when I discovered that our current event management system that is deployed in other areas of campus was completely deficient for this initiative’s needs, I didn’t even hesitate to use EE.

Umsagnir

I had high hopes for Event Espresso, but unfortunately, my experience was far from satisfactory. One of the major letdowns was the lack of responsiveness from their support team. Speaking of bugs, I encountered several on their premium plugins and despite diligently reporting them, I never received a single response acknowledging or addressing the problems. It was frustrating to see my feedback go unnoticed and unresolved.Moreover, the event management system provided by Event Espresso was lacking and cumbersome. The user interface felt outdated, reminiscent of the 90s, and navigating through the options proved to be a tedious task. The overall experience left much to be desired, and I would strongly advise others to steer clear of this plugin. It is a plugin that I would recommend avoiding in favor of more reliable and user-friendly alternatives.

I'm using this plugin for over a year now. I use it to sell baking workshops online. The plugin does everything it promises to do and the support is great! I'm very satisfied with Event Espresso!
