“Sometimes, with Splash, it is difficult to change things, easily move things around splash. I wish there was a tad more freedom on the use of tools and their capabilities.”
Olivia S – Senior Recruitment Marketing Specialist
Eventbrite is a user-friendly platform. Even new users can get the hang of the interface in no time. Eventbrite offers features that non-technical organizers can easily use as well. These features include event agenda, photos, reminders, and registration.
Eventbrite’s platform integrates well with other platforms, which makes the data collection and organizing process efficient and seamless.
However, many users feel that their built-in apps need an upgrade.
“The Organizer app could use some work. Too many bugs.”
Isaac A – Project Officer
vFairs is a reputable ands easy-to- use platform that provides the feeling of a live conference. The platform is very straightforward and requires no training to be able to work through. Non- technical users can easily operate it. However, our customer success team makes sure to assist the new clients till they’re familiar with the interface.
Many users prefer vFairs over other platforms because of its usability. The platform offers numerous features that are extremely easy to interpret, manage, and use.
“vFairs was a simple and easy-to-use solution. The team offered lots of great training and was fantastic at walking us through each area of the platform. Our users found that the platform differentiated our conference from other similar conferences on the market, and really enjoyed the various opportunities for interaction.”

Splashthat pricing is simple. They offer four packages with different prices to suit your needs: Free, Basic, Pro, and Enterprise. The prices can go up to more than $21,500/ year. These packages offer basic features, with additional features depending upon each package.
The basic features offer registration, analytics, and integrations. However, the advanced features include complete customizations, access to the design studio, and more.
Resultantly, many users feel that their price for user licenses keeps increasing. This gets quite expensive for small to medium sized organizations.
“While the cost of the yearly license isn’t very expensive, the cost of the user licenses keep increasing, and when you have a team of 5+ people who need designer level access, it can get expensive.”
Administrator in Marketing and Advertising
Eventbrite offers three different packages for different types of clients. They offer the Essential, Professional, and Premium package. The essentials and professional packages are free to start with, but then charge for addons. The essential package covers everything basic such as a single type of ticket, organizer mobile app, listing on Eventbrite web page and social media, and other basics.
The Professional package is a step higher. It comes with the customization option that helps clients brand their event. It includes everything from the Essential package plus customizable check forms, detailed sales analytics, scheduled payouts, unlimited ticket types, and more.
The premium package offers tailored services for event pros with large or complex events. However, if you are interested in going for the premium package, you ‘ll have to talk to their customer representative who will guide you through the process and will share the pricing according to your event requirements.
The issue users face with Eventbrite is that they usually aren’t clear with what the exact cost will be since they do charge a little extra at the end.
“I dislike that the price for events is not immediately clear. I would like greater transparency about all associated costs (especially hidden fees). Also, if Eventbrite could conduct their own analysis of the cost for events that are not just ticket price (transportation, etc.) that would be great.”
User in Entertainment
VFairs offers unique packages as compared to Eventbrite and Splashthat.. It offers single-event, two-event, and annual licenses. It charges clients for specific feature add-ons. In addition, the company only charges by attendee volume if it goes over the 10,000 attendee limit.
The single-event license caters to one virtual event per year. Along with its original price, you have the option of going for additional features such as booths, webinars, live days, and on-demand hosting. These add-ons have additional charges.
Similarly, the two-events license comes with a 15% discount and additional features can be added with additional charges. The annual license comes with a 20% discount on hosting 4 events a year. It comes with 15 booths, 15 sessions, one live day, and 12 months of on-demand hosting.
“Such an AWESOME tool for a great price/value. Easy to put in place. Great designers in the background. Access to all the analytics in real-time. Really good ROI.”

Splashthat can seamlessly integrate between ATS and CRM which cuts most of the manual work to keep a track of the applicant lifecycle. It can also be very helpful to forecast future performance and set goals.
However, many users have faced issues with integrations specifically in the case of Salesforce and Zoom. The process of figuring out how to integrate other applications is often misunderstood and not made clear by the Splashthat team.
“The integration with Salesforce could be better – the field mapping can be a little complicated.”
Carla R – Senior Events Manager
Eventbrite is a user-friendly event platform that works as a one-stop shop for both the hosts and the attendees.

Social media integrations can benefit your event greatly by attracting conversions.
“The purchase flow is seamless and optimized for a repeat user with saved credit card information. Literally becomes a 1 click purchase. Plus the Facebook integration is another great opportunity for effortless conversion.”
User in Transportation/Trucking/Railroad
Eventbrite can also integrate with platforms such as Mailchimp, Hubspot, YouTube, Survey Monkey, Tixel, and more.
However, these integrations require a smooth transition that Eventbrite is not great at.
“I would like to see more customization options. It also needs better integration with other apps and software to easily pass data.”
Administrator in Environmental Services

Joshua D – Graphic Designer
Eventbrite provides complete support to its clients while onboarding to make sure they settle well and become familiar with the platform in case they are new to it. Their customer support is considered very mediocre by many of its users since they take a very long time to respond and can only clarify some base level questions. In most cases, questions aren’t answered clearly.
Moreover, Eventbrite only offers live support to the professional and premium users.
“Customer support takes a long time to respond and they didn’t clear up all our questions either. The program is not very intuitive, so you have to have a clear idea of what kind of events you want to do.”
User in Information Technology and Services
When it comes to customer support, there is no event management company that does it better. There is always one aspect of vFairs that no client forgets to compliment, and that is the extraordinary customer support.
