“I absolutely love it and it is a breath of fresh air to use something that works straight off the bat and is simple to use and does exactly what you need it to!”
“Used TryBooking to advertise 3 public lectures and it did everything we needed it to do and it was so easy to use. Would highly recommend it.”
“TryBooking is a fantastic platform; we use it for all our Alumni events. The fact we can integrate the events into our own website is really useful. The team are really helpful - it's brilliant to be able to speak to someone. We can't fault the customer service.”
“Running events can be very time consuming and having an easy to use system for attendees to book is very important to us. Having used Eventbrite for a number of years we became frustrated by the lack of support available and the limited options on a free account. Having discovered TryBooking, we have not looked back!”
“We have 130 people booked for the eSafety event, 121 signed up in the last 24 hours! Fantastic!”
“We've just started using TryBooking and I was really impressed with the way the service works. We've already had great feedback from our parents and staff, so it made choosing a ticketing service for my own project easy.”
“TryBooking has streamlined and simplified our Concert Booking systems beyond recognition. Our parents love the easy to use formats and the TryBooking team offer us the best customer service around. Our school events are easy to book and as professional as the best Theatres and Concert Halls around.”
“Can I take this opportunity to say thank you for all your constant support in helping us get going with the ticketing system. It has felt more like working with an additional staff member than an external company.”
“TryBooking turns event booking into an artform. Helpful staff, simple platform and works whether running multiple events over time to selling tickets for the school show.”
