## Reviews

### "Great for ticketed events\!" — 4.0/5

> **Clayton** | *9 February 2018* | Computer Software
> 
> **Pros**: Great for ticketed events because they print and send them for free\! Customer service is quick and responsive.
> 
> **Cons**: They're a bit of a smaller company, and while customer service is great, making a ton of changes on the fly is not ideal. Best for more matured events, especially if you're printing the tickets.

### "First time user of the product" — 4.0/5

> **Philip** | *27 January 2022* | Performing Arts | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Ramping up for the first time with BPT wasn't terribly difficult. The event creation software was pretty intuitive, and robust.
> 
> **Cons**: The reporting section and tracking transactions, in particular, weren't as easy as I'd hoped. And not very intuitive.
> 
> Generally, it's a great low-cost alternative, especially for non-profit arts organizations like ourselves.

### "BPT holds on to money collected" — 2.0/5

> **Linda** | *7 July 2020* | Fund-Raising | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: it's WAS user friendly. too bad they are not.
> 
> **Cons**: After having to cancel our Event for March 19th, 2020 because of COVID-19 communication with BPT has been bad. Also, They have been sitting on our event funds that were collected. I have sent several e-mails and called to be redirected to email the BPTsupport team and the support team does not respond.  &#10;&#10;Our Event was canceled, however, our scholarship commitments to students were not. We have been waiting for the funds collected for over 4 months.
> 
> NOT HAPPY\! I know now that they do not respond well during a crisis.
