The platform is really friendly and clear. It is easy to plan an event for the first time. being able to do white branding is really a plus.

Connecting my event to a Facebook page I manage did not work. They've done an excellent job hiding a support request form, but have not responded to my request for help.

This programme is straight forward and user friendly. Anyone with a minimal amount of IT skill can easily use it. And there is a friendly, no nonsense customer support dept if you do get stuck.
