It is a useful tool for managing online ticket sales and donations, serving as a box office POS, and tracking patron engagement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AudienceView Professional?

The product has not changed much since the "OvationTix" rebrand. It is essentially the same platform as it has existed for well over a decade now, and it is really starting to show its age. It is also quite expensive! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about AudienceView Professional?

When we converted to AudienceView Professional 4 years ago, I was surprised at how easy the integration was. The data conversion was seamless; the training was comprehensive and easy to follow; our team integrated AudienceView Pro into our daily operations without interruption!

As a tiny (but mighty) non-profit arts council supporting all disciplines of art, an intimate performance venue, and Membership benefits, I appreciate that AudienceView Professional is flexible in support of our varied needs - even even those that are sometimes outside the typical event-ticketing process. The customer support team is great about offering creative ideas to help us meet our objectives (such as summer camp registration).

It is important to track the development cycle of our patrons and supporters, and I appreacite that a CRM is included AND connected to our ticketing, membership, and donation history & activity.

Finally, I very much appreciate the on-going updates to improve the system and user experience overall! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AudienceView Professional?

I'm not sure I "dislike" anything in AudenceView Professional. Sometimes our needs are unique and it's unreasonable for me to expect custom design for our tiny organization. Besides, customer support is often able to help me accomplish our needs by offering creative ideas Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is AudienceView Professional solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have rolled out more Member Benefits including discounts on Art Exhibit submissions (payment captured via Products) and Event ticket discounts vary based on membership level in the hopes of incentivizing patrons to attend/participate more.

Our venue has an open floor performance/listening room, so our seating options may change based on the Performance. We greatly appreciate having multiple seating layouts. It's helpful to be able to kill seats for sale when tickets aren't selling as well and we can spread out our seating set up to look less empty. (Side note: The way killed seats display online - the tables still display - can be confusing for patrons.) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about AudienceView Professional?

One of the biggest reasons why I prefer using AudienceView over other ticketing platforms is the ease of use. Most things are very clear and easy to set up and navigate. And any time I've ever had any questions or issues they've been taken care of very quickly. Their help team is great and timely! One of the other reasons why I love this platform over others is how many detailed things I can do. It makes pulling information on patrons, sales, donations, and everything so much easier and definitely helps me stay organized. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AudienceView Professional?

The pricing is a little high-- only if you're not using it for its full potential! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is AudienceView Professional solving and how is that benefiting you?

This platform allows me to stay organized and keep track of all donors, patrons, and ticket sales. I've tried other companies and did not like how I had to have several other ways of tracking information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Audience View has solved the long lines on ticket launch days and has offered a patron managament system that is increasing customer engagament and voluteer ease of use. It has also allowed us a more streamlined approach to recurring user tickets and the ability to access patron records from previous years. We have added the donation component with levels for donors and early access to tickets. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about AudienceView Professional?

Easy box office ticket sales flow and at-a-glance sales dashboard. Customizable content calendars, such as only concerts or only films. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AudienceView Professional?

That it is not embaddable into our website! We are unable to measure traffic to AV sales pages preventing full ROI measurement. The report module has a lot of options but can be limiting, such as 1st time patrons is an odd work around report. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is AudienceView Professional solving and how is that benefiting you?

AV helps us execute over 70 events a year, creates multi event packages, and memberships with multiple benefits. Easy to reconcile in QuickBooks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about AudienceView Professional?

The software is very feature rich. In contrast with some of its competitors it has a more robust suite of options when it comes to event creation and package management in particular. We also appreciate the improvements AudienceView has made to customer service over the past few years. Tickets are responded to quickly and effectively. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AudienceView Professional?

AV Professional has been built kind of piecemeal over many years, and many of the aspects of the software you would hope operate the same or would link together simply don't. As an example, the interface for pre-show and post-show emails are completely different and neither are exactly user friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is AudienceView Professional solving and how is that benefiting you?

We came to AV because we needed affordable ticketing software that could handle seating maps, and experience with that has been excellent. New features have been rolled out since we started that have enabled us to create a better, more legible seating map for our unorthodox space. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
