The service has been great from start to finish. Their platform is highly customizable, which lets us tailor it to our event’s specific needs. It’s also very affordable, especially for the value provided. Overall, it’s a solid product with real potential to grow and improve alongside us. > > **Cons**: Like any new partnership, there were some first-year growing pains as we learned the system and worked through a few adjustments. That said, the team was always very responsive to our needs and quick to address questions or concerns. We appreciated their willingness to listen and improve along the way. > > Overall, we had a great experience with Event Essentials. We were not an easy client. Our event is complicated and fast paced, and they built three separate platforms for us in less than five months. All three operated within our expectations during the event. Afterward, we were able to debrief together and share ideas for improvement. Their team is effective, supportive, and willing to put in the effort to create an exceptional product. ----- ### "Event Essentials is amazing\!" — 5.0/5 > **Whitney** | *30 January 2025* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: This company worked well with our unique event and tailored a system for us. They took the time to learn about us, came out to see our event and talk to staff. It was very personalized service and worked with our budget as well. They care, they're patient and are really nice people too, that helps when you're trying to do something new. > > **Cons**: Our event is pretty unique, and weekly, there were a few things that had to be created from scratch and took more time than we anticipated, but they communicated along the way so at least we understood any delays. In fairness we were also still operating during the whole process of creating our new vendor system and onboarding all of our vendors, which added additional hurdles. > > Craig and Kiffen are a good team, they understand events and can tailor their system to anyone, we are a good example of that. They took on our weekly event, which was challenging, and were successful in creating a system that our vendors love. ----- ### "Great customizable platform for non-profits and event companies" — 5.0/5 > **Natalie** | *6 February 2025* | Performing Arts | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: This is a great customizable platform that can has been shaped to meet the organization's needs for producing our weekly event. > > **Cons**: Like working with any 3rd party contractor, the client must keep up communications and updates to move forward with projects. You're not their only client, so do your part to keep up the momentum. > > Craig has been a fantastic liaison, metaphorically holding our hands through the launch, and checking in as we add new features to the system. The actual system works well, and any bugs we find are addressed in a timely manner. ----- ### "Event Essentials is amazing\!" — 5.0/5 > **Jose** | *6 February 2025* | Entertainment | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Event Essentials is clean, clear, and quick enough to keep up with all of our weekly demands. We move many things around internally and having an accessible trail and a well buttoned system has been amazing. The features are customizable, and we look forward to progressing with Event Essentials. > > **Cons**: The system will only deliver what is being asked of it. Having a good set of asks and functions listed beforehand can make for optimal user experience. Don't worry if you are not sure what you will need, the team will work with you to get you there, but it may take them longer. > > As a booking coordinator I work with a lot of people and have many things going on in one business day. Before Event Essentials, I was tracking down payments and doing my best to work around outdated map layout and a series of opened windows. Now with Event Essentials, everything is available in one location, and my attention has shifted from the juggling/chasing act to our clients and their experiences at our venue. The system is frequently updated and the Event Essential's team make us feel like our experience is important to them. ----- ### "Streamline and organize all your events\!" — 5.0/5 > **Kari** | *26 June 2025* | Wine & Spirits | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: User friendly, mobile app friendly, not complicated or fussy to learn. I highly recommend Event Essentials\! > > **Cons**: I don't know that we fully utilized all of its capabilities, I would like to learn more about all the features it offers. > > Event Essentials organized all the moving parts of our event, they made every step clear and accessable for the organizers, vendors, and attendees. ----- Page: 1 / 4\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.il/software/138263/event-essentials?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.il/software/138263/event-essentials) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
