## Reviews

### "CCHS Theatre Review" — 4.0/5

> **Jennifer** | *6 June 2024* | Entertainment | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: What I like most about On The Stage is the webpage design and marketing elements. They are also extremely efficient and prompt with payouts.
> 
> **Cons**: I wish that On The Stage had the option to not allow for gap seats between purchases in a venue. We often have clients that leave a single seat between their purchase and adjacent seats, and it is very difficult to sell these. We have mentioned this to On The Stage, in the hopes that there would be, the ability to set a parameter whereby gap seats could not be left by clients. Other ticketing platforms do provide the service. But as of yet, this is not something that On The Stage is capable of. This would make it very big difference for us in sales we sell out frequently and have the most difficult time selling single seats. Additionally, it is not simple for our clients to buy multiple tickets to multiple performances in one transaction. If that were simpler and more transparent process, it would make things much easier for our clients.
> 
> Overall, my experience with On The Stage has been very good. There are some additional features that I think would be extremely beneficial to the platform and I’ve discussed these with my agent, but they do not seem to go anywhere overall, the pricing is not unreasonable, but higher than other platforms that I could be using. The selling feature for me is the webpage and the design elements that On The Stage offers and their marketing capabilities.

### "School performance use" — 5.0/5

> **Rachel** | *10 June 2024* | Fine Art | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Easy use- in expensive. Mostly intuitive/good navigation
> 
> **Cons**: Sometimes the customer service wouldn’t directly help you do some thing when I couldn’t find it on the site directly
> 
> Good. Appreciate that they reached out to me when I asked them to reconnect when I knew we would be negotiating new contracts for our ticket company

### "OTS Useful for Self-Producing Performing Artists" — 3.0/5

> **Bennyroyce** | *2 May 2023* | Performing Arts | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The customer service and support from OTS staff is great. They are very helpful and professional.
> 
> **Cons**: More design features and options for the ticketing website would be great, like changing font types, etc.
> 
> ON THE STAGE has helped me promote and sell tickets for my dance projects.

### "OTS is a must have for my department" — 4.0/5

> **John** | *5 June 2024* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Ease of use, user friendly, automatic email marketing
> 
> **Cons**: There have been times when I've gotten a bit confused but another great thing about OTS is that they continually update and improve.
> 
> Using OTS is an important and valued part of what we do in my educational program. I could not do what I do as well without OTS.

### "On The Stage is a great product for your theatre regardless of size." — 5.0/5

> **Adam** | *27 April 2023* | Performing Arts | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: On The Stage makes online ticketing a breeze regardless of the size of your venue or event.  OTS is extremely user friendly and their customer service is top notch.  My company has used OTS for several years now and we couldn't' be happier with the product.  They are constantly striving to improve an already great product, and on top of that they are a company that truly cares about your success.  The wide array of features they offer make it your one stop shop for everything your theatre needs online, form ticketing, to programs, to fundraising.  You can do it all at On The Stage.
> 
> **Cons**: Honestly there is very little we don't like about OTS.  It has been super easy to integrate into our current website, and is very easy to use on the backend.  Every time there has been something we had an issue with or thought might be improved on, we have mentioned it to the staff at OTS and if they aren't already working to improve it they take note and have seemed to address it in the future.
> 
> Our overall experience has been great.  They are very committed to raising the quality level of the online experience for even the smallest of theatres.
