Deathride Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 OK first things first, I have had a look on the forum and google and I have no idea what to look for. what I am after is software that will tell us how many tickets we have reserved how many we have sold also something that will print tickets for us . (I have looked I'm just not sure I am looking for the right things ) we know where to find everything else just those things are a real pain and started to do my head in. Thanks in advance Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thcousins Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 Depends totaly on you budget and requirements, but 'most' places I know use either Databox or PASS (depending on size). For a small event, a simle spreadsheetor database will do the job! There is also... Tickets.com - www.tickets.com PASS, DataBox, eBoxOffice Galathea STS - www.galatheasts.comBOCS, ENTA Hoge 100 Business Systems - www.hoge100.co.uk Stadium, StageIT Nortech Software - www.ticketprinting.co.ukBox Office 400 TOR Systems - www.torsystems.co.ukMaxim Hope this helps TC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mac.calder Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 What is your budget? What sort of venue? What sort of ticketing system/how complex a system do you want? Are you going to print out the tickets on normal paper and cut them out or do you have ticket stock? Are you after a multi thousand dollar system where the ushers have data terminals and scan the tickets? Are you going to mail the tickets out? Do you want online booking? You may want to look at phpMyTicket or CenterStage's winTix if you are after free - however I do not really recommend these packages. If you are looking at spending a bit more, have a look at BoxOffice or Etubos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OB2 Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 what we use is databox, and its a great system! I reckon you should look into that, its a very simple system to use - I mean I can use it!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robloxley Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 Is it a single venue; what is the budget (setup & ongoing); do you need online sales; how many box office terminals/printers etc.; credit card handling built in?? For online sales, you really need to let people be able to choose their seat. As far as I can see the databox/tickets.com solution doesn't allow this.

3guk Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 I tend to just tend to make up my own access database if its a small scale project. Managed to use it for over 1000 tickets before with no problems, it just requires a bit of careful planning beforehand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OB2 Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 I think its best to invest in a purpose designed software - esp if its to be used regularly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
