Product Benefits

 Time Savings

You will save enormous amounts of time you currently spend scheduling and managing your events calendar, preparing proposals and contracts, sending them by email, managing and collecting payments and manually tracking your leads.

 Increased Revenue

Your revenue will increase through improved close ratios, better lead management and follow up, better quality proposals and contracts, reduced late payments and a greater number of immediate payments.

 Reduced Cost

Your costs will be reduced. This includes costs associated with trips to the bank to deposit checks and mailing or emailing contracts. You will also see time savings and cost reductions from a tightly integrated events calendar, proposal, contract, lead management and online payment system.

 One Solution

You will see a reduction or elimination of the need for multiple products you may be using today. Many of our customers previously used 3-6 products or more for lead management, calendar, contracts, payments, proposals, etc. and spent large amounts of time and money on all of them. We provide a single, tightly integrated and shared system for all of the above.

 Improved Cash Flow

We will improve your cash flow through an increased number of online payments with faster payment times, a reduced number of late payments and a greater number of closed deals with shorter sales cycle times.

 Happy Clients

You will see drastically improved turnaround times and quality levels for Calendar Scheduling, Proposals, Contracts, Lead Follow Up and Payments. We also foster and provide better and faster client/venue collaboration and support problem/issue resolution during the life cycle of an event.

Pain Points We Solve

 Manual or Spreadsheets

Your Event Booking is currently manual or you are using spreadsheets. This causes many problems, some of which are: missed scheduling, lack of follow up on leads and clients, double booking, lost deals, unhappy clients and late payments.

 Payments Only

You are currently using a Payments Only solution like Square or PayPal but you need many more features than just Payments alone.

 Desktop Based Solution

You are currently using a Desktop Based Solution which cannot be shared by multiple users.

 Legacy Based Solution

You are currently using an old and antiquated software product with Pre-Internet architecture and a terrible UI.

 No Website Integration

Leads come in via your website but they need to be manually re-entered into your current system. This causes errors and duplication of effort. It also causes slower lead follow up and lost deals.

 No Payments or Contracts

You currently have no ability to do Online Payments or Online Contracts. Your clients are asking you for both.

 Not Event Based

Your current software is not event based. It feels like you are constantly trying to fit a square peg into a round hole.

 Poor Reporting

Your current solution does not provide good Reporting or Analytics. You are not informed on critical business metrics and you feel like you are flying blind.

 Old Technology

Your current solution is old technology which is not Mobile and Tablet friendly. And the UI reminds you of an Excel spreadsheet circa 1994.

 No Product Integration

No integration means duplicate data entry, errors and wasted time. We eliminate them all and protect and enhance your critical business applications with tight integration to many best of breed Software Platforms including QuickBooks, Xero and FreshBooks for Accounting, Stripe for Online Payments, MailChimp and Constant Contact for Email Marketing, Salesforce, HubSpot, Slack and many others.

Testimonials

     

 Our organization has struggled with horrendously outdated practices and procedures for booking our 7 large, publicly-owned venues. The EBE team was familiar with our types of issues, and was incredibly responsive to all of our questions, as well as providing extensive, personalized immediate consultation throughout the configuration, testing, and launch process. We love the EBE Cloud-based system with public-facing calendar views, detailed event booking life-cycle tracking, customizable templates/forms for proposals, contracts, documents and an array of attachments! The onboarding and customization process was extremely well-supported, with special functionality added for our specific needs. The company stands behind this product, answers every question as soon as possible, and worked with us directly, day and night, whenever there were questions. They really stood behind the system in order to make it great for us. Reasons for Selecting Event Booking Engines: Most systems were too much for what we need and too expensive based on billing model - a great deal of our venues and rooms are booked by the public for free, so volume or # of events-based pricing models can't work for us. Several other products could not give us a public-facing calendar that we didn't have to customize or pay additional plug-in fees for. The EBE team worked with our specific situation every step of the way, and still is. Reasons for Switching to Event Booking Engines: Our old system had no web interface, no public-facing calendar, was extremely expensive. a 2-year, very expensive upgrade process yielded an incomplete, unsupported system that staff was not willing or able to use. There was next to no client IT support, no configuration support, and charges were unreasonable.

 The Event Booking Engines software platform has created a very positive client impression and has a focus on an Event and all tasks and information associated with it. They provide a Client Portal plug in on our web site for each client with secure access which reduces our client interaction and time needs because clients can quickly and easily review their events and proposals, review and sign contracts and make online payments directly from our web site. I depend on this software daily as it encompasses so much of my business needs as a Wedding Venue Owner. The features I use most are: online event/lead management and booking, the Lead Form, Client Calendar and Client Portal web site plug ins, online proposals, the client contract e-signature capability, client online payments and automated payment receipts and reminders for my clients/couples. Event Booking Engines takes our professionalism to a whole new level and is impressive to our existing and prospective clients when we present a proposal, add custom uploaded documents or photographs of the clients and/or our logo or site photos. I can't think of any customer service in any aspect of business that has been more prompt and thorough for any questions I may need help on. Andrei and his team have worked closely with our Web Design team on the Widget plug ins for our web site and they have provided outstanding support during our onboarding and with general questions. They have also worked closely with our SEO manager for specialty requests. I am going on 2 years of subscription and view Event Booking Engines as a part time employee. Being in the business of Weddings and long time commitments, I will be "engaged" with this company as long as we are in business!

 Event Booking Engines is AMAZING! My organization upgraded to EBE from an ancient program used many years ago. This software has helped us with reports and organizing our daily client interactions. I cannot say this enough...support is outstanding!! This platform makes organizing event leads, calendar, payments, contracts, invoices so easy!! EBE is super user friendly. They have an amazing support staff. Very quick response time. Setting up the system is easy. I will even email a question to support sometimes and they will send me a video tutorial answering my question. I cannot say enough good things about EBE!!!

 Overall, our experience has been excellent. The Event Booking Engines Software Platform is very strong, with tremendous feature set and value. And their Customer Service is outstanding!!! On a scale of 1 to 5 stars I would give it 10 stars if I could. Prompt, reliable and helpful and if I make a suggestion for a change or addition it is done within minutes!

 Event Booking Engines integrates all aspects of reservations into one system. We are a small volunteer run nonprofit organization that rents out an historic wedding and event venue. We are thrilled to have transitioned from a manual reservation process to Event Booking Engines. We now have everything in one place - client information, event booking, contracts with electronic signature, payments, task reminders, checklists, master calendar and availability calendar (which is viewable on our website), staff scheduling, etc. We are still learning all the features that we can benefit from. Customer service is excellent. Andrei and his team are very responsive (even evenings and weekends) and they are willing to customize components of the software to suit our needs when we have a specific request. They have worked with every request we've made and we greatly appreciate the flexibility. Sometimes Andrei just explains that they already have it set up - just not where we had expected and other times they make sweeping changes to accommodate our requests. In one of Andrei's responses to a particular request, he said, "It makes us very happy to provide product which has high value to you."

 Event Booking Engines is powerful and it's a complete, all-in-one booking system. Previously, I had to use multiple different systems to coordinate bookings, and it was a nightmare. Now I can do it all in one database. A lifesaver. Andrei and his team are fantastic about making updates, implementing customer suggestions, and squashing bugs quickly if they come up. I've been nothing but impressed by Event Booking Engines so far. Overall: This, plus QuickBooks, represents all I need for my back office systems. It's made my life 100x easier by keeping all of my data in one place. Plus, the embeddable contact forms and calendars for my website are invaluable.

 Event Booking Engines hands down has the best support I've seen in quite some time. I've tried different software products and this one is a great fit for my needs. I also like the online calendar feature the most. It's a great sales tactic to potential clients. Gives them a sense of urgency to book as soon as possible or their date may be gone. I have increased sales directly from using this product. I can easily track leads and export to my sales team to make calls and follow up with clients. The support is amazing. I love the online calendar feature and it does not cost an arm and a leg for it. The only other software company I found that offered an online calendar costs thousands of dollars and that is way out of our budget for software.

 I like the Widgets for our website the most. We have installed the Lead Form, Calendar and Client Portal Widgets and our clients love them! Event Booking Engines Customer Service is fantastic...very fast and personal. This product greatly streamlines and improves the communication process between us and our clients. Overall: Great time saver for the interaction between our staff and our leads/customers and a huge improvement in the quality of that interaction! 

Vanessa Oatman: Venue Director, THJCA Event Center, Tampa, FL
     

 Event Booking Engines has helped us streamline management of 3 historic theaters in Chicago. The calendar is a breeze to use. Quick access on mobile too. Keeping track of past, present and prospective clients for future marketing is a big plus. File uploads (ie. riders, flyers, rentals) is a big plus as well. The system is very intuitive and streamlines the flow of event booking and management. It has been a great time saver for us.
