The one-off fee allows us to keep our prices low and not pay additional commission on sales. > > **Cons**: There is an extensive range of options and these are sometimes difficult to find in the Admin interface. However \[sensitive content hidden\] responds very quickly and fully with help. > > osConcert provides a complete solution for customers to reserve and pay for e.g. theatre seats. Because it has evolved over a number of years, there is a wide range of options e.g. reserved/general seating, payment methods, sales via website or box office agents, various ticket options and also many detailed configurable options. Seat plans for different seating layouts can easily be produced. The procedure for getting started with osConcert is to agree a level of support with \[sensitive content hidden\] to set up the system to meet your needs so that you can subsequently manage your events and ticket sales. Although there is a lot of help documentation available, there are a lot of options some of which will require help and explanation. ----- ### "Great Option for Presenters" — 5.0/5 > **Jamie** | *27 November 2018* | Entertainment | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Customization abilities via developer's programmer > > **Cons**: The look of the interface is getting dated. > > Great for us for 4 years\! Parts of it became broken which didn't affect the operation...but for example running reports often failed due to memory errors that I could never resolve even when forcing PHP memory values. ----- ### "Easy and fast way to sell tickets for events." — 4.0/5 > **Daniel** | *30 December 2018* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: The most important feature is its easy installation and configuration, since it allows installing our own server platform. Thus we have control of the entire system to manage events. > > **Cons**: The biggest advantage is that we can customize all its interface and support can help us after the purchase to perform the updates. > > One of the most attractive features is that the system generates etickets in PDF that can be printed by the customer automatically, also has the option to include QR codes for digital reading. ----- ### "I loved it \!\!\!" — 4.0/5 > **Kai** | *2 September 2021* | Performing Arts | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: This software convinced me from the start. The friendly support always helps with problems. It was important to me to get software that I can fully adapt to my needs. The software looks and works professionally. It's nice to see what you get for "little money". There are no hidden costs or commissions. Everything is easy to understand. Also usable for users with little admin experience. As with any software, you have to read certain things, understand them and then implement them in a targeted manner. clear recommendation to buy > > **Cons**: Some training is necessary in certain areas. The installation of other language files requires knowledge and patience everything can be learned and implemented\! support always helps 100% quick and friendly > > Well thought-out software\! visually very appealing technically powerful and functional\! easy to learn and can be individually designed Great job\! ----- ### "Full featured, cheap to buy and run, good support but some compatibility problems" — 3.0/5 > **Phil** | *24 December 2017* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: Attractive customised seat plans, no commission on sales (apart from PayPal), cheap and well supported. When we started using it a few years ago, it was pretty much the only show in town if you wanted to offer allocated seating from a self-hosted solution to keep everything in-house and avoid booking fees on every sale (hundreds of pounds a year for us). > > **Cons**: Problems with OS compatibility (Ubuntu 16.04), occasional failed transactions and lack of CMS integration caused a lot of administrator work. If you want it to blend with the rest of your site you have to create a whole new theme for it and keep the menus in sync. If the OS is updated, in our case because PHP5.6 support was ending, be prepared for a lot of pain. We used osConcert very successfully for a few years but ultimately we were forced to choose between rolling back to an earlier operating system or changing our ticketing system, and we went to StageShowGold instead. The occasional failed transactions were probably PayPal's fault, Stripe seems more reliable but wasn't supported by osConcert at the time. The system doesn't work very well on a mobile screen, nor is it accessible to disabled people. This is very unfortunate, but I don't know any alternative system that achieves either of these - it's hard to show a big seat plan on a small screen without lots of panning and zooming and avoiding javascript is difficult. > > Customers can choose, pay for and print their own tickets whenever they like, providing convenience for them and reducing administration for us. Attractive customised seat plan, self-hosted software with no booking fees. ----- Page: 1 / 4\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ae/software/111229/osconcert?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ae/software/111229/osconcert) ## 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
