The "Good" and the "needs further improvement" **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Crystal B. | Operations Manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 21, 2025 **What do you like best about Event Temple?** User friendly, customizable, reliable access and isn't down often or at least we don't notice any necessary shut downs for maintenance or upgrades. Customer support has always been great and quick to respond. We utilize this across several users daily all day. Document share is seamless from our side as our clients end. **What do you dislike about Event Temple?** The New look has some features that appear to have coding errors as I get messages that don't make sense and require a field entry that isn't present. One example is adding payments currently and it requires a field for entry that isn't an option. **What problems is Event Temple solving and how is that benefiting you?** Customizable BEO's, easy invoice creation, workflows are fantastic to remind customers and our team of tasks and deadlines. Updating our service charge was easy and the batch update feature saved me so much time. The new package option is great and the group menu items is fantastic for so many of our menu items and reduces the need to manually type everything into our BEO's ### 2. Seamless Event Planning from start to finish **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Vanessa R. | Group Booking Coordinator, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 23, 2024 **What do you like best about Event Temple?** Their team always provides me support within minutes. Whether it's a general question about the program, or if there is something that needs fixing- they are always there. Even their AI bot is helpful and can provide support within seconds. **What do you dislike about Event Temple?** There is nothing I dislike about the program **What problems is Event Temple solving and how is that benefiting you?** Allows me to use email templates, manage multiple events at once. Create BEO's. Manage tasks. Integrate with stripe for deposit. ### 3. Many good features with some horrible shortcomings **Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Ben O. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 07, 2023 **What do you like best about Event Temple?** The ability to manage event bookings from space reservations to food menus and invoicing, proposals, etc in one system. The system also has task management, emailing integrated within. Decent customization options via custom fields. Overall it's a good system, but there are some really big shortfalls that I wish I'd known before signing up as it may have changed my mind. I still recommend Event Temple for some use cases, but for organizations with many users, research the limitations of user access levels. As we are fully invested in the system at this time, we will continue to hope for feature updates! Customer service team is helpful. **What do you dislike about Event Temple?** -Accounting & Invoice controls don't exist- any user can edit an invoice/apply a discount without notification to anyone, invoices can be deleted, and there's no way to get it back. -No past-due payment reminders. -No ability to limit what users can do - it's either full or view-only access, nothing in between. -Documents, Bookings, etc. can be deleted with no way of restoring them. No history of document changes - let's say you create a proposal for a prospect. They ask for changes and you make those changes. Unless you make a new proposal, there is no way to reference the old one. Further, the system sends links to documents not attachments, so if you or a staff member accidentally edit a proposal instead of creating a new one, you cannot look back at what you previously did. -Electronic signature function is not legally compliant in the US. -Reporting is limited. No ability to create a custom report; you're at the mercy of the limited filters within the provided reports. A lot of data is non-reportable, including custom fields -No reminders for a client to sign a document; we have to manually check and email the client to say, "Your contract (or any doc) is not yet signed." -No expiration of documents - if you send a contract, for example, you can set a due date, but the system will allow the client to sign it past the due date. -No ability to void a document, contract, proposal, etc. -"CRM" leaves much to be desired. One example - No alerts for duplicate contacts unless they share the same email address. **What problems is Event Temple solving and how is that benefiting you?** Managing the rental of our venue spaces, creating proposals and contracts, BEO, and invoicing with some limitations. The integrated emailing is a nice way to see communication of others with a client. ### 4. Event Temple - CRM and Events system easy to use! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Pier-Olivier L. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** February 02, 2023 **What do you like best about Event Temple?** - Almost everything is customizable and be adapted for your needs - Simple to keep tracking of business relations with the clients - Support team responds fast - University for training is helpful for new employee **What do you dislike about Event Temple?** - Missing the day of the week in the Event diary (calendar) organized by day - Text style in a formatted document is not always kept **What problems is Event Temple solving and how is that benefiting you?** - We were doing all by hand in a Word before installing Event Temple. We improved our efficiency and saved a lot of time with the system. We now have time to process the inquiries for an event. - We saved time by sharing a link to see the contract instead of doing a PDF. More than that, we can e-sign the contract for either the client or us. We make a difference for the planet with no paper printed. - We can produce sales and events reports which help us to plan our strategy to reach our budget and objectives. ### 5.

The system is also very responsive compared to other systems we've worked with. **What do you dislike about Event Temple?** Accounting integration is a bit of a challenge if you're using QBO instead of the built-in ET invoicing system. Workarounds are possible with Zappier. Feature requests are well managed and incorporated regularly, keeping ET fresh and always trying to bridge any shortcomings. **What problems is Event Temple solving and how is that benefiting you?** We rely on Event Temple to track and manage our catering operations. It generates proposals for customers and BEOs for our staff which is just a tiny part of its abilities. ### 8.
