Evaluation guide

How to evaluate a booking platform

A useful comparison follows one real booking from your website through checkout, the day of the visit, and the books. These are the questions to ask any vendor, including us.

Where to start

Three questions for every vendor

Pricing

One published price

$9.99 USD per month plus a 1% TicketOpus transaction fee. Stripe processing fees are separate.

Review pricing
Ask every vendor

Follow a real booking end to end

Ask to see one of your own bookings go from the website through checkout, a change or refund, the day-of manifest, and the payout report, not just the booking screen.

Request a tailored demo
Ask every vendor

Ask what is live today

For each feature or integration you depend on, ask whether it is available now, who supports it, and what moving your data will involve.

Plan your migration

Compare the complete journey

A feature checklist can hide where staff still rebuild context by hand.

  • Website, discovery, live availability, and checkout
  • Changes, manifests, resources, check-in, and communication
  • Payments, reporting, close, and audit evidence

Running an evaluation

A simple way to compare vendors

  1. 01

    Map the current workflow

    Write down how a booking moves through your business today.

  2. 02

    Name the must-work scenarios

    Pick the bookings, changes, and reports that have to work on day one.

  3. 03

    Review evidence side by side

    Ask each vendor to run those scenarios live, then compare the results.

  4. 04

    Choose the launch path

    Agree the migration plan and launch date with the vendor you pick.

Questions before launch

Straight answers before you decide.

Can TicketOpus start with one workflow?

Yes. The platform is designed so an operator can begin with direct booking or another priority workflow and add connected capabilities as the operation matures.

Does TicketOpus support an existing website?

Yes. Add the booking widget to your current site, or build a new site with the TicketOpus website builder.

How should we evaluate a migration?

Start with future bookings, catalog and schedules, customer records, payments and balances, integrations, domains, reporting, and the staff workflows that must work on launch day.

Are all integrations live today?

No. Stripe payments, the External API, webhooks, and SCIM directory sync are live. QuickBooks, Xero, OTA marketplaces, and Google Things to Do are not connected yet, so check with us about any connection your launch depends on.
