Who Audience View is for

Who it is not for

Keep it, or make your own?
Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.
Keep it
The plain part of Audience View you could make: reports and forms. What surrounds it you could not. The 2 things listed below take a company, not a weekend.
That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 57 of the 79 other event ticketing platforms grade higher.
What you could make
- Reports and forms: an app builder makes these well.
What you could not
- Selling tickets and checking them at the door.
- The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
What this rests on. Audience View’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
