Number 1 in Utility and Value

by aprilschmitt27

I have 37 active plugins on my site and have tested more than 100 (mostly membership and events). Events Manager is number 1 in utility and value, beyond a shadow of a doubt! The display of the Full Calendar is awesome. I’m not a coder and built only one website. The learning curve was slow and I’m definitely not using it to it’s full potential. But I love the varied customizations that I can do and my users rave about using it. Plus an exciting future is ahead, for me to learn how to utilize it even more. We’d be willing to pay some more annually to get more complex support directly from EM. ~April

Works great!

by georgegharrison

Works great. Feature packed. Easy to pickup and just go with it.

Exactly the plugin I was looking for!

by VERYA (verya.ca)

Finally, a complete calendar/events/booking plugin that gives us all the tools to customize it efficiently compared to other popular plugins. From now on, I will always be using this plugin for my clients. Kudos!

Best and most customizable events plugin

by Gerard Blanco (sixaxis)

This is hands down the best events plugin out there. It is true that it might be a little bit complicated for non-technical users, but that's precisely why it's the best, because it lets you edit all its templates, emails and more from scratch, writing your HTML. Add to this the fact that supports WPML and Stripe and you have a winner.

Amazing Customer Service

by dwebber

This plugin does everything we needed it to do. We had a bit of a hiccup activating the pro license on our development site but Marcus from EM Support was quick to respond to our call for help and solved the problem in less than 12 hours. As far as plugins go, this is the most rapid response I've ever had from a developer. I am very impressed.

You will lose your bookings....

by graftedin

....if you even look at your event funny. I noticed 1 small mistake in how I set up a recurring event, I changed it and ALL THE BOOKINGS ARE GONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They aren't even in the database so I could try to manually rescue them. They are just gone. Oh, you changed your event I guess you don't need your bookings any more. Who thought this was a good idea?!

Great functionality

by hankenstein

Updated Review: I fixed my issue, and the plug-in is working great. Excellent for a free plug-in, and has a built-in state filtering mechanism that was critical to my purposes. In case anyone else runs into the same issue I had using this with Elementor and OceanWP theme: When I activated this plug-in, my fullwidth header became boxed. What worked for me was removing the header from the OceanWP theme library, and rebuilding it in the Elementor Theme builder. No more conflict.

hard to manage options and settings

by Valeria (valerfium)

it seemed a bit complicated to set up and not user friendly

This plugin rocks! | Developer's delight

by devinu

I love this plugin and it has a lot of tertiary support from the community. There is even a plugin to replace Google Maps with Open Street Maps, which I love. It has a lot of shortcode tools, which is why I would call it "developer's delight"!

Almost everything possible

by Heiko Mitschke (Antares7)

A really great plugin with a lot of options and it is very flexible. You can easily modify output with the plugin's settings page or even modify a huge amount of template files if necessary. Thank you for sharing and developing this excellent plugin!
