Legacy Parks and Rec Ticketing Platforms Can be a Challenge.
It’s worth it to make the switch.

“With our parks and rec software, we still have open support and feature request tickets from the 1990s. So kudos to TicketSignup for getting things done.”

Ashley Ferguson — Frederick County Parks and Recreation

“We kept track of all the issues we had with the internal tool, so when it came time to make the case internally for TicketSignup we had a lot of proof that the current tool wasn’t able to keep up with our needs.”

Lisa McClendon — Dallas Parks & Recreation

“Upselling add-ons before the event was a powerful revenue driver for us this year. And using the Ticket App to fulfill items on site gave us a complete solution.”

Ashley Ferguson — Frederick County Parks and Recreation

“Any time an event wraps up we have to send our final numbers… It’s helpful to be able to easily pull those reports.”

Lisa McClendon — Dallas Parks & Recreation
