FanSnap Is The New Kayak For Event Ticket Searches
- aditya 18y agoMore vendors and reach than TicketStumbler?! IMPOSSIBLE! EDIT: That was tongue in cheek, since when did 'more features' and 'more interactive images' make something a better product? I thought 'less' was in these days.
- fallentimes 18y agoHaha I think we have a similar number of events (we just added theater tickets this week), but they do have more vendors. However, many of the long tail sites they include also list tickets on Ticketsnow, Stubhub and Ticketnetwork so they're already included on TicketStumbler anyway. I'll give credit where it's due though; they've done a great job.
- jmorin007 18y agoAgreed. Sometimes "more features" and "more interactive images" doesn't always translate into a better experience for the user. I may be a bit biased on this one, but I'm curious to know where the 10 million that they raised went to? Some more features and more interactive images? I have a feeling that Ticketstumbler will out perform in the long run as they're still motivated by the "innovate or die" mentality.
- keltecp11 18y agoVery cool.
- kyro 18y agoAlthough FanSnap has a lot more result filtering functionalities, and a more in depth visual ticket system, which are all wonderful, their crappy interface makes me uncomfortable. I think a big area most ticket aggregators are missing out on, and that TicketStumbler is assumedly working on, is user notification when a band/team/etc. of interest is playing locally. I hate having to hear about these things from friends or by stumbling upon a band's Myspace only to find out they're playing in town tonight.
