Trumba Reviews

We picked Trumba to replace a homegrown calendar system that became too unwieldy to maintain, and we haven't looked back. It fits so well into our internal and external websites that people don't even realize it is a different service! If you want peace of mind regarding your calendar and event management, I can't recommend Trumba enough.

I love Trumba! We have integrated It into our intranet and public site. We have used it for over 12 years, and I can't remember it ever going down—we never worry about its reliability. It is also flexible and very customizable. As well as making it possible for people to sign up for events, we use it to collect event registration fees, which integrates well with our payment processor, enabling us to avoid holding on to sensitive credit-card data.
I especially love how easy it is to communicate with people who have registered for events using its email notification features. It also makes collecting custom information needed for events easy (such as dietary needs, T-shirt size, or other event-specific information.)
Another pro is the ability to designate multiple calendar editors who can then manage their own sub-calendars. This takes a lot of the burden off of the system administrator and gives people the access they need. The permissions model works very well, making it possible to give sub-administrators access to only the calendars they need.
I also feel like Trumba's support has been top-notch. We are supported by people who really know the product. I know that if I need something, they will respond quickly. And they continue to make feature upgrades that make a real difference to the user experience.
I could go on and on!

I hope they implement a way to register for "sub-events," e.g., breakout sessions, someday. This is a feature we sometimes wish it had. Or the ability to charge for add-ons (like T-shirts, for example, or meals). But to be fair, this isn't meant to be a full-fledged event management tool.

We use Trumba as a university-wide event calendar and people love the features. We use it for not only activities and events, but academic calendar information, and course related events that students can attend. We are always finding new ways to use it to solve existing problems.

It is a powerful calendar system that lets us maintain all of our university events in one platform and we are constantly find more ways to use it. Our website, portal, LMS, and mobile app all pull the calendar content and it helps keep everything in sync.

None that I know of. We use it a lot and love it.

It has been an asset to our organization and a great savings over other platforms we have used. We can change things as we need to and update the attendees with ease. We have been pleased with Trumba.

It is very easy to use and set up programs, sell tickets and offer refunds. Great customer service with a person who knows your business and you.

I would like more features. Ways for things to show up on the calendar. I would like to be able to feature coupons for the sale. I would like more options for the email blast and a way of searching the data base for users rather than scrolling through all the names.

Trumba is a great resource to keep our events and spaces organized. It is also very cost effective considering some other platforms cost a lot more.

I love all of the features of Trumba. We were using hand written schedules before and the colors and time blocking keep everything so organized. I also love that we can sell tickets to our events and easily keep track of everything leading up to the event.

Trumba not integrating with another system we use... I wish they talked to each other.

Trumba has made a big difference in keeping our team on track and our audience engaged—really glad we chose this platform!

Trumba has been a game-changer for our event management. It keeps everything organized in one place, making it easy to update and share calendars without a lot of back and forth. The registration and tracking features are seamless, and the automated reminders and follow-ups are a huge time-saver. With everything centralized—from event details to attendee tracking—it’s so much easier to stay on top of logistics. Trumba has truly streamlined our planning process and made a big difference in keeping our team and audience on track.

Because it is so robust there is a steep initial learning curve to get the settings just the want you need them.

We absolutely couldn't function without Trumba's user-friendly, robust system for keeping track of all of our university events. It is so easy to create multiple custom calendars that can be embedded site wide. Of equal value to us: We have received incredible support from our account representative. He is never too busy to jump online with us to walk us through needed modifications and customizations.

Trumba is highly customizable and flexible, and syncs beautifully across all our integrated systems. We have multiple calendars that reflect all facets of student life and come from several locations-- academics, athletics, extracurriculars, etc. They all come together easily in Trumba!

I can't think of any cons. If I could, I'm sure our account representative would address them with us!
