Easy Peasy
Was easy to get set up and make a test order using the Paypal sandbox. I don't know why this plugin isn't more popular.

Solid plugin for events
Overall really good plugin, easy for users to use and easy for customers to navigate and purchase tickets. Support is available if you have issues with any of the functions.

Nifty little plugin
An easy way to sell tickets for your own events without incurring large fees that companies like Ticket Tailor charge. Support is good too, I had a problem with the way the plugin way displaying and Scott sorted it for me very quickly

Works well, great support
I wasn't happy with the high fees at Eventbright, so I installed Paypal Events on my Wordpress site. I just used it for my first event and it worked beautifully. The developers were really helpful even though I was using the free version. Will buy the full version now...

Does what's needed very well.
I wanted a small, lightweight, easy to configure ticket sales and check-in plug-in for our once a year, 3 performance in a weekend Old West Celebration. I think I've found the perfect answer in Easy PayPal Events. In a couple of months, after our 2016 event, I'll know for certain. Not that I'm expecting any surprises. If your goal is to sell tickets for your organization's own events and not run a ticket agency or event management company, I cannot begin to extol the features and ease of use of this plug-in to do it justice. It is brain-dead simple to set up and the Pro version is a steal at the price. Heck, even our members who have fallen off a horse too many times can work with it.
