Pretty sweet
We have tried several event plugins and EventON is one we really liked. There are lot of great features and loads really fast. It has been around for quite some time and they seems to support it very well with new features and fixing bugs. We also liked the vast collection of addons with EventON Full. Keep it up guys!

Support is top notch
I had a problem with eventon lite after an update and the support was super fast and kind. The Problem got solved right away with the next update.As we only use eventon lite I can't rate eventOn, the price structure doesn't really work for us.

Good Plugin; Good Support
We use EventOn Lite as a calendar-only in conjunction with a ticketing platform. It works reasonably well and EventOn is always adding new features and fixes. One recent upgrade however broke the linking function we rely upon. A posting at the wordpress/eventon-lite support forum got prompt attention and a quick fix was provided.

Just what I needed
A good events calendar plugin is hard to find, so I was delighted to discover EventON, which meets all my needs and has plenty of options. And if you should ever need help, the support is excellent.

Great plugin with great support
Using it since years. Now we were missing an option to hide "change RSVP" and the EventOn team implemented it in the next release within 2 weeks. Great, thank you for always beeing on our side for years.

Great support, all questions and problems were resolved.
I had problems switching to a newer PHP version. The answers came quickly and helped everything run smoothly again.
