Cons
Con Not available
Con Need to find the data provider that suits your location
In a perfect world, all providers would provide the same level of accuracy. But in actuality, one service will have better predictions than others for your region.
Con Ticket cannot be manually cancelled / withdrawn by participants
Peatix currently does not have the ability to cancel their ticket by participants and must be done through contacting the event organizer. This will become a problem when event organizers do not respond to participants messages through Peatix.
