Blackthorn's updates occasionally break existing features, but they're always super-quick to correct them. For this reason, I recommend always testing fully in a Sandbox before migrating updates to Production environments. Which is something you should be doing anyway...

The support from the Blackthorn team is unlike any I have experienced. This product is worth it alone just because of the amazing people behind this platform and how willing they are to help (shoutout Jared and Noah!) With 10 years of being in the workforce and utilizing many platforms, I have never come across a more helpful, people focused, "what can we do to make this product work for you" attitude. The Blackthorn team truly wants to help and are committed to making sure that you, the customer, are using the product in its full capacity. Particularly, their open office hours have been a game changer. AT ANY TIME, I can schedule a 15-30 minute 1-1 with a specialist (within their scheduled business hours) to help with any problem I am having. This has saved me countless hours back and relieved so much frustration on the user-facing end. They are responsive, helpful, and just an absolute joy to work with!

The main problems I find with this product is the complexity of some of the items. Often it can take a lot of clicks to accomplish what you're hoping to get done. The email template feature and form feature can be quite annoying. You have to make a form for pretty much every event, so just to set up a robust registration, you might need to make 2-4 forms ahead of time, then complete the registration. It's also not always clear what the forms do or where they end up once you insert them. It can take some digging to sort this out.

I think it's also not always attractive to the user, which can be discouraging for more youthful generations to be excited about. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is nothing I don't like about this program, it's hard to say that it does anything wrong, I could include that the integrations are a bit poor, but I don't see them as necessary, the truth is that within the program you have everything you need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As a digital platform manager at the Royal Photographic Society, I have been working with the Customer Success Team, Support Team and Enablement Team to update our platform, which has been outdated for about 18 months. The teams have been impeccable; I couldn't ask for a more supportive bunch of people.

As someone with ADHD/Dyslexia, I struggle with learning new technologies, but they have all been amazing and supportive. Nothing is too big for them, and they are happy to explain stuff repeatedly until I understand it and go above and beyond to ensure the platform works flawlessly.

They have made the upgrade project easy, and I have grown professionally and personally by collaborating with the teams mentioned above to enhance my experience with Blackthorn.

The platform has also allowed our volunteers to create events to a high standard and customize the platform to make the UX/UI of their lives so much easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
