No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

    I’ve used Eventful on just the one site so far but I wish I’d known about it before. The display options on the free version gave me enough additional control on the display of event feeds that I didn’t need to pay for the pro version of Events Calendar. Also, there was an issue with later events displaying on the full events list. I raised this in the forum and got a quick response. When their suggested actions didn’t fix the issue, I was advised to raise a support ticket, which I did. The team came through with a fix within a couple of hours. Very impressive considering I don’t have their pro subscription.

    After experiencing issues with the module that I couldn’t resolve, the team offered to help and take direct action on my site, and they took the time to do so. Everything is back to normal now, and I’m very happy about that.Thanks again to the Themeatelier team for their follow-up!

    I am loving the layout options for The Events Calendar. I’m using this plugin for clients who want more control over their layouts but don’t want to always come through a developer to get small changes. It’s doing the job wonderfully.I am also impressed with the fast and responsive support. Thanks guys, keep it up!
