Testimonials

“We can automatically send a confirmation email with all the artist details needed for the promoter within 5 to 8 minutes with SystemOne, which is beneficial for our work progress. It speeds up the entire booking process. I have one place where I have all my information, and I can share it with externs."
Laura Bober
Project Manager at All Artists Agency
"SystemOne is very simple to use. Once you know how it works, it starts helping you and your artists manage shows more efficiently. I also love the SystemOne mobile app because it makes life easier for us. I don't need to produce any itineraries and our artists have access to all the booking details on SystemOne."
Sonia Ordoñez Alcantara
CEO at WEYKUP!
“We work with headliners, so we’re all about details. We have a customized advancing template that covers stage design, visuals, lights, PA system, warehouse, off-location, etc. Promoters can’t continue with the booking request without these details. It makes it easier to decide whether we want to work with them. This also keeps my inbox clean.”
Eddy Kruse
Booking Agent at Tote Sonne
“With SystemOne we organize the entire agenda in a single place. In addition to the editable fields, we can input the data of our promoters, artists, air tickets, and hotels. We’re able to export all this data in editable or non-editable files to send to each show’s stakeholders. All this is linked to the financial section within the system. It's wonderful.”
Diogo Chiapani
Marketing Manager at Criative Music
