Replace Google Sheets for Events

Stop tracking event data in spreadsheets.

For organizers tracking event data and attendees in spreadsheets

Where Google Sheets limits you for events

Google Sheets was not built for event management. Here is where it leaves gaps.

Manual data entry for every attendee and ticket sale
No public-facing event pages or ticket purchasing
Formulas and formatting break as sheets grow
No automated confirmations, reminders, or check-in tools
Google Sheets
Free (manual effort)

Google Sheets is free, but tracking events manually costs time. Event Schedule automates attendee tracking, and the Pro plan at $5/month adds ticketing with automatic sales data.

About Google Sheets

Google Sheets is a go-to tool for event organizers who need to track attendees, manage guest lists, and organize event details. But spreadsheets were not built for event management - they require manual data entry, have no attendee-facing features, and become unwieldy as events grow.

Google Sheets's strengths

  • Flexible data structure for any type of tracking
  • Real-time collaboration with team members
  • Free and available to anyone with a Google account

Why switch to Event Schedule?

Spreadsheets require manual data entry for every sale and attendee. Event Schedule tracks everything automatically with a live dashboard.

  • Automatic tracking of ticket sales, attendees, and check-ins
  • CSV export when you need spreadsheet-format data for analysis
  • REST API for custom integrations with your other tools
  • Live check-in dashboard instead of a static spreadsheet
