Hear From Real Theatres
"We did an emergency switch to Ludus in the middle of our run... I was totally blown away at how easy it was to get set up and running with Ludus."
"By the way, I just switched to you guys from Ticket Spice, which we have used for years, and I am so much happier with your program. It is so much more user friendly."
"The first thing that reeled us in was how low the fees were... We've been impressed again and again with the customer service and willingness to implement new ideas."
