Spektrix works with arts and entertainment organizations - theaters, music venues, visitor attractions and many more - to help them build stronger relationships with audiences, donors and participants. Through a closely combined offer of technology, business services and partner solutions, we enable the organizations we work with to maximize ticket sales, increase engagement, build revenue and grow the efficacy and happiness of their teams.
Spektrix technology is a highly specialized, cloud-based customer relationship management (CRM) platform for ticketing, marketing and fundraising, designed around the unique needs of the live events industry. Users are supported to make the most of that technology through an exceptional program of training, consultancy and insight. And we facilitate connections with a network of expert partners, whose knowledge and solutions add even more opportunities for growth and positive outcomes for ourselves and our users.
Spektrix people work as a united team, embracing technology to connect home and office-based working based out of three sites in London, New York and Manchester. In our daily practice and our individual journeys, every team member - from software engineers to client facing teams and administrative staff - is encouraged to learn from, question and guide one another so that together we can achieve our mission: to work in partnership with organizations presenting arts, cultural and entertainment experiences to build a strong, vibrant and connected industry.
Spektrix is a SaaS product that provides the arts and entertainment industry with ticket sales, reporting, marketing, fundraising and CRM functionality. The Spektrix product aims to manage and facilitate access to all the data that underpins an organization running live events.
We build a variety of interfaces - from a web application that provides a day-to-day working environment for our users, through to APIs and web components that can be integrated into their websites. As we create new functionality we take a cloud native approach preferring PaaS solutions that allow us to focus on what we do best.
The engineering teams practice pair programming, agile delivery and test driven development, as well as continuous integration to build and run the Spektrix platform.
