A Brief History
Box Office Xpress, the world's first Windows ticketing system, started out over 11 years ago as a program that was best suited for small theatres, schools and other types of similar-sized venues. Over the years, it has evolved into an extremely stable, rich program that is widely used by theatres, schools, museums, and the theatrical and athletic departments at colleges and universities.
When it became time to create a more feature rich product that would be more suitable to much larger venues, Box Office Xpress was renamed Box Office Xpress Junior. At the end of 1999, a brand new ticketing system was released that carried the Box Office Xpress name. This new program was re-designed entirely from the ground up.
Although the user interface is sometimes similar, it is worth clarifying that Box Office Xpress Junior is not a feature-reduced version of Box Office Xpress. These are two completely independent programs.

Also referenced as BOX Jr, this program handles all the basic functionality you would expect from a ticketing system, such as - reserved and general admission seating ; design your own seating layouts ; setup pricing schemes and price types ; single ticket, voucher and subscription sales ; events ; track customers ; reports ; mailing labels ; thermal ticket and dot matrix ticket printing ; and much, much more.
The general rule of thumb is that venues doing reserved seating who have 600-800 seats or less, generally prefer BOX Jr. Venues with more seats than that may lean towards the additional features found in Box Office Xpress. This is not set in stone. And venues with several thousand general admission seats, such as some College athletics or outdoor venues, are perfectly content with BOX Jr.
BOX Jr is priced with small and non-profit organizations in mind. Considering it's a high quality, niche market product in an industry where ticketing systems can easily reach over $100,000 just to start, to say this is the best value out there, would be a huge understatement.
BOX Jr has been rock solid since early 2000, which brings high confidence to the consumer, knowing they are using an extremely stable software program.

Also referenced as BOX, this advanced program adds well over 170 major new features and enhancements to what you would find in BOX Jr. These features are too extensive to cover in this topic, but additional information can be obtained as you research this website.
Unlike BOX Jr, the type of organization that would find BOX
appealing is very broad. If BOX Jr is not applicable for your type of
application, then BOX is the product to evaluate further.
What's the most noticeable difference between BOX and BOX Jr?
Depending on your priorities, perhaps the most noticeable difference is how reserved seating is handled. You create your seating layouts in BOX Jr using sections of up to 600 seats per section. This is in a 30 seat (across) by 20 row (deep) layout. You can still create as many sections as you want. BOX, on the other hand, has no realistic restrictions on the number of seats per section.
