Strengths

- Clean, intuitive UI focused solely on ticket discovery and purchase (review: 'Simple and fast—no distractions')
- Extensive catalog of current Broadway productions across NYC theaters
Weaknesses

- Frequent out-of-stock issues during peak demand (review: 'Tried 3 times—always sold out')
- No waitlist or notification system for sold-out shows (review: 'Would’ve paid more if I could be notified')
- No filtering by seat type, view, or accessibility (review: 'Can’t see which seats are wheelchair accessible')
