Why I won?t attend your conference

The need for an Open Source Event Management software
2007-11-09 19:10:00 I get tons of email asking me for a suggestion for a complete event management open source software. I must say I am a bit embarrassed with the subject because there is no complete solution for planning. There are a lot of good project management, paper submission, accounting, CRM, office suites softwares. But not event management. Event planning is a little of all the above. Therefore I am convinced that the discipline we love deserves a damn well software, comprehensive and free! It is a paradox to me that the field where humans get pretty close to computers has no software to help. Oh wait there are several softwares out there but you have to pay good dollars to get them. Reality is that not all the event planners work in great companies with big monies. There are event planners like me that started their own business with limited resources. I have always stressed that a spreadsheet can help you in thousands of ways. That doesn’t mean that I won’t be happy with a co... More About: Software , Open Source , Management , Open

First of all registration is crucial. It helps in several aspects: it gives you an idea on how much people will participate to your event it gives you a clear picture of the profile of your participant it shows you likes and dislikes of the participant it could help you with dietary requirements thus avoiding last minute buffet changes if automated it could help the participants to start interacting before the event Anticipation In order to achieve all these beautiful things I usually apply my rule of registration. It has to be anticipated as much as possible. All the data that comes with registration are of utmost importance for the event. Moreover, suppliers will ask you definite numbers with an embarrassing anticipation. My idea is that you can pre-sell virtually every kind of event out there. You j...
