2Introduction
- In a conference management software, you do not
invest every day. So that you do not regret your
choice later, this will be well thought out. - That is why we are turning the tables today and
show you how to do it better.
31) You are not making any preliminary
considerations
- Before deciding on a conference management
software, you should first ask yourself the
following question - What must the software be able to do?
- Perhaps the type of event you have will require
specific requirements, or you may have special
requirements that the conference management
software should meet. - Formulate these before you go into the search for
a software for the management of your conference
42) You are not informed about the provider of the
conference management software
- The website of the provider promises the best
conference management software, but see the other
so synonymous? - Find out who is currently working with and what
customers are saying. - If no single customer voice can be found and the
most recent project completed in 2012, continue
the search for a conference management software
at a different location.
53) You do not want to spend money
- Conference management software that costs
nothing? - They exist. Free software, however, usually
reaches its limits fairly quickly during
conference management. - Therefore, do not expect too much, and certainly
no individual solutions, extensive support
services or a huge range of functions, when
choosing a free solution. - In the worst case, you will pay a high price for
a seemingly free conference management software
because you will have a much greater
administrative burden or you will be surprised to
find that important functions are not available
as expected in your time-critical project.
64) You are planning to pass by your participants
- Do not forget that your attendees are using the
conference management software, - for example, to sign up and submit
contributions. Therefore, the menu management
must not be overly complicated. - When designing the website, also think about the
users of mobile devices. The page should also be
displayed well on smaller displays. - The conference management software provider may
also provide an app like MLeads that will provide
all visitors with up-to-date information. Note
that the app should run on different operating
systems
75) You have not yet tested the conference
management software
- What the future software for your conference
management can do, you already know. - But have you already tested the functions?
- Whether the conference management software keeps
what you promises and the handling is truly
user-friendly, - you can find out for yourself provided that the
offer with an online demo or a test installation
gives you the opportunity.
86) You are not dealing with the topic of support
- We can get it by itself! Only the organizer
with the greatest success of the event will find
that the management of conferences usually has no
time to get to the bottom of any software problem
and to search for the right solution. - Just ask those who are familiar with it. The
prerequisite for this is, of course, that there
is someone with an open ear for your request. - Also, make sure that training is offered or ask
for specific advice on how the provider can
prepare you and your team to work with the
conference management software.
97) You do not know the exact prices
- What appears cheap at first can look quite
different on the bill at the end. - Check in advance which services are charged and
check whether there are any additional charges. - If the provider is covered here and does not
provide any specific information, another
conference management software is the better
choice.
108) They combine conference management software
from different vendors
- One software only for participant registration,
another for the abstract management, and a third
one with which you create the conference plan. - Even if each of the programs is running smoothly,
you will not work so effectively, because the
applications cannot interchange data. - Therefore, always opt for a single vendor whose
conference management software combines all the
features you need. This makes it possible, - for example, to compile the program
automatically from the accepted abstracts or to
send emails to the participants directly from the
conference management software. -
119) You do not have an overview of current numbers
- As an organizer, you should always know how your
conference is ordered. - How many payments are you waiting for?
- How long can abstracts be submitted?
- The right conference management software gives
you the answers without you having to count or
reckon. By the way, reminding you of pending
expert opinions and payments is usually the same
as with the mail function of the conference
management software.
1210) You do not know what happens to your
subscribers data
- because only the provider of the conference
management software has access to it. You do not
know why the addresses and bank data are actually
used and how long they are stored. - If you want more transparency, you should include
data protection as a further important point in
your list of decision-making criteria. - Ask about the privacy policies that apply to the
use of the conference management software, where
the servers are located, - where the data is stored, and what happens with
the data at the end of the event.
