Case Study 1

One of important issues within conference management system - is attendees’ lodging reservation/booking. For cases when conference organizers offer certain rooms, apartments for lodging, it is important to provide reliable functionality to enable people secure reserving/paying/putting rooms or hold, etc. Plone-based conference solution for such cases includes advanced system where Plone comes integrated with payment processor (e.g. Authorize.net) and/or customer relationship management system (e.g. Salesforce). Such integration enables secure online payment and registration/payment tracking management. As a result, conference manager can have all occupants information in one place and see how payment process is carried on. Read more about this case.

Case Study 2

Another conference registration system, Quintagroup provided for Danish customer, included rich conference scheduling/registration features. To enable this we developed a special folderish content type with lots of fields for detailed structured info about the conference, such as:

  • Date frames and number of tracks that can take place simultaneously, according to which conference schedule table is generated.
  • Maximum number of attendees limits number of people, who can register for the conference. As soon as this number of people registers, conference registration closes.
  • Conference arranger, contact person and attendees to take part in the conference.
  • Selectable list of academic issues and disciplines to be discussed.

All conference info is displayed on conference view in different portlets next to conference schedule. Then speeches are added to appropriate conference days/tracks as simply as pointing on the desirable hour on the schedule view, and filling speech info (basic info, time frames, number of allowed attendees).

Every speech added into conference table can be selected by coming attendees. Site visitors can select talks they are interested in and register for attendance by providing their contact/personal info. Information about all registered attendees is collected in a attendees view, and it is possible to send newsletter to all registered users at once.
