Ever run a conference? What's the best software to use?
roberte3: Usually the combination that I have been using for the events that I have planned, has been eventbright with pathable.comEventbright handles a lot of the registration problems very well. Although it falls down in the following areas, Paypal sucks natch, and it doesn't handle individuals buying more than one ticket well at all. i.e. 1 person buys 5 tickets for people at their company. All of the tickets belong to that person even if you want all of the different peoples names. The google checkout is a bit better than the paypal nightmare.Pathable is really great, because it can pull the xml feed of your attendees out of eventbright, and has a lot of community features for your attendees. It sets up groups, lets people self tag their interests, handles emails between the people attending and really helps you establish a community between the people coming to your event.Pathable also lets you print out fancy looking name badges with peoples names on them, and the names of people that they should talk to at the event (as an option). Anyway Pathable is good stuff.
