From event organizers
Hear from the teams using Dryfta.
“I like the whole experience of organizing an event on the Dryfta platform. It is very stable and has lots of features. The Dryfta platform is highly recommended to everyone looking for a feature rich platform to manage events of any type.”
Peter Raeves, IT Director, European Tissue Repair Society
“Dryfta offers tons of great features and it takes a little time to explore everything. Invest the time and really check it out—the results are worth it in time and cost savings. I researched countless platforms for event registration and abstract management, and couldn’t find anything else this robust at this price point.”
Tamye Riggs, Executive Director, Association Typographique Internationale
“I love the fact that Dryfta is well suited for using for conferences, and that academics conferences fit into this just as well as commercial ones. The straightforward flow from start to finish – including easy integration of payments – is a big, big plus.”
Ian Giles, Resident Assistant, The University of Edinburgh
“The platform is simple to use, has great templates to help you develop content and personalise the platform that you develop. The end result is a very professional site that add value to audience engagement and has resulted in very positive feedback from the businesses, academics and government agencies that we work with.”
