The ability to delegate tasks and getting them done right and on time is the key to a successful event. For easier and efficient task management, it is important to have a well-planned, task-by-task approach for volunteers and admin staff and be able to hold them accountable for their tasks that they have been assigned with.
At times, attendees register twice using different email addresses for various reasons. For example, sometimes they forgot the password and instead of requesting a new password, they would simply create a new account. Or, if a subordinate has created an account for a user, and has not notified about the same, the user would unknowingly register again to create an account. There’re many other scenarios where duplicate accounts are created with each account holding some important information about the user. So, normally, the organizer would manually copy each piece of information from one account to another and then discard one of the accounts. This, however, results in lost time. Lots of lost time.

One of the reasons Dryfta event platform is used by universities, non-profits and corporate is the platform’s ability to collect abstract and paper submissions and assign them to reviewers, apart from other features that it is capable of.
This blog post quickly explains how authors can submit abstracts and manage submitted abstracts.
To access the abstract submission site, one needs to log in using email and password. To access the abstract submission site if one doesn’t have login credentials, author has to create an account first. After creating an account, go to the abstract submissions login page, and enter the login credentials (email and password) to log in to the abstract system.
Once logged-in, go to My Abstracts page and click on Submit Abstract button to submit an abstract or paper. To edit an existing abstract, click on the name of the abstract which you want to edit.
Authors can revise abstracts up until the last date for abstract submission. After that, authors can view abstracts but they cannot make changes. Admin has the option to open abstract editing after submission date for those abstracts which have been accepted.
A common approach to set up an academic or a nonprofit conference is to use an array of tools, e.g., WordPress, Eventbrite, Easychair, and Mailchimp. Then put your staff into multi-tasking mode and try to get your event off the ground.
What would it be like if you could access all of these features from a single platform, all fully integrated, making for a seamless, unified data flow? Dryfta event platform solves this issue of unstructured data flow caused primarily due to using one too many tools by offering a set of fully-integrated tools. Let’s see how Dryfta stacks up with each of these tools regarding features and functionality.
Here’s a list of some of the things that you can do using Dryfta:
Send out invitations – Use the Email Broadcast tool to send email campaigns, send emails to selected contacts, view campaign reports etc.
Handle registration – Form builder allows you to build registration forms with custom fields you want.
Enable participants to pay their participation fee in advance from their credit cards – Payment settings under Basics lets you choose various payment methods including PayPal, Credit Card (you will need a payment gateway like PayPal, Stripe, 2Checkout etc), Wire Transfer. We do not charge any fee on payments you collect. We only charge for the plan you purchase. See here: https://dryfta.com/plans

There’re more features which I wanted to mention here but I suggest you to explore your Dryfta platform and use them as per the need for your event.
As a company that provides event management software, we don’t just offer our product; we live by it. At Dryfta, we use Dryfta's Event CRM as our primary (and only) tool for managing our contacts, updating information, sending personalized emails, and running effective marketing campaigns. We use our CRM daily, which gives us a unique perspective into its capabilities—and how it can make a difference for event organizers like you.
When it comes to managing events, we know that organizing contacts and staying on top of communication is one of the most important—and sometimes one of the most time-consuming—tasks. That's why we built Dryfta’s Event CRM, which we believe is the best in the event industry for managing your contacts, centralizing data, and creating personalized experiences. And now, we’ve made it even better!
At Dryfta, we put our customers at the center of everything we do, and we take your feedback seriously. So, when we heard from event organizers that they needed more ways to manage contacts quickly and efficiently—especially when handling large groups—we listened. Today, we’re excited to announce some new features that will make managing your contacts even more powerful, flexible, and efficient.
Achieving Product-Market Fit (PMF) is a milestone every business aspires to. It signifies that your product meets the needs of your target audience effectively, solving a critical problem for a significant group of people. But PMF is more than just a buzzword—it’s a foundation for growth. Without it, no amount of marketing or promotion will lead to sustainable success.
If you’re organizing an annual event with regular attendees, it’s time to step up your game and offer them something extra. Building loyalty among your audience means giving them compelling reasons to come back year after year. One of the best ways to do this? Sell event memberships that provide exclusive perks like premium content access, discounts on tickets, and a personalized experience.
We regularly come across event planners asking this question about how Dryfta has so many features yet it is priced so low! Also, due to the fact that the average pricing of other event platforms, with a lot less features than Dryfta, is much higher, some event planners even find it too good to be true!
First and foremost, our primary mission was and will always be to help event planners engage attendees and produce new knowledge. To make it easy for them to do just that, we have made our event platform affordable. You ask how pricing Dryfta event platform low makes it easier for event planners to focus on attendee engagement?
Well, by not investing a large amount of money on an event platform, they are able to shift their focus from saving money, to engaging attendees and producing new knowledge. That’s how.
If our platform is priced so low, then how do we stay profitable? Well, thanks to our loyal bunch of returning customers and a steady flow of new customers, we are quite profitable and financially healthy and are able to maintain an all-round team of developers and designers who keep churning out new features, and a team of support staff for round the clock support. We just do not make ‘huge’ profits by charging exorbitant prices. That’s not what we do.
Are you organizing a scientific conference and managing abstract submissions? One of the challenges for event organizers is collecting fees for approved abstracts and papers efficiently. With Dryfta, this process is now simpler than ever. Our platform not only collects abstract submission and peer reviews but also allows you to accept payments for approved submissions—saving time and reducing manual effort.
