All-in-one event management platform

Dryfta all-in-one event management platform is a true ecosystem of event technology created and managed by Dryfta and sold at transparent and low prices. From tools for badges and check-in to mobile event apps, registration, abstract submissions, websites, virtual meetings, event scheduling, gamification, and more.

The platform was launched to offer an alternative to “cash-strapped nonprofits” who needed a solution for hosting their events. It already offers a multitude of features that make it easy to organize successful events. Dryfta now introduces the free event platform, making it even easier to host events on your own.

Zapier Integration now Available for Dryfta

Zapier logo

Using Dryfta API, you can create your own apps and integrate Dryfta platform with third-party web applications. However, most customers are not able to make use of APIs due to lack of developer resources and funds. Zapier makes it very easy for customers without technical know-how to use Dryfta API for automating workflows between Dryfta and third-party apps.

What is Zapier
Zapier is a task automation tool which connects Dryfta with other web apps eg. Hubspot, Salesforce, Mailchimp etc and automates workflows between them. With Zapier, your data is moved between your apps automatically so you and your team can focus on more important work. For example, to move contacts from Dryfta to Hubspot CRM, simply connect these apps using Zapier’s triggers & actions and it would automatically sync data between Dryfta & Hubspot every 15 minutes.

Full-featured iPhone Event App for your next Event

dryfta-ios-app

The Dryfta event app for iOS was launched last week.

With this update, we have covered one of our major milestones. Similar to our Android app, for organizers, the iOS app includes the ability to send push notifications to attendees, a QR code scanner to scan QR codes to checkin attendees to event and sessions. Also, it is automatically synced with the website data in real-time so whatever updates organizers push to the website would be synced and displayed on the app as well.

For attendees, the iOS app has a program schedule page listing program agenda, ability to connect with an attendee and request their contact details, scan fellow attendees’ badges to collect contact details, view speakers details, browse general information pages, and engage in forum discussions.

If you wish to try the iPhone app, please download it from the app store.

To see the latest features added and improvements made to the Dryfta event platform, go to our System Status page.

Dryfta offers a free trial account for 30 days to all universities and non-profits to try the platform with up to 30 free registrants.

LinkedIn Company Pages is now integrated with Dryfta Organizations Manager

Dryfta-LinkedIn-integration

We have been working on this integration for some time now. Although, this is only the first version of the LinkedIn Company integration with Dryfta platform, we have laid out the basics. In future versions, we would be able to fetch real time news and updates from company pages. However, since this data is coming from a third-party, most of what is possible depends on LinkedIn’s policies related to its data use.

In our first LinkedIn company integration, we have created a tool to manage Organizations listings. Admins can add companies under Organizations tab and later use it to add contacts. Organizations also list the companies and organizations as added by users during registration. Each organization would have basic information including country and HQ location along with the complete list of contacts from that organization.
