Cvent Abstract Management

We use Abstract Management to collect potential presentations for our Symposium each year. We also use it to collect award nominations for our Innovation of the Year award which we also award at our Symposium. We like that you can send out the link provided and anyone can submit. We set up our judges/reviewers and it is easy to include instructions on the portal so they know how to judge. This year we are utilizing the ability for the reviewers to receive emails as submissions are received so that they can review as they come in instead of reviewing all of them at the same time closer to the deadline. It is super efficient in sending out acceptance and rejection emails. We also like that Abstract Management works together with Events and we can pull in the sessions into those events straight from Abstract Management.

• It has a positive impact on gathering attendees for our events by allowing them to submit presentations and receive emails to register.

We mainly use it for speaker management for our conferences. We use it to be able to customize our forms and it allows our speakers to submit their content to us as well. It’s easy to use and speakers can do it from their phones. I can easily accept or reject speaker submissions as well.

I use Cvent Abstract Management in conjunction with the Cvent Event Management platform to help one of my clients manage their abstract submissions from authors. Prior to selecting this software, they were using a survey platform to capture the submissions and dispersing it to their reviewers manually. They receive between 70-100 abstracts each year so the work to manage them was rather tedious. Cvent Abstract Management helps not only the collection of the submissions, but also the reviewing, approval, and scheduling process.

• The ability to schedule sessions directly from the Cvent Abstract Management portal.
• The ability to have reviewers review the abstract blind.
• The ability to have flexible options for abstract submission.

• Our client has used Cvent Abstract Management for two years now. They saw almost a 50% increase in abstract submissions year over year.
• While the product has saved the client time in sending acceptance/rejection notices and scheduling abstracts to their event, the output of the reporting has still been an issue; a lot of manual adjusting has to take place with the data for them to utilize it properly.

Cvent Abstract Management was a fantastic addition to our Cvent suite for a conference. It was easy to follow, reviewers could easily access the submissions and it linked to the Cvent event management platform. It was a one stop shop!

• Ease of use
• Integration with the Event management platform

• Saved us time on implementing the agenda

We regularly gather groups and organize events in furtherance of our grant-making work. There are a number of logistics that need to be organized in preparation to track and prepare for this work. This includes payment/finances, meals, lodging, transportation, and the details regarding presentations and other related needs.

• Simple design.
• Efficient and reliable.
• Capable human support staff.

• This has allowed us to do things that would have been impossible without.
• Cvent effectively fades into the background of the work itself, it’s simplicity makes itself “invisible."
• We know we can always rely on the product support team.
