Buyer Summary
What Is Event Management System?
An event management system organizes the repeatable processes and records behind an event. It should make ownership, status, dependencies, and attendee-facing information easier to understand at every stage.
Map D supports the operational core of conferences and trade shows with connected floor plans, inventory, participant workflows, attendee tools, and reporting.
Core Capabilities
Build a More Connected Workflow
Repeatable Processes
