Event Registration Made EZ!

Category : Industry News , Software

January 6, 2019

urEZsignup-BizStrat2019After two years, urEZsignup will be spinning off to its own division.  This software began with a need for a non-profit event management system and was rolled out with an innovative admin login that integrated in real-time reports for common needs at events.  The check-in list, name badge creation and payment reports allow the event staff to easily manage check-in, follow ups, and more.  The event schedules and limits on workshops allow regrouping and consolidation to have a well-run event.  With the non-profit FlyTall, the group also benefits from the lower credit card processing rate as a non-profit entity serving youth in STEM and growth initiatives to prepare girls for careers in Science, Technology, Engineering and Math.
