We offer a proven complete plug-and-play solution for your online congress or online festival with everything you need - integrated into your own website. No need to develop or fix anything for your event, we've got your back. You can organise an online event without breaking the bank to pay us. Sit back and relax!
Your landing page
- you don't have to "make" a website, it is generated automaticly: automaticly generated speakers overview ánd automaticly generated interactive timezone-adjusted schedule.
- timetable, descriptions and handouts come from a regular Google Sheet which is continuously automaticly imported into the website
- speakers fill in descriptions biographies and handouts themselves, ánd choose their own timeslot (saves tons of email)
- save hours and hours of image processing and opening emails by simply sending our image-cut-tool link to trainers for receiving their image and let them cut a square out of their image themselves.
- optimised for mobile
- optional: registration system (linked to online payments, or open subscription)
- full assistance for integration into your website (supporting all frameworks incl. Wordpress/Drupal) or we provide a safe mini-site

Payments
- fully automated and secure online payments by Mollie (creditcards iDeal Sofort etc), or Wordpress WooCommerce, or Stripe, or manually add users on the day before the festival starts.
- fully automated invoices (customised with your logo and your legal/visual requirements), reminder mails before, feedback requests afterwards, and customers/payments overview by Sokati
Online Library
- trainers fill in their handouts themselves in the main schedule: you do not have to download and upload anything.
- you get access to our media cloud for trainers that do not use Google Docs/Slides or any other cloud solution
- at the end of the event, we download handouts and store them with the video recordings, so that everything stays available afterwards for the time period that you have chosen.
- we prepare videos from the recorded sessions: automatic downloading from Zoom, optimal post-processing (compression and occasional cutting) and making them available on our special media cloud.
- our self-hosted videos are réally not downloadable and are really not accessibly by a link.
- videos and handouts can also only be accessed when users are logged in
Organisational details that save you time
- a "Trainer Portal": upload and cut your portait-photo yourself, upload handouts, the manual and more
- an "Organiser Portal": add users, see our extensive statistics, tweak trainer images, and much more
- a Google Spreadsheet schedule that you can simply share with your speakers, so you do not have to waste any time copy-pasting any title/description/biography from e-mails into your website and schedule
- titles trainers times and handouts from the schedule automaticly upload to your landing and classroom every 30 min.
- concept e-mails for your speakers with festival instructions (proven to minimise e-mail traffic with you - a lot)
- goldens instructions for chat- and technical Zoom assistance (proven to minimise technical issues)
- tips on Zoom settings, or simply let us take care of all (nearly hundred) Zoom settings
- very fast e-mail support from us
- use our image tool to let trainers themselves create a square image (instead of hours editing and processing emails)
- you only pay for the components you use, and nothing when the event is cancelled
- modern up-to-date software which is continuously improved and upgraded
- several security measures make it hard to share credentials or to share Zoom information
- implicitly, a good night sleep because you can trust that our platform is safe and fully functional
- compressing of all videos and handouts afterwards, and translate videos in every language
A big thank you from me, the organizing team, tech support team and members of NVC community in Romania for this great platform, preparatory meetings, manuals and instructions and for your prompt, patient and continuous support!
