The most user friendly software I've ever used!
What do you like best?
Cadmium makes what would normally be a complicated and mundane process insanely easy and fun. The admin side of this site is so user-friendly, and the front end is perfect for the speakers and attendees using it. I love all of the tutorial videos, the monthly webinars and help tips on each page. The interface is colorful and fun which is very pleasing to experience. When they recieve feedback they make changes to the system to make it more user friendly.
What do you dislike?
Sometimes the boomerang system can get frustrating. It is supposed to make communication with the product managers easier but the process can be cumbersome and sometimes the response time can be slow and I'd just rather send an email.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you have an event with many moving parts - this event management system is a no brainer, it makes everything so easy for everyone involved. From the call for proposal process to the reviewing process to speaker on-boarding and speaker task management, to the survey harvester and mobile app, everything needed to make our event work starts and ends with Cadmium.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
We hold a biannual international conference with a call for proposal process involving over 100 reviewers, we end up with 70-90 total speakers, and we award continuing education - Cadmium is the one stop shop for all of this, they make it so easy and saves us so much time while also allowing us more interaction with our speakers, vendors, and attendees.
