Integrations: Extending the Functionality of Armada Abstract Management Software

.Managing a conference and overseeing a call-for-papers is demanding. One of the first questions people ask about Armada is our capacity for integration with other tools. The answer: we’ve got you covered.

We place a lot of value on integrations. OpenWater, our flagship application and review platform, has hundreds of native integrations. We offer many specialized integrations for Armada. We use an API (application protocol interfaces) development framework.

Conference App Integrations

Conference app integrations are an essential part of event planning. Two of the most popular integrations include:

• Coreapps
• Guidebooks

Third Party Database Integrations (CRM/AMS)

Armada flawlessly integrates with the gold standards of customer relationship systems.

Connect Armada to the vendors below for additional, live-event functionality. For example, integrations can verify membership or look up co-authors and co-presenters. Another integration allows attendee filtering between who submitted a paper versus who registered for the conference.

A commonly used API integration are “field lookups”. See an example of a field lookup in action below (larger version here):

Combine Armada or OpenWater with a third party tool like Zapier and the integrations are nearly endless.

Conference Registration

Speaker verification, registration, and drag-and-drop speaker session building are core features of Armada. Participants choose their preferred conference track. Administrators can track the popularity of sessions and other key data.

Apps provide additional functionality, too. For example, speakers or their representatives can pre-pay pay at registration.

Connect Armada with these useful, in-person registration apps:

• Certain
• CVENT
• eTouches

Custom Integrations

We develop specialty integrations for clients, too. Here’s kudos from a client:

“I’m not used to vendors so perfectly hitting all the technical requirements on the first pass so I was almost a little speechless there”

Choose OpenWater’s Armada. We can help you build the best conference your program has ever hosted.
