Allevents.in is an event discovery and online ticketing platform that doubles as an event management tool. The platform helps you tap into an existing base of event-goers online and reach audiences more quickly than setting up a web page from scratch would.

Event setup is quick and easy. Integration with various social networks makes it easier to promote and market events. Ability to create discount codes is a much-needed functionality. The user interface could be simplified further to make it easier to navigate.

It has a short learning curve, and it’s easy to navigate. There is a high level of customization in the design and registration requirements when creating an event page. It needs an auto-save functionality on the event creation page. It lacks the ability to adjust the audience when sending out email campaigns or surveys.

Eventleaf is a tool that allows you to create and promote event pages, as well as register attendees and sell tickets. The free version of the tool allows you to register up to 100 attendees per year, regardless of the number of events. It also allows you to build event websites and set up marketing campaigns for events.

Odoo Events is open source software that offers features for all stages of the event planning process. You can use it to design and set up events pages, organize and schedule events on an event calendar, and manage attendee registrations. You can also use it to promote events via email marketing; integrate with social media, SEO tools, and Google Analytics; and do online and offline ticket sales.

Customizability of the interface. The tool is flexible enough to cater to the diverse needs of different users. Self-service means users have to fix any glitches or errors by themselves. Getting direct support from the vendor or affiliates is possible but can be pricey.

To help you evaluate event management solutions, here are some important points to keep in mind:

Size of events you plan to host:

Marketing and promotions needs:

Experts warn other hackers, like those working for a nation-state, could exploit hospitality breaches like Marriott’s to acquire details on the travel and spending habits of espionage targets, like CEOs and diplomats.

However, industry specific challenges like high employee turnover continue to expose the sector.[6] Additionally, even by adopting cutting-edge cybersecurity technologies, the important question of strategic implementation remains.

Traditional cybersecurity approaches are focused on reporting about intrusions after the fact, in what is known as an “incident response.” What this means is that an adversary—commonly referred to as a “hacker”—finds some way to gain access to a target and compromises it. The target can be accessed through vulnerabilities in web frameworks, internet browsers, or internet infrastructure such as routers and modems. Regardless of how they gain access, once an attacker is discovered, the forensics about the attack, including basic information known as Indicators of Compromise (IOCs) like IP addresses, domain names, or malware hashes, are shared across the cybersecurity community. These IOCs are then used broadly to thwart future attacks.

Rather than rely solely on the incident response and recovery methods that have been used for many years, a more proactive, sophisticated approach is needed. It will need to be designed to successfully recognize adversary methodology (and all the manners in which an adversary attempts to obfuscate their methodology) before attacks occur and at a meaningful scale. This kind of approach, when paired with incident response tactics, could provide true security to vulnerable, critical networks.

A TTP-based cybersecurity tool would work in concert with existing incident response, internally-focused cybersecurity efforts, adding a layer of prevention over the top of this vital but flawed process.

Additionally, a survey from Gartner's risk management practice found that 56% of business leaders rated themselves as "somewhat prepared," for the outbreak, with 11% relatively or very unprepared.

Companies are increasingly expecting that the coronavirus will adversely affect their businesses. Yet, because the exact impact of the virus is uncertain, compensation committees and executives are not making immediate changes to their organizations’ pay programs — at least for now

34% of companies expected the virus to have a "moderate or large negative impact" on their business over the next six months. 44% companies say their annual executive incentive plan has been or will be affected by coronavirus, but nearly one in five intends to adjust funding or targets for the plan.

A recent survey by Gartner’s risk management practice aligns with Willis Towers Watson’s findings; just 12% of Gartner’s 1,500-plus respondents believe their businesses are highly prepared for the impact of coronavirus, with 26% believing it will have a negligible impact at all.

56% of respondents rated themselves somewhat prepared, and 11% said they were either relatively or very unprepared

It’s nearly impossible to predict exactly if or how a particular scenario will unfold or even when

“Everybody’s looking at the same reports and speaking the same language from POS through accounting. We are more creative and have more valuable conversations,” said Shaughn Larisey of Larkburger.

Improve Audit Capability

when you tightly integrate your POS, back office and accounting system you will be more confident in your data and you will more rapidly audit a potential problem. 

a profit and loss revenue line item can be drilled down to the original POS transaction. A cost of goods line item can be drilled down to the inventory receipt.

Reduce Administrative Requirements – Improve Efficiency

In summary, the benefits of an integrated restaurant POS, back office, and accounting system may not always be obvious, but they are substantial when you know where to look. 

While paper menus, which have been around for centuries, still dominate the restaurant world, a growing number of restaurants are singing the praises of tablets to better serve their customers.

Now that menus are going digital, plenty of apps and software are vying for restaurateurs' attention. There are MenuPad and eMenu for menus, and Uncorkd and Wine List for wine.

One of the most robust is Aptito, which rolled out in mid-2011. It has intel on dishes and drinks

Empowering the diner turns out to be one of the greatest benefits, from the restaurant's perspective.

the menus also seem to encourage people to spend more: Since they debuted, Martorano says he has seen a 23 percent increase in sales.

As technology keeps advancing, creating newer and more sophisticated versions of older devices, consumers have been all too quick to discard the electronics they own now. That means the amount of e-waste that’s been tossed out and sent to landfills is skyrocketing.

the UN, environmental groups and governments around the world are working to promote the recycling of e-waste as the best solution.

Estimates are that the world produces up to 50 million tonnes of e-waste every year from consumers and businesses throwing out everything from smartphones to computers to household and office appliances, material believed to still be worth $62.5 billion. But only a small percentage of the e-waste — which contains valuable and reusable materials like metals and rare earth, never gets recycled.

Once a used electronic device is sent to an experienced recycling firm like Great Lakes Electronics Corporation, it keeps those devices out of landfills, and the parts with value can be used by manufacturers to create new products.

Recycling is a great way to make a long-term contribution to our environment, and recycling aging office equipment and electronics should be near the top of their list.

Electronic recycling is the specialty of Great Lakes Electronics Corporation, which has years of experience performing environmentally friendly recycling of electronic products. Great Lakes Electronics Corporation will disassemble these items into component parts, and the ones that still have value can be sold for reuse. Other parts are used for metals recovery, and everything is recycled.

NDC stands for the New Distribution Capability, which is essentially an XML standard created by the International Air Transportation Association (IATA) to allow airline service providers to deliver rich content and ancillaries to their customers.

Personalised shopping experience and access to customer information. Currently, most of the customer personal data remain in the hands of middlemen, OTAs and GDSs. This means that airlines get just basic information about their clients, which doesn’t allow for personalising the shopping experience, the thing that has become a standard in modern travel eCommerce.

Content and pricing autonomy.

Currently, most airlines publish their tariffs via ATPCO, the tech provider and main source of pricing data.

Rich content offers, ancillaries, and discounts. Distributing the flight data via GDS’s EDIFACT (Electronic Data Interchange for Administration, Commerce, and Transport), airlines are unable to include ancillaries in their offers.

Product differentiation. The traditional GDS model only permits airlines to display prices and schedules.

Reduced reliance on legacy systems. Most airlines use legacy passenger service systems (PSS) that contain reservation info, fares, and schedule.

As a result, NDC was supposed to break the oligopoly of GDSs that formed over time.

According to the latest IATA NDC program update, the list of certified deployments reached 65 carriers. The number seems to have grown significantly since 2017 when IATA reported only 50 airlines adopting NDC. But, compared to the overall number of airlines connected to the major three GDSs, which is over 400, NDC adopters seem to be a minority.

Lower operational costs

With cloud computing, you can truly work from anywhere – a capability the hospitality industry has historically struggled to embrace, often due to the limits of the technology in use.

Firstly, it must provide the best suite of management tools for all members of your hotel staff; and, secondly, it must help you provide the best guest experience possible. Another advantage of cloud computing is it enables your staff members to work more efficiently by freeing them from fixed terminals. Check-ins aren’t limited to the reception desk,

Improved guest experience thanks to mobility

Remote working

Depending on the system from which you’re moving, a complete import of your data might be possible, and the ease with which such systems can be learned means staff adoption is unlikely to cause any problems or service interruptions.

Aloft Hotels uses Botlr, a robot butler, to deliver items to guests around the clock.

Guests at New York’s Yotel can have their bags stored with Yobot, a robotic luggage concierge. Robots aren’t entirely replacing humans, however—a lesson learned by the Henn-na Hotel in Japan, which fired half of its all-robot staff to employ more humans.

More hotels are moving away from traditional room keys to leverage RFID technology through guest wristbands. The technology is popular at resorts like Disney World and Great Wolf Lodge.

The Cosmopolitan in Las Vegas has Rose, an AI concierge who can help guests book spa services and restaurants and offers insider information like secret menu items at the hotel bar. Four Seasons Hotels uses Four Seasons Chat for 24/7 chat service that is powered by humans, not AI, for a more personal touch and responds to messages in 90 seconds or less.

. Hilton Hotels has introduced mobile check in for rewards guests to seamlessly check in, choose their room and unlock the door through an app. 

ach room at the CitizenM Hotel in Amsterdam comes equipped with a MoodPad tablet, which allows guests to change the temperature, TV, window blinds, alarm and lighting in one place. Some Marriott hotels have smart shower doors where guests can jot down their ideas while in the shower and then email the image to themselves for future use. 

A number of hotels and resorts, including Radisson and Omni, offer the service and have seen improved customer satisfaction and online booking rates. 

Hilton uses location-based services at some of its resorts to alert guests to events and activities that might interest them based on where they are on the property.

The wall of each room at Hub by Premier Inn in the U.K. includes an AR map of the local area. When guests point a smartphone at the map, they can learn about local attractions and get recommendations for the best things to do and see.
