Venue and event management in the cloud
Sales Manager at Vodafone Events Centre, Karyn Spencer commented, “Due to our planned expansion and the fact that our existing venue management software was coming to end of life, we decided to explore how new technology could help to better support our event business for the future. With the new Conference Centre and the exciting new Wero world-class tourist destination, we will be able to host a greater volume and complexity of events, so we needed a solution that could support this.
We reviewed the market but found that Priava was the best match for all our requirements. In particular, with our old system it was easy to get information in, but more difficult to create meaningful data for the sales team. With Priava, we have built-in CRM capabilities, so it is easier to use and we can create key information that supports client communication. In turn by building enhanced relationships with customers we expect to increase the number of bookings as well as have the tools to deliver the best possible service during the event itself.
The fact that it was cloud-based was also appealing as we can reduce the costs of internal IT support and any updates are automatically applied without any downtime or disruption. The fact that Priava has a dedicated team in New Zealand that completely understood our needs and could provide a smooth transition from the old system gave us complete peace of mind.”
