Event management solutions leader b-there
b-there has selected to deploy Infotreiver  on its Web-based services. b-there, the leader in online event management solutions for the meeting, tradeshow and convention industry, implemented Infotriever to further personalize customer communications and extend its competitive edge.
b-there develops a powerful integrated online solution for event registration, housing, travel and attendee relationship management. b-there offers this solution to event planners, who in turn offer meeting attendees a custom branded online portal for complete event registration, real-time tracking and proactive schedule management. Infotriever streamlines the meeting notification process by enabling attendees to easily add and receive updates on all event-related information, using their preferred desktop or handheld calendar. For the first time, b-there makes the attendee`s personal calendar a dynamic extension of their meeting agenda, arming them with the information they need to stay organized and productive at hectic meetings, while minimizing basic event-related inquiries to the event planner`s call center.

b-there`s personal service and technological innovation has propelled the company to the forefront of the burgeoning meeting technology industry. Adding the Infotriever offering to its range of event management solutions bolsters b-there`s leadership position in the industry: “After evaluating other calendaring options, we selected Infotriever because it is the only enterprise-grade calendar automation solution to further enhance the high level of service that our corporate clients have come to expect,” said Christine Berthet, CEO of b-there. “Corporations that depend on the b-there solution also rely heavily on enterprise calendar applications such as Microsoft Outlook® and Lotus Notes® - integrating seamlessly b-there service with ubiquitous calendar applications using Infotriever gives our customers further cost and convenience advantage.”

Infotriever circumvents the inbox, enabling companies to communicate directly with users via their personal organizers. In empowering corporations to precisely target their communications, the Infotriever solution ensures that time-sensitive and critical contact information relevant to users reaches its target effortlessly and directly. This information is delivered where it matters most—into users` electronic calendars and address books.

“The combined b-there - Infotriever offering demonstrates the power in uniting superior customer service with cutting-edge technology,” said Alexander Rink, Infotriever President. “Infotriever addresses b-there`s unique needs while simultaneously enabling its corporate clients to drive revenue through better end-user service and higher online adoption rates.
