Senior Principal Research Engineer Research ### "Basic Functions for Managing Conference Paper Review Process - More Functions Desired" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 2.0 2.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 6/10 December 4, 2019 Pros The customer support was very good, with a project manager from Omnipress assigned to us who was very responsive. The submission process was also relatively easy for paper authors and paper reviewers. Cons I have used other conference paper submission and review software tools and found them to be much easier to use - from an administrative side. For example, the process of adding reviewers to the system, assigning reviews, and viewing results is a very manual process. Significant automation of these tasks is needed, along with improved visualization of the reviewer scores for each paper. I provided Omnipress with a long list of recommended improvements many of which I believe they are working on. Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort. All incentivized reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication. Response from Vendor December 6, 2019 Hello Phillip! Thank you for writing this review- we appreciate you finding the time in your day to give us your feedback!

There's a lot to learn but it's so simple and user friendly, it's quick. Pros \-Usability including training for evaluation and application function especially with the ongoing changes of volunteers who evaluate programs Cons Pulling reports! I wish there was a clearer way to do this as it doesn't seem as simplistic as it could be. Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort. All incentivized reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication. Response from Vendor October 17, 2019 Hello Vanessa!

Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort. All incentivized reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication. Response from Vendor October 14, 2019 Hello Jill!

They will assist you in retrieving the information you require at any point during the collection process. Thank you again for the review! DD Devin D. Meeting Planner Non-Profit Organization Management ### "Catalyst review" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 October 11, 2019 Less labor Great support Quick turnarounds Mass emails This software has made the whole collection of abstracts a lot easier for our group. I can't even imagine going back to the way we used to do it. Pros We lost an employee due to retirement and then picked up this software, which made it easy to transition from our old manual process to a new, online process - with less labor. Cons The fact that you can't have several collections running at the same time. They are all lumped into one collection, even though we are collecting several different types of abstracts at different times. Reasons for choosing CATALYST Abstract Management We choose Catalyst, because we work with Omnipress on other things. Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort. All incentivized reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication. Response from Vendor October 14, 2019 Hello Devin! Thank you so much for taking the time to write this review- I'm glad to hear the move to CATALYST from your old manual process has made your collection process easier! In addition to your note about running several collections at the same time- CATALYST does allow for several collections to be running concurrently. Your dedicated Project Manager is happy to discuss the pros and cons with you regarding multiple concurrent collections when planning for your future events. Thank you again for the review! GT Gayla T. Deputy Executive Director Non-Profit Organization Management ### "Great product!" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 October 7, 2019 My overall experience over the past 4 years has been great! The software accomplishes what we need it to, it allowed the full process to be in one place, and the customer support and timeliness of requests is the best I've experienced from any vendor I've ever worked with. I would highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for an abstract management system. Pros For us, the main benefit was how much it cut down on staff time to manually create custom webpages of our own with the necessary information, first for the actual Call for Papers and then separately for the Reviewers. All the way from the Call for Papers to the review process was tedious and took many hours between 2 staff members. This product put everything in one place and offered easy completion for the applicant and easy access for the reviewers and cut staff time to very little. Cons There are places where it's not obvious how to get from one place to another. So for a beginning user, it could be a little frustrating. But once you're oriented, it's very easy. Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort. All incentivized reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication. Response from Vendor October 9, 2019 Hello Gayla! Thank you for taking the time to write this review- it's great to hear CATALYST has been a time saving solution for you and your staff as well as making the submission process easier for your applicants and reviewers! Additionally, I'm delighted to hear about the great experience you had interacting with our customer support team! As far as the frustration for beginner users and navigation of the site- we'll be releasing a new landing page for applicants (submitters) and a redesign of the dashboard in Q4 2019. This should eliminate any frustrations of new users. Thank you again for the review Gayla! FP Filomena P. Director of Operations Non-Profit Organization Management ### "Catalyst - Great Abstract System" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 9/10 October 3, 2019 Pros Very user friendly.

Great company. Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort. All incentivized reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication. Response from Vendor October 7, 2019 Hello Filomena!

Thank you again for the review! DL Diane L. Vice President / COO Mental Health Care ### "Good but confusing to users " 3.0 Overall Rating 3.0 3.0 Ease of Use 3.0 3.0 Features 3.0 3.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 3/10 October 3, 2019 Pros Overall it is wonderful how some items be customized. Cons The way additional speakers are added is very confusing. Users had a hard time adding co-presenters. Also, the way the information exports it isn’t easy to track the presenter’s company name, address etc. Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort. All incentivized reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication. Response from Vendor October 7, 2019 Hello Diane!

Publications Coordinator Automotive ### "New to the World of Abstract Management" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 3.0 3.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 8/10 October 1, 2019 I am new to the world of conferencing and events, so the system of managing abstracts was foreign to me. CATALYST and Representative has been a tremendous help in learning the system. When I tell you I was new, my entire concept of what I was using the tool for was off. Now, I feel confident and I am looking forward to actually putting our conferencing events and using CATALYST next year, we are even looking into the app designed for interfacing with our event for next year. This will assist us in streamlining that portion of our process and also saving us time in the long run. I really have nothing else to compare CATALYST to as I am completely new to the industry, but I will say, that it’s a great system to have to compare in the future. Pros I like the ease of use. It is very intuitive and I am curious to work with the new app. Cons Some features that I would like to have were not available. This could be due to the lack of understanding by the person working to create the functionality required for our needs.

All incentivized reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication. Response from Vendor October 7, 2019 Hello Teshia!

The staff is knowledgeable and always very helpful - great customer service. Pros It is adjustable for each of our clients needs and requirements - and they are varied. The information we collect can be put into journal ready documents that look great. Cons The fact that you can't print out just the abstract contents on a page (for reviewers and submitters). The affiliations section isn't very intuitive. Reasons for choosing CATALYST Abstract Management In addition to the product, the staff is great. It is nice to have a project manager assigned to you who you can actually talk to when you need to and not always get a voicemail. Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort. All incentivized reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication. Response from Vendor October 1, 2019 Hi Debbie!

It is nice to have support when needed. The hands on/hands off approach with our contact at Omnipress works well. Pros What I like most about this software is that is its ease of use, appearance, and can be customized to fit my organization's needs. I like that its reports and schedule feature. Cons TBD as I have yet to really experience the software as an user. As software administrator, the thing I like least about the software is that we are unable to customize the letter templates more (i.e. include images like our logo). Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort. All incentivized reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication. Response from Vendor September 30, 2019 Hello Sara!

Cons There are always reporting functionalities that would make things easier! We make it work (and our Omnipress contacts help quite a bit) but if it were possible to merge reviews in with each proposal in a report, it'd be great.

Our poster presenters and session chairs love it. The customer support we receive from OmniPress is also wonderful. Pros I like the ease of use. I use it but so do the Chairs of my sessions. Once we started using Catalyst, we no longer received calls/emails from users needing help. Cons At times, the system is slow w/saving info and/or updating info. We've been told that is due to the number of companies that we have in the "Institution" pull-down screen.

Cons Abstract reviewers could not print their assigned abstracts with corresponding graphics in line with the text.
