Rendezvous Cloud (Software as a Service) has become the preferred software suite for events, meetings and conference venues wishing to streamline the entire process, from bookings to catering and billing, allowing event organizers and venues to simply get on with the business of planning events, immaterial of size.
The NFS Technology Group (NFS) recently announced the expansion of its software solutions set and support as well as training services in South Africa. The solution set now includes Rendezvous Cloud. This is deployed by NFS as a fully managed on demand hosted solution, which is also known as cloud computing.
“Rendezvous Cloud has proved its worth with big and small events and conference facilities internationally. As South Africa is fast becoming a major conference destination, Rendezvous Cloud is now available to meeting venues in the region. Rendezvous Cloud is deployed over the internet as a service on demand and all you require to run it is a PC with broadband access as no software is installed on site,” says Jeana Turner, NFS national sales manager in South Africa.
Rendezvous Cloud is a well proven international solution, the benefits being cost and speed of deployment. The experience of International clients using the Rendezvous Cloud solution suggests many benefits.
“We chose Rendezvous because of its flexibility, simplicity and its friendly interface. The solution provides a transparent diary system so all users have access to the latest availability. The Events Team at The Siemens Crystal now have more time to focus on customer service as some of the internal users can book their own meetings and equipment.
“Producing weekly reports for internal departments, as well as generating invoices after an event have now also become tasks that take a fraction of the time that they used to before we installed Rendezvous,” added major new London venue, The Siemens Crystal.
