“Sessionboard has been one of our most successful investments this year, making our team more efficient and allowing us to focus on the most critical components of our events.”
Mirasmart (mirasmart.com) and related EventClass/Planion patterns serve society abstract programs.
Mirasmart — their scope
Program, CRM & marketing
Sessionboard is program-native abstract and speaker software for medical and scientific societies — multi-round review, speaker portal, live transcription, Attendee Hub, and Advocacy on the session record. Mirasmart fits when the buy stops at forms and review without post-acceptance speaker ops or content capture.
Match your role to the job Sessionboard solves — program, content, or marketing attribution.
Mirasmart-family workflows stop at acceptance — speakers still coordinated in email and shared drives.
500+ abstracts with COI rules — you need chair self-service, not export-and-patch review.
Faculty record resets each submission cycle — you need portal, bio, and materials on one graph.
No Advocacy attribution from program events — peer shares should tie to registration when sessions are accepted.

“Sessionboard saves significant planning time and makes it easier than ever for speakers and sponsors to participate in our clients' events.”
“We used Sessionboard daily. It served as our source of truth for tracking speakers, sending emails, and accessing reports. The ability to set a weekly digest email was a huge time saver.”
“Honestly, I loved it! Getting everything out of the spreadsheet. It collects all the information and gives you a visual of who you might want to invite.”

Call for papers (CFP), multi-round review, chair workflows, conflict of interest (COI) tracking, and published agenda — work competitors leave in spreadsheets.
