Frequently Asked Questions

What do I need to be able to run ResRunner?

ResRunner is an internet based software solution, so an internet connection is essential. While we recommend using the most recent version of Google Chrome, ResRunner has been proven to provide full functionality across all modern web browsers and major operating systems. Because of this, ResRunner can be accessed and utilized from any device able to access and browse the internet.

My registration process is unique, can ResRunner handle complex events?

We hear this a lot and understand the complexities surrounding every registration process. Whether it be date specific “early bird” rates, cancellation penalties by percentage or dollar amount, various registration paths determined by attendee type or responses to questions, pre-populated member database information…ResRunner can handle the extreme demands of any meeting planner, event or organization.

Can I have multiple hotels associated with one event?

Yes. ResRunner’s housing module offers you the flexibility to add an unlimited number of hotels to any event. We have clients who build events spanning multiple cities and multiple hotels, all of which can be arranged from one central portal.

Does ResRunner handle unlimited room block/sub-blocks?

Yes. ResRunner provides you with the ability to add unlimited blocks and sub-blocks for each property. Our system makes it easy to set up and manage even the most intricate room blocks.

Do I have to manage any API’s between the three systems?

No. Gone are the days where you have to send request to your IT department or various vendors to set up Application Program Interfaces (API’s) to numerous systems in order to manage a single event. The purpose of an API is to eliminate the re-keying of data by attendees from system to system and an attempt at consolidating reports for meeting planners. ResRunner achieves all of this without needing to involve any API’s.

*While ResRunner can incorporate all functions without AIP’s, we recognize some organizations are not in a position to switch housing and/or travel systems, so we do offer API’s from ResRunner to applications like Passkey, NuTravel and Salesforce. However we take pride in the fact that our registration, housing, and travel can be managed from one portal, eliminating the re-keying of data for attendees and allowing reports to be generated with ease. 

We leave travel up to our attendees, do we have to use the air booking engine?

No. ResRunner offers you the flexibility to turn on or off the housing and travel engines on a per event basis. Many clients choose to leave the air travel engine on, giving attendees the choice to book on their own or fulfill registration, housing, and travel in one simple transaction. 

Can we build custom reports in ResRunner?

Yes. ResRunner comes fully loaded with over 40 canned registration, housing and travel reports. Pre-filters can be used to tailor the results of these reports to return only the information you require. Additionally, event organizers have the ability to create fully customized reports using any fields, which can be saved and used in the future. All reports can be extracted in a .csv, .xls, or .html format. Our reporting engine is robust and easy to use, making it simple for you to create custom reports for unique and specific scenarios.
