Open Source Conference Management Systems

We were required to setup a website for our conference in October 2009. Therefore, we decided to make a feasibility study for various Open Source Conference Management Systems.

I found 3 Open Source Conference Management Systems which seem to be OK. I give the links related to those softwares below. We would be more than happy if anyone comments on these or other alternative softwares for managing the conference.

The following Conference Management Systems are open source and free to use for noncommercial purposes. They work on LAMP (Linux, MySQL and PHP) also with Windows hosting.

  2. Public Knowledge Project (Developed by Stanford University) (download here)
  3. Web Submission and Review Software (download here)

    Thank you very much! But OpenConf is not Open Source, the “community edition” is very simple comparing to “professional edition”.
