planmyevent.eu: Technical Report

Currently in Ireland there is no online service for booking venues. Planmyevent.eu is a web service that provides this feature. It allows venue owners to register for an account and from here they can add, modify and delete their own venues details meaning they have total control and management of the online presence of their business on third party service. Once venues are added to the service it allows customers to search for a venue based on their chosen criteria. The customers can specify what type of event they’re having, how many people and which location and the search results will return a list of venues that match their preferences. From here the customer can view extra details about the venue and then select one of their choice add a date and time and book it. Once the venue is booked the booking will appear in a calendar of bookings for the venue owners to view. They can see the date and time of the booking and the customer’s details should they need to contact them. As the bookings increase the venue owners will also be able to utilise a business intelligence dashboard that shows them the number of bookings per month. This will allow them to analyse the most popular times for bookings and make smart business decisions. The venue owners will also be able to see a calendar of bookings and add employee accounts. It will also include a section that will provide advertising space for companies who provide products and services related to events such as balloons, entertainers and flowers. With this functionality planmyevent.eu provides a unique web service for booking and managing venues in Ireland
