Abstract Submission Software for Conferences - Why We are Different

Abstract Submission Software for Conferences

Collect, organize, and manage conference abstracts online with configurable submission forms, author information, deadlines, payments, and reporting tools.

MeetingBloom helps conference organizers replace disconnected forms with a structured online submission process. Administrators can view submitted, incomplete, paid, assigned, reviewed, and accepted records from one system instead of rebuilding the same information across multiple tools. Every system works together.

A Structured Process for Abstract Collection

Abstract submission software should make the process clear for authors and manageable for administrators. MeetingBloom supports custom questions, author and affiliation details, submission categories, deadlines, and administrative review needs.

The system is designed to keep abstract data organized from submission through review, decision notices, conference programming, poster list building, registration, and reporting when those workflows are used together, and no complex steps to set this up.

Common Uses

  • Annual meetings and scientific conferences
  • Research symposia and poster sessions
  • Membership association abstract calls
  • Multi-track academic or professional events
  • Conferences requiring review, acceptance, and presenter tracking

Core Abstract Submission Features

Configurable Submission Forms

Create abstract submission forms with the questions and fields needed for your conference, including title, topic, presentation type, author details, affiliations, and custom information.

Author and Affiliation Management

Collect structured author information, co-author details, institutional affiliations, and presenter information so records remain consistent for review and program planning.

Deadline and Status Tracking

Manage submission deadlines and monitor records by status, including incomplete, submitted, updated, paid, assigned, reviewed, accepted, or declined.

Special Character Support

Allow authors to submit abstracts that include scientific notation, symbols, formulas, and special characters when required by the subject matter without worrying about lost characters.

Administrative Reporting

Use structured abstract data for lists, exports, review assignments, program preparation, presenter tracking, and internal conference reporting.

Optional Payment Collection

When submission fees are required, payment information can be connected to the abstract workflow so administrators can see which submissions are paid or pending.

Designed for Conference Administrators

Manual abstract collection often creates extra work: email attachments must be renamed, author details are inconsistent, deadlines are hard to enforce, and reporting requires spreadsheet cleanup. A structured submission system reduces those repeated administrative tasks by keeping related data in one place.

1. Build the Form

Define the questions, required fields, submission types, topic areas, and author information needed for the call for abstracts.

2. Open Submissions

Authors complete their abstracts online and provide the required presenter, co-author, affiliation, and category information.

3. Monitor Progress

Administrators can track completed, incomplete, paid, changed, or assigned submissions throughout the process.

4. Use the Data

Submitted information can support review, decisions, presenter communications, program planning, and reporting.

Part of the Larger Meeting Workflow

Abstract submission is often only one part of the conference process. MeetingBloom can work alongside peer review, acceptance decisions, presenter notifications, agenda building, registration, and reporting.

Using shared data across these areas can reduce duplicate entry and help organizers maintain a clearer record from the original submission through the final conference program.
