There is no software to load or programming to do. EventSource hosts and maintains the website. Companies only need Internet access and a standard web browser. Installation is free until January 1, 2001. Our core product offers clients the ability to save up to 30 percent on the cost of their business meetings, by offering free, unbiased information to users, said Ed Sarraille, President and CEO of EventSource.
Compass takes that process a step further.
It is designed for companies that plan a large number of meetings and corporate events each year. It allows clients to track how they re spending their corporate meeting dollars, and allows them to use that information productively to obtain additional savings.

In May, Sabre Holdings Corporation became the exclusive computer reservations system for EventSource, as well as an equity investor in the company.
