X-CD vs. Purplepass

Most academic research and medical societies are running their operations on five different tools — a membership database, a separate abstract submission system, a conference registration platform, a peer review tool, and a proceedings publisher. Each was signed at a different time, with a different vendor, and the data moves between them through CSV exports and a staff member who knows where the bodies are buried. X-CD replaces all of it.
