Hi y'all:
At Joslyn, we use VISTA for walk-in visitors and tour reservations. For
information concerning rentals (and events), our Events Coordinator and
Food Service Director (and Food Service Assistant) use Event Master.
I do not believe there is any one comprehensive software package that
can handle all functions - walk-ins/tours *and* rentals/events --
equally well.
If you have questions, please let me know.
Sincerely,
Jay Heuman
Visitor & Volunteer Services Coordinator
