Accommodate your one-time or short-term online event, conference, or communication needs
by licensing ParaChat Event. ParaChat Event is modeled for short-term, cost-effective
and easy access to a feature-rich ParaChat Server for online events of most any size.
There is no long-term commitment or set-up fee. Service is activated within 24 hours
upon receipt of a one-time license fee, and remains active for 21 days. Since ParaChat
Event is hosted by ParaChat, you incur no additional bandwidth expenses, nor strain on
your existing system.
Although ParaChat Event rooms are embedded into your own web site, they are served from
a ParaChat Server that is dedicated exclusively to your organization. The ParaChat
client (chat room) is fully customizable to the scheme of a web page for seamless
integration. A ParaChat Event chat server is hosted on a high-speed machine using ParaChat's
latest 100% Java chat technology. ParaChat Event permits the creation of an unlimited
number of chat rooms and admin users using web-based administration tools.
The ParaChat client does not require a user to download any additional software or
plug-ins, and is accessed using common Java-enabled web browsers. There are no signed
applets or security warnings to detract from the end-user experience. See our
Features page for
a complete list of features.
Your ParaChat Event Java chat server is accessed by the ParaChat client using a TCP/IP
connection by default. For firewall support, it is also configured to automatically
attempt a user connection utilizing HTTP protocol when TCP/IP protocol is unavailable.
ParaChat Event is administered using a web-based interface for chat room and admin user
creation, real-time usage reporting, chat room transcript retrieval, and branding and
banner image uploads.

Types of ParaChat Event Rooms
|
|
There are 3 modes into which a ParaChat Event room may be configured:
Open Chat.
This is the default mode where all users may submit chat text to the main
chat window at any time.
Moderated Chat.
When the moderated event mode is enabled, the main chat window becomes "read
only". User submissions are filtered to a designated moderator for review. The moderator may
reply to the question, or forward it to a designated speaker for reply. When the reply is
posted, the original question appears along with the moderator or speaker's reply in the main
chat window for all users to read.
Open Moderation.
This is a unique mode where the features of open chat are coupled with
the features of moderated chat. When invoked, the chat interface has 2 chat text input fields.
The top chat text input field is used for submissions to the main chat window. The bottom chat
text input field is used for submissions to a moderator. Open moderation allows users to chat
freely in the main chat room, as well as to submit questions to a moderator or speaker who, in
turn, submit an answer to the submitted questions. Questions and answers display together in
the main chat window as you find with moderated chat mode.

ParaChat Event User Counter
|
|
Drive traffic to your ParaChat Event rooms from throughout your web site! The ParaChat Event
User Counter is a Java-based counter that informs your
web site visitors of how many users are currently chatting there. Through the addition
of a few lines of HTML to web pages throughout your site, the number of users in your
ParaChat Event rooms are conveniently displayed on any web page.
