## What it is
Indico is a feature-rich, web-based event management system developed at CERN for organizing lectures, meetings, workshops, and conferences. It covers the full conference lifecycle including registration, abstract and paper reviewing, timetable management, badge printing, room booking, and archival of event materials.

## Use cases
- manage conference registrations and abstract submissions
- book meeting rooms across an organization
- archive presentation materials and event metadata
- organize workshops and seminars with timetables
- print participant badges and tickets
- integrate video conferencing into event pages
- self-host an event management platform for an institute

## When to choose
- you need a mature, self-hosted event management system for an institution
- you run conferences requiring registration, payments, and paper reviewing workflows
- you need hierarchical content organization with fine-grained access control
- you manage many rooms and need a booking system

## When to avoid
- you only need a simple single-event landing page
- you want a lightweight SaaS-style event tool without server administration
- your stack is not Python-based and you need deep customization
