A system that solved a huge administration problem for us as busy managing directors

PROS

With Magic Minutes we can pull together all advance information for meetings in one place - with just a request email to each individual person supplying the necessary information. It stops dozens of emails being sent - and lost - and records the essential information all in one place. The system allows for a meeting to be fully recorded as it happens and actions can be created not only for people within the meetings but for others in the company - and these are then emailed automatically as soon as the meeting is closed. We can then chase these actions and ensure they are acted upon with reminder emails from within the Magic Minutes system. The time the system saves us is more than we could ever have envisaged, and it ensures that our staff are on top of everything we ask them to do. It also means that minutes are automatically recorded, meaning we do not have to transcribe minutes and never miss anything that has been said or discussed.

CONS

We would like to be able to incorporate the software into our other systems so that our information was automatically stored in existing files.

Vendor Response

Rhea - great that you are getting so much benefit from it. The good news is that we have an API in the development pipeline, so the idea of linking to other systems is on the way!

Making meetings accountable

Magic Minutes has dramitcally changed the way I run meetings and has made immense improvement to the output from meetings. Meetings are easy to structure, run and get genuine results.

PROS

I like the most the ease with which actionable and accountable minutes from meetings are produced and then can be picked up again in a follow on meeting.

CONS

The dashboard isnt that intuitive however a recent refresh has greatly improved this and I no longer have this issue.

Vendor Response

Thanks Brian - great to hear it has made such an impact on your meetings. I hope your colleagues see the benefits and start using it for their meetings too!

It is a huge time saver if it works lekker

PROS

The fact that it allows auto integration

CONS

That it does not allow you easily to edit and adapt the minutes. The wizard flow does not make taking the minutes easy.

Vendor Response

Marlene, thanks for trying it out. Sorry you didn¿t find the workflow clearer when you tried Magic Minutes. I note that you last logged in 6 months ago and there have been significant changes to the user interface since then, based on feedback from our users. I would encourage you to have another look and see how things have improved. I¿d be keen to hear your views on how we can improve it further. I¿m sure as a Business Analyst you will have some very good ideas. I¿ll contact you directly by email to get more detail.

Magic Minutes has streamlined our meetings, its fast accurate and easy to use.

PROS

Magic Minutes has revolutionized the way we meet. We used it for all meetings from long Board of Directors meetings right down to short service meetings. As we are based in two countries it is not always possible to physically get together but with magic minutes we can take part from where ever we are using the share meeting feature. Within the Magic Minutes environment we are able to to assign tasks to each attendee during the meeting and these tasks are carried over to the next meeting. It is simple to apply and action and comments to the tasks ready for the next meeting. The minutes of the meeting are done "live" as the meeting progresses and once the meeting is over the minutes are in every bodies in box with just a few clicks of the mouse.

CONS

If you are not used to taking accurate or detailed minutes of your meetings then you may find Magic Minutes a bit tough to get used to, after all the content is down to you.

Vendor Response

Cheers Bob - Thanks for the great review. It goes to show the wide range of meeting types that Magic Minutes can be useful for. Just need to get everyone in to the mindset to take meeting notes more often!

This software makes our meetings more focussed and productive. Admin is reduced and effectiveness i

Easy to use. Intuitive and quick.

PROS

The automatic distribution of actions to the participants and the way the sofware helps these actions to be chased up.

CONS

There is a fair amount of admin in getting meeting participants onto the system, however, many regular meetings do, by their nature, involve largely the same group of people so this amount of work is an initial burden, not a long term liability.

Vendor Response

Thanks Clive, and glad you're liking the features. Sign ups for individuals is straight forward, but there is an extra step when users join a company account so that we can give central control on who joins and leaves the group. We will look at streamlining the process further though to make it easier. Good feedback. Thanks,
