Meeting Manager

Organize meeting info - calendar, agenda, attachments, action items. More than just a scheduler, with tight hooks into MS Outlook.

They offer free trial, 30 day money back, and apparently permanent list price reduction from $299 to $99. With a free trial and low price point, there needs to be a strong pull to get people to install and try - no sales/tech guy to help.


Getting started
MeetingSense installs in seconds without any system-wide touch points or IT impact. On first run, MeetingSense automatically pulls in your Microsoft Outlook meetings and begins working on its own.

Before a meeting
Leverage tight MeetingSense integration with Microsoft® Outlook® to drive best practices that translate into the most productive meetings possible.

During a meeting
MeetingSense allows users to easily capture all of the information shared in the meeting, including:

Participants
Agenda
Audio
Rich notes
Documents
Key points & decisions
Action items

Following a meeting
Customize and then instantly distribute all captured information via a comprehensive, organized email summary. This information is then archived in the dashboard for fast and easy retrieval at any time.
