    Azeus Convene's security and collaboration features can create a great business case to introduce technology to the executive management team for board-related matters, especially if they are currently using a 'pen and paper' system. Would recommend for larger companies / large executive teams with busy schedules that find it difficult to collaborate.

    Cons
    Azeus Convene
    • Limited individual training sessions - The only clear and concrete advantage that Diligent has over Convene is that they have unlimited individual user training. But Convene is so intuitive and easy-to-use that you don't usually need to go beyond their free first 4 user/administrator training sessions.

    • Voting -- there should be a mechanism for board members to vote through the system
    • Minutes -- meeting minutes should automatically be generated based on attendance and online voting
    • Public Facing Page -- we need to publish our agendas and minutes on our website. I would like it if there was a way we can put links on our website to BoardBookit.

    Other than initial setup, we haven't really needed support. I do wish that they would roll out more features.

    Alternatives Considered
    Azeus Convene
    As our Board only had confidence in pen-and-paper prior to this implementation, the benefits are obvious (higher security, better collaboration, remote enablement)
