Azeus Convene vs. Wolters Kluwer ActiveMeetings

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.

ActiveMeetings works well when you want to conduct pre-scheduled meets with a clear agenda and want to get inputs from stakeholders to close things quickly. It's not really so useful for general chit-chat or catchups with teammates as the extra features aren't useful in the scenario. It also has some friction when doing cross-org collaboration.

• 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.

• The UI interface could be much cleaner
• The cost of the software is high considering the value many free softwares provide
• Not everyone has ActiveMeetings so cross-organization collaboration has some friction

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

ActiveMeetings offers much more power in terms of setting the course for the meeting, getting real-time inputs from stakeholders, and closing things on the go compared to Zoom or Google Meet. However the interface of ActiveMeetings isn't as clean as intuitive as it is with Zoom, and especially with Google Meet.

• Meetings have become much more meeting with ActiveMeetings prompting for an agenda every time you set a meet
• You can club all relevant documents for the meet in one single doc which is really useful to avoid clutter and confusion
• This is still a hindrance when collaborating with people from a different organisation
