We introduced Convene initially to improve the efficiency of non-executive Board \& Committee meetings. Very soon after implementation the Governance team identified more areas for using the software and it is now used for multiple internal management \& working group meetings / information sharing. > > **Cons**: Nothing really. If we have had any problems, the service team have been very helpful. > > We introduced Convene in June 2019. Users quickly became familiar with the software. The value of this investment really showed when we were forced into office closures with the onset of the Covid Pandemic in March 2020. Our business decision making was able to continue and function effectively due to the flexibility available through use of Convene. The biggest benefits are: savings in paper and print costs, saving in time spent producing and circulating meeting packs, ease of access to document library and previous meeting packs. ----- ### "Convene review" — 4.0/5 > **Shedrack** | *12 April 2024* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: I loved using Convene\! One of the best things about it was its ease of use. I was able to quickly and easily plan and manage meetings and events, which saved me so much time and hassle. The platform was user-friendly and intuitive, which was a major plus. > > **Cons**: One of the things I liked least was the limited customization options. While there were some customization options available, I would have liked more control over the look and feel of the platform. > > Another thing that I loved was the ability to collaborate with others. Convene made it easy to share information, documents, and schedules with my colleagues, which made planning and managing events much smoother. Overall, I was extremely impressed with the convenience, efficiency, and functionality of Convene. ----- ### "Convene - Easy to use and good value" — 4.0/5 > **Andrew** | *05 May 2022* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: There are some really good features such as review room which we now use instead of Sharepoint which was more difficult to use. Convene is intuitive and meeting packs can be created quickly without having to convert papers to pdfs as the system does it easily. We also have single sign-on so its easy to access. > > **Cons**: The only downside is it probably dosen't look as polished as some of the more expensive competition but it does the job and is much easier to use than some of the better known competition and there ares ome really good features and tools included > > Convene saves having to make up paper board packs and is easier to distribute the papers with the click of a button and most importantly securely. I can also see who has downloaded their papers. ----- ### "Easy to understand and use" — 5.0/5 > **JAMES** | *04 December 2020* | Government Administration | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: The software is easy to use, secure and not as pricey as its competitors. The reduced time to prepare and send out folios to the intended recipients were major factors in deciding to use this software. We are also excited about the new features being introduced to improve the software. Price > > **Cons**: I would like the software to have OCR capabilities so that documents scanned and uploaded can be annotated. > > I very much appreciate how Azeus Convene went out of its way to help us in procuring their product. Government requirements are very tedious for a foreign company joining our bidding but they complied. Their support was also very helpful by providing training and presentations during the product evaluation. ----- Page: 1 / 7\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.za.com/software/102693/convene?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.za.com/software/102693/convene) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
