There are dozens of web services and special tools designed to help you make the most of the meetings you have to attend or organize, whether it's at work, a community group, or for a volunteer function. Some of them are free, others are web-based, but at the end of the day, the best one is the one that helps you and everyone else stay on the same page and get more done. Earlier in the week we asked you which services you used to manage your meeting minutes and agendas, and then we took a look at the top five. Now we've back to highlight the winner.
Even though it's not strictly designed for meeting minutes, Microsoft OneNote took the top spot with 45% of the overall vote. It's Windows only The desktop version is Windows only (compared to all of the other services, which are all webapps) and the most expensive of the bunch when purchased with Office, but the fact that it comes with Microsoft Office and so many of you are already familiar with it helped lead it to victory. Minutes.io, a great free webapp for managing your meeting minutes and sending out notes after the meeting, took second place with 26% of the overall vote. In third was LessMeeting with just over 12% of the vote, and in fourth place was the freemium service After the Meeting, with just under 10% of the overall vote. Free service Meetin.gs brought up the rear with just under 6%.
