I also like that I can set up many meetings at once. > > **Cons**: I find it not very user friendly, I do a lot of searching at times before I am able to find what I am looking for. Although, we are going to have a training session in the new year, this may help. > > I find escribe to be a software that answers all needs when it comes to municipal meetings. I would recommend it to with much confidence. ----- ### "Escribe is great value for the price" — 5.0/5 > **TERI** | *12 October 2024* | Government Administration | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Easy minutes, bulk scheduling meetings and roll call. > > **Cons**: It takes a bit to set up and the back end has a little learning curve. Once you learn it it's great. ----- ### "eScribe review" — 3.0/5 > **Angela** | *27 September 2018* | Government Administration | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: There are many functions for minute taking. We are hoping to utilize the functions more than we have in the past. > > **Cons**: I do not have issues with the interface but some of my co-workers are afraid to use it. The interface could be more user friendly. I find it difficult to create new templates and they all appear different even though the settings were the same as another template. Preview button is painful to use. > > Reduction in paper is great\!\! I look forward to using eScribe for report management. ----- ### "Effective Board Management" — 4.0/5 > **Manpreet** | *21 August 2025* | Government Administration | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: It has a lot of functions that help with governance in an organization, i.e. minutes template, embedding videos, etc. This was my first time using a board management software so it taught me quite a bit about governance documentation. > > **Cons**: There were some "kinks" with some of the processes. I had to call customer support to get small things resolved or manually done from their side. > > Now that I have used a few other board management softwares, eScribe wouldn't necessarily be my first choice as I have found the others to be more user-friendly. I will say however, that eScribe offers a variety of functions that are not available or cost extra with other software programs. ----- ### "eScribe - the Only Meeting Software you Need\!" — 4.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *11 January 2025* | Architecture & Planning | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: Curating details, writing notes, and making agendas for meetings used to take a while, but with this software it made the process much faster and easier. I also found that they have more functions than other softwares. > > **Cons**: It is not the most user-friendly for a new user, it is a bit difficult to search / find some functions you want. > > While it does improve meeting efficiency and engagement, the learning curve is a bit steep at first. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/352036/escribe?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/352036/escribe) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
