From planning to delivering, to managing, your formal and informal meetings...
Convene in Teams is the integrated, end-to-end Board Portal meeting solution with additional productivity and collaborative features to support your organisation to Plan, Meet and Do more efficiently.
Convene In Teams has been designed to allow directors and administrators to use Convene’s powerful end-to-end meeting features within MS Teams, eliminating the hassle of switching between applications and maintaining separate tools. Designed to further boost efficiency in meetings and collaboration, Convene in Teams empowers boards with the capabilities of Microsoft 365 and Convene in one integrated platform.
Admins schedule via Calendar, post agenda in Teams, upload files in SharePoint, and collaborate on Office 365 — to name a few steps in the workflow.
Relying on someone else’s screen during video conferencing hinders directors from working at their own pace and managing their own notes and action items.
Admins create meeting notes separately in OneNote, take down decision items, and manually follow up action items through Planner, To-Do, and Project.
Admins may need to use MS Teams or Outlook to ask for signatures and approval. Directors then individually review the documents on Office 365.
Directors and admins are burdened with learning how SharePoint and its permission system work, when they have other important things to do.
Sync your schedules through a two-way integration between Convene and Exchange Calendar. Utilise the RSVP functionality from either platform to confirm and update your attendance.
Drag and drop documents into the agenda, set restrictions on who can see what, and update board packs instantly.
Edit meeting files within Convene in Teams, effectively removing the hassle of re-uploading documents into the system. Integrated seamlessly with Office 365, Convene in Teams automatically updates the meeting files once edits are made.
