24 eScribe Software Testimonials

“Meeting minutes and agenda preparation now take minutes instead of hours."

"The eScribe team was amazing, they were very supportive. They walked us through every step making sure that they were there to support us. Using eScribe has saved us so much time on our agenda prep. It used to take us almost two days to do a full agenda now we’re down to approximately an hour."

“I can’t see anyone ever wanting to go back to physical meeting management.”

“eSCRIBE strives to make their product even better. We want to be able to use the system for a long time. Seeing eSCRIBE growing with us and looking at new ways to improve is phenomenal. The software delivers on its promises, and it’s clear that eSCRIBE values us as a customer."

"You don’t have to reinvent the wheel. If I type a motion into the agenda, it automatically populates the minutes. That was huge to me: risk of error is significantly reduced."

"Contributing to HCDSB’s success in these goals fits in with our core values as well. As an Executive Assistant, eSCRIBE has drastically reduced my workload—from reports to taking minutes and assigning tasks, the whole process has become more cost-effective and time-efficient."

"Before eSCRIBE, everything was done manually. It is almost impossible to try and quantify the hours we spent preparing. Compiling reports took months, and building a meeting agenda was a two-day process for each committee. Now everything we need is up-to-date and securely available on any device, anywhere."

“eSCRIBE has enhanced the Clerk Department’s customer service to our municipality and improved our communications across the corporation.”

“But I know there are still many aspects and features of eSCRIBE that I do not use yet, and I am looking forward to learning more about them as my time permits.”

“We discovered that endless conversation about change was a barrier. Actually committing to doing something and then acting is what was required. Once we embraced the solution, the problem disappeared.”

“To my surprise, it was unanimous. Not all board members had used an iPad before, so there was a huge learning curve. But they were excited that we were going this way, and I heard comments like ‘we’re so glad we did this.”

“eSCRIBE has certainly streamlined our agenda and report preparation, all while staying true to the successful processes we wanted to retain for collaboration and workflow. Our agenda creation time has been reduced by 1/3, while our post-meeting time preparing minutes and publishing to our website has decreased by 50%.”

“My assistant, who creates the agenda, is in love with the system. She just LOVES it. It used to be very difficult to accommodate changes; now it takes two seconds to make the change.”

“eScribe lowers our stress and frees up our time to do other things we need to do. It has been a breath of fresh air.”

“It’s always good to stay on top of the latest technology. I believe a city and its staff should be open to learning new technology and ways to streamline what they are doing in their respective governmental entities. The eSCRIBE platform is easy to use and helps simplify managing our council meetings and work sessions, while improving our meeting processes by presenting information in a much more reader-friendly way.”
