Once you learn it it's great. ----- ### "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. ----- ### "Escribe is not user friendly, but when I have a question I'm able to get my answers quick" — 4.0/5 > **Wanda** | *31 October 2017* | Government Administration | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like that it is converted to Words and that I can make changes in that manner. 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 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. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.nz/software/140216/escribe?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.nz/software/140216/escribe) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
