Intelligent Collaboration Via GlobalMeet

GlobalMeet's smart collaboration enhancements will also help businesses to address the challenges faced by employees when attempting to orchestrate effective meetings. With artificial intelligence and data analytics, GlobalMeet can offer insights and recommendations that empower modern employees. For instance, features include:

  • GlobalMeet Widget: The widget addresses the multi-tasking issue during meetings and provides access to key functionality and features, even when the GlobalMeet screen is minimised. This means that team members can work while in a meeting
  • Live transcripts and summaries: Summaries and meeting transcripts allow viewers to quickly scan through a conference to find details they might have missed
  • Recording reminders: Reminders keep employees on track after a meeting by capturing useful information and following up on progress
  • Active directory integrations: integrations with Office 365 offer useful calendar awareness so hosts can stop wasting time by identifying who is available and who is in a meeting
