Review Summary
Generated using AI from real user reviews
Azeus Convene earns strong user satisfaction, with the vast majority of reviewers praising its ease of use and practical value for board and meeting management.
Users consistently highlight the software's intuitive interface, noting that even those with limited IT knowledge can navigate it quickly with minimal training. Document handling is a particular strength—users appreciate the ability to drag-and-drop papers, collate multiple documents into single packs, and share board materials digitally rather than printing. The annotation and note-taking features, combined with the ability to mark comments as private or public, help participants engage with materials before and during meetings. Security gets repeated praise for its granular permission controls and the peace of mind of managing sensitive information without relying on email distribution.
Support and cost-effectiveness also emerge as consistent themes. Multiple reviewers commend the responsive customer service and note that Convene compares favourably on price to larger competitors like Diligent and BoardVantage while offering comparable features. The software works reliably across devices and platforms, including low-bandwidth environments, and integrates quickly with existing processes.
A handful of minor complaints surface: one user noted the sign-out button could be clearer in the mobile app, and another mentioned occasional login difficulties after offline access. One review flagged the lack of integration with other apps. These issues appear isolated and do not significantly detract from the overall positive sentiment.

It was quick and easy to implement. The software itself is intuitive to use and even the least tech savvy Board Members have found it straightforward and easy to use. We haven't used all the functionality (Board Members are yet to use the 'presenting' function) but the meeting, document library and resolution functions adequately meet our needs. The pulling together of the Board papers is a quicker and less stressful experience than it was previously and with improved security as we're not emailing round pdfs to various email addresses.

“Being President at SELC Pro LLC, as part of my…”
Being President at SELC Pro LLC, as part of my consulting, I was sometimes asked to give recommendations to nonprofits and medium-level companies on what board portal provider would be the best for their internal and strategic operations. I had tried many paperless meeting software providers, from the market leaders like Diligent and BoardVantage MeetX, the small players like BoardPaq, and to the midlevel players like BoardPad, BoardEffect, and Azeus Convene... Don't go for BoardPaq and BoardPad! They have lousy features and lousier support. BoardEffect is so-so. Diligent and BoardVantage is good, as long as you have money to burn. Convene is a hidden gem. It has as rich features, aesthetics, and intuitive interface as BoardVantage and Diligent, while costing at least 40% less. It's a clear winner for those who are practical. You have no idea how much it means for nonprofits, charities, and value-conscious companies and organizations to have a solution as good, yet as reachable, as Convene.

“Easy to use and powrful functions. The "Back Office" interface…”
Easy to use and powrful functions. The "Back Office" interface is very flexible and make putting a meeting "Pack" together really quick and straightforward. Convene works across a number of platforms making it ideal for BYOD. We have found customer service to have been very responsive and helpful in adapting the software in response to our feedback. Users need little training as it is very intuitative. Only niggles are that the sign out "button" isn't obvious in the App and that if you don't sign out after downloading the "Pack" before going offline, or if you lose connection, then you have difficulties logging in again. Fix this and it it would be five star.
