Sherpany vs. WorkPatterns

Sherpany helps us to retrieve information from previous meetings quickly. Participants for conferences can be contacted and their records can be viewed every time, wherever, and whether they are provided by the data they collect.

WordPatterns is very easy to use and keeps a direct line of communication with updates for your team and Manager(s). This tool takes collaboration way past the likes of Microsoft Teams. With everyone having an idea of your activities, information can easily be shared with useful and effective suggestions being provided by one and all. Timelines are easier to address and the level of precedence given to tasks can increase as well as decrease. It is easier to set achievable goals and the rest of the team can be involved in this process, to help reduce the time taken and to complete projects in time and on schedule. In terms of having direct communication with Management, it is invaluable as information can be sent there and then or later on. There is less of the cumbersome messaging involved in other Apps. It's also great for Appraisal/Performance reviews etc.

• Changes with new versions should be well communicated in advance and consider in more detail the impact on existing boardrooms
• Too expensive
• Generally, more possibilities for customizing e.g. it should be possible to define security levels for access individually (why do I have to retype my email every time I synchronize?) or it should be up to the users whether and how they want to use labels (why can I only have one label per document?)

• Possible to delete work of others easily

They're good when needed. Sherpany offers a much more efficient way of working

Much easier to annotate documents, better User Interface which makes it very easy to access material discussed in earlier Meetings; also very easy to navigate between different topics on the agenda.

• The only negative thing I can see is that members can be victims of technostress and sometimes forget their password, how to find a document in a session. My role is to help them, reassure them and find a solution with them
• The positive is that all our members are often members of several committees at once and instead of receiving folders with a ton of documents, which are often cumbersome and heavy, everything is on the IPads. They can also annotate their documents as they want.

• Increased efficiency
• Improved Collaboration
• More effective Management
