Taking notes during meetings becomes much more manageable with Hugo, as users have found it to be a helpful tool in capturing all the points without missing any. Hugo effectively manages meetings with its collaborative features and integration with Google and Microsoft calendars, allowing for more efficient online meeting management. Users appreciate the ability to share meeting agendas before the meeting and access meeting minutes with action items after the meeting. The convenience problem often faced during presentations, where users have multiple tabs open, is solved by Hugo's combination of note-taking and calendar integration, providing a more streamlined experience.

Hugo fulfills the need for a single place to collaborate on projects while also keeping track of meetings, discussions, and decisions. Previously, users stored their meeting notes in various SaaS systems resulting in a complicated web of possibilities. With Hugo, all meeting notes are stored in one location, making it easier to access and review the company's note-taking history. The pleasing interface of Hugo is well-received by users who appreciate its integration with their calendars. They also find value in creating follow-up meetings and linking them to previous meetings, ensuring project continuity and providing a timeline of actions taken.

Individuals in the legal profession have found Hugo particularly useful as they navigate through different meetings covering various topics. Hugo assists users in keeping track of important conversations and next steps during meetings, creating a seamless experience. Users can easily share meeting notes with colleagues and agency partners, promoting collaboration and transparency. Even the basic version of Hugo is appreciated by users for its quick daily use in group note-taking and organizing meeting agendas.

The implementation of Hugo has resulted in increased business productivity by providing structure to business meetings and simplifying note-taking processes. Organizations benefit from having an organized system that allows for easy retrieval of relevant notes, tasks, and decisions. Through its auto-organization capabilities based on attendees, companies, and meeting details, Hugo prevents communication breakdowns while saving valuable time for organizations.

The combination of calendar and note-taking, addresses the problem of convenience, especially when it comes to meetings that involve presentation - you usually have hundreds of tabs open, hence having software that can at least combine 2 of these tabs into one is a lot of help since you are usually off your double screen during such meetings.
  • Convenience
  • Smart access.
  • Efficiency
  • Ways to combine more functions.
  • It could be more User-friendly.
  • Limits you to a particular calendar event when taking notes.
I think it's important to understand that software recommendations do not come up casually during conversations with your friends so recommending it with no agenda is off the table. However, if someone asks me for tips on note-taking during calls my first priority would be OneNote because it just has more functionality and is usually built-in, meaning you don't have to search for anything online. The second priority would be Hugo though.
  • Its importance is limited to note taking.
  • Return on investment is great - used basic free version while it lasted.
  • Engagement is key - more basic features might potentially lead to users wanting to sign up for premium.
OneNote is just classic - people who have been using it will never consider switching to a newcomer like Hugo. One limitation that OneNote has though which Hugo might be able to play to its advantage is - high barriers to the entrance for new users. It's not exactly intuitive to navigate at first if you have never used it before, hence you should be targeting those users instead of chasing users loyal to OneNote.

For me, having a single place where everyone I work with (both inside and outside the organization) can collaborate on projects as well as keep track of meetings, talks, and decisions is a need. Hugo - Meeting Notes Software fills that need. Previously, our meeting notes were stored in SaaS systems such as Slack and the Google Suite. We now have them all in one location. As a result of using many tools to record our notes, we felt a little out of place. Our notes were a jumbled web of possibilities. It was difficult for us to locate our notes from critical meetings since we could not locate them quickly enough. It's now all in one place: Hugo, where we can access our company's note-taking history. The issue has been resolved without any bother or muss.
  • Hugo - Meeting Notes Software removes ambiguity and uncertainty from discussions.
  • Participants from both inside and outside the organization can work together on agendas and minutes before and after the meeting.
  • The Hugo extension for Google Calendar may be used to arrange and follow up on meetings, both online and offline, as part of your Google calendar.
  • Instead of allowing the user to pick and then rearrange meetings, Hugo - Meeting Notes Software appears to gray out past events.
  • When it comes to finding notes, there are simply too many alternatives and a correspondingly poor user experience.
  • I'd like to be able to delete multiple tasks at once. When I go behind, I need a new start.
Using Hugo - Meeting Notes Software during a conference or any other meeting is highly recommended because of its outstanding note-taking abilities. Organizing a conference has never been easier thanks to this application. When compared to other note-taking software options, this one is less priced and requires no ongoing maintenance after installation. It aids in data security by having an autosave button and backup storage.
  • Hugo - Meeting Notes Software is a great tool for keeping track of all the details of your meetings in one place. Minutes, tasks, and any other important information are included here.
  • An easy-to-use app
  • Intuitive
  • It's a time saver
Only Hugo - Meeting Notes Software could address my problems better than any other software I tried, and none of them came close. Worth a try. Despite its simplicity, it packs a tremendous punch thanks to its extensive feature set. For example, you can view all your upcoming meetings because it syncs with your calendar. In addition to being able to see previous meeting documents, you can also check who else is in the room and share agendas. To make your life even easier, templates can automatically generate tasks for you.

I have tried using Hugo for meeting notes and task organization. It helped a lot in helping me keep track of important conversations during meetings, as well as next steps to take. The experience is also made much more seamless as I am able to share meeting notes with colleagues and agency partners.
  • Keeps a clear record of notes that I take during meetings
  • Has a clean and organized interface
  • Allows collaboration and easy access of notes
  • Can improve on auto-save functionality
  • Integrations can only be utilized using pro accounts
  • Random bugs/glitches while note taking
I've found Hugo to be very useful when looking for specific asks/next steps coming from past meetings. It is very easy to find old notes which I can refer to in relation to action logs and next steps. Can't really think of scenarios where I have found Hugo to be less appropriate.
  • Closing acton logs to set clearer paths to business goals
  • Serves as good reference tool for important conversations that impact business objectives
  • Fosters easy collaboration within the organization
Hugo is a great alternative for small organizations or teams. It is not too pricey but offers good functionalities and features. It also has a simple yet very effective and easy to navigate interface. I would definitely recommend Hugo Meeting Notes Software especially for teams or organizations that are still starting out.

Taking notes within the group, the agenda of the meeting. I am amused with the basics version for quick daily use.
  • Hugo extension is built-in to personal Google Calendar
  • Scheduling & follow-up process of managing meetings
  • Online and/or offline agenda sharing.
  • Doc sharing options.
  • Rich functionality for competitive current market product.
  • User group management.
Able to manage calendar and meeting notes at the same point. The clean and organized interface and the application are updated with improvements. It helps to reduce the number of other apps I use to manage my daily work.
  • I manage my own calendar and all meeting notes.
  • It helps to reduce the number of applications need for daily activities.
  • Ablilty to collaborate with teammates and create template for meeting agenda.

Taking notes during meetings It very much helps in making notes of all the points without missing any. I have been using it for close to around 2 years and have enjoyed using it. I would recommend it to all the people who don't like to make notes using pen and paper.
  • Taking non-meeting notes
  • Calendar integrations
  • It provides a place to manage tasks
  • It needs improvement for cases like 1:1s
  • Feedback notes
  • Template creation speed needs to be improved
It is best used in cases like 1:1 meetings where the individuals need to take very quick notes as the other person is talking. It is very well useful for basic meeting notes. It is less appropriate for cases like final feedback. One can also create templates but the user experience for this needs to be improved.
  • It saves a lot of time
  • the basic version has a little fewer features
  • it saves pen and paper
The quality of support is better with Hugo. Ease of use is also good with Hugo than when compared to Coda. Hugo met our requirements, so decided to choose it over Coda. It is easier to set up Hugo when compared to Coda and it saves a lot of time.
