Spend hours less looking and reclaim hundreds to thousands of wasted hours a year and put that found time to use earning new business with new clients or enhancing your existing clients business relationship.

Clients can be granted either a “viewer” or “editor” permission and can access the content through a free viewer license. For further portability, the minutes books can be converted into a PDF file, HTML5, or simply print it off.
Updating could not be easier; simply add a document with a couple clicks of your mouse and you are done, even if the Corporate Minute Book is at the clients site, they will also receive the changes, instantly.
In the Office or On The Move
Lawyers, Accountants, other professional representatives and Clients alike can all have remote access to these and other content that was formerly kept in a physical paper binder.
