What do you like best about Zeck?

Zeck has changed the focus of our meetings as well as the process of how the meeting is run. It has allowed for more engagement and dialogue while still providing the necessary content and information.

The ability to focus in on key concepts and information drives conversation and less regurgitation of materials individuals can read.

Zeck allows materials to be updated real time and comments and questions to be posed before a meeting starts.

Overall I have enjoyed how it has transformed our meetings and the ease of putting materials together for our staff. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zeck?

I do not have anything I dislike about Zeck. There are features and feedback I have provided as a heavy user that would enhance an already powerful platform. The fact that Zeck allows for this kind of user feedback is a positive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Allison Capaldi of Zeck

Hi Patrick - This is the best feedback ever. I think our founder actually shed a tear. You have no idea (ok maybe you do) how passionate we are about transforming the board meeting (and investor updates, all hands, etc) . The fact that you wrote 'Better meeting materials, better presentation, increased dialogue and engagement, and great efficiency for my staff' just lets us know that you're taking full advantage of all Zeck has to offer. So great and we love the feedback. Thank you so much!

"Changed the dynamic of our Board Meetings"
5/5
What do you like best about Zeck?

Our favorite part is the iterative and collaborative nature of putting together the information with all the disciplines seeing the entirety of the business at the same time. This paired with real time feedback once it is published allows us to get all the questions answered in order to focus our discussions on the bigger ideas and next steps. It is easy to use and very simple to add our information and details. We have begun using Zeck for other key stakeholder meetings. It saves so much time and the Zeck team has been available to help us improve how we use it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zeck?

Adding and seeing data is not as easy as we would like. Several Board Members have requested the full spreadsheet as they have trouble really seeing the data... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Allison Capaldi of Zeck

Hi Margaret! Thanks so much for your review! Love the fact that you're embracing the feedback portion of the platform. Nothing better than getting in a meeting and not have people re-read you the materials that you received days before. The fact tha tyou're focusing on bigger ideas and more forward-thinking initiatives is exactly the idea behind Zeck. This review made me happier than watching College Gameday on a cozy Saturday morning. Thanks again! Allison @ Zeck

"Excellent product that solves a specific problem with no fluff"
5/5
What do you like best about Zeck?

We've been using Zeck to run both board meetinga and internal staff meetings for about a year.

It's transformed the meetings entirely.

Instead of getting caught up in formatting and spin, we just plug in our content, share it, and go.

Since we can track which board members have reviewed the content and where they've spent their time, we know where the conversation will be. The ability to have questions submitted in advance and answer them in line means that we don't spend the first hour covering little clarifications. Instead we get right to the meat of the strategic topics.

It's both a time saver and a value creator. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zeck?

The UI can be a little clumsy at times, but the team at Zeck is really responsive to feedback and continuous improvement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Allison Capaldi of Zeck

Brian! Wow. We love hearing about our customer's experience using Zeck. We really did build the platform out of a problem we faced personally. So, hearing how much our customers love Zeck makes us so motivated and happy. LOVE that you're into the analytics (seeing what board members have read the materials, etc) and how beneficial it is to answer questions before the meeting. We keep hearing from our customers that they're using Zeck for board meetings, internal meetings, financial updates, investor updates, etc so love seeing that too. You're the best and thanks for the review! Allison @ Zeck

"Time Saver"
5/5
What do you like best about Zeck?

My admin assistant quit right before a board meeting. I needed a simple solution that took our board docket process and modernized it. Zeck is fairly easy to use and has the right amount of tools for the board to get the information they need. Sometimes, products are complex and do too much. Zeck has found the sweet spot. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zeck?

Well, Zeck is another program to work with. It does not integrate with our current archival system. This is not a major issue. We archive the source files separately. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Allison Capaldi of Zeck

Hi Glen! Thank you for the review, we are beyond happy that you're finding so much value in Zeck. And, people don't realize how game changing it is to be able to actually look at board materials on your phone! Makes a huge difference for sure. Thanks so much and if you need anything, we're always here to answer your questions! Allison @ Zeck

What do you like best about Zeck?

Using Zeck has been a game-changer for us. Initially, I was a bit skeptical about the structured templates, but I’ve come to appreciate how much it streamlines our process. We’ve crafted around 50 Zeck decks that we use regularly in team meetings and with key partners, and it’s saving us around 70-80% of the time we used to spend on similar updates. No need for graphic design help anymore – Zeck keeps everything professional and consistent, allowing us to focus more on the message than the design. Plus, I love the analytics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zeck?

Producing a PDF version is cumbersome, although I think that is a part of the design and to ensure accurate analytics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Allison Capaldi of Zeck

Larry! This is just so awesome to hear. A time savings of 70-80% is just wild, isn't it? I mean, we really can't get enough of hearing our customers tell us that they actually got time back in their day. It's the best feeling. Almost as good as when Dairy Queen opens in the spring. Have the best rest of your day and thanks so much, Allison @ Zeck

5/5
What do you like best about Zeck?

Super easy interface that doesn't take long to learn. I was literally creating my first Zeck in a matter of minutes. I can now dupliate them with one click and it makes it easy to get the next meeting Zeck prepared in less time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zeck?

Only thing I wish it had was a chat feature between organization members. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Allison Capaldi of Zeck

Hi Joe -

Thank you so much for reviewing us on G2! We LOVE that you found implementing Zeck so seamless and easy. A matter of minutes is what we strive for all of our customers! And, we love that you are seeing the value in being able to focus on forward-thinking conversations instead of re-reading a deck that you've already read. So much more engaging. Great idea about the chat feature between members. We'll definitely bring that up to our product team! And, please remember we love our customers and are here to answer and all questions you have. So feel free to reach out! Thanks so much, Allison @ Zeck

"Zeck swings for the fence and after some training, it delivers"
4/5
What do you like best about Zeck?

The Zeck onboarding team is smart, efficient, and empathetic. It can be hard to teach executives new tricks, but Zeck has cracked it.

They have an active development pipeline and have continually improved the product in the few months we have been users.

In the end, the thing that matters is measurable endpoint user engagement and that's where the product shines. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zeck?

Conceptually, it's a leap. When you view the results, it makes sense, when you are working on the parts, it feels new, unfamiliar, and frustrating... until it clicks.

Not everybody gets it the first couple of times they dive in; it's super helpful to see your own work expressed in their format to get the context and to understand the power of the tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Allison Capaldi of Zeck

Hi Bob! Thank you so much for the review. We are so happy that you've seen such an improvement in your engagement and that you are loving the product! As you already know, our team is always standing by to help with any questions you may have and make sure the product works perfectly for you. We're so happy you're seeing all of that come through for you and your team! Thank you so much...Allison at Zeck

"Easy and Effective Way to Share Board Materials"
5/5
What do you like best about Zeck?

Zeck is very easy to navigate. Features are clearly described, and the customer support team is very fast to respond to questions. We were able to implement the use of Zeck quickly, and our board members were eager to get on board. Not only do we use Zeck for board meeting materials, we also use Zeck for committee meetings and as a way to share additional information with our board. We utilize Zeck almost every day. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zeck?

The integration of outside applications or programs could be strengthened. It isn't a hindrance on my ability to use Zeck, but I work out of Microsoft products, and there's no Microsoft integration (yet). If you work from Google, the integration is excellent. Once integrated, it's very straightforward. I look forward to seeing how their integration options expand. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Allison Capaldi of Zeck

Hi there! Thank you so much for your review! We just LOVE the fact that you're using Zeck every day and for so much more than board meetings! We hear that a ton from our customers and even over here at Zeck, we use our own platform for board meetings, all hands, investor updates, leadership meetings and more.

On that Excel integration comment, we actually do have one! And it's amazing! Please reach out to your customer service rep and they'll be happy to share it all with you. But, we do have it, it works great, and we're excited to walk you through it all!

Have the best rest of your day and thank you so much! Allison @ Zeck

"Zeck has made board members more curious and more engaged!"
5/5
What do you like best about Zeck?

The platform is intuitive and easy to work with. Adding images, graphs, tables, text, and other elements is super easy. Most importantly, my board members love it and it is allowing us to essentially "train" the board to do the pre-reads in advance of the meeting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zeck?

Migrating Zecks from one section of our site to another difficult and would be so much easier if there was a "drag and drop" feature to move Zeck's around from one place to another. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Allison Capaldi of Zeck

Hi Steve and thank you for the G2 review! Love that you're no longer doing a 'parade of reports' - those are the absolute worst and so old school. So happy to hear you're doing pre-reads now and that your board members are engaged and loving Zeck:) I already brought up drag and drop to our product development team so we'll get them thinking about that solution! Thanks again and as always, we're here for any and all feedback, comments or just to chat. Love, Allison at Zeck
