Every type can be customized to address the needs of each meeting through "Settings" section. Such customizaation may include setting up of vote weight, formula for calculation of results etc. Participants of the meeting are given an option to vote using either buttons on delegates' workstations or touchscreens.
Integration capabilities[edit]
Apart from basic EMS functional capabilities, PATENTEM allows full integration with roughly all conference systems, use of Active Directory for system users and DCN CCU2 for microphone management.
Advantages[edit]
As any electronic meeting system in general and an independent product itself, PATENTEM has its unique advantages:[3]
- Anonymity – due to anonymity mode of most EMS systems, meeting participants are more secure and feel no longer vulnerable to be thought of as incompetent or foolish for their comments during issue discussion
- Group synergy – conducting a meeting, using EMS system has a positive effect on a decision making process, since participants tend to consider themselves as a united group, rather than individuals.
- Electronic records – thanks to automated record keeping, participants of the meeting no longer need to make notes, remember comments or fear that they may not hear or understand something, mentioned during the meeting. Meeting log is always accessible for participants during and even after the conference or meeting is over (log can be published on organization's website).
- Time saving - it has been proven that automated meetings are significantly faster in terms of time and participants need less time to discuss and conclude decisions.
- Among other factors that positively speak in favor of EMS systems are higher group satisfaction, support meetings with a huge number of participants, develop technical skills etc.
