Take Charge of Your Meetings with Meeting Manager

CyberMatrix Corporation has released version 1.43 of CyberMatrix Meeting Manager, an office meeting scheduler. Meeting Manager can dramatically improve the productivity of companies still using traditional paper-based solutions for meeting scheduling.

Meeting Manager is an easy to use multi-user application that coordinates the booking of meeting room resources in office buildings. Bookable resources can be the meeting rooms themselves or special equipment needed for meetings such as overhead projectors. Resources can be grouped into blocks which can themselves be booked.

Each booking contains information about what the meeting is about, the contact name and extension and the network username of the person who booked the resource.

Meeting resources can be booked using sophisticated recurring events having daily, weekly and monthly options. As an example, a meeting room can be booked on the last Friday of every three months. An end date for the recurring event may also be entered. A single booking in a recurring event may be deleted or the entire event itself can be cancelled.

The Week-At-A-Glance feature allows a quick view of all bookings for a resource in the current week. The Resources-At-A-Glance feature shows the bookings of all resources for the selected day. A booking report shows all the bookings for a single resource or all resources, within a user defined time period. Reports can be sorted by date or by resource.

Reports can be exported to HTML format. This allows meeting schedules to be made available on the company intranet or even the Internet.

A search feature locates all the available rooms in a given time period. This feature is ideal for those who must meet at a specific time but do not care which room they meet in.

Two extra security levels exist. These levels are used to limit the booking of certain resources and for overriding booking edits and deletions. Logging in as Administrator allows Meeting Manager options to be changed. Administrators can also delete or edit any booking regardless of who booked it. In the default User level security, only the booker of a resource may edit or delete that booking. Logging in as Superuser allows the booking of resources that have been designated as having exclusive access.

An option exists, which if set, requires a user to login either as Administrator or Superuser in order to book resources or change bookings. This effectively gives view-only access to most users.

Details about a given meeting resource may be brought up with the touch of a button. The details include a description of the resource, the numbers of people a meeting room normally holds and the equipment usually found in that room.

Meeting Manager can be easily be configured to maintain a list of sites and their network locations. Users can open different sites so that bookings at those sites can be viewed or added. This feature applies to those companies that have several different sites accessible within the same network.

Meeting Manager runs on Windows 95, 98 and NT 4.0.

Meeting Manager costs $2500 for a site license. Network and single-user licenses are available. Screen shots and a fully functional trial version can be obtained from http://www.cyber-matrix.com. For more information, contact:
