Jamy Reviews

So far, I just connected it to my Google Calendar and it automatically attends my meetings whether I join or not. It takes notes about the meetings and logs the general tasks discussed. I don’t know what else I should be expecting, but it’s blown my mind and saved me from the feeling of missing out when I can’t attend every meeting.

If ALL you need is transcription, then this is a great product at the T1 level.

However, for me, I was looking forward to the "actionable reports". I got it and tried it, but without the "custom meeting templates", it just doesn't work. You can't use ANY templates. I thought (wrongly) that there would be some templates that a T1 buyer could use, but no.

I'm kind of bummed because I used my $25 quarterly credit toward my purchase, and I won't get that back when I refund. But I'm likely going to refund this anyway. I already have another similar product so won't be upgrading to get the "Custom Templates" which are needed for my use case (charity club meeting minutes).

One of the biggest indicators of product success in my mind is how responsive and willing the company behind the product is. My questions were always answered quickly and when a bit more was needed, they moved me to email to handle my issues. THAT is what makes me stay with a product when it might not be perfect. Is Jamy perfect? No, of course not. Is it worth it to get the higher level to get customization? YES! And the unlimited minutes/recordings is something you can't find everywhere. Definitely give it a try - it's a great little product that will eventually exceed the competition!!

I have been hoping that a meeting note taker (MNT) would show up on AS for a while now, and Jamy is pretty much exactly what I have been looking for.

Biggest draw - Unlimited transcriptions and summaries from live recordings or uploaded content. I have not seen another MNT that allows for UNLIMITED usage. The previous MNT I was using did have unlimited live meetings, but limited anything that was uploaded outside of their system.

Customizable Templates - This was the next biggest draw for me. Being able to customize the summaries that the system creates. My previous MNT didn't offer this at all. You can create a template from the ground up. I am still learning how to do this, but it isn't that hard, and the system makes it easier by creating components that you can add to templates and re-use. Very diverse options. Also, there is a public list of items that Jamy and other users can create and share! I have never seen this in any other MNT.

Folders - Sounds basic right? Being able to sort meetings into different folders. Well, my previous MNT didn't even offer this at all. Very easy to create and add meetings to folders.

Other negative reviews on this product - There are other reviews of Jamy that I don't think are fair. 1 star review because the system wasn't optimized for candidate reviews? Jamy offers that option via customized templates, but they didn't want to buy tier 4. I don't think that warrants a 1 star review. So if you are reading this, take that with a grain of salt.

Things I would like to see / improvements:
a) The UI is basic, it doesn't feel polished. This will probably change overtime, but doesn't take away from the usage of the product itself.
b) Phone recording is not included at all at any tier. I think at least a small amount of minutes should be included, at the very least in the top tier. However, this is still not a deal breaker for me at all, would just be a nice addition to the offering.

Final conclusion - I ended up buying tier 5. Not because I needed 15 seats, I really only need 1 right now, but because I wanted all of the features the system offers. Would I have liked the chat feature on tier 4. Absolutely. However, I can completely understand that this is a LTD, and the developers need to weight long term costs versus immediate income. In my opinion, it is still worth it. The previous MNT I was using cost $30 a month. Jamy pays for itself, JUST FOR ME, in less than 2 years, and I feel that is a very good value proposition.

Now that Jamy has made an audit and fixed the issue, we can really use the tool for our meetings.
