Re:Schedule: A Calendar that Will Change the Way You Work [Sponsor]
Re:Schedule is a new kind of calendar for busy professionals and team leaders that fuses time management, team collaboration, and meetings into a comprehensive package that will help you work more efficiently than ever before.
The power of Re:Schedule starts with its Day View, a unique take on managing the two competing demands on your time: meetings and tasks. By combining them side-by-side, you can allocate your time better than ever before. For example, you can drag tasks to your calendar to block off time to ensure they get finished or review a meeting’s agenda and its open action items all at once.
Organizing collaboration with Re:Schedule is a more natural way to work with others too. Information is organized by time, eliminating the overhead of managing folders, projects, teams, and permissions. The week and month views are perfect for managing tasks and understanding what needs your attention now.
Meeting workspaces bring every aspect of a meeting together in an easy-to-use interface that keeps your meetings on track and productive. Just tap on a meeting, and its workspace opens, allowing you to organize notes by agenda item and assign tasks to meeting participants who can follow along with the agenda during the meeting. When your meeting is finished, Re:Schedule automatically shares your notes with each participant. Even your team members who don’t use Re:Schedule can benefit from it thanks to email notifications.
Re:Schedule is fantastic for recurring meetings too. The app tracks a meeting’s history, organizing notes chronologically to help track past decisions and progress. Re:Schedule also enables you to see open tasks from past meetings and syncs with your Google Calendar account.
Transform the way you work in 2020 by signing up for Re:Schedule’s 30-day free trial today.
Our thanks to Re:Schedule for sponsoring MacStories this week.
