What do you like best about MinuteBox?

I just completed helping my father migrate his entire law practice of corporate minute book binders from paper to MinuteBox. There were a couple reasons for this, primarily ,my dad has transitioned away from practicing on premise at his law office and required a solution that would allow him to see and view all of his minute books from home or the cottage. The timing of this decision was very good, given the global pandemic, which only reinforced the need to work remotely. Second, we are starting succession planning for his law office as he is now retiring and only working a fraction of the house that he regularly did. It would not have been possible to transition the law practice to a new practitioner with the current state of the physical minute books, which had not been backed up until being moved to the cloud.

So far we have loved the onboarding process. The team has been with us every step of the way, helping us figure out which plan to use, how to transition and to get training under way very quickly. Just being able to access everything remotely from home has been transformational, especially for my father.

The interface was way simpler than I had anticipated, especially for my father who is older and does not regularly use a computer. Despite this, he was quickly able to understand the basics of MinuteBox and easily start accessing his client data. One new benefit that was not originally thought about, but which quickly became one of the favourites is the ability to share the books with clients as well.

What do you dislike about MinuteBox?

Since we started using MinuteBox there has been nothing that we do not like. The sign-in and authentication process was a bit new and different from what we were used to for most online platforms, but being able to securely authenticate without using passwords has been a game changer. We had some questions in order to understand how the authentication process worked when we got started and support was really responsive. They sent over the white paper so we understood not just how their authentication works but all aspects of their system's security. Other than that, we have not had any issues yet.

Recommendations to others considering MinuteBox:

Make sure to speak to the support team before signing up with MinuteBox so you can get a good sense of how they can help you and what your initial onboarding and training will look like. You will need to be dedicated to some simple training in order to get up and running with the system, but after that it is very turn key and easy to learn. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is MinuteBox solving and how is that benefiting you?

Getting all of the minute books for the practice into a secure cloud that could be accessed from everywhere was by far the biggest problem that was solved. But also having access to all of the entity data as part of that transition has been a big problem solved as well.

We have also begun using MinuteBox for sharing with clients, storing capital data for the corporations, generating ledgers and registers, managing legal persons and looking at the automatically generated organizational ownership charts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about MinuteBox?

I am a virtual corporate law and owner of VanillaBiz, which provides freelance and outsourced corporate law clerk services. The previous corporate records management software I was using had become outdated and was not keeping up with the technological advances that my business required. After researching various software platforms, I chose MinuteBox as my new solution for corporate records management. The data migration process from my old software platform to MinuteBox was a fairly seamless process. MinuteBox was there every step of the way for me through the onboarding and implementation process. From the start I have been impressed with the amount of training materials available and the ongoing support that I have received.

MinuteBox is transforming the way I do business and easily allows me to share information and corporate records with the lawyers and end clients that I am working with, without the cumbersome process of downloading and saving PDFs every time there is an update to a record. MinuteBox also supports multiple entity types, such as family trusts and limited partnerships, which is something my old software could not do. Being able to have entity information and records readily available for these additional entity types allows me to provide value added service that was just not possible before.

What do you like best about MinuteBox?

I started using MinuteBox over a year ago when I convinced one of my clients to transition to virtual minute books. We were constantly sifting through hard copy books, manually creating registers and ledgers, and the process was ineffective. After seeing the first demo, I was convinced that the platform would change our workflow entirely – and that is exactly what it did! The training, onboarding and overall support that we received were amazing. The system is so easy to use, and the fact that we can collaborate and share information easily and securely is a huge bonus. MinuteBox has its own templates, or you can quickly and easily create your own, which has been very helpful to us. I love that the system is constantly evolving and new features are being added. I would undoubtedly recommend MinuteBox for those looking to advance their corporate practice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about MinuteBox?

MinuteBox successfully brings corporate legal practice squarely into the virtual world of the 21st century.What first began as a secure location to record and store digital copies of physical minute books has evolved into a virtual one-of-a-kind, easy-to-use corporate practice solution designed for the legal profession. MinuteBox provides a secure, centralized cloud environment; a comprehensive, easy-to-use interface and document creation capability; and the means for each law firm to easily tailor the application to fit its specifications. Each element of MinuteBox’s solution is highly customizable: from the entity management screen, the entity summary screen, viewing the digitized copy of a minute book, to creating precedents and producing corporate documents. Onboarding is simple – you can’t get any easier then dragging and dropping files!

You may use existing corporate document templates or create your own. Creating custom templates, whether simple or complex, has never been easier. Document assembly is automated, increasing accuracy and efficiency. The ability to provide secure access to all of this information to clients and their approved service providers is invaluable.

Best of all, MinuteBox’ s customer service is exceptional! Wonderfully helpful and quick to respond, the MinuteBox team truly listens to its customers wants and needs. The proof is in the phenomenal growth and rapid, ever-expanding capabilities of the MinuteBox solution: a solution that continues to simplify corporate practices without sacrificing its easy-to-use and easy-to-customize functionality.

What do you like best about MinuteBox?

As a small business owner, I've always felt like I've paid my law firm an arm and a leg for things like photocopies, postage etc that always end up on my bill each year.

Finally, they have delivered something that I consider truly value-add.

I love how streamlined the whole platform is. I am able to login and see not only my minute book but also all of my key data. I've had my law firm share my business records with my accountants and even my corporate insurance agent.

All to say, it's great software that's easy to use. I love it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MinuteBox?

There's not much to dislike. It does exactly what I need and I'm actually finding my lawyer to be more efficient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is MinuteBox solving and how is that benefiting you?

I'm using it to manage my handful of entities. My lawyer shares them with me in read only (so I don't make any mistakes!) and it's so simple for me to pull up this information in one place. I used to use Google Drive for this but was always nervous about losing the files or not keeping them up to date. When I started working with my firm, it was all paper so we've definitely made progress 😄 Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about MinuteBox?

At CEO Law Canada, we believe that traditional law is broken and we are on a mission to fix it. We provide companies with world class lawyers at a fair price, delivering solutions in a responsive, connected way. MinuteBox has been an essential tool in enabling our customer-first efficiency-driven business model. Since day one, we have operated as a distributed, remote-work business. This meant that, from the get go, we have looked for solutions that allow our team to communicate and collaborate together without requiring a centralized office environment. MinuteBox provides a centralized cloud environment that enables our distributed team to work together in providing great service to our clients. We use MinuteBox as one centralized single source of truth for all corporate governance records including client minute books, perpetual or time-limited sharing of minute books with clients lawyers outside of our firm, all ledgers and registers, capitalization tables, board resolutions, by-laws and incorporation documents.
 We like using MinuteBox for the quick creation of new documents, especially because the easy visual editor allows our team to quickly adapt and make changes to precedent documents without requiring specialized tools or assistance. Along with this, we also use MinuteBox to automatically create and fill-in government forms for filing. All documents that we create can also be automatically sent for signature with DocuSign, which we use at our firm.
 Our clerks and administrative teams rely heavily on the calendar and tickler system, which reminds us of important dates both inside the MinuteBox system and by Email. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MinuteBox?

That we didn’t know about MinuteBox earlier. I wish we knew about this platform when we first started CEO Law, as it would have made it even simpler to create a distributed legal services solution from day one. MinuteBox was clearly designed for modern teams and operations. Knowing about it sooner would have been helpful in developing our procedures to create greater efficiencies from day one. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering MinuteBox:

There seem to be others claiming to offer “cloud” solutions but when we evaluated them we quickly realized that it is not an apples to apples comparison. Some other solutions only offer partial features in the cloud or, even worse, are not actually cloud-based, but require VPNs to remotely login to an on-premises solution, claiming to be in the cloud. There were a couple other solutions that seemed to be cloud-based and even had some certifications, but it seems that only MinuteBox was built by a team with real cybersecurity experience, which cannot be overstated when keeping client data in the cloud. We really feel confident in MinuteBox and their security and this was one of the main reasons we went with them in the first place, only to end up loving many other aspects of their platform as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is MinuteBox solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have solved minute book and entity management problems and are grateful to have MinuteBox as our solution! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about MinuteBox?

We've been using MinuteBox for quite a while now and it has completely revolutionized our global entity management practice. Starting from its ease of use to the quick onboarding we have been extremely impressed. More than anything we are blown away by the level of support we have received from the team, who are extremely responsive and helpful.

We use MinuteBox for advanced entity management across various global jurisdictions. MinuteBox has made it easy for my colleagues and I to collaborate between ourselves but also with external clients.

Our most used features are the organizational charts, which just automatically create themselves and the share capital. We do a lot of unique share capital tracking for all sorts of different entities and the flexibility of the capital system has been really helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MinuteBox?

There is nothing to dislike about MinuteBox. The support team is incredibly responsive and quick to answer questions and we have really liked going through the training which helped us get up and running really quickly. The training was structured in a very logical way and our team did a bit each day, it was very straightforward. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering MinuteBox:

If you are doing any sort of entity management you have to consider MinuteBox, especially if you are not in the cloud yet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is MinuteBox solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use MinuteBox for global entity management of various subsidiaries and legal entities in different jurisdictions. With this solution we are able to solve a large amount of problems including entity governance, ownership charts and cap tables. Outside of the specific features that we use, just having all of our information available in the cloud has been an amazing change for us, as we previously relied on keeping all this data scattered across various on premises solutions and we didn't even have a proper backup.

What do you like best about MinuteBox?

MinuteBox is so easy to use and I was able to integrate it into my existing practice and workflow extremely easily. It has opened up a new revenue stream for my practice and allows me to do work for clients more efficiently and easily than ever. Since my practice relocated to being fully remote, the secure cloud that MinuteBox offers has been a lifesaver. Now I can see all my client information from my home office and easily and securely grant access to clients. Best of all when there are transactional deals, CRA audits or we need to send information to the bank on behalf of a client, MinuteBox makes this extremely easy.

Other things we really like:

- the interface is clean and simple

- global search for all information that is lightning fast

- share ledgers & registers

- significant control registers

- easy advanced share capital transactions Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MinuteBox?

Nothing so far. The support team has got me up and running really quickly and even helped me get all my precedents in order. I've now added some of my own precedents myself using the visual editor, which is way easier than the "coding" required in other apps. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering MinuteBox:

Definitely make sure to look around the market at the other options. You will quickly see that while other options might seem comparable, only MinuteBox could meet our security requirements and was actually easy to use. We tried another similar service as well and it just did not live up to its promises. Document assembly was clunky, hard to use and kept making mistakes. Once we got ourselves setup with MinuteBox, producing documents with the visual editor was a breeze and they came out correctly every time. Another thing that was really important to use was data portability. We had another provider that we were looking at but when we asked them if they would include data portability in case we ever decided to leave into their contract they said no, which was a big red flag. For MinuteBox, data portability was simply a standard part of their contract. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is MinuteBox solving and how is that benefiting you?

Creating a new revenue stream for my law firm, which allows me to offer new services to existing clients and also reach a new client base.

Also, securely accessing client data from the cloud while my team works remotely. Sharing with clients and other counsel as required.

Having one centralized place to store all information for my clients is key to creating efficiencies in the practice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
