Alternatives/equivalents to Docket features
Fellow gives you access to 1-on-1 notes, team meeting notes, as well as non-meeting related note streams. With Fellow, you're able to easily store your notes, access your note history and review your action items in an organized way. Here are some specifics alternatives/equivalents to the Docket features you love:
Templates - Fellow has an extensive library of 400+ meeting templates that can easily be applied to meeting agenda. Browse the full library on our website or visit the in-app template section via the main navigation.
Daily digests - Receive daily digests via Slack, MS Teams, or in your email inbox. You can set this up/customize this by visiting User Settings --> Notifications. The digests will contain a preview of that day's meetings, outstanding action items, and pending feedback requests.
Meeting recaps - After your meeting, easily share the notes via email, Slack/MS Teams, or a CRM by clicking on the Send notes button at the top of the note. This doesn't have to be a manual process though, you can set it up so that post-meeting recaps are sent automatically whenever a meeting ends.
Resource sharing - Easily share resources by 1) attaching the content to the Fellow note, 2) embedding files from Figma, Google Docs, etc directly into the body of the note, 3) add a tab to Fellow notes to give everyone in the meeting quick access to important documents, spreadsheets, etc.
Recurring meeting history and carry forward - Recurring meeting notes will be linked in a running series in Fellow. And, if you don't have a chance to cover then no worries! These incomplete talking points and action items will be automatically carried forward to the next instance of that meeting.
In meeting timer - Ensure that your meetings stay on track with a countdown timer at the top of your Fellow meeting note. This timer is located underneath the title of the note in the note header.

Suggested workflows
When first getting started with Fellow, we highly recommend installing our apps and extensions including our desktop app, mobile app, and Chrome/Firefox extensions. The Chrome/Firefox extension will allow you to bring your meeting notes right into Google Meet, just like it worked with Docket and Zoom.
We also suggest setting up meeting automations including:
Time Saver: If there is no agenda created for a meeting, Fellow will either automatically cancel the meeting or prompt participants to cancel it themselves. Because "no agenda, no attenda".
Pre-meeting Reminders: Send out automatic reminders to meeting participants before the meeting starts
Post-meeting Recaps: Send meeting attendees the notes after the meeting has ended.
