right prescription for effective meetings
Friedman and one of her colleagues told CureSeq executives that
the online meeting platforms they were using were not acceptable.

Since the implementation, the issues CureSeq experienced with
previous online meeting tools have disappeared. Call quality

document sharing and review are seamless and glitch-free,
she says.

“We’ve had a few instances where folks have said, ‘I can hear you
so well,’” Friedman adds. “It’s the clarity. Calls are very clear and the
fact that WebEx doesn’t stutter has helped our international callers

CureSeq now easily shares research and
test results with clients
Document sharing has become much less cumbersome, as well.
Users can switch easily between different applications, such as
PowerPoint or a PDF, to share information, Friedman says. They
can select an individual document or presentation from a screen-
sharing drop-down in WebEx rather than making the entire
desktop visible. This feature allows Friedman and her colleagues to
control what is viewed, ensuring privacy for company-confidential
information. She also finds the annotation tools useful. “I like the
features where you can draw on the slides,” she says. “That’s
really handy to be able to call out different points.”
