Key Differences Between Fellow and Hugo
Support for 1-on-1 meetings
Experts agree that one-on-one meetings are an essential tool to foster relationships, boost productivity, and address issues.
Since they are such important meetings, Fellow has built-in dedicated space for 1-on-1s with suggested topics, feedback, private notes, and the entire history of your past conversations. In Hugo, 1-on-1s are treated as just another type of meeting with a custom template.
Native apps
With Hugo, you have to stay tethered to your internet browser in order to take meeting notes.
But you can use Fellow wherever you work via the mobile or desktop apps.
Added context
In Hugo, tasks and action items live in their own side bar and are not really part of the note. This can cause some context to be lost as to why the task was created, and more details about what the task involves.
But with Fellow, action items can be added and included anywhere in the note. Which means that when someone looks back on the note, it’s easy to understand the full context and intent behind the action item. This can reduce confusion and increase accountability – which is kind of a dream scenario.

Restoration of order to the universe
Fellow is a system where you can queue up your thoughts for discussion with the right people which relieves your brain of using its scarce neurological RAM, and saves your co-workers time by consolidating 20 mini meetings into one temporally efficient one. If you are the type of person that is serious about your work, I would highly recommend trying out Fellow.

The glue that keeps me together
This tool is the glue that keeps me together. I have been able to pull together so many parts of my day all in one tool. I can capture meeting notes, record action items, plan my goals, and get feedback for my team members. I can organize so many areas all in one tool. Big bonuses are the articles that are shared with users every week. There are so many great articles that help me to continue to learn and grow in my role.

Fellow gives me superpowers
Fellow is my second brain. It helps me keep all of my one-on-ones organized, track goals for my reports, remember important details about their lives. Fellow provides helpful suggestions for those times when a one-on-one might be slower than usual and I need inspiration for areas to cover. Fellow also allows our teams to collaborate on meeting agendas in real time, keep notes for those meetings and provide accountability for follow-ups.

Love love love Fellow
I love that I have everything I need to collaborate with others in one place. Particularly, the meeting agendas and that they’re linked to Google calendar events! Having recurring meetings, specifically 1:1’s separated into Streams makes it really easy to find and look back on all the things we’ve discussed. I especially enjoy the feature of carrying forward unchecked agenda or action items. The templates feature is amazing as well – having suggestions for 1:1s or feedback requests.

Significantly improved our remote working environment
Templates are a game-changer for our team. We quickly upgraded to an Organization plan in order to utilize them, and it’s worth every penny. Our HR team setup some core templates for 1:1’s, leadership meetings, etc. which has made it much easier for our team to stay consistent and aligned with corporate objectives.

I Fellow ALL the things
I appreciate how organized Fellow keeps me. Not only do I use Fellow to make an agenda and take notes for every meeting and 1:1, but I also have various Private Streams that I use to keep track of things like a Weekly To-Do List, Projects, My Impact, Leadership Books, etc. It’s awesome to be able to prepare an agenda ahead of time, link in any relevant material, then have the attendees collaborate together and compile notes together.
