### "Fireflies - A great investment."

May 4, 2026

5.0

Great. I love this product, saves me from missing important information and saves me heaps of time. It has helped me maintain business with clients because of what I have NOT missed in meetings!

Pros

It captures things I would otherwise miss from meetings and then summarises. Saves me time and effort.

Cons

Its interface is bit busy and sometimes requires a bit of navigating before finding what I am looking for.

### "ULTRA HAPPY WITH FIREFLIES"

December 1, 2025

5.0

Great! I'm happy, I'm also using it to enhance my studies, I'm currently trying to learn a new skill, and it is thanks to the transcripts i can record and later consult and use them as material.

Pros

It is easy to use, reliable for meetings, summaries, and to keep track of action items. I am now using it for study

Cons

I love the IA emails, but it gets exhausted too fast when in organizations such as mine, you have multiple meetings and users that invite you.

### "Fireflies gave me back time!"

February 3, 2026

5.0

Pros

Very user friendly which made me use it right away. Both agent version on desktop and app on cellphone made my life easier in several ways. The summary after the meeting is almost ready to go for sending to people, and even doesnt need to send, the application itself send it directly.

Cons

very few times, there were some meetings that the agent didn´t join automaticaly, which made loose the transcription.

### "An Efficient Solution for Meeting Summaries"

January 23, 2026

5.0

Overall, Fireflies has been a helpful and time-saving tool that makes meeting notes and follow-ups much easier.

Pros

I liked Fireflies’ ability to automatically record, transcribe, and summarize meetings accurately. The highlights, action items, and searchable transcripts made it easy to review discussions and follow up without missing key points.

Cons

Occasionally, the transcription accuracy drops with strong accents or background noise, and real-time summaries can lag slightly during longer meetings.

### "Perfect Note Taker for Coaches"

April 6, 2026

5.0

Ten out of then on all the insights I got after a call are both useful for me and my coachees. It allows me to be more present during a conversation.

Pros

Especially useful for coaches like me for capturing insights from sessions without losing presence in the conversation. The language selection is extensive and competitive.

Cons

I don't like that it occupies space in Google Meet when I invite it to a 1:1 intimate coaching experience. It would be great if there was a chance to make it invisible.

### "My Fireflies Experience"

February 2, 2026

5.0

Very good experience which has helped me to be efficient, and catch up quickly on meetings I could not fully attend

Pros

Call recording and summaries were very helpful and saved me time in capturing minutes of meetings and lecture notes

Cons

Mixing summaries for two concurrent calls on different topics. For meeting following each other, Fireflies produced summaries for the first meeting that had content from the next meeting

### "Lifesaver for Startups!"

March 31, 2026

5.0

I love that Fireflies automatically captures what I want and more. Overall, I'm very happy with Fireflies. However, if there was another company that did everything Fireflies did and was priced the same but didn't charge for extra tokens, I would go with the other company.

Pros

I am a CEO of a startup and I have so many back to back meeting and it's hard to keep up. I love Fireflies because it records the meetings, summarizes them, creates action items, connects to Claude, and auto populates in Notion. It's a time and life saver!

Cons

I really don't like that I have to pay for credits in addition to a monthly fee. I can plan for a monthly fee and know my budget, but the additional tokens throw a curveball that I don't like.

### "Best AI note taker"

January 31, 2026

5.0

It is one of the best AI packages I have ever used.. I highly recommend it. It is one of the easiest and best user experiences I have ever encountered

Pros

It is amazing at taking and summarizing notes from meetings. I like the way it also automatically logs into all of my meetings

Cons

Would like a little more control of when it automatically engages. Sometimes it is difficult to stop it from logging into the packages

### "Almost perfect meeting summary tool."

October 22, 2025

5.0

It'a good tool overall i sore it 9/10. It generates almost perfect very detailed and usable summaries with todos by person. I can concentrate on the meeting to the topic not to making notes. It sends summaries by email, and weekly summary about the meetings athough the transcript not too good in Hungarian.

Pros

It generates almost perfect very detailed and usable summaries with todos by person. I can concentrate on the meeting to the topic not to making notes. It sends summaries by email, and weekly summary about the meetings.

Cons

Unhappily it not automatically set the language, so I have to do it manually in case of diffenent language meetings. The transcripts in hungarian is no too good, suprisingly the summaries 99% good.

Alternatives considered

Reason for choosing Fireflies

It worked better and made better summaries about the meetings.

### "Game changer!"

October 3, 2025

5.0

It took a little time in the platform to get a feel for the process and applications, but after using it one or two times it became clear. I feel like there is more functionality that I am missing in terms of education and understanding, but so far it's been very helpful with the basics.

Pros

It's ease of use and the thorough summary generated after important meetings and calls. Information is organized in a concise and detailed manner with action items clearly identified at the end of each summary.

Cons

I wish it was easier to edit the summaries with an automized setting to make certain changes, i.e. removing timestamps from summary and find and replace to correct name spellings, etc.

### "Thanks Fireflies! My business is taking off thanks to you "

February 13, 2026

5.0

Awesome. What can I say? I use all the time. I keep my meetings recorded and I use the platform to sommarize everything and keep it neat.

Pros

Great quality actionable summaries, high volume, automatic recording. What can I say? I use it very day.

Cons

Interface, I want to upload more files at once. I may not be aware but automated meeting summaries sent to my clients is great.

### "Overall a Good Experience - Consider Toggle for Quick Teams add-in"

January 14, 2026

4.0

It has overall been a great experience as it fast tracks the days by not letting us indulge into drafting summary emails.

Pros

Fireflies is easy to use and understand, also the best part is that it has an invuilt AI Feature to summarize the notes post meeting, which reduces the effort hours significantly.

Cons

The ability to add Fireflies in to meeting - on the go. It's a tedious process to add Fireflies to an ongoing process by fetching and pasting the link. If the admin has an inbuilt button or feature like an add-in within Teams to include or call Fireflies in the meeting it will be a great feature. Further, if a person leaves the organization it is very difficult to delete their fireflies from entering our meetings.

### "Fireflies is good"

March 3, 2026

5.0

I have had a positive experience with Fireflies. It helps me keep track of my meetings, saves time on note-taking, and allows me to easily revisit important points and action items afterward.

Pros

What I liked most about Fireflies is the accurate transcripts it generates. It clearly captures conversations during meetings and makes it easy to review important details later without having to take manual notes.

Cons

What I liked least about Fireflies is that it does not record videos of the meetings. Having a video recording option would make it even more useful for reviewing presentations and visual discussions.

### "I missed one meeting with Fireflies and it made me realize I much I love it"

December 15, 2025

5.0

Great overall experience with Fireflies. It shows up to all my meetings and sends me an email with exactly what I need for my notes

Pros

It shows up to all my meetings and gives me an accurate recap and clear action items. It is also integrated with my CRM

Cons

Sometime the summary can be too long or it uses the wrong acronyms, can't hate too much as those things can be industry specific. I don't like it speaking up during my meetings in the chat section.

### "Best I've found so far"

November 1, 2025

4.0

Best ai recorder I've tried with awesome ai summaries and the ability to search transcripts with natural language

Pros

Captures video with discreet audio fallback via chrome plugin, ai summaries are really good, you can ask fred questions about specific calls which is a great time saver.

Cons

cost is a bit high with ai credits as an additional fee above subscription that defaults to auto-top up, chrome plugin sometimes fails to engage.

### "Best in Class Call Summaries"

December 25, 2025

5.0

I have tried Zoom's call summary and also Otter.ai - I find this service to be the best provider of accurate and actionable insights.

Pros

I love the ease of integration with CRMs and calendar systems. I was up and running in five minutes or less. Call summaries are much better than those provided by Zoom's built-in AI.

Cons

The only learning curve I am dealing with is the fact that I run three email addresses and get invited to meetings on Teams, Slack, Zoom and Google meet. Still learning how to get Firelflies to autojoin all meetings across all platforms.

### "Accurate transcriptions and effortless meeting documentation"

February 21, 2026

5.0

My overall experience with Fireflies has been very positive. I use it to record all meetings with clients, internal team discussions, and interviews, and it consistently performs at a high level. The transcription quality is accurate and reliable, which saves me significant time compared to manual note-taking. The automatic summaries are especially valuable — they clearly structure key points, decisions, and action items, making it easy to review conversations and share insights with colleagues. Overall, Fireflies has streamlined our communication workflow and improved documentation efficiency across projects.

Pros

With Fireflies, I record all meetings with clients/within the team, as well as interviews, and this transcription and summary feature is the best and most accurate.

Cons

I don't see any downsides yet, as the app has been running smoothly, responding quickly to every action, and providing exactly the features I need without crashes, glitches, or confusing interface issues. So far, the experience has been intuitive and efficient, and everything works as expected.

### "Best in class"

November 19, 2025

5.0

Experience has been great. It has made a huge difference to my user experience and therefore the experience that my clients receive from my business.

Pros

Easy of use. Invaluable for keeping track of my conversations and communications. Its also essential for summation.

Cons

There really isn't anything not to like. I guess the only thing might be that its hard to see where your total used storage space is. It would be good if that information was more available.

### "Highly recommended"

November 17, 2025

5.0

Very good experience for a couple of years. Pleased with accuracy and summaries. Good value and will stick with it because it continually improves.

Pros

Reliable, efficient software. Much better and more cost effective than the human equivalent. The ask Fred feature is very useful - probably more useful than the auto generated summaries.

Cons

Not always clear how you can change meeting summary settings. It doesn't always get proper names and industry terminology correct.

### "Fireflies review"

October 23, 2025

5.0

We just wanted to try it out at first, but now it is so handy, I don't know how I was having meetings without it before. It provides a summary, but it also gives a transcript, so we can read or even listen to what was actually discussed at any point in the future. And it automatically joins meetings, you don't even need to think about inviting it

Pros

I love getting summaries of the meetings and helpful suggestions of how to prepare before the meetings. Fireflies is very helpful

Cons

the cost increases if you add more team members, but it is to be expected. It is a great product overall.

### "Great tool for meeting transcription and productivity"

April 16, 2026

4.0

Overall, my experience with Fireflies has been positive, it's beating competitors, I especially like integration with ChatGPT

Pros

Fireflies is helpful for recording and transcribing meetings automatically. It saves a lot of time on note-taking and allows me to stay focused on the conversation. I also like the search functionality and how easy it is to revisit key moments or action items from past calls.

Cons

Sometimes the transcription is not 100% accurate, especially with accents or poor audio quality. Also, the interface can feel a bit cluttered, and it takes some time to find specific settings or features.

March 10, 2026

5.0

Seamless, dependable and scalable. I cannot describe what a timesaver and efficiency driver Fireflies has been with my business. As a consultant, this not only streamlines my work, but makes it better.

Pros

It does the job of an AI notetaker better than any other. Custom AI apps, great integration into Claude meaning you can chat to Claude and reference the conversations and use AI apps to gather specific insights into conversations.

Cons

Pricing is unclear when you bolt on AI credits and the like, not sure really what I'm getting or what credits are used for outside the AI apps

### "Pros and cons of fireflies "

December 13, 2025

4.0

9/10 for me… i subscribed since i already have many recordings with it. I hope it improves the meeting link even if not invited and the recording off the speaker output just like read.ai.

Pros

The promo was very enticing, i got 40% discount. I was a user for around 6 months on free plan and was convinced fireflies is very helpful. The summary is great and it can be shared to intended recipients.

Cons

It cannot record from the desktop Speaker. It can only record from the mic input. It’s kind of difficult to include a link of a meeting to attend if i only received a link, and not a formal invite.

### "Helps me a lot!"

October 29, 2025

5.0

Love it. I really enjoy it and has made my actions more visible and follow up on calls has become much easier.

Pros

How easy it is to use and the accuracy of everything said at the meetings. I can rely on it taking notes and fully concentrate on the meeting itself.

Cons

That it is always visible in the call as a member. It is fine to be visible, but should not take up a whole calling in.
