### "An Essential Tool for Productive Business Meetings"

October 1, 2025

5.0

My overall experience with Fireflies has been excellent. The platform is very easy to set up and use, the call quality is reliable, and the meeting summaries are accurate and well-structured, which saves me a lot of time in follow-ups. I find the value for money excellent, and the customer support team is always responsive whenever questions arise. Although it is more oriented toward business meetings, it still adapts well to my needs, and I can definitely see its potential for students and educators, too

Pros

What I liked most about Fireflies is how easy and intuitive it is to use. The call quality is excellent, and the meeting summaries are incredibly accurate, saving me a lot of time. I also appreciate the way the platform organizes and tracks data, making follow-up much easier. The value for money is outstanding.

Cons

What I liked least about Fireflies is that it seems to be mainly focused on business meetings. As a student who also attends online classes, I think it would be great if there were a version or plan more tailored to academic use. Features designed specifically for students and educators could make it even more versatile.

### "Reliable Note-Taking Helps Faithful Follow-Through"

January 21, 2026

5.0

i love Fireflies. I would always recommend it to any executive on the go with plenty of meetings to hop on too.

Pros

i can record offline conversations with ease and has the capacity to download the record via PDF faithfully and reliably with zero dilution.

Cons

the summarization sucks actually but I have ChatGPT and Gemini for it so it is not much of an issue.

### "Una herramienta muy valiosa"

November 3, 2025

5.0

A mi me cambió muchísimo y de forma muy positiva la dinámica del reporte de reuniones, permitiéndome tener un resumen completo, sencillo de leer, claro y muy preciso respecto de lo conversado en las reuniones

Pros

Realiza resúmenes muy precisos y completos, permitiendo elegir varios formatos y siempre los finaliza con un listado de acciones de cada participante

Cons

A veces ingresa un poco sobre la hora de la reunión. Por otro lado, es difícil compartir las notas de las reuniones o armar equipos

### "neWings loves Fireflies"

November 4, 2025

5.0

UI and UX is great. It's really easy to handle. Also it has a lot of features we didn't think of ourselves. If we had a good call with a lead, cliënt or colleague, Fireflies is able to turn this over in eductional documents.

Pros

It's also availiable in Dutch and has many features besides taking notes of conversations. For instance if we have internal meetings, all todo's we've talked about and decided will be put in Jira as issues.

Cons

Though the notes in Dutch are better then most other competitors, it's not always 100% accurate. Hopefully they will keep improving this.

### "Founder & CEO"

December 12, 2025

5.0

Overall, my experience with Fireflies has been excellent. It has become an essential tool in our operations, improving meeting productivity, enabling clear follow-ups, and saving valuable time for our team. The platform is reliable, intuitive, and consistently evolving with helpful updates. I would highly recommend it to any organization looking to enhance collaboration and documentation.

Pros

I appreciated the high level of accuracy in the transcriptions, the clarity of the summaries, and how quickly the platform processes each meeting. Its ability to capture key action items and decisions has helped streamline our workflows significantly.

Cons

Occasionally, the platform mislabels speakers or requires minor manual adjustments in highly technical conversations. However, these situations are infrequent and easy to correct within the interface.

### "Is this a gift from God."

December 13, 2025

5.0

So far, it has been excellent, and whilst I have been using it for over 12 months, there is still a lot more I could be doing.

Pros

This has been a game-changer. Recording all meetings and having summaries and actions has saved hours and enabled me to be so much more efficient. The fact that customer meetings are added to my Zoho CRM automatically is a real bonus.

Cons

Zoho Meetings is not supported, which is a bit of an issue, although most meetings are on Teams. I do not always find what I am looking for and can take a bit of time, but more likely me.

### "Nothing to complain ;-)"

December 17, 2025

5.0

Using Fireflies is just as expected an when it isn't their support is quick and sufficient. Overall a good experience!

Pros

The transcripts are accurate in both English and my native language Dutch. I have used it for language like Czech successful too. The summaries are just convenient.

Cons

I would be great to integrate it more into zoom for live transcripts, but I haven't been able to figure this out. Another issue is that the integration with Zapier is way more advance as with Makecom or Pabbly.

### "Five stars. If you want to make your conversations immediately actionable."

April 9, 2026

5.0

It's been really great. I enjoy it quite a bit. Get out of a meeting. You have your tasks; you can create proposals; you can come back and reference it a week later; you can zap it, automate it; it's great.

Pros

I just signed up about a month ago. I really prefer this over Zoom because Zoom automatically does a meeting summary, and I really prefer to have the full transcript and JSON and the option to do a meeting summary.

Cons

I'm a little confused by two apps. Now I'm getting two duplicates of my meetings. I turn on the cool new app, and it's also inviting Fred. I get duplicates.

### "Great tool for recruiters!"

February 5, 2026

5.0

Pros

Fireflies is an incredible tool for me as a recruiter! It's been SUCH a big help having it transcribe meeting notes, and provide a detailed summary, directly within the platform so that I can keep track of everything I need.

Cons

I can't think of any! The tool is very easy to use and easy to sync up with my Google account so that recordings can automatically start and I have records of all notes that I need post-interviews with candidates or important calls with teams.

### "Advancing really well"

September 25, 2025

5.0

Pros

In the context of notetakers currently, Fireflies is my favourite. Accuracy is good and summary tends to be on point. What is particularly good is the chrome extension for use with google-meet that stops having a place on the screen being taken up by a bot.

Cons

the extension only works in google meet. in person meetings are still not where they need to be for this to taken up fully across my business.

### "a great efficiency tool for note taking and "

April 23, 2026

5.0

overall a good experience. Notes cannot be fully relied on if an international speaker is part of the conversation

Pros

easy to learn. Efficient note taking creating great efficiencies. Pre-meeting reminders of past topics to reconsider is very useful as well.

Cons

misidentification of speakers when connecting into a conference room, which makes follow up and notes accuracy somewhat difficult. the system is often challenged by international accent which leads to questionable notes

### "Fireflies AI from a sales reps perspective"

April 26, 2026

4.0

Very good. Its becoming an essential part of my workflow. I find that I am more engaged in client calls when I don't have to take notes and Fireflies does a much better job than I.

Pros

Works seamlessly with online meetings and I also use it to record my initial phone conversations with clients. I simply use a noise cancelling speakerphone and good quality microphone. The AI summaries are excatly what I need and I use them frequently to refresh my memory of prior conversations. I also like the live transcription which allows me to go back and clarify something that was said prior

Cons

They dont give enough AI credits for the membership levels. Its a bit confusing to use at the beginng but once you are up and running its great. They have a lot of tutorials to help with the learning curve

### "Great Tool! "

February 10, 2026

5.0

I was in need of a transcription tool, and Fireflies connected it to G Suite out of the gate. That has made things much easier.

Pros

The fact that I no longer have to write down the MoM for every meeting is a game-changer, to say the least.

Cons

No matter if I deleted the meeting in the notepad, I was not able to get past a prompt that said I had used all of the minutes.

Overall, the experience has always been positive, but once the AI features hit, it became much more valuable for me!

Pros

Fireflies AI features have been a huge game-changer for me. As someone who is on calls for most of the day, this saves me so much time!

Cons

No complaints here. Have had an overall great experience since we initially onboarded and continue to do so.

### "Firefly: An Essential Tool in my Toolkit "

February 11, 2026

5.0

I consider Firefly an essential tool in my toolkit for both work and personal life. It helps me reference old conversations and summarize the important information (with a little prompting). One of my favourite parts of Firefly is that I can have genuine conversations without worrying about taking notes.

Pros

The positives are the ease of use and connectivity on any platform. The biggest benefit for me is that ability to chat with the AI assistant to really narrow down on the key information I need to consider as I end up talking to a lot of departments and the conversation is not always pertinent to my department.

Cons

I think the summary system is a bit underdeveloped; what I mean is that Firefly summarizes the entire meeting for me. However, there are many parts of the meetings that are not relevant to my tasks, and while a little background doesn't hurt, it sometimes prioritizes the fluff and omits the important discussion for my department. That said, the easy fix is to use the AI assistant built into Firefly and ask it to extract the relevant information.

### "Exceeded my expectations "

December 5, 2025

5.0

The ability to pickup on themes - catch trends - key topics and follow along through a project life. The surprising benefit is it’s ability to give a Birds Eye perspective of all aspects combined and identify overall themes and insights

Pros

If you do a lot of online meetings they have a 30% off deal now. It’s seriously become a game changer in my life for business It also allows you to record phone calls and connect them to projects Then an added bonus is uploading videos or podcasts and pulling out key information related to personal interest as well as what it deems important or at least not to over look

Cons

The only improvement I would wish for is the ability to just upload links vs files and the ability to record live webinars we attend

### "Doing all the boring parts about meetings for you"

March 5, 2026

5.0

We don't need a human notetaker any more. I can easily extract and download recorded data for analysis, brainstorming, creating content, developing project ideas. A great timesaver. Thank you, Fireflies :)

Pros

Reliable, joins automatically both Zoom and Teams meetings, delivers meeting summaries to participants and team automatically, accurate Croatian transcripts, availability of audio, video, transcripts and summaries. I even use it for Speaking Cambridge CAE practice exams to process and deliver reports for students. And it's very intuitive. I haven't even explored what it can do.

Cons

A nuisance - although global setup is Croatian meetings, it occassionally delivers reports in English

### "Fireflies - Loaded with helpful features"

April 15, 2026

5.0

Fireflies has been a lifesaver for me in terms of organization and scheduling my tasks and workflows.

Pros

Fireflies is vastly superior to my phone's native voice recording software. Even in the free tier, differentiating between speakers saves me so much time when processing my meeting notes.

Cons

One challenge to fireflies is the AI generated summary. 90% of the time it is accurate and organized, but there have been a few times where it has lumped some things in with other parts of the conversation that were incorrect. My primary example of this: a peer shared a personal example of an event with me as an illustration for the conversation we were having about similar events that I was hosting. The Fireflies summary assumed the example was something that happened under my leadership; the transcript didn't really give room for that.

Switched from

[Google Voice](https://www.capterra.com/p/210592/Voice/)

I didn't like that the transcripts were just giant blocks of text, and the transcription software was often quite wrong.

Overall, Fireflies has been a very positive and time-saving tool. It simplifies meeting documentation through reliable recordings, searchable transcripts, and clear AI-generated summaries. While there are minor limitations in transcription accuracy and customization, its ease of use and productivity gains outweigh the drawbacks, making it a valuable support for meetings and collaboration.

Pros

Clear AI summaries, easy meeting search, and seamless integrations that save time effortlessly day..

Cons

Occasional transcription inaccuracies and limited customization in summaries for different meeting needs.

### "Fireflies is invaluable if you need to actively listen and be engaged in a meeting"

January 23, 2026

4.0

Overall, I am happy with the app for the cost and what it provides. It has been invaluable in allowing me to listen actively and be more engaged in my meetings, rather than taking notes.

Pros

Fireflies is easy to use from the start. I have it available on both my computer and phone and can start recording quickly as I step into a meeting. It summarizes and provides action items by individual, which is very helpful. I also receive a prep email an hour before any recurring meeting that Fireflies is invited to, with a recap of the previous meeting and discussion points for the upcoming meeting.

Cons

If using the phone app, you have to leave the app open and not allow your screen to lock so the recording gets uploaded. Upload time on the phone app takes longer than I prefer. Sometimes the names get jumbled or are incorrect on the transcript. This is an easy edit and fix, but something to look out for depending on your need for accuracy and professionalism.

### "Highly recommend if you have ADD. This system is a lifesaver!"

October 1, 2025

5.0

I don't have task falling through the cracks because I forgot a detail in a meeting. The result is not missing sales which more than pays for the service. I wouldn't go without the system.

Pros

The system is easy to set up and use. I also use the Android app and record all of my in person meetings. I never miss a detail and the summaries are very helpful. I highly recommend them to anyone.

Cons

I find it difficult to understand how to use the AI app credits. I still think it provides so much help without the AI apps you can easily use it without them. I plan to incorporate them more with my CRM.
