what is uMeet?
uMeet is a group orientated online support system. That means its like a traditional face to face support group, but online. And like a traditional group, your online group has a regular place to meet, ie. your own web address, just like a webpage, allowing you to hold scheduled real-time group support meetings.
We built uMeet over years of working with community and voluntary support organisations to emulate important aspects of face-to-face support, while including many advantages of online support.
who is uMeet for?
uMeet is ideal for organisations and individuals who are already providing face-to-face support groups and wish to have a complimentary online service.
It is also perfect for those who would like to provide support group services, but perhaps have a budget limited to trying an online option first.
uMeet is ideal for organisations wishing to extend their user-base, reduce costs, maximise accessibility or cater for their service users who are geographical dispersed.
