Great value governance and Board management solution

Perfect for the small-medium not for profit board.

Pros

Intuitive. Simple. Easy to use. And probably more importantly saves board members (who are all voluntary) time and effort. This is why we choose BoardPro. Everything in one place. Everyone on the same page.

Cons

There are a couple of features I’d love to see implemented, and the great thing is that BoardPro has been super responsive to incorporating this feedback.

Easy to use and streamlines processes

We have greatly reduced the time spent assembling meeting packs, and allowed better transferability across the team where one person understood the complex manual process previously. Correcting minor errors is now much simpler, and the automatic reminders for actions increase the likelihood of actions being completed on time.

Pros

It is easy to set up, finesse and publish meeting packs, with the whole secretariat able to work collaboratively on this process. Updates are simple to make even after the pack is published, and users can choose whether to view and mark up online or print.

Cons

We were disappointed that meeting invitations aren't yet fully integrated with Outlook. The extra step required for users to click on the .ics attachment, and the lack of visibility of nuanced responses (e.g. messages included in responses, and tentative responses) meant we have had to continue setting up meeting appointments manually, rather than managing these from BoardPro.

Usability of Boardpro

I am still on trail

Pros

It is Easy to use and Its user friendly

Cons

It needs good internet connectivity and power

Intuitive affordable and brilliant Board management platform

I love BoardPro and highly recommend it to others looking for an easy to use, affordable, and robust Board platform. The few times I've needed help, the customer service team is the best I've ever worked with...not just for Board platforms either.

Pros

I love BoardPro! It's so nice to have a centralised place for our Board to access their agendas, board papers, calendar appointments, links for digital meetings, interest register, etc. As the Board secretary I found it easy to navigate and figure out on my own (although their customer service is the best I've ever received for any online platform I've used...not just in the board platform space either!). Taking minutes is easy, recording decisions and assigning actions is a breeze - and if I make a mistake, the roll back minutes feature is brilliant as I can roll back to a previous save point. We looked at several other Board platform options and the price point is very affordable in comparison. We've now expanded to include some of our sub-committees and it's a great feature to have access to.

Cons

The only branding item our comms team has asked for is to be able to upload our brand font so that PDFs that are exported are in our font - but that's not a huge priority for us. The functionality for the Board and myself (Board secretary) is so impressive.
