Compared to what I have worked with before, BoardPro has not only helped to keep meetings organized, but has also sent reminders weeks in advance of when the meeting is, who will attend and if any changes are made to the scripts. This has made my experience in a school board favorable. Pros The ease of use. Very easy to display and communicate idea's to a board. Somewhere where we can efficiently organize different sections of our discussions so that we can follow a strict order and timeline. Timeline is key in a school board setting to fit around other commitments Cons Sometimes if I left the meeting pack mid meeting to write an email/check another script, I would find that I would get redirected midway through and would have to find my way back to the page. Review Source Chief Executive Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "BoardPro is the only tool you need!" September 22, 2026 5.0 It's a great platform to manage everything you need as a CEO. It's simple and intuitive to use. Being able to set your agenda in separate sections around strategy, noting, approvals etc. makes it useful for Directors to understand where they need to spend their time. Pros BoardPro is easy to use, hold all of your key documents in one place. It makes it easy to induct new Directors, who can choose what documents they would like to read, knowing that the documents are always there. The cost of BoardPro is good value for money for this sort of tool Cons Don't accept excel files, our Risk Register is on excel and becomes too small once converted to a pdf. Review Source Chair Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "Cost effective Board portal plus a value adding community" September 18, 2026 5.0 BoardPro is a cost effective Board portal and in addition the community is a useful source of professional development support Pros BoardPro is not only software but it is also a community. The webinars are especially helpful. I've down loaded a number of their templates for use with the Boards that I work with. Cons Looking forward to being able to work off line on my Mac. Most of my Board preparation is in my home office but it would be nice to be able to swap between offline and online Review Source Principal Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "BoardPro - Easy As" July 20, 2026 5.0 Easy to use and seamless. All our board members have jumped in and been able to use BoardPro without difficulty, even our non-techie board members. Pros BoardPro has streamlined our meeting organisation process by making it easier for board members to navigate the meeting agenda and documents. As the organiser of the agenda, it has made my job much easier. Cons Honestly, I cannot think of cons as the integration into our meeting process was simple and went without any issues. Review Source Finance Manager Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "Indispensable tool" June 28, 2026 5.0 My overall experience with BoardPro has been absolutely exceptional, and I truly love everything about it. It completely transformed how we manage our board meetings, agendas, and other group meetings. The intuitive interface makes compiling board packs incredibly fast, saving us hours of manual administration before every session. It keeps all of our documents secure and highly organised in one central hub, allowing members to access updates and review materials effortlessly from anywhere. The automated reminders and action-item tracking ensure nothing ever slips through the cracks. Pros BoardPro is easy to use on a centralised platform and is paperless. It sets agendas, creates board packs, votes, takes minutes in real time, assigns & sends reminders of actions, and stores files. People who are assigned to an action can update their action as they progress before the meeting. Cons I searched the Play Store app, and there is still no Android phone app available for BoardPro that I can use on the go when I don’t have access to my laptop or tablet. Review Source President Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Excellent Service from BoardPro" June 26, 2026 5.0 One word, excellent. I am so glad we made the leap into a board software and BoardPro has made it extremely easy. Pros BoardPro has been excellent for us automating our board minutes. Creating them directly from the agenda makes the process so easy. The customer support at BoardPro has been too-notch and I have been really impressed. The value you get with BoardPro for the money spent is extremely valuable. Cons To be honest, I don’t have anything I don’t like about BoardPro. I would recommend a more robust calendar view of board meeting events, and the ability to create other board related events (not board meetings) that can be viewed and filtered on the same calendar view. This way board members can see all events and board related activities that are important for them doing their job governing the body of their organization.

Review Source Chair and Director Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Excellent platform for directors" June 23, 2026 4.0 Excellent. I have used Uber providers that often add high levelled of security but have limited functionality. Pros Simplicity. Uncomplicated platform that’s easy to use without restriction. Well organised folders with the ability to limit access. Cons Unsure of security rating. App functionality does have some limitations and could be better designed. Review Source Grants Coordinator Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "Thanks for giving us BoardPro :)" June 2, 2026 5.0 It can only be a good one, really excellent system and having run numerous boards in the past using just word and excel, I cannot believe how much time was wasted and doubling up work with no BoardPro in our lives. Painstakingly slow, sometimes very hard to collate all information and really not easy to convene, I used to dread some of these meetings. Not any more, BoardPro kinda does it all... except speak!! Pros I really like how easy it is to use and how intuitively it supports a relatively non-technical user to produce agenda, complete minutes and process all committee requirements. When I've needed to reach out for help, support at BoardPro has been almost immediate and very effective with useful step-by-step instructions to complete the task at hand. Cons I don't think there is anything I don't like, I've now used BoardPro for two totally different organisations and it is awesome, despite their differences. Initially, there is a bit to get used to and sometimes feels like I'm doubling up in making notes but there have been some minor tweaks and I'm getting better at noting too :) Review Source Director Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "Board Papers with easy access " April 9, 2026 5.0 Great way to receive and handle board papers - like having papers plus all editing and notes digitally Pros Easy to use. Bookmarks work. You can highlight points AND make comments. You can go backwards easily- and jump to bookmy Cons Going backwards is a challenge until familiarity builds through use. Magnification can be a little clumsy. Review Source Board Member Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Happy and Content User" March 31, 2026 5.0 Great wouldn't be without it now. This product is flexible and user friendly. Easy to access documents and plenty of great tools to assist me. Pros I enjoy working in BoardPro - it is easy to use and i have a single place to work from. It has all the functionality i need for the type of work and boards that i am involved with. Cons Nothing - i am a basic user and it has all the necessary bits and pieces that i need. Easy to use and intuitive. Review Source Chair Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "On par with BoardPro" March 18, 2026 5.0 Building confidence and trust in navigating the platform, over time. Plenty to discover yet. Always interested to discover more of its features Pros We adopted the NFP version in 2025, which was step up from the old school paper shuffle. It has made for a simpler, more efficient flow of information and meeting management. Cons Nothing specifically. Adoption by the whole board has gone relatively well, despite the typical demographic wariness regarding 'technology'. Review Source Chief Executive Chair Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Board Pro Says It All" December 8, 2025 5.0 Very satisfactory - never had a problem with access for multiple entities either as a Governor/Director/Trustee or CEO Pros Secure log in; quick access to folders; timeline approach and record of meetings; not subject to continuous upgrades in comparison to other Governance platforms; ability to store documents in a variety of folders Cons Until I sorted my various entity access protocols i.e. different email addresses for each of my Directorships and Operational roles I had to rely on admin staff providing links to the meeting papers. That is sorted now and I am able to log in directly to each organisation. Switched from [Stellar](https://www.capterra.com/p/10017670/Stellar/) Toom many issues with library function not being available Review Source Head of Faculty- Technology Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Interface experience" December 12, 2024 3.0 Pros good interface, easy to follow up on actions Cons Bit slower sometimes, also suggest attractive design Review Source CFO Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Easy to Learn" December 10, 2025 5.0 I found it very easy to learn and we now have a very smooth Board pack compilation process. The minute taking process is also very good, easy to produce and then easy to confirm in the next meeting pack. Pros Easy to use, easy to load up papers and share information with Board members. Well structured to identify decisions, noting, etc and easy to attach papers. Cons Having to move between agenda and board pack in the checking phase. When I've finished a draft version of the pack being able to download and review the entire pack is not entirely intuitive. Switched from [Diligent Boards](https://www.capterra.com/p/149069/Diligent-Boards/) Diligent was expensive and we needed to find a more cost effective solution. Review Source Chair Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Intuitive cloud-based Board portal solution" October 6, 2025 5.0 I have found it very intuitive to use. I also find the built in help topics generally helpful. When I have needed further guidance, I have been able to submit my question and get personalised responses. Pros It is easy to create agendas and upload documents. I also really like the flying minute function and ability to create Board only folders. Cons The search function is generally good - it searches within document titles for the whole site, or for keywords within a particular board pack. However I would also love the master search function to search for keywords within documents. Switched from [Microsoft SharePoint](https://www.capterra.com/p/1167/SharePoint/) Sharepoint required too much document management and creation by the company secretary Review Source Librarian Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "BoarPro - New Zealand" May 22, 2025 5.0 Smooth, easy to use, superb quality and value for money. Excellent platform and software, no issues ever whatsoever, reliable, delivers every time. Pros Excellent platform for managing Board meetings, governance comms and confidential files. It has made my work as a LIANZA Board member much more easier, faster and efficient and BoardPro kept me connected and up to date with all comms and my fellow colleagues. Cons Superb quality of file sharing and editable functionalities, it never failed to provide timely and essentials updates and access to board data and information. Switched from [Google Workspace](https://www.capterra.com/p/247901/Google-Workspace/) Team grew in size, larger group of Board members to manage, increased volume of data and reports, need for efficiency. Review Source Executive Assistant Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "Very good product but would love to see it improve" December 2, 2024 4.0 Overall, the experience has been positive. The ease of setup and the user-friendly nature make it a good product. However, I would like to see some enhancements, such as the ability to write and change reports attached to agendas without having to reload them. Pros Ease of use, clean dashboard, offers of mini training sessions, ease of customer service Cons The inability to amend Word documents, like in Sharepoint, and having to reload changed versions. This is something Harbour Software, with their DocAssembler product, offers. Also, I would like to use it more widely, but the cost of each separate committee is prohibitive for a not-for-profit.

Pros It is efficient and ensure all members to a meeting are informed on changes in the agenda and the meeting pack by a simple click of the publish button. Cons There is nothing that I don't like. The platform is great. Maybe you can add a video conferencing software like MS Teams to be able to join remotely or record a meeting. Review Source Controller Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Board Pro keeps your board organized!" July 18, 2025 5.0 The Flying Minute feature has been especially valuable to us in documenting actions taken by the board in between meetings. Minutes can be taken during the meeting directly in Board Pro, then cleaned up later, with draft minutes available for review and comment. All supporting documents are archived and available for review at any time. It is easy to update documents when necessary, and board members will know when a document has changed since the last time they reviewed the board pack. Pros Board Pro allows the management team and officers to properly organize the agenda of each meeting, including supporting documentation, prior to the meeting. The board members can go through the agenda and documents during the meeting on their laptops, saving lots of paper! Actions are clearly documented and archived. Cons It is not free (but the cost is reasonable). There is a little bit of a learning curve for each new secretary and agenda-writer but it is not steep. Review Source Trustee Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Amazing features, easy to use" October 6, 2025 5.0 Very good so far. It has been really helpful for helping me plan agendas, and it has good reminder functionality. Pros Easy and convenient to use with great features. For example I have found the flying minutes very helpful. Cons With Boardpro being technical platform, not everyone has the same level of technical expertise and so access has sometimes been challenging. While this is not necessarily a con of BoardPro, this has been my experience. Review Source Board Member Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Love the free training webinars" October 13, 2025 4.0 Overall, BoardPro delivers a good experience—easy to use, professional, and ideal for nonprofits. It streamlines board processes, improves meeting efficiency, and supports good governance with tools that are both practical and accessible. Pros BoardPro offers exceptional value for money, is easy to use, and provides great free training webinars—making it an ideal solution for charities. Cons Searching for old documents or details can be tricky—BoardPro’s search isn’t always intuitive. It’s very hard to find old minutes, based on word topic search etc Review Source Director Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "BoardPro, a must for all meetings" August 29, 2025 5.0 The use of BoardPro allows for our Board of Directors meetings to run efficiently. It is very professional in it's appearance and all features are very easy to navigate. Pros Very professional in appearance. All documents well presented and easily accessed. Ease of use- especially when dealing with multiple documents. Great tool bar allowing for edits ,highlights and notes to be easily added. Cons I have no complaints regarding this product. Our meetings run more efficiently and effectively using BoardPro. Review Source Board member Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "Boardpro Very good" August 1, 2025 4.0 Pros Easily accessable, efficient in working online and ensuring board meetings and board packs are reminded of. Cons Cant always find all of the documents, lots of small different links that aren't easily found because they aren't labelled well. Review Source Office Manager, Principals PA Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "BoardPro Magic" June 20, 2025 5.0 BoardPro has been a godsend, as a new Board Secretary; I couldn't live without it. It has streamlined the process and reduced administrative tasks. Pros So easy to use, makes agendas and minutes easy and quick to complete, while saving time and money on printing. Cons It would be good to be able to send reminders about the meetings to members. In-committee minutes would be a great feature. Review Source Executive Manager Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Really happy we made the move to BoardPro" September 22, 2025 5.0 It has been a huge time saver and documents are safe now that we don't require paper reports anymore. Pros It is interactive, minutes are taken in real time and it is very easy to use. NO paper is huge plus. Cons No capacity for In Committee items yet, but they are working on it. The access levels seem a bit broad, these could be more defined to limit access. Review Source Similar Products Featured
