### "Great for Nonprofits"

April 6, 2020

5.0

Overall, we have loved BoardSpot and I have adopted it as the board management software that I use for several of the boards that I sit on.

Pros

I love using BoardSpot to simplify the management of documents related to board business. Our team is small and finding an affordable yet comprehensive platform has made managing the board of directors much easier.

Cons

As of right now, we have not found anything we do not like. We have requested that the platform add a connection to Slack or provide an in-house discussion platform.

Alternatives considered

Reason for choosing BoardSpot

The simplicity of use combined with the pricing was the selling point for me. There is no more affordable platform with similar usability.

### "Great platform and phenomenal customer service. "

December 31, 2023

4.0

The best "feature" BoardSpot has is their customer service team. They are amazing. Very responsive, really listen to our feedback, and always offer solutions to any issue that arises. We are excited about this new relationship!

Pros

BoardSpot is easy to set up and easy to use. Most all functions are very self explanatory. It's features are competitive with many much higher priced options.

Cons

The portal seems a bit new so I think some features that may be useful are still in the works or coming very soon.

### "Boardspot helps our nonprofit function well"

November 17, 2022

4.0

Pros

Easy enough to use that everyone can access and view calendar, meeting minutes, etc

Cons

Sometimes we dont get all notifications, it is pricey for the function

July 26, 2023

We appreciate knowing about the notifications. We have the ability to check on the email delivery for each message sent. In your portal you can submit a chat and we would be happy to troubleshoot this with you. Glad you like the other portal features!

### "Virtual meetings and closing presentations."

January 10, 2025

4.0

The implementation of security projects needs to be supported by final documents that present conclusive results for evaluation by the company's board of directors. Having the ability to hold quality virtual meetings between technicians, technologists, engineers and board members is very important to draw the general lines. Presenting an efficient and secure strategy based on the final results is a very important part of my job and BoardSpot is a tool that makes this very easy for me.

Pros

I find it to be an extremely useful tool for presentations and creating executive meetings because it allows me to create customized meeting rooms with company branding, upload slides, explanatory videos and detailed documents to support the presentation. It offers real-time collaboration, annotation, participant polling, and file sharing.

Cons

Despite the variety of features BoardSpot offers, it may lack some customization add-ons.

### "Great tools to keep the Board informed"

March 20, 2024

5.0

So far so good! All my expectations have been met and the upgrades have been really good. Looking forward to seeing more optionalities.

Pros

it keeps my board in the know and current with all documents. I have one upload and they can come look at the documents or past minutes/agendas anytime.

Cons

Would be nice to have a collaboration site. This would enable the board to add ideas and chat about certain topics.

November 25, 2023

5.0

Our board has used it for just over 2 yrs now; what a relief to have everything current and past stored in one location and easy to find.

Pros

Someone else created the perfect program for {perhaps} inexperienced and/or volunteer boards that makes it easy for everyone to use.

Cons

I do not have any "dislikes" about BoardSpot. I appreciate this tool that is handy for a volunteer board member.

### "Review of Boardspot"

October 7, 2023

5.0

Pros

Having everything (board bios, documents, meeting/event calendars and zoom links, etc.) available in one place takes much of the nuisance out of being a trustee

Cons

I can't think of anything I'd add at this point.

Our mission is to help nonprofit boards focus on impact rather than administrative tasks. Happy to hear we are doing that for you!

November 17, 2023

5.0

Pros

Our nonprofit board is better able to focus on our work, organize documents, and coordinate meetings.

Cons

It's excellent for our nonprofit board; I only wish our church (with a much smaller budget) could afford to use it.

February 16, 2023

Pretty non-invasive sales. The product did the trick.

Pros

The board members can access it, and I have octogenarians who are not tech savvy.

Cons

Not much to say here but it is a great solution

### "From a User's POV"

April 17, 2023

5.0

As a relatively new Trustee to this institution, it is so efficient for whatever you may need for a current meeting as well as documents that have been created in the past that may be referred to by others.

Pros

I love that all docs, agendas, minutes and calendars are easily accessible. Also, that everyone's contact information is easily available. Having everything in one place that it easy to navigate makes pre meeting preparation a breeze. No more searching through tons of emails to acquire all of the docs needed.

Cons

Great product. Nothing to complain about...

July 24, 2023

Thank you, Janet, for sharing from your Trustee point of view. You are who we made this portal for! And I am delighted that we can help make your service easier and more efficient, so you can focus on getting things done - not searching your inbox!

The ease of Board of Director files and meetings with everything in one simple place

### "Finally!"

November 16, 2023

5.0

Pros

An easy-to-use, user-friendly platform to keep track of all important board information -- members, contacts, committees, documents -- in a way that is simple and appropriately accessible for everyone. I love this tool and we've only just begun to use it. It has already saved me so much time. Plus, the customer service -- sales, onboarding, and responsiveness to questions -- has been outstanding.

Cons

The only down side I had initially -- the lack of an integrated Zoom link -- has been addressed since we joined. So far, I don't have anything I don't like!

Very useful.

Pros

Access to calendar and attendance signup.

Cons

After using all of the functions of this program I am not certain that I was able to logout of the web sight due to the lack of directions for doing so.

We are able to post important documents before meetings, so that board members can review and be prepared to take up a business discussion. Our meetings are much more productive and efficient.

### "A Great Solution for Smaller Organizations"

July 7, 2023

5.0

We hope that our use of BoardSpot allows us to provide lighter board meeting packages by putting more cyclical elements on the porta.

Pros

We like that it is fairly intuitive. It was easy to set up, and the price is reasonable for a smaller nonprofit organization such as ours.

Cons

I wish it would go right to the "Board of Directors" page when one logs in.

Thanks, Dennis! Our meeting packets and document storage are intended to provide exactly that, as well as quick and easy meeting setup, meeting invitations, and agenda/meeting packet creation. So glad you are finding value in your portal!
