BoardSpot Reviews

The BoardSpot platform has made it easier to participate in my role as a board member. The meeting information is more organized and accessible, and we have access to everything in one convient location. We have board members with a wide variety of techincal expertise, and it was easy for everyone to adopt it. I look foward to using BoardSpot as we continue our work.

There is nothing I dislike about BoardSpot at this time.

Meeting organization

Document storage

Ability for boardmembers to aggregrate thoughts, documents, vote, manage calendars and declutter your inbox.

Would like additional features to make it more interactive and part of BOD daily workflow.

Decluttering my inbox and keeping our board organized by centralizing info and communication.

UX is easy to use and understand. Love the design and appreciate the ease overall. It has been really helpful in keeping myself organized engaging with a huge board of a huge non-profit!

Nothing yet - overall I think its been wonderful and easy to use. It would be cool to have a feature to chat within committees or like socially connect with others but I think its good so far and serves its purpose.

Coordinating the board overall and have a seamless platform to help with training, alignment, and coordination! It is overall great - I feel like I know where to go and what to do.

As a busy executive, I thought that BoardSpot was extremely easy and straightforward to use. In fact, it includes a lot of features that boards use — such as voting, attendance, and quorum tracking. The integration with calendar apps is impressive, as users can respond with their own calendar apps (Attending vs Not Attending) and the web app tracks and displays these very easily. Bios, profiles, and photos of boardmembers and staff is easy to access. The web app itself is light and loads fast in Safari.

There's not much to dislike. It's very easy and quick to use. I would selfishly like to see if BoardSpot has a solution for corporate boards! Additionally, if there were a way to have thumbnail previews of files — such as PDF uploads — so we can easily view what's on the front page. Finally, would like to see a way for boardmembers to synchronize with their own cloud drives (like OneDrive) and notetaking apps (like Evernote), plus integration with virtual meeting transcripts.

This website organizes and synchronizes calendar/scheduling, boardmember attendance, boardmember voting, and files, all in one easy-to-use easy-to-onboard hub that's much better than e-mails and tracking cloud links!

Full visibility to all agendas and documents and calendars of Board and Committees.

The site is slow - it takes a long time after clicking.

We need the Board to have a resource that was universally accessible and easy to use.

Easy to use; accessiblity; support for attendance and quorum tracking

I would love to be able to take notes or record meetings within the portal. also emailing individuals woudl be useful

transparency and organizing many committees

I love the way that the agendas and documents are uploaded and ready to use.

I have not found anything to dislike about it.

Having to search different emails from committee chairs to download reports; having to look on different dates to find agendas or minutes. BoardSpot has it all in one place.

I love more than one thing - so, hard to say "best" - I like seeing photo images of my board colleagues, being able to see other committees' materials, and knowing when my next committee meeting is. The layout is so accessible, thank you.

If I didn't have all my passwords already saved in my computer, I'd be frustrated about logging in every time, but I appreciate the security.

Universal access and visibility into board-goings on by board and staff, as relevant.

BoardSpot is intuitive and easy to use so all members of our team can be as involved as they want to be and have access to all the resources they need.

So far it's worked great for us and I don't have something to add for a dislike.

We previously didn't have a great way to keep our board updated and plan for meetings, keep minutes, etc. and with BoardSpot all that's taken care of.

BoardSpot is a big upgrade from using something like Google Drive to organize board materials. Simple enough that it is accesible to less-savvy board members, and checks the box on all the key things. Most board portal platforms are enterprise-priced, and BoardSpot has offerings for smaller boards that can't spend thousands on software. We very much appreciate that.

It's hard to complain about anything -- the value to price ratio is very high. The platform speed is a touch slow at times and it would be useful to have online voting / polling features outside of the meeting functionality, but those are nipping at the fringes. We are very happy with what we get and I know of no alterntive we could have used at this price point.

Ease of meeting management, new board member on-boarding, document sharing, committee documentation, and more. Allow board members clear single resource for key questions.
