What do you like best about Board Intelligence?

Generally using BI is easy to learn for beginners.

Building a pack is quite straightforward.

Quick customer support responses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Board Intelligence?

The ‘shelf’ system can become quite cumbersome with longstanding Boards.

Inability to edit a document within the system (and having to republish the entire book when making any change – including renaming a book).

The stock templates are quite ugly and we spend a lot of time adding our own separator / divider pages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Board Intelligence?

The papers are filed logically and displayed simply which makes them very easy to access. Access from the agenda to the relevant papers makes moving around the papers quick and the annotation and bookmark function helps too. Customer support is brilliant. Being able to access the papers off line once downloaded is very helpful when travelling, especially by plane. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Board Intelligence?

Once a sticky note has been placed it can't be moved - even a tiny bit. Not being able to open more that one 'book' at a time Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Board Intelligence solving and how is that benefiting you?

Board Intelligence makes it very easy to see both current and past papers with all the comments; navigation is very straight forward. Also general info about the company and glossary and so on is displayed too. It looks just like a bookcase which I like. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Board Intelligence?

Some of the best things about using Board Intelligence is the ease of use, customer support and features available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Board Intelligence?

We had an issue with the scroll function being changed but this was resolved and we have had no other issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Board Intelligence solving and how is that benefiting you?

Board Intelligence makes it easy to provide the papers to the Board members and attendees and maintain the packs for future reference. This is much more secure way to distribute papers and maintain the records. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Michael McPherson of Board Intelligence

Thank you for taking the time to review. It's great to hear your positive comments on our platforms' ease of use and features, which have improved the security and distribution processes around your board packs.

What do you like best about Board Intelligence?

As Clerk to Governors/Company Secretary I have to collate the papers for 6 committees meeting 18 times in total every year. The workload and printing costs before adopting Board Intelligence were simply unbelievable. I cannot even imagine how I coped. Board Intelligence allows me to put together a meeting pack in minutes, distribute at the click of a button and update or review at will. I know my Governors really value the ability to follow what is going on during the meeting, knowing exactly what page is being discussed and to have annotated and shared their thoughts directly on the page. The true value really came to the fore during the pandemic when all meetings were virtual for over a year. We would never have managed with an analogue system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Board Intelligence?

The only real downside is the temptation to provide too much information as it is so easy to include papers. Very often I have to question whether papers being provided really add to the topic or are just useful background. I have got better at culling but the temptation is always there Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Board Intelligence solving and how is that benefiting you?

The ability to keep access to previous Committee papers on the Bookshelves, and therefore to quickly refer back to decisions from all the committees whatever meeting you are in is priceless and has improved the efficiency of the Governing Body immensely. The chairing of meetings, and particularly time mangement, have improved massively. It is now very rare for a meeting to overrun which is good for both attendance and morale! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Michael McPherson of Board Intelligence

Hi Tony,

Thank you for your feedback on Board Intelligence. We're delighted to hear how our platform has transformed your role and the benefits it has brought to your organisation.

As you mentioned, it can be tempting to include too much information; we encourage you to explore our resources page or sign up for one of our upcoming client workshops.

Thank you for your continued support.

Best wishes,

The BI Team

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with Board Intelligence.

We are sorry to hear you experienced some issues when logging in. We have looked into the issue and found that the most likely cause is due to your platform's security configuration. We would be very happy to talk this through and the options available, so please do not hesitate to reach out.

What do you like best about Board Intelligence?

Effective and robust board pack building tool with collaborating features. Interactive features such as Board reviews and comments. Response and feedback for onboarding and general queries are very prompt. Excellent service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Board Intelligence?

Sentencens in agenda sub items are cut off and cannot be red / seen in full view. Once needs to move the curser to the end of the sentence to get a full view. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Board Intelligence solving and how is that benefiting you?

Reader and user rights have been updated to enable collaboration between users and and Boards. This ensures comments can be address quicker as access to Boards are directly and immediately and does not need to be circulated electronically. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Michael McPherson of Board Intelligence

Dear Ane,

Thank you for your review of Board Intelligence! We're delighted to hear that you find our platform effective and robust, and we appreciate your feedback on the agenda sub-item issue. We'll work on addressing this to provide a more seamless experience. Thank you for your continued support.
