What do you like best about BoardEffect?

Board Effect is a great solution to keep track of board documents. We have used it for a few years now, but we were especially grateful for the product during the pandemic this year. All board members could access the board information easily and quickly. If we had to have an emergency meeting, we were able to gather and create a board book without difficulty. We also use the product for our Foundation and Friends Boards and for our executive and director meetings. I highly recommend BoardEffect for anyone with boards. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BoardEffect?

The biggest drawback is if you make an edit to a document you must re-upload the document. You can't open the uploaded document and edit it in the board book. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Bella Basso of BoardEffect

Hi there!

Thank you so much for your positive feedback! We’re thrilled to hear that BoardEffect has been such a valuable tool for your organization, especially during the pandemic. We're also excited to share that with the recent Microsoft 365 integration, admins can now edit documents directly within the Meeting Book or stored in a folder in the Library without needing to re-upload.

If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to your customer success manager or our customer support team. We're always here to help!

Thank you again for your review!

What do you like best about BoardEffect?

Centralized platform for all board materials; cuts down on email; more secure than emailing data via pdf attachments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BoardEffect?

Antiquated, clunky, and slow system, that most of our board members refuse to use (meaning they continue to email the board liaison for all their needs). Also expensive for what it is. Doesn’t provide any sort of dashboard for administrators to easily view metrics, such as login activity, frequency of use, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Having separate workroom libraries is a little cumbersome. Would prefer a central library with the ability to add security to the various folders. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
