What do you like best about Diligent Boards?

Diligent Boards excels at making it simple to manage confidential materials, and to hold people accountable. Secure sharing on the platform leaves sensitive files accessible only to those individuals authorized to see the files to build trust amongst the team. Structured task allocation is who is responsible for what deliverable and becomes less confusing. A practical feature is notifications about updates and changes – everyone is aware where they stand without further administrative effort. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Diligent Boards?

The biggest drawback to Diligent Boards is that its full functionality requires constant perfect internet connectivity. This has been disrupting meeting prep on a number of occasions because when our connection is slow or slightly unstable, the access to critical features such as document review or collaboration becomes near impossible. Furthermore, the process of setting up user permissions is time consuming and unintuitive, which demands further steps to make sure everyone in a team gets the right level of access. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Diligent Boards solving and how is that benefiting you?

Diligent Boards has made a huge difference in the way we share and protect our board materials by making work with the board much easier. Activities like forwarding of agendas, minutes making, and follow up on decisions to be made have been easier and eliminated pressure. It has also strengthened the issues of privacy of the platform since users cannot view or edit documents, it has also enhanced accountability in decision making processes.

What do you like best about Diligent Boards?

It’s easier than you think to prepare and distribute meeting materials with Diligent Boards. I like the information being shared securely and being able to update in real time to keep things accurate. Most prominent of all is the built in annotation tools that allow me to quickly review and mark up documents. More than that, we integrate with our email and file sharing systems, so everything is tied together. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Diligent Boards?

In case you are using the mobile version of Diligent Boards, then unfortunately, one drawback is occasional lag that disturbs productivity. There is no way to freely work outside the office. And for new users, it takes some time before they finally get hold of and use all its features which delays the initial implementation period. I have also found that it lacks customization options for a few workflows, giving you only a handful of ways to adjust that workflow to fit the needs of your business. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Diligent Boards solving and how is that benefiting you?

Diligent Boards eliminates the hassle of getting meeting materials organized and distributed in a timely fashion, giving everyone secure access to the latest files so everyone has the most up to date information. Meetings are now better arranged with their scheduling and agenda features, they are less chaotic, less last minute, and we have better control of our time. All of these improvements made the board process much easier and streamlined. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Diligent Boards?

Robust security features are the specialty of Diligent Boards. Access to control over documents is essential so that information can be protected. One feature that I like about the audit trail is I can see what documents have done, giving me one more level of monitoring and ensuring everything is publicly visible. Overall, that we have confidence that ultimately our most important data is in safe hands. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Diligent Boards?

A problem of Diligent Boards that I’ve had is the lack of offline access. When there is no internet and I’m unable to see documents sometimes I get myself someplace else. It is very inconvenient given the fact that I’m trying to read and make changes to materials during meetings. Having more offline functionality would also be great to support these users in such a situation. However, this has occasionally interrupted workflow when I’m on the go and offline.

What problems is Diligent Boards solving and how is that benefiting you?

Diligent Boards have made a huge different when it comes to board meeting preparation and management. People just have files in paper, now everything is on the computer, so the meetings are far more productive. It has also enhanced the protection of the documents so as to minimize cases of leakage of sensitive documents among others. They have claimed that through the help of the platform the amount of administrative overhead time and effort has been significantly cut and collaboration has become much easier.
