What do you like best about Diligent Boards?

There is so much to lover about Diligent Boards ... I frequently use Diligent, and am able to prepare meetings for the several forums we use Diligent Boards for knowing that each meeting participants can access their relevant material for all of these in one secure space, or even by pdf if required ... as well as being able to easily find, reference and archive.

Voting papers on Circular Resolutions easily made, circulated, monitored and finalised.

Easy for Board members to access / vote using mobile phones or laptops.

Resource Centre excellent for auxilliary / supplemental information and documents.

Self service implementation, administration and onboarding of new members/forums, and if anything doesn't work quite as expected, there is always the superb Customer Support providing very prompt response and the Customer Service staff are extremely knowledgeable and fix / advise on any issue or questions professionally and expertly! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Diligent Boards?

Least user friendly aspect I have found in the past is calendar. I have not used this in several years as we use other calendar software/apps, so am a little out of date on the use of any new features, such as integration with Outlook calendars? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Secure and efficient -

Secure distribution and storage of sensitive information to the "right" people without having to save multiple documents, or printing, or sending several emails.

Record keeping and storage -

Archiving old books, and managing voting papers, incidential/supplementary information in one space which is easy for members to find and refer to, without having to re-send information by less secure means.

Everyone being "on the same page" - distributing, updating, linking and presenting board books so that everyone has exactly the same information, from the same source - no 'old' copies floating about. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Diligent Boards?

The number one feature of Diligent Boards is how easy it makes it to manage board meetings and documents. Easy to use platform means board members can easily get into meeting materials and collaborate. I like how strongly secure it is, such as restricting the access to documents. Through integration with tools like Microsoft Office, documents can be easily collaborated with on while performing board related tasks thus improving efficiency. Really helping us out with the workflow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Diligent Boards?

The one thing that I’ve noticed with Diligent Boards is that sometimes syncing documents can lag occasionally, especially with large files. That frustration comes about when updates aren’t seen in real time during meetings. The syncing may delay and while the platform is, in general, solid, delays can affect the flow of discussions. The mobile app also could be a bit more intuitive, for those features are a bit harder to access on smaller screens. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Diligent Boards is solving a lot of board meeting management and document collaboration problems. It cuts down the need for physical documents, they make things easier and save time. Sensitive documents can only be shared once the security features check them with the authorized users. It has made our board meetings more efficient and more collaborative, making better decision making possible with all that needs to be discussed in one central location.
