Board portals can be beneficial to administrators as well as board members. Directors can easily and safely access current and historical material for meetings to help prepare meetings. Administrators can make it easier for preparing digital board packages as well as recording minutes of meetings and distributing actions items. This improves governance and saves valuable time for both the board as well as the BoardMaps administrative staff of the board.
When choosing a vendor, ensure that they offer dedicated client support with experienced experts available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. This will ensure that you get immediate assistance with any issues or questions especially during times when you’re in the most need. Think about how others rate the provider’s support and if they have won awards for their outstanding service.
Some vendors charge additional fees for additional committees administration, training, and data storage. When comparing pricing, take a look at these additional costs to see how they affect the overall cost.
Test it before you purchase. Ask vendors for a free trial so that you can determine whether the software can meet your requirements. Also look for a vendor that offers a mobile app so that directors can use the software on their preferred devices, even while traveling to work. This will ensure that they can keep up-to date with meeting agendas, notes, and documents, as as easily attend meetings remotely.
