### "On par with BoardPro"

March 17, 2026

5.0

Building confidence and trust in navigating the platform, over time. Plenty to discover yet. Always interested to discover more of its features

Pros

We adopted the NFP version in 2025, which was step up from the old school paper shuffle. It has made for a simpler, more efficient flow of information and meeting management.

Cons

Nothing specifically. Adoption by the whole board has gone relatively well, despite the typical demographic wariness regarding 'technology'.

### "Easy to Learn"

December 9, 2025

5.0

I found it very easy to learn and we now have a very smooth Board pack compilation process. The minute taking process is also very good, easy to produce and then easy to confirm in the next meeting pack.

Pros

Easy to use, easy to load up papers and share information with Board members. Well structured to identify decisions, noting, etc and easy to attach papers.

Cons

Having to move between agenda and board pack in the checking phase. When I've finished a draft version of the pack being able to download and review the entire pack is not entirely intuitive.

### "Good design and an intuitive interface; BoardPro is making life much simpler for NEDs."

March 11, 2026

5.0

I'm now using BoardPro with two of the boards I'm involved with - both are NFPs and BoardPro has been a game changer for both. One is an older more established charity; the other more in a start up phase and BoardPro has served both organisations really well. My experience has been so good, I'm trying to get a third onto the platform. Fingers crossed! I've used two other platforms and BoardPro is definitely my preference.

Pros

Meeting management and sharing of documents is simple. It's super easy to use - even for novices. My colleagues think similarly and it seems to find a fit even cross very diverse organisations at different maturity stages. Truly intuitive.

Cons

Sometimes making notes is a bit clunky but I think the clunkiness is more with me than BoardPro and it really hasn't caused too much grief.

### "Board Pro Says It All"

December 1, 2025

5.0

Very satisfactory - never had a problem with access for multiple entities either as a Governor/Director/Trustee or CEO

Pros

Secure log in; quick access to folders; timeline approach and record of meetings; not subject to continuous upgrades in comparison to other Governance platforms; ability to store documents in a variety of folders

Cons

Until I sorted my various entity access protocols i.e. different email addresses for each of my Directorships and Operational roles I had to rely on admin staff providing links to the meeting papers. That is sorted now and I am able to log in directly to each organisation.

### "Intuitive cloud-based Board portal solution"

October 2, 2025

5.0

I have found it very intuitive to use. I also find the built in help topics generally helpful. When I have needed further guidance, I have been able to submit my question and get personalised responses.

Pros

It is easy to create agendas and upload documents. I also really like the flying minute function and ability to create Board only folders.

Cons

The search function is generally good - it searches within document titles for the whole site, or for keywords within a particular board pack. However I would also love the master search function to search for keywords within documents.

### "BoardPro -- the ONLY affordable Board portal solution"

November 26, 2024

5.0

Easy billing, available extras like free continuing education programs on governance, and while they have higher paid programs they do not try to upsell you. Customer support is available through text. Note that they are an Australian company, so there are some word-spelling differences ("organisation" vs "organization") and their regular business hours are not convenient to Americans, but this is a minor inconvenience and actually something I like about them.

Pros

BoardPro is the most affordable of all the board portal programs. It is a bit more bare-bones than some other programs, but it fits our needs and does so for a fraction of the cost. It keeps tracks of meeting schedules, agendas, and added documents for review. Our Board members are able to access the information for the meetings, and the system sends them reminder notifications automatically. The program works well for us.

Cons

It is a bit more bare-bones than other software, so aesthetically there are a few things I would change but they are insignificant. The thing that I like least is that there are a couple of programs that are available for an upcharge that I would like to be included in the basic program. The one that I would most like included at the basic rate is the add on that allows Board members to vote online.

### "BoarPro - New Zealand"

May 22, 2025

5.0

Smooth, easy to use, superb quality and value for money. Excellent platform and software, no issues ever whatsoever, reliable, delivers every time.

Pros

Excellent platform for managing Board meetings, governance comms and confidential files. It has made my work as a LIANZA Board member much more easier, faster and efficient and BoardPro kept me connected and up to date with all comms and my fellow colleagues.

Cons

Superb quality of file sharing and editable functionalities, it never failed to provide timely and essentials updates and access to board data and information.

June 8, 2025

4.0

Near excellent, however this could be improved with internal functionality and capability improvement

Pros

The security portal measures which enables secure access to on-boarding and sensitive documents stored.

June 24, 2025

This is a much better experience than other solutions. My other Board is moving to BoardPro because of my recommendation.

Pros

The voting functionality makes between Board meeting decisions so much more efficient. I highly recommend.

Cons

There have been several times where the website doesn't work and I can't access the documents at the time I want to.

### "Governance made easy"

October 8, 2024

5.0

BoardPro has become an integral part of our business as we have been experiencing rapid growth. With the use of the full product suite, we are able to cut the time of our board meetings in half - and have more productive meetings than before.

Pros

The user friendly interface was the first factor that got us on board. Our team comes from different backgrounds and technical abilities. Everyone was able to get in and use the product to its full on day one.

Cons

I don't have any negative comments about BoardPro. I'm a huge advocate.

### "Board Pro keeps your board organized!"

July 17, 2025

5.0

The Flying Minute feature has been especially valuable to us in documenting actions taken by the board in between meetings. Minutes can be taken during the meeting directly in Board Pro, then cleaned up later, with draft minutes available for review and comment. All supporting documents are archived and available for review at any time. It is easy to update documents when necessary, and board members will know when a document has changed since the last time they reviewed the board pack.

Pros

Board Pro allows the management team and officers to properly organize the agenda of each meeting, including supporting documentation, prior to the meeting. The board members can go through the agenda and documents during the meeting on their laptops, saving lots of paper! Actions are clearly documented and archived.

Cons

It is not free (but the cost is reasonable). There is a little bit of a learning curve for each new secretary and agenda-writer but it is not steep.

### "Amazing Product "

November 25, 2024

5.0

I use BoardPro on three boards. I love how a single login gives me access to all, even though my role on each board is different. E-Signatures is so easy! I also love how it doesn't matter what device I'm using - I can easily access everything. My annotations follow me - not my device! And the help team are awesome! So quick to respond. 💖 This is amazing value for money. All the features of the expensive apps, at 10x less in price.

Pros

BoardPro anticipates what I need before I need it.

Cons

I'm looking forward to what they do next!

### "BoardPro will save you time and effort!"

September 23, 2025

5.0

Our NFP had been using a 3rd party to manage and take our minutes. BoardPro put this back in our control and saved us money.

Pros

Ease of use. BoardPro takes the time out of creating agendas and recording minutes. It gave us structure and a repeatable model that makes sharing the Board pack very easy.

Cons

That we didn't start using it sooner! Managing meetings and agendas from scratch (without BoardPro) is a false economy.

### "BoardPro - our trusted governance partner"

November 26, 2024

5.0

BoardPro has not only made our board meetings and documentation management easy and efficient, but through the regular webinars and sharing of resources BoardPro has really become our strategic governance partner.

Pros

The integrated way of linking agenda, board packs, minutes, and documents makes governance really easy. I love BoardPro’s willingness to develop and share resources and training on many different topics, which we rely on for continuous training of our board members.

Cons

I don’t dislike anything about BoardPro. Having the ability to develop chatbots within our Board platforms would be amazing.

Overall, BoardPro delivers a good experience—easy to use, professional, and ideal for nonprofits. It streamlines board processes, improves meeting efficiency, and supports good governance with tools that are both practical and accessible.

Pros

BoardPro offers exceptional value for money, is easy to use, and provides great free training webinars—making it an ideal solution for charities.

Cons

Searching for old documents or details can be tricky—BoardPro’s search isn’t always intuitive. It’s very hard to find old minutes, based on word topic search etc

June 30, 2025

Emerging user so just taking minutes for the first few times. The structure of needing to use notes and then a separate action/resolution could be integrated.

Pros

Use of templates to generate minutes and agendas and also manage interest registers. We are also using it as a document register

Cons

The taking of minutes is a little clunky - it would be good to be able to move more easily from the notes to the resolution/action

November 25, 2024

5.0

Excellent. Our board includes people with a variety of technical expertise. They've all managed to become competent navigating within the system. I'd be very reluctant to move to a different provider.

Pros

BoardPro is easy to use and more affordable than comparable products. This system has greatly simplified the distribution of monthly board packages.

Cons

The only real problem we've had was convincing our auditors and examiners that a company based in New Zealand was safe. As a bank, we're under extra scrutiny but the team at BoardPro worked to help provide documentation needed.

It has been a huge time saver and documents are safe now that we don't require paper reports anymore.

Pros

It is interactive, minutes are taken in real time and it is very easy to use. NO paper is huge plus.

Cons

No capacity for In Committee items yet, but they are working on it. The access levels seem a bit broad, these could be more defined to limit access.
