### "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'.

### "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.

### "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.

### "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.

### "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.

June 24, 2025

4.0

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.

March 29, 2026

Great wouldn't be without it now. This product is flexible and user friendly. Easy to access documents and plenty of great tools to assist me.

Pros

I enjoy working in BoardPro - it is easy to use and i have a single place to work from. It has all the functionality i need for the type of work and boards that i am involved with.

Cons

Nothing - i am a basic user and it has all the necessary bits and pieces that i need. Easy to use and intuitive.

### "Board Papers with easy access "

April 6, 2026

5.0

Great way to receive and handle board papers - like having papers plus all editing and notes digitally

Pros

Easy to use. Bookmarks work. You can highlight points AND make comments. You can go backwards easily- and jump to bookmy

Cons

Going backwards is a challenge until familiarity builds through use. Magnification can be a little clumsy.

November 25, 2025

5.0

My overall experience is the fact that it is user friendly, easy to navigate, easy to amend agenda and upload pre-reads.

Pros

It is efficient and ensure all members to a meeting are informed on changes in the agenda and the meeting pack by a simple click of the publish button.

Cons

There is nothing that I don't like. The platform is great. Maybe you can add a video conferencing software like MS Teams to be able to join remotely or record a meeting.

### "BoardPro makes governance easy "

November 25, 2025

5.0

Positive and easy to keep everything in one place. A good structure helps to minimise duplication of papers and documents.

Pros

Helpful to have all boards in one portal. Easy to use and record notes and keep everything in one place

Cons

Need to be connected to the internet to use so can’t use offline so can be used when travelling and no wifi connection is available

### "Board pro is worthwhile."

August 14, 2025

5.0

Pros

Board pro provides seamless board meeting administration and provides a single source of truth for directors and trustees regarding decisions, minutes, & agenda. The ability to circulate reports and make decisions outside of scheduled board meetings leads to timely decision making and greater knowledge shared between operations and board level. The search function is also extremely helpful to see historical records.

Cons

We have had some anecdotal issues for our trustees that belong to several trusts and struggling to log in to the right company. This might be related to multiple-email accounts used across several businesses.

### "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!

### "A great asset for our amateur New Zealand Heartland rugby union."

December 10, 2024

5.0

Efficiency plus - As President and a board member I am informed and able to get my reports and photographs added through our GM. It makes for a very efficient well-informed Board meeting, and it cuts out endless sheets of paper copies to wade through that had to be sent out well before the meeting. It is simply awesome!!!

Pros

The Board pro is excellent for our Board - we are an amateur New Zealand Heartland Rugby Union. The system allows us to easily connect all reports/photographs and deliver them easily before the meeting to all members to read. The system ensures that we have a swift but informed meeting every time. It is incredibly user friendly and very efficient. It allows us to be organized and systematic - ensures we stick to the meeting agenda as it is all set out for us to consider systematically.

Cons

Nothing!!!!!It is simply wonderful, efficient and easy to use.

October 7, 2025

4.0

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

Pros

The website is easy to navigate & intuitive, everything is in one place and its 'safe'.

Cons

I honestly cant think of anything to change, the organization i work for use the basic product (NGO), and i am on a Board that has premium which is brilliant.

August 27, 2025

5.0

We have been using BoardPro for a year now and it provides a formalised system which provides structure for our meetings.

Pros

This is a fully automated system that saves time and costs in preparing, running and following up on Board Meetings

Cons

There can be some duplication with reminders, which tend to be repetitive. An open note back to the system would probably help in acknowledging receipt of an action point reminder or limit the number of reminders.

### "BoardPro Magic"

June 19, 2025

5.0

BoardPro has been a godsend, as a new Board Secretary; I couldn't live without it. It has streamlined the process and reduced administrative tasks.

Pros

So easy to use, makes agendas and minutes easy and quick to complete, while saving time and money on printing.

Cons

It would be good to be able to send reminders about the meetings to members. In-committee minutes would be a great feature.

### "Excellent even for a medium sized NFP"

July 14, 2025

5.0

Great, also when I started I sent a chat through the help chat and got many quick responses and suggestions. Appreciated that heaps.

Pros

So easy to do minutes live and then edit later. So easy to track everything even if board doesnt use it fully. Easy to centralise communications. Minutes look really nicely laid out. Board pack is excellent - wasn't sure if it had contents, love that it did.

Cons

When I use a set template to create an agenda, I can't edit parts of that template that don't work for me. I have to delete the whole thing and start again building my own. Not huge, just learnt it the hard way.

I love it, after all the different ways I've interacted with Board papers in the past, this is my favourite.

Pros

Being able to have all the docs in one place, and being able to comment on them and everyone seeing the same version.

Cons

None I can think of, I find it easy to navigate, easy to get messages to users from and fun to use. I recommend this product.

### "Helps me stay organised!"

July 3, 2025

5.0

Very good; it's easy to use and keeps me organised. It makes a big difference to how organised I feel in advance of meetings, and stores all my papers and minutes in ones place.

Pros

Board Pro makes managing, reading and annotating board papers easy. It also helps me to track my actions; I am on a lot of committees, and it is easy to lose track without this help.

Cons

I like BoardPro a lot. I'd like to see a feature that helps me skip between my own comments so that I don't have to scroll to find them.

### "Great easy platform for board/governance support!"

November 12, 2024

5.0

Easy to use, great functions. I really enjoy it thank you!

Pros

It is a great platform for governance support. An easy programme to use with specific functions for governance work. The layout of the menu bar is clear dashboard, meetings/calendar schedule, actions, documents...etc. are all really clear functions helping governance/board meeting support. i really enjoy the easy transfer of info for minute taking, confirming minutes for upcoming meetings and communication with members. it's really easy to use overall

Cons

To duplicate agenda items into future meetings. For example, I have a scheduled meeting for December and previous agenda items from September I would like to duplicate an item/s for December meeting instead having to re-write it/copy paste etc. I know I can re-create a new meeting and duplicate agenda items that way but it would be great to be able to duplicate specific agenda items AND its content into meetings instead deleting the meeting and starting a new one Also, if there was a way to connect our outlook app to the schedule meeting as an event and inform our members, team. that would be great

April 2, 2025

5.0

I like using board pro because it makes it easier to see everything that's happening in an easy to access way

Pros

i like being able to vote on circular resolutions through flying minutes rather than doing an email chain which we previously did before using boardpro

Cons

The fact that flying minutes aren't available on the home tab, which is a small issue that could be improved upon

Seamless, which is essential in my role.

Pros

Ease of use and navigation makes BoardPro an essential component of our board process.

Cons

I'd be keen to see our organisation introduce two factor authentication to access BoardPro given the sensitivity of the information it contains.
