Atlassian Stride (discontinued) vs. Diligent Boards

Stride works well for those looking for just a communication tool. However, there are a lot of similar programs out there that offer more interesting features without being overwhelming. The simplicity works for and against Stride. Smaller groups would find Stride useful, especially if they are not concerned with the public rooms

Diligent is pricey, so it is suitable for large-size organizations with sufficient funding. Universities and colleges would be good clients. Diligent is not suitable for small organizations or not-for-profit organizations due to the pricing. There are other options to distribute and share documents, such as Google format, so I think pricing is the key to expand the market for Diligent.

• Easy end-user interface - for boards with maybe less technological experience, the format was very user friendly.
• Facsimile signature - eliminates trying to coordinate schedules to obtain signatures to written consents.
• Customer Service - Diligent Boards trained employees, not a call center, available 24/7.

• Dark theme would be nice
• Better integrations to 1 on 1 chats, some software only works in group/room chat
• Platform is going away in a few months, so letting it run longer would be nice.

Incentivized

• I am using one click, it would be nice to see what board members see
• I mentioned before I would like to be able to sort documents by various parameters like importance, date, type
• Talking to other assistance i find that everyone knows something different about quicker ways to load, maybe a weekly/monthly tip would be beneficial.

Great service!

Quick service, specially on loading.

As previously stated, I applaud how effective the customer service team was during the onboarding process. They communicated effectively and offered around-the-clock assistance. The training sessions are also useful and allow you to learn at your own pace. They are also willing to set up time to discuss any concerns.

The training was executed through a Deligent meber.

I think our Diligent Boards implementation went well

Stride falls short in almost every regard. While Stride is affordable, Slack and Ryver offer vital integrations that increase efficiency and are more enjoyable for employees to use. The features of Slack and Ryver that add personalization of chat (private vs. public) also add a layer of efficiency and flexibility that are hard to pass up for the simplicity and affordability of Stride.

It was the end user interface that ultimately sold me on Diligent Boards. I also appreciated the customer service center being Diligent employees, the high level of security features, and the single username and password for directors with multiple Diligent Boards sites.

It is really worth it.

• Stride helps with keeping your email inbox cleaner and more organized. More conversational messages can be done through Stride leaving our emails less cluttered and finding emails easier.
• Stride assists with keeping a record of all your past conversations with all team members. Referring to previous communications help us keep track of current statuses of projects.
• Stride helps us keep track of documents we've shared in the past with the team and retrieve them if we need to refer back to them later.

• Security of the materials is the #1 priority and Diligent is definitely on top of security.
• Building books has become easier.
