Users have reported that the real-time usage of BoardPro greatly enhances collaboration and task execution across multiple teams. With the ability to differentiate and classify documentation, BoardPro effectively organizes and centralizes useful information for different teams.

Some of these key functions include setting agendas, distributing board packs, updating papers online, annotating papers, writing well-structured minutes, distributing and approving minutes, making decisions between scheduled meetings, maintaining an Interests Register and Decisions Register, searching previous meeting documents, and providing action reminders.

In addition to its use in managing meetings, BoardPro also serves as a control panel for managing projects. It allows users to easily access all project details without wasting time searching through emails or local repositories. This centralized approach ensures that everyone is working with the latest version of documents while efficiently tracking corrections or integrations made by team members. Furthermore, every document in BoardPro is linked to an event in the agenda, simplifying document sharing with meeting participants.

BoardPro has received positive feedback from a variety of organizations. A small not-for-profit organization reported that its board members find BoardPro easy to navigate and use. They appreciate being able to access board papers ahead of meetings and easily follow the board pack during meetings. By uploading required documents before meetings and sending out board packs in advance, BoardPro helps create streamlined board meetings while eliminating the problem of disorganization.

The best scenarios for the use of BoardPro are highlighted when there is planning, development, coordination, execution and monitoring of projects and activities, in addition to being an information panel for all the members of the different teams of the organization, it provides the ability to hold meetings, an integrating element that stands out from other software. The management of the boards is exceptionally intuitive and easy to use, in addition to simplifying its content in a way that is easy to understand for all people, granting continuity and consistency to the work or works to be developed. An area of opportunity where it could be developed in a better way is offline work, since it will not be possible for your team members to work in this way.

BoardPro has potential when you have to manage different projects or, for the same project, different tasks. This because in my opinion, the main advantage is having in a unique board all the details for every single project without switch from outlook, to word, to one not or to local repository or so on. Moreover, when you have to manage different project often the subjects are different but the way to manage is quite similar (for instance, in the case of the "Agile method") and with BoardPro you can create some standard templates that you can re-use in different tasks. Less appropriate when you have to manage a simple task, with few people (groups of three/four people) to coordinate, because even if Board Pro can be use, you can have same results also with other instruments (basically only with outlook and its function of meetings and emails)

BoardPro is the pre-eminent tool to be used for board of directors. BoardPro is well suited for not-for-profit organisations or any board that is looking for a tool that is simple to use and effective. COVID19 has meant that we have no face-to-face meetings and a lot of decisions are required within a short time-frame due to the changing landscape because of COVID19. The flying minute feature has allowed us to make decisions quickly and efficiently.

I can log in at any time and add agenda items to the next meeting.

I can assign actions during board meetings and these are sent out to different board members after the board meeting to follow up - automated.

I don't have to redo minutes and send out - it is all done during the meeting.

I am using BoardPro in two other organisations - one of which is a national NGO and the other a small charity. Without BoardPro, servicing so many Boards and sub-committees efficiently would be nearly impossible. I have recently implemented BoardPro in the small charity to help it on its journey developing its governance and growing its service. This has been welcomed by the Board. The structure provided within BoardPro is excellent and they offer discounted rates for Not-for-Profits. I see it as being suitable for all organisations.
