Diligent is a Great product that saves SO MUCH TIME!! Never create hard copy books ever again!
- Love the ease of creating Board and Committee Meeting materials
- Love the D&O Questionnaire module
- Love the ability to retrieve and review archived materials
- Maybe available - I just don't know - the ability to see the emails sent to Directors and/or officers when sending materials through the portal after the materials are sent
- Would like to be able to see who has looked at the materials
- Would like to have the ability to notarize electronically in the portal
- Would like the ability to make edits in my document in the board book portal - not just upload a newly revised document
review
- Manages books
- Keeps board members engaged during meetings
- D&O is easy to use and efficient.
- The web functions need to mirror the oneclick functions
- Getting your service team to respond to issues in a timely manner has been a problem for us.
- The multi factor log-on requirement was not an easy process
- Support should be able to provide consistent and reliable assistance.
Be Diligent! Use Diligent Boards!!
- Customer support is second to none
- Ease of use
- I currently use one click as I like the functionality of importing a word agenda and being able to link. I know there is an updated version but sometimes new is not always better! Please keep one click!
Honest Review of Diligent
- Response time to questions and calls is very good.
- It is very easy to put a board book together.
- They are always asking if you want to add on new functions without informing you of the additional costs until the very end.
- I think there should be a one sheet explanation of the services you offer and cost.
- I have attended several of the online courses and they assume you are using the newest platform and I use One Click.
Great Product
- Ease of uploading of documents
- Customer Support
- Overall user friendly and east of use
- moving documents between tabs is a big issue that could be resolved
- While we are a large user, it would be helpful to allow larger organization more control (i.e., add and remove users)
Great product and Excellent Service
- Security
- Ease of use
- Product support
- Customer support
- The ability to enable account feature without contacting Account manager (example Adding date and time stamp to signatures)
- Have all the functionality available in the One-Click application available in the Web admin.
The best BoD and AC repository
The only thing that has given me some trouble is when I have tried to substitute some parts of the material, and it does not allow me to do so. I do not know if it has any implication in the counselors annotations whether I substitute or not the material.
- Easy to find
- Shortcuts
- Archive
- Uploading more than 1 file at the time
I can always count on Diligent Boards.
- Easy to use both from an administrative perspective and from an end user prospective.
- Stores historical information that both the legal department and the end user can utilize when needed.
- Provides a secure way to share this information.
- It would be nice when using the link functionality that you had a preview screen. The Web version currently does not have this capability.
- It would be nice if we could archive resource documents similar to how books are archived.
- If the product was more cost effective, we would be able to expand it to other users that prepare board materials but don't necessarily attend the board meetings.
New user.
- communication
- training
- user-friendly
- Diligent could offer practice runs for board meetings.
- Specialists could be on call for board meeting postings.
- Diligent could offer a community board to answer questions in real-time.
Great service!
- availability of the information
- uploading means
- control information
- organization of the information
- 24 hrs. support.
- They usually listen to suggestions and work on them.
- They speak my own language.
- Same functionality and appearance no matter the device used to work with Diligent Boards (App vs web, laptop, tablet, iphone, android ...).
- Questionnaires - I've found it is not possible to send reminders from Diligent Boards.
- Votes: it is not possible to have more than 1 issue to vote. Either you vote all your issues for or against, there is no other possibility available. If we have more than one decision to make, we use questionnaires because the vote function is no useful in such cases. Questionnaires are ok but they demand more work and follow up.
Saved us During Pandemic!
- Easy to create book with subtitles and links
- Easy to create pdf from the material
- If I have issues I always get help from the support
- I like that I am offered training if I need to update my knowledge
- 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.
Diligent Review
- Reports control
- Dissemination of strategic information
- Historical information repository
- Slight complexity of use
- It would be nice to have a more user-friendly and intuitive interface
- Make it easier to manage permissions for users and information consultants
Likewise, the support and help service so far has been excellent, they always attend us in a timely manner, with a very good attitude helping us to solve our doubts.
Diligent Boards is No.1!
- Easy to create a new 'book' or copy from an existing book
- Easy to upload papers including replacing/deleting
- Very good to be able to restrict access on certain papers within book
- Extremely beneficial for Users to access their account via the Web
- Some new features require the Customer Success Manager/Diligent Team to activate them first, which can be time consuming and can result in delays in having these, especially when the features were outlined in a webinar a few months prior. For example, the self-service function.
- It would be good to have access to our contract within our account so I can keep track of the amount of contracted Users and whether we have exceeded our limit
Diligent is a perfect name for this product!
- Makes organizing easier
- Helps keep documents confidential without bunches of email
- The prefill manager works particularly well in the questionnaire section
- Formatting in the questionnaire needs improvement. I end up with different fonts and sizes for some reason. Wish there was a way to universally change the font. It's tedious going into each question individually.
- Sub questions and making questions contingent is a bit clunky. Could use some improvement
Strong Product Overall
- Boards has done a wonderful job with providing ease of uploading materials and editing capabilities.
- Boards has made adding and deleting users quite simple and effective.
- Please, please add the ability to download pdfs with links on your online Boards platform. It is the only thing keeping me from using the online version of Boards entirely.
- Boards support team is fairly helpful, though I feel like I am often having to resolve a bit more on my own even after "solutions" are provided. Boards support is, though, way more effective than Diligent Entities support- we have had a horrendous time with Entities support each time we use them. It is easier to try to resolve on my own, even though it takes up a lot of my time.
Quick growth at the expense of customer service.
- Flexibility in managing permissions and access at the document level.
- Revision capabilities.
- Comprehensive one stop shop for our board.
- Lack of congruency between OneClick and Diligent Web.
- Printing in OneClick is still more robust than Web.
- In my opinion, Customer Service lacking. (Provided web articles don't match concerns and include features not yet launched.)
- Training for Admins seems focused on sales and newly developed web features that may not be applicable to the Admin's tasks.
- Rules for Admins have changed without proper communication.
- In my experience, there is severe latency with uploading and launching documents. The server page does not seem to reflect status issues in real-time.
- Visual result features for the questionnaire module are at additional costs. (Charts and Graphs)
