What is OnBoard Board Management Software?

OnBoard is a board management software and virtual meeting system. The vendor says it has been engineered to drive good governance and improve meeting outcomes by featuring tools designed for directors so that they can focus on strategy during meetings, and make them working sessions rather than just operational presentations.

Its interface was designed to put what’s important front and center – upcoming meetings and board books. So meetings become more productive, board book access becomes intuitive, archives are readily accessible, and voting is simple.

OnBoard offers security, full disaster recovery, active geo-replication, and is compliant with a range of international information security standards, including but not limited to: GLBA, FERPA, HIPAA, FISMA ISO 27001/27002, SOC1, SOC2, SOC 3, as well as cloud security with OnBoard: Microsoft Azure. OnBoard offer various features such as a Zoom integration, Meeting Minutes Builder, Voting & Approvals, and Messenger.

The vendor reports that thousands of directors from growing startups to Fortune 1000 organizations use OnBoard. Contact the vendor for a full-feature, 30-day free trial.

Community Insights

TrustRadius Insights are summaries of user sentiment data from TrustRadius reviews and, when necessary, 3rd-party data sources. Have feedback on this content? Let us know!

User-Friendly and Intuitive Interface: Many users have praised the software for its user-friendly and intuitive interface, making it easy to navigate and perform tasks. Several reviewers have mentioned that they found it straightforward to add or change items in the board packet, indicating a positive experience with the software's usability.

Convenient Electronic Signatures: The ability to easily add electronic signatures to agenda items has been appreciated by multiple reviewers. This feature has made it convenient for board members to sign off on important documents without any hassle.

Centralized Resource Center: The centralized Resource Center has received positive feedback from users as it allows companies to securely upload significant documents like Bylaws. This ensures easy access for board members, according to several reviewers who have highlighted this beneficial feature of the software.

Cons: Limited file type compatibility: Some users have mentioned that OnBoard does not support all file types, such as movies that are not embedded in PowerPoint files. This limitation can be frustrating for those who regularly work with various types of media files. Syncing issues and IT dependency: Several users have experienced syncing issues during seasonal time changes, which sometimes prevent them from accessing OnBoard. It has been reported that IT department assistance is required to resolve these issues, causing inconvenience and delays in using the platform. Additional cost for new features: A common complaint among users is the fact that new features in OnBoard come at an additional cost. Some users feel disappointed by this and suggest including new features within the already purchased package to provide better value for money.

Users highly recommend using OnBoard for board meeting needs, especially for non-profit entities. They find OnBoard to be a reasonably priced and user-friendly system with great support, suitable for board members of all technical abilities. Users suggest utilizing customer support, attending webinars, and running test meetings when using OnBoard. Additionally, users recommend conducting a competitive analysis and comparing OnBoard to other providers, as it offers great functionality at a reasonable price. Users believe that OnBoard is easier to use than BoardVantage and recommend it for any organization with a board of directors. They advise running through all the tutorials provided by OnBoard for a better understanding of the software. However, if an organization is a small nonprofit with low-key action items, users recommend using other platforms like Google Drive.

  • Allows for easy additions or changes to the board packet.
  • Provides imbedded electronic signatures easily linked to appropriate agenda items.
  • Provides an easily downloadable copy of the packet and agenda.
  • Allows companies to upload documents of significance such as Bylaws into a centralized Resource Center which is securely accessible.
  • Customer support is excellent. You can always get a timely answer via phone or email. The follow-up on issues that can't be resolved immediately is very timely and thorough.
  • I'd like to see the electronic signature feature upgraded to allow signature box rotation. Sometimes documents are a combination of portrait and landscape and the current setup only recognizes one orientation when inserting signature boxes.
  • There is a syncing issue that occurs during seasonal time changes that sometimes prevents users from accessing OnBoard. Our IT department has needed to help board members resolve this and regain access.
  • There are several new features to OnBoard now, but they come at a cost. While it's nice to demo these features, it would be great to have some new features included in the already purchased package instead of at an additional cost.
  • The Zoom integration is nice but doesn't meet our needs. You do not have screen share or other Zoom features available while using it integrated within OnBoard. For remote meetings, we use Zoom and screen share OnBoard within its own browser.

  • Virtual voting
  • Virtual meetings with Zoom integration
  • Housing of all board books and meeting calendars in one place with integration with Outlook Calendar
  • The Zoom functionality isn't the same as the full Zoom suite, such as Zoom Conference
  • The file system isn't as easy to move files around in and some file types aren't supported
  • It is expensive to bring in large volumes of users

  • Saves preparation time.
  • Can be accessed on any device from any location.
  • Intuitive and user-friendly.
  • Very responsive technical support.
  • Plentiful support materials.
  • Currently, you cannot block an entire group from a topic; you need to block attendees individually.
  • it would be nice to indent a section by using tabbing.
  • the added button for "save changes" in each section tends to slow down progress; edits used to be saved automatically and tended to be faster.

  • Assembles board books
  • Provides for remote votes on resolutions
  • Easy to navigate
  • Great roles and permissions functions
  • Nice filing system for historical documents
  • Not all file types can be saved in OnBoard [Board Management] such as movies and things like that which aren't embedded in PowerPoint files.
  • Permissions can be unwieldy at times. It would be nice to have one screen that shows by [the] user all of their permissions.
  • The zoom functionality on OnBoard [Board Management] is different than the typical Zoom package as it doesn't provide for meetings vs conferences.
  • Files aren't saved logically sometimes.
  • Hard to move files from one folder to another.

  • Secure board materials - the administrator can control what board members see what materials.
  • Contact information - email and mailing addresses are readily available.
  • Board terms - term lengths for every board member is tracked through the system.
  • Meeting feedback - simple surveys are sent immediately after a meeting to get feedback from meeting attendees for future planning.
  • Most all of the areas that we needed to more effectively manage our board meetings are included now.
