BoardEffect Pricing Overview

The most helpful thing is the huge meeting books and attachments that don't need to be sent out via emails to my board of directors. Going to one place, a porta,l helps keep the meeting materials secure and private. Board Directors can make annotations for the rest of the board and or the chair or staff members to read and easily comment back or clarify.

It helps keep the packages and questions related to the package in one place and easily address.

My contact person is Amy and she is AMAZING and helpful! Never has she not known the answers to my sometimes silly questions! The online support is also Amazing! You have a great support team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The one thing I dislike the most is the licence limits. If ever there was a way for the Board of Directors and internal staff to share licenses that will be helpful! For my organization in particular, as we are a not for profit, I find the Sales Teams not flexible with pricing for adding licenses even if 1-2. I understand we may have already been given a deal from out the gate, but it was very shocking to get the responses of No from the sales team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best thing about BoardEffect, hands down, is how it brought everything into one clean, organized space. Before, I’d have to dig through email threads, Google Docs, and old PDFs just to prep for a single meeting. Now, I log in, and everything I need—agendas, past minutes, reports—is right there. It sounds simple, but it’s honestly taken a huge weight off. I feel more prepared, less stressed, and like my time’s actually being respected. That’s no small thing when you’re juggling a board role with a full-time job. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Honestly, the learning curve in the beginning was a bit frustrating. When we first switched over, a few of us—especially the less tech-savvy board members—felt lost. It’s not the most intuitive platform right out of the gate, and I remember one meeting where we spent more time figuring out where a document was than actually discussing it.

Also, it’s not cheap. For smaller organizations like ours, the cost made us hesitate at first. It felt like a big leap.

That said, once we got past the early bumps and learned how to use it, those issues faded. But yeah, onboarding could definitely be smoother. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
