## Reviews

### "You need BoardEffect's Platform\!" — 5.0/5

> **Cassandra** | *17 September 2018* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It's EXTREMELY user-friendly, offers a VAST number of functionalities, app now mimics browser including offline use. It's customizable depending on the org's needs. It's secure. It flows. The platform is what one makes of it.
> 
> **Cons**: I can't say I dislike anything about this platform. It's designed based on clients' needs. Everything works the way it should and in the 2 years I've used it, I haven't had one bad thing to say.
> 
> It's a brilliant platform\! And the support team is absolutely incredible\! I've never experienced such wonderful people, who are patient, informative and friendly.

### "BoardEffect Evaluation" — 5.0/5

> **Debi** | *8 July 2025* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It is intuitive and user friendly. Very easy to learn. The training videos cover all of the topics and are easy to locate when assistance is needed.
> 
> **Cons**: I would like to be able to change the spacing in the message space when sending out Board meeting books.
> 
> Excellent, easy to setup, learn, and use for staff members and Board members. The tutorials are very helpful, cover all of the topics, and are easy to locate based on the subject matter. I like that there are separate tutorials for Administrators and Board members. Colleagues in the office found the platform easy to learn. It is intuitive in navigating.

### "MEH, it's okay." — 3.0/5

> **Doris** | *8 July 2025* | Insurance | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I can put all my board documents in one place for the board to review. That's about the only thing I like about BoardEffect.
> 
> **Cons**: The agenda set up. We are not able to put in the time expected to give to each item on the agenda. The Board liked that it would give a total of time we expected the meeting to last. It is also not as user friendly as BoardPaq. BoardPaq was the perfect platform for us.
> 
> I find it cumbersome to use and find it isn't as easy to use a template from a prior meeting as BoardPaq. Overall, I am not happy with this product, but we will continue to use it since you took BoardPaq away from us.

### "Secure Platform" — 4.0/5

> **Kristen** | *8 July 2025* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It’s a secure platform with lots of features. It looked clean and was nice to organize files and events.
> 
> **Cons**: Some features were limiting to use given the complexity of our need for forms, signatures, etc. We had low user engagement.

### "Best portal ever" — 5.0/5

> **Diana** | *16 June 2025* | Nonprofit Organisation Management | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The ease of managing everything in one place... Plus point is also that it is easily accessible. I have had alot of compliments from the Directors that it was easy to navigate and use.
> 
> **Cons**: Not at the moment. Everything was easy, quick, and clear. Though I was bugging the team when I was having some silly troubles of not getting the RSVP list up and making the book visible.... But after, it was really easy\! Thank you BoardEffect Team for all you do\!
> 
> The ease of having everything in one place... from creating attendance, getting RSVP, uploading meeting documents, and even accessing ZOOM from the portal. Definitely a good decision to make the migration.
