OnBoard has many functions and tools that are useful and time efficient when creating meetings, creating board materials within the meetings, and so easy for the end user to navigate and use. I especially love that OnBoard partnered with Zoom so I can create virtual meetings that allows everyone to participate either by phone, virtual zoom and combo of the two.

“OnBoard is very user-friendly for both the administrator and the…”
OnBoard is very user-friendly for both the administrator and the user. This feature is especially important for users who have various levels of comfort and expertise with technology. Our college switched to OnBoard in October 2014, and before that our Board meeting books were produced on paper. OnBoard has streamlined the Board meeting preparation process, and I like the ability to make last minute changes to the materials, to which the users have access immediately. Using OnBoard is also much more convenient for those members who may be traveling; they can log into their Board materials on any device from anywhere. In the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, OnBoard quickly created a Zoom/OnBoard interface that allows users to long into Zoom through OnBoard, and eliminate the need for two devices. The OnBoard team reacted quickly to provide a convenient solution for a pesky problem.

The things we liked most about the software were the easy document upload feature and file organization. Right before we began using the product our shared drive went down and we lost years of important files, thankfully we have important documents printed and stored in binders, therefore we were able to scan and upload past Board Meeting documents to the program so that members/users can easily have access to documents and past meetings.

“It's very easy to use. Security is a big concern…”
It's very easy to use. Security is a big concern for us. With the information being on a controlled server, the encryption it uses, and the security requirements that exist to get into the app, that risk is greatly mitigated. We have a lot of control, and can manage users, including wiping a device or shutting it down if needed. We have unlimited space for usage.

The software is super easy to use. It has simplified the process of putting together committee packets. We have also eliminated the printing of packages by being able to view them on laptops.
