Governance of the board is based on the regularity of meetings. Board meetings whether they are bi-monthly, quarterly, or even monthly, enable leaders to do important work within the context of annual strategic responsibilities such as policy and compliance budgets, audits and elections, and appointments.

A good board portal lets board members and administrators to access meeting materials, documents, and other documents from anywhere on any device. This makes it simple for the entire board to plan and conduct productive meetings.

In addition to being a great tool to prepare for meetings board portals can also be an easy and secure method to share documents and keep them. With centralized storage of documents, directors no longer have to search through a sea of email attachments in order to find what they need. The best portals for board meetings include advanced security features that make it difficult for criminals to gain unauthorized access to sensitive information. This includes 256-bit AES encryption, multiple-factor authentication, and GDPR compliance.

There are a myriad of board management software available on the market but not all of it is all created equal. When choosing the right solution for your company it is crucial to take your time and evaluate all possibilities. During demonstrations, you should ask prospective vendors about their ease-of-use features and how to start. You don’t want to spend an inordinate amount of time learning how to use a brand new tool, especially in the event that your board is pressed for time.

Consider the pricing model of the vendor and whether or not they charge additional fees for administrators, users training, or storage of data. Some also offer a free trial period to help you determine if the solution is the right one for your company.
