Diligent Community Reviews & Product Details

Board Docs is a clean, simple program that is easy to use for our school board, as well as for myself. I can duplicate agenda items from previous agendas into drafts. I can arrange sensitive information in different levels. It is easy to change settings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The search option is not very helpful, it is difficult to find what you are searching for and the way it is presented is a bit overwhelming. I wish a list would appear- avoid the large white boxes. A sorting option would be fabulous! Having a theme, customizable option for the user would be fun. We see gray A LOT... Having the ability to enter time frames other than entering them in the agenda subject would help. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Love having all our board documents in one location. The ability to search through all documents and policies is a blessing. I also like that you can search other Board Docs users agenda items to get help on wording, when you get stuck. :) We love the online voting feature, makes generating minutes easy.

The only dislike is not having an electronic second option in the online voting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I am old enough to remember the old days of putting together and mailing or hand delivering packets to school board members before every meeting. I love that you can post all of the documentation on Board Docs and that there are three different levels (we have our set up for Public, Admin. and BOE members and only BOE members).

Too easy to grab an agenda item and place it somewhere else. I have done this in looking at past meetings at an agenda item and inadvertently moving it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the lack of paper. I have gone from having between 500-800 pieces of paper for every board packet, prior to BoardDocs, to now only having 10-20 pieces of paper in my board packets, I only keep pages that need a signature. Everything else is kept in my electronic file. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I dislike how easy it is for other people to accidentally move things around. I know it's due to their level of editing, and there are only a few people who have this level, but it has caused problems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One of my favorite things about BoardDocs is how it houses all of the agendas, packets, and minutes for all of our board meetings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One thing I dislike is sometimes the formatting for agenda items and minutes can be confusing to deal with since it's a web based platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

BoardDocs allows for transparency, elimination of paper waste and a great tool for a productive paperless Board meeting. Since using BoardDocs our Board meetings are conducted in a timely manner, allowing the community to participate and obtain detailed information and actions taken during the meeting.

How user friendly BoardDocs is and how easy it is to add or move agenda items around. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Going to college for Administrative Secretarial Science, the focus was on making everything look professional. Formatting your minutes to look professional isn't always easy.

Also, having to go into each section to print a hard copy is inconvenient. I always print a hard copy in case the power goes out or something happens and the Board Agenda can't be accessed electronically. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love the ease of submission of items and the workflow process ensures that everyone that needs to see and approve the item does. Publishing the agenda is extremely easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The fact that you can't copy and paste from a Google Doc without the font copying over into bold and not being able to remove the bold once you paste the information into BoardDocs is annoying. Information has to put into Word before it can be copied into BoardDocs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
