Choosing Leading Board Portals

The questions you ask potential board portal providers will have a major impact on the efficiency, effectiveness and security of your board meetings. The right portal will provide your administrator with the security they require, reduce the time it takes to create material and offer the highest security. It allows directors with a high contribution to be fully engaged in meetings, while also providing tools to ensure a smooth flow between meetings that allow them to concentrate on governance and strategy.

Choose a vendor that is known as a provider of strong and robust features that can be scaled. They should also have a logical interface that is easy to integrate with existing systems, and offer a digital signature solution that’s effective. It is also important to check the company’s certifications in security (such as SOC 2, ISO 27001 or HIPAA), and any third-party audits they have been through.

It is also crucial that your portal is connected to your organization’s existing email system and integrates with the capabilities built-in for document storage solutions. This allows your company to communicate with its members using traditional channels instead of relying on email messages that could be monitored outside of company boundaries.

It is also important to determine if the vendor offers responsive customer support that is available 24 hours a day. The top portals have a dedicated support team that is willing to assist with any issues you or your board members have. They are also happy to provide testimonials from other organizations who have used their service.
