Going from large packets of hard copies to digital has saved our organization money and made our time more efficient. The secure platform allows our directors to distribute confidential meeting materials in one location and the user friendliness of the software has been essential to our Board members, now they can access the materials virtually from wherever they are, using their devices, even those that are technology challenged. > > **Cons**: I have no complaints about the software and have not heard any complaints from admin and/or members users. My only complaint would be that you have to now pay another fee for some of the upgrades (i.e. Calendar integrations, Native file storage and Topics). > > We signed the proposal for the Govenda (aka Boardookit) in March of 2020 when the Pandemic hit so we had to implement the software process to staff and Board members immediately. Customer service was outstanding, they were right there scheduling several training sessions for the admin users and Board members. The implementation went smoothly and we were able to acclimate admin users and members to the software in such a timely manner that we were right on schedule with our meetings. The combination of user friendly software, a Zoom/Govenda interface and having the board files in one location helped our staff and Board members resume business as usual during a difficult time. ----- ### "Safety Director" — 4.0/5 > **Cindy** | *1 July 2024* | Construction Software | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10 > > **Pros**: Simple to use an easy access for all other members of our board to get documents > > **Cons**: Sometimes things don’t process as fast as I would like it to > > Overall, I have to say I’m pretty happy with Govinda ----- ### "Govenda Review" — 5.0/5 > **Angie** | *23 August 2022* | Higher Education Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The Govenda software has made preparing for our board meetings much easier and more cost effective than mailing out packets to our trustees. It also provides more security of our documents and information shared with our trustees. I find the program very easy to navigate for our needs. There is other parts of the software that we will probably implement and often things we suggest as enhancements that are taken into consideration when the folks at Govenda look to improve the software. > > **Cons**: We often ask questions and make suggestions when we see issues that impact us as we navigate different parts of the program. We asked about enhancements to the survey part of the program which were implemented and helpful when doing our annual survey with our trustees. We do have issues with how we link to documents outside of Govenda in our board books for meetings, and have asked if there is a way to enhancement the program so that we can link to documents we have uploaded in the document storage part of the program. > > I can't think of any problems we encounter, but I do believe switching to the Govenda software has streamlined our processes with our trustees. ----- ### "Highly Recommend Govenda for meeting management and document sharing" — 5.0/5 > **Caroline** | *11 August 2022* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Integration and deployment was extremly easy. Navigation within the product is intuitive. This product saves so much time on preparing numerous copies of paper meeting materials and is easily accessible through the web or the app for all users. Such a time saver and very cost effective. > > **Cons**: The only issue I have had with using the product is moving agenda items with the drag and drop feature. It doesn't always "drop" the agenda item where I want it to be. I called support and they were able to immediately assist me with this issue by taking control and showing me another way to move my agenda line items. So while, this is what I like the least, it was still a positive experience with the support team. > > We have saved an extreme amount of time without having to prepare numerous copies of paper meeting agendas and attachments for distribution. Our meeting attendees and users love it because they don't have to pick up or print paper materials and they can access the materials from anywhere. The Govenda support team has always been attentive to requests for assistance and suggestions for product improvement. ----- Page: 1 / 8\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.ae/software/109813/boardbookit?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.ae/software/109813/boardbookit) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | ----- ## Structured Data
