“While I know our company has not used the software…”
While I know our company has not used the software to its' full capacity, I like that it makes procedures easier. For instance, the calendar that I load our board packet to each month -this feature has taken hours away from what I used to spend doing this task.

OnBoard provides us with a place to put important documents so all Board members have access to them and we can send out agendas prior to Board meetings with all the reports attached so Board members can be prepared when they arrive.

“After looking at a number of companies, we chose OnBoard…”
After looking at a number of companies, we chose OnBoard because it seemed the easiest to introduce to our board members, most of whom had never used a portal, while also having relative ease of use on the back side for school administrators. This has proven to be true and in less than a full year, most board members are getting the hang of it. As administrators, there are still things to learn. Passageways is doing a good job of continuously improving and integrating customer suggestions. There are more robust (aka more costly) apps out there, but since our trustees are all local, this has met our needs nicely.

“I wish I could rank OnBoard's customer service higher than…”
I wish I could rank OnBoard's customer service higher than 5 stars! I couldn't be happier with their training and customer support. Their top level folks have taken the time to have conversations with some of our board members for input. The system is seamless when board members come with their IPads or use our tablets. Preparing for board meetings has never been easier from a staff perspective and we are definitely saving time, money and trees by using OnBoard.

Time saved rather than printing and putting binders together. Money saved, no paper or ink. Time saved getting the information to members electronically. Administrative side is easy to use with the drop and drag functions.

“The feature that really sold this new board portal to…”
The feature that really sold this new board portal to our Board of Trustees was the easy access to the AGB Effective Committee series and other AGB board materials. Eureka College has purchased these reference guides in limited quantities in the past because of our limited budget. Now all our board members have access to these materials through the portal.

Love the ease of use, once you figure it out. I appreciate the ability to move the agenda around during the meeting and have everyone following 100%. I really like that I can see the board documents on any of my devices, laptop, iPhone or android device.
