Secure Board Management for Nonprofits

A dedicated board portal acts as an online hub for information about agendas, reminders, updates and other documents. It streamlines the entire process and ensures that governance standards are adhered to. The best solutions are created with an emphasis on the user experience and can support users of any level of comfort with technology. They also shield against cyberattacks that target nonprofits through granular permissions management and robust security features like encryption and secure app hosting.

When boards rely on conventional email or free file-sharing services it can be difficult to keep up with the changes to documents. Users can access the most recent version of their files anytime, on any device. They can even create an email address that is continually updated to share with other stakeholders. This helps everyone stay informed and also saves time for staff planning meetings.

Beyond storing and distributing documents for meetings, board materials and other documents, a good solution also makes it easy for directors to collaborate on documents online or offline by using tools that are real-time, such as laser pointer data room tools, and private annotations. It allows boards to look over action items, cast votes and oversee decisions with a central dashboard.

Finally, a great solution can provide a high-quality videoconferencing platform that works with the board portal and lets users collaborate in real-time without having to switch between applications. It should also provide a full range of first-class support to ensure that users get the most out of the product and avoid costly errors. It should also provide a variety of data storage options to ensure compliance with local legislation and the capability to export data quickly and efficiently in the format that auditors are able to use.
