The right board management software can help your non-profit organization save time and money. If you’re having trouble with paper documents or endless emails that aren’t secure or simply want to streamline your voting and planning processes, there are a variety of ways a new system can make the world of difference.
Feature-rich board portals allow your directors to review all the tools they require all in one location which eliminates the need for papers to be organized prior to meetings. This includes the organizational policies, minutes of earlier meetings, and more. You can also store all the documents that were discussed at the meeting and votes in one easy-to-access location.
A user-friendly interface is crucial to assist users in getting up and running quickly. Select a software that is simple to use, offers an easy experience for users and is compatible with existing technology. It should be simple to navigate and allow you to create custom categories and folders for storing your files.
Nonprofit stakeholders don’t have a lot of spare time, so any efficiency in administrative tasks can be a huge impact on their ability to perform effectively. A good board portal must also meet the requirements of working teams and committees and reduce the necessity of sending documents back and forth between several people. This is possible with workflows that define participants and their responsibilities (review and editing, approve and more) and provide automatic reminders for upcoming deadlines. This allows admins to focus on strategic matters.
