Overall, the simplicity of OnBoard is it's strongest feature. With minimal training, our admins were able to quickly begin creating meetings and board packs. Simply put, OnBoard is a highly effective system that does exactly what we need it to do, without a mass of unnecessary features. It's also worth commenting on the strength of Passageways customer support. Our account manager worked very closely with us through every step of the implementation process, helping us with the initial setup of the system as well as training for our admins. Passageways also setup a number of training sessions for our Trustees, ensuring they were completely comfortable using the platform before go-live, which has lead to a high level of user adoption.
"The first meeting we had, the experience was not of that of a technology, the experience was a board meeting. Directors didn’t even realize that we didn’t have to put any effort into learning OnBoard, even administrators put very little effort into learning. We were just like Holy Cow, everybody’s already got their meeting set up. It just started happening."
"All documents are in one spot and no one has to remember who emailed what or where any document has been placed. They can quickly reference the one location easily. I can't imagine ever going back to using paper, and how much time it took to do that."
"This software is very easy to use. Our Board of Director's average age is 67 and they had no problem learning how to use and retrieve reports for their viewing prior to a Board Meeting."
"The Association tested several Board portals and ultimately decided to select Passageways OnBoard because of its ease of use for Association staff and for our Board members. The collaborative functions of OnBoard were also important to us. MBA's staff can work together to plan and produce Board meetings and materials online and then quickly notify our Board when the materials are ready for their review. The interface is simple to navigate and there are plenty of extra features that make it easy for our Board members to go paperless."
"Easy interface to navigate which is a great use of my time."
"Although OnBoard is the only software I've used for portal reporting, it has fulfilled our needs perfectly. There have been several upgrades to the software since first using and the upgrades have made using and navigating even easier. So far, OnBoard is doing everything we could possibly need."
"It is easy to create board books and allows board members a secure portal to view board materials from any device."
"Creating the board book is simple and great for last minute updates."
"User friendly and easy to navigate. Very efficient."
"The ease of use of OnBoard and being able to train others will minimal difficulties has been incredible. It has also become a very valuable tool to store all of our Board of Trustees meeting information and resources. No more paper copies! OnBoard has made this whole process so smooth and seamless and the support from our account rep, [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN], is the icing on the top. She is always there to help, train, coach, etc."
"I liked how it compiled a schedule and kept me on track with my meetings and seminars throughout the conference."
"The importing of agenda's and the drag and drop feature of uploading files."
"Ease of use, record keeping; signatures/approvals all in one local."
"I train and set users up in this system. I like how it has helped those staff who use it on committees save TONS of paper. It helps to keep their meetings organized and allows users to view the agenda/items ahead of time to better prepare for their meeting."
