I appreciate the affordability for our small nonprofit; without sacrificing quality. > > **Cons**: Any expense is challenging for us; so I appreciated that Govenda was available to us at no cost in the beginning. Now, we've had to add a budget expense to ensure that we have it available going forward. > > Our experience has been very positive. On the rare occasions when we've had a problem/challenge, the staff have been very accessible and responsive. ----- ### "My worklife is soooo much easier\!" — 5.0/5 > **Jacki** | *30 September 2019* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: 1) "Cloning" meetings and agendas 2) Emailing right from the site to our Board members 3) All of our Board members took to the site at the first meeting 4) Presentations are done right from Bookit now instead of working back and forth with Powerpoint and printed materials; we just project Bookit to the screen 5) No more dealing with Adobe; which is not always user friendly with Excel documents > > **Cons**: 1) Agenda formatting; but we have a workaround; I wish there was a way to reduce/increase font size, margins, and the ability to put spacing inbetween agenda items. > > The best experience -- right from the beginning -- is the support. If we can't figure it out on email, someone calls and we set up an appointment to get it right. Everyone has been friendly from the very beginning. ----- ### "Review" — 4.0/5 > **Peter** | *16 August 2022* | Government Relations | Recommendation rating: 4.0/10 > > **Pros**: It help us manage our meeting and send reminders to us before the meeting starts > > **Cons**: Some features are difficult to find and sometimes users become frustrated > > Great ----- ### "Best Online Portal\!" — 5.0/5 > **Phyillicia** | *1 October 2019* | Legal Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Ease of Use Security PDF Sharing capabilities > > **Cons**: I don't really have any cons just a suggestion about the time entry on the agenda if it could update with the hour and minutes. For example if I place 10 minutes unto the time frame it would put 9:00am-9:10AM on the agenda. We manually type this out but other than that this system is great\! > > BoardBookit has given us the tools to distribute our board materials and documents; not only electronically but safely\! The system has also allowed our managers to E sign materials before deadlines. It has truly been as great addition to our organization. ----- ### "Govenda Makes Board Management Enjoyable and Simple." — 5.0/5 > **Angou** | *18 March 2026* | Nonprofit Organisation Management | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Govenda has an intuitive interface that is very easy to use which makes board management simple and productivity.
