What made us choose Convene was the unparalleled meeting experience that it offers. We wanted a seamless board meeting experience and we got that from Convene. Another aspect we found very useful as an organization is how easy it is to upload documents during board meetings. It was able to fulfill our organization requirements and board members are very pleased with their experience with Convene.

Everyone is very busy and BoardPad takes the stress away of trying to find all the documents relevant to the meeting. It sends everything to the app, so you can find it straight away on your iPad. Excellent and effective navigation and sets tasks accordingly. Everyone is aware of the actions that [have] been assigned to them. Excellent piece of software that has made meetings more enjoyable.
