Boardwise comparisons · Starting at $200/month

Compare Boardwise to your current board portal

Eight direct, sourced comparisons — six against other board-portal vendors, two against the tools most boards actually use (SharePoint + Outlook, or Drive + Dropbox). We tell you where Boardwise wins and where each alternative might be the better fit. No marketing fluff.

Flat $200/month for the entire organization. Migration handled — no charge until your current contract ends.

Why we wrote these

Most board-portal comparison content is written by vendors trying to sell you something. The pages below are honest about where Boardwise wins (price transparency, passkey authentication, cryptographic audit trail, modern UX), and equally honest about where another vendor is the better fit (enterprise GRC, AI minute drafting, deep nonprofit reporting, public-company audit-committee tooling).

Every claim is sourced. Every pricing number is dated. Every link in the comparison tables goes back to the vendor's own published page where possible. If you find a factual error, tell us and we will correct it.

Other board portals

Six comparisons against the named vendors corporate secretaries actually evaluate.

Still on email and a shared folder?

The single largest segment of mid-market and nonprofit boards does not use a competitor portal at all — they use SharePoint and Outlook, or Drive and Dropbox. Here is why that creates governance risk, and what to do about it.

Where Boardwise fits

Read this before you read any of the comparisons. It will save you time.

Boardwise is the right answer if…

  • You are a mid-market organization — roughly 50 to 5,000 employees — with one or two entities and a corporate secretary who wants modern software directors actually open.
  • Predictable, published pricing matters to your CFO. $200 per month flat, unlimited users, no per-seat fees, no annual contract.
  • You want passkey-default authentication and a cryptographic (SHA-256) audit trail on written consents — included on every account, not gated to a higher tier.
  • You value direct access to the team that built the product over named account managers and support tiers.
  • You are migrating from a current portal and would like the migration handled, with no charge until your existing contract ends.

Boardwise is probably not the right answer if…

  • You are a Fortune 500 with thirty subsidiary boards and need enterprise GRC, entity management, and internal-audit modules alongside the portal — look at Diligent.
  • AI-drafted minutes and document summarization are a must-have today — look at BoardEffect's GovernAI, Govenda's Gabii, or Nasdaq Boardvantage AI.
  • You need D&O questionnaires, board assessments, and skills-matrix tracking inside the portal — look at OnBoard's Ultimate tier, Govenda, or Nasdaq's joint Directors Desk / Boardvantage modules.
  • You are already deep in the Nasdaq listing ecosystem and want a single-vendor story across listing, IR, ESG, and the board portal — look at Nasdaq Boardvantage.
About these comparisons

Each child comparison page includes its own sourced "Sources & further reading" section. Pricing for vendors that do not publish public prices (Diligent, OnBoard, BoardEffect, Govenda, Nasdaq Boardvantage) is reported from third-party sources — the Vendr marketplace, G2 reviews, Capterra, and the Aprio Board Portal competitive analyses — and dated at last review. Boardwise pricing is published at boardwise.co/#pricing and can always be verified there. If you spot a factual error in any of these comparisons, email [email protected] and we will fix it.
