Nasdaq Boardvantage — the product formerly known as BoardVantage, sitting alongside the older Directors Desk — is a credible enterprise board portal for Nasdaq-listed public companies. If you are not already in the Nasdaq listing ecosystem, the enterprise pricing and the multi-week onboarding are buying things you may not need.
Flat $200/month. No quote required. We handle migration — no charge until your Boardvantage contract ends.
Nasdaq Boardvantage carries a Nasdaq-listed-company reputation and an enterprise feature set built over twenty years. If your corporate secretary already engages Nasdaq for listing services, IR Insight, and ESG advisory, the single-vendor story is real. If you are mid-market and just need a modern board portal, this page lays out where Boardwise is the simpler answer.

Three places we are a more sensible fit for a mid-market board than Nasdaq Boardvantage.
Boardwise is $200 per month, flat. Boardvantage's pricing page advertises "one price, no upcharges" but the price is not published — every conversation starts with a sales call. If your CFO wants to know what this costs without sitting through a demo, that gap is real.
Most Boardwise organizations are running their next meeting in the platform within days. Boardvantage onboarding is described in third-party reviews as taking weeks to a couple of months, with on-site training typical. That is reasonable for an enterprise deployment; it is more than a mid-market board needs.
Every Boardwise account is secured with a passkey: biometrics or hardware key. Boardvantage's published authentication is password plus MFA, with SSO and mobile biometric login — solid, but password-based at the primary. Passkeys remove the password.
Boardwise produces a downloadable audit package with a SHA-256 integrity digest on every written consent. Boardvantage has eSignature, voting, and minute workflows, and a strong reputation for completeness — but the written-consent record is a workflow, not a cryptographic governance artifact. For mid-market boards where due diligence will scrutinize the record, the difference matters.
If any of these describe your evaluation, Boardvantage is a real answer.
