Board is an intelligent planning platform that blends many features into a user-friendly environment. The system can be used on-premise or in the cloud via a hybrid model and allows for full scalability, as well as support for both writing and reading for all data models. This allows users to develop and deploy powerful planning applications on a single infrastructure with the lowest operating costs.
A board, in contrast to an outline of the strategic goals of your team over weeks, quarters, and months, shows the work which is being performed by the team at present. The work is represented as cards on the board that can be moved around the columns that correspond to their status, e.g. from to be done to to do. The cards are typically sorted by priority, placing the most important at the highest.
The intelligent data federation feature allows you to connect any planning software to Board which includes Excel spreadsheets. This lets you create a single view of data for multidimensional analyses and ad hoc inquiries. You can also change the dimensions at will and instantly re-aggregate your data. This flexibility puts Board light years ahead of competitors.
Modern board portals allow team members to collaborate seamlessly, regardless of where they are, or what device they’re using. The process of preparing for meetings is fast and simple, with agenda items being easily dropped and dragged into draft meeting minutes. During the meeting, voting and approvals can be carried out safely in the portal with just a single click, and agenda items can be transformed into tasks that can be distributed to participants, allowing them to continue working between meetings.
