OnBoard: The Most Reviewed, Most Trusted Board Management Software

Reading Time: 6 minutes

In a market that never stands still, leadership isn’t measured by a single snapshot. It’s defined by momentum, customer trust, and the lasting impact made across the full spectrum of the industry. While leadership grids may shift from season to season, true category dominance is proven by comprehensive validation — from review platforms, customers, and independent analysts alike.

With over 2,600 verified customer reviews spanning the most trusted software marketplaces — including G2, Capterra, SourceForge, GetApp, and more — OnBoard stands as the most reviewed and most trusted board management software in the world. No other board management provider comes close.

This collective voice from our global user base represents unmatched real-world validation of OnBoard’s impact. This is more than just numbers. It’s proof of trust, performance, and consistent delivery at scale.

Momentum Matters — And Ours Is Unmatched

Innovation and velocity are key drivers of long-term leadership. OnBoard’s sustained investment in product development and customer success has propelled us into the forefront of the governance tech category:

Quarterly feature releases based directly on customer feedback
Dedicated success managers for every account
An ever-growing global user community

That’s why we were named a G2 Momentum Leader for Summer 2025 — a recognition of our ability to deliver not just today’s solution, but tomorrow’s vision for smarter boardrooms.

Leadership Reaffirmed — And Expanded

While grid placement is one lens, it is not the definitive statement of market leadership. Real customers, across all segments, in every major marketplace, have spoken — and they’ve spoken in record numbers. No other board management provider comes close to the volume, quality, and breadth of praise that OnBoard consistently earns.

As we look ahead to the second half of 2025, our focus remains crystal clear:

Build the smartest, most intuitive governance platform in the world
Help boards lead with confidence, clarity, and control
Support every customer like they’re our only customer

The Bottom Line

Leadership isn’t lost with a badge. It’s earned every day: with every customer’s experience, every problem our features solve, and every decision made in the boardrooms that are powered by OnBoard.

With more than 2,600 verified reviews and the highest overall satisfaction rating in the category, OnBoard remains the gold standard for board management.

Thank you to our customers for continuing to trust us. We’re proud to lead with you, grow with you, and build the future of modern governance — together.

Why Switch To OnBoard: Nasdaq Boardvantage was VERY expensive, their product is clunky and difficult to navigate, and their customer service -- which we needed often -- was unresponsive. They have been flogging a product they developed a long time ago to get the most money out of it.
