Board portal software pricing: considerations for Canadian boards
When comparing the cost of board portal software, it’s important to get customized quotes to truly compare. Be sure to consider your goals, all the features you may need, how many users and committees will need access, and the quality of support your board will need – all for a fair price.
We believe that good governance should be simple, with no surprises on pricing. Aprio’s subscription starts at 20 user licenses – any number of which can be administrators — and unlimited committees at no extra cost. Our pricing includes initial one-on-one training for administrators and directors and any ongoing training you may need to set your board up for success.
As the only board portal software company in Canada, our pricing makes us an even more attractive choice. That’s because Canadian boards pay with Canadian dollars. Many Canadian customers remark on how being invoiced in CAD eliminates the frustration of budgeting with fluctuating, and often high, exchange rates.
