As a not-for-profit with no office/staff and volunteer directors that constantly change over time, having a secure, cloud-based repository of all critical corporate records that is easily accessible to all current and future Directors avoids a multitude of problems that can occur when records are temporarily stored in volunteer Directors’ office, garage, or basement and digital records are scattered across multiple personal computers.
Having a smart repository of all critical corporate information that keeps track of all the required corporate administration activities and proactively reminds (both visually and by email) when things need to be done provides volunteer Directors with peace of mind and allows them to focus on the mission of the organization.
Storing volunteer Directors personal information on a cloud-based platform is much more secure than maintaining Directors personal information in various word processing and spreadsheet documents on personal computers and regularly sharing these files by email.

For a not-for-profit with an Executive Director and perhaps a few other staff, and likely some office space, corporate administration is not the most valuable use of their time and likely not their area of expertise.

Not all staff have access to all the Board of Directors personal information and meeting materials, and Directors do not have access to too-much detail and information about operations.
For volunteer Directors, email updates and a visual dashboard provides peace of mind that their duty of care to manage the corporate entity is being fulfilled.
