Professional and Attentive to Personal Details

The onboarding staff was very professional and attentive to my personal details and requests. Lisa Williams did an excellent job with my Leadafi Bio, which I hope will accelerate my path to new professional opportunities. Waiting to see what matches will arise!

What a wonderful experience!

I was initially interviewed which went very, very well and I was VERY impressed with the breadth of topics covered. The write-up was presented with an invitation to edit. I commented that I couldn't have done better myself and had absolutely no edits to make!

Horrible Communication and Lack of Clarity

I can't believe that I just gave this organization money and received virtually NOTHING about how to use the system, what they would be doing to help me find a potenial Board or Advisory position. The lack of communication and expecation setting is unbelievable. I sure learned my lesson.

Great experience with onbaording!! Lisa/Leadafi was great to work with! The process overall took longer than anticipated. Once Lisa engaged things were excellent and timely.

Boardsi really turned things around for me when I thought I was ready to leave the platform. for two months I thought Boardsi ghosted me or gave generic runaround responses. Jen Swabi at Boardsi went above and beyond. She personally jumped in, listened to what had gone wrong before, and took immediate ownership of the process. Her responsiveness, genuine care, and expert guidance completely flipped a frustrating experience into a positive one. Thanks to Jen’s dedication and professionalism, I not only regained trust in Boardsi but actually came away impressed. If you’re looking for a board-advisory matching service that has people who truly step up when it matters, Jen Swabi and Boardsi are the real deal. Highly recommend.

Bad customer communication, not worth the $

The governance and compliance courses are shockingly low-quality. Sections repeat themselves verbatim, and several of the quiz questions are flat-out wrong, which makes it hard to take the training seriously.

When I enrolled, I was told they’d be connecting me with companies for potential opportunities. But after an entire month with zero communication, I assumed nothing had happened. Only when I called to cancel did I learn (for the first time) that they claimed to have “put me in front of” four companies. The lack of transparency and follow-through was deeply disappointing.

Filters you'd expect to be standard in any platform when searching through aren't available, making searching very time-consuming.

Save your money and look elsewhere.

The onboarding process was excellent. The only recommendation that I'd make is to review the AI generated Bio a little better.

Lisa Williams was a great partner!

Lisa Williams was a great partner in her communication, understanding my background and summarizing in the most professional and polished manner. Lisa took the time to carefully articulate the most important and impactful aspects of my career in a manner that would make it easy for potential companies to consider my skill set and value it could bring to their organization.

Great sales pitch, bad product

Excellent sales pitch. No leads. No contacts. Extremely high price. Hard to find the cancellation button. Charged for a month of service after I had requested to cancel. Excellent sales pitch. Underwhelming product.
