Independent Board Member in Engineering at Swaziland Building Society (201-500 employees employees)

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I use Diligent One Platform for dealing with my Board duties, I get my Board pack through Diligent One Platform and am able to read and make notes in preparation for my Board meetings. Diligent One Platform also allows me to search backdated documents for reference. This helps make my work in the Board much easier without needing to spend a lot of time paging through documents and making notes on the side. The platform enables Management to provide the needed information, minutes, graphs, reports and other items required for preparing for meetings. The only setback is not being able to upload excel files

Pros

Keeps updates of board packs and one can track changes
Allows versatility moving from Board to Sub Committees
Provides ability to get old board packs for reference
Allows management to provide information required by Board and shared to everyoine simultaneously

Cons

Handling spreadsheets
Allow sharing of notes made, example to help with correcting minutes
allow easy typing of text rather than making hand notes

Return on Investment

Time reduction
document safety
archiving

Additionally, its automated audit trails ensured seamless compliance tracking during our internal ISO audit and avoided firefighting for documents.

It helped to secure communication channels with confidential discussions and document sharing among team members and leadership.

Cons

Training required for team members to effectively use the platform.
Some customization options are limited and require further investments to enable.
Integration with other ERP software and audit tools.

Initial investment cost is very high ROI is mainly soft savings.
We're able to better utilize resources and their time in different activities.

The robots are great for us to analyze data across all of our locations.
I especially love the questionnaires and reporting features. We have been able to obtain valuable feedback for future projects and improvements for our own department.

It has been frustrating when the interface has changed as it gets new ownership and having to adjust and find where different tasks have moved.
Instances where it has been rather laggy or deleted information we had input.
