At Directorpoint, we’re doing our best to make sure that we’re providing the most intuitive and useful board portal software you can find. For that reason, we periodically make changes or additions to ensure that we’re giving our users the finest experience possible. Over the last few months, we’ve been working on our website as well as our iOS iPad app. For today’s blog post, we’ll be focusing on the recent updates to the website, but check back soon for a similar post about our current app!
Here are the latest, greatest updates for the website:
1. Multi-Factor Authentication Click images to enlarge.
We strive to maintain the absolute highest level of security on a regular basis, so that’s why we’ve introduced multi-factor authentication. Admins now have the ability to require members to enter a 4-digit pin in addition to their password when logging onto the website. To enable this functionality, an admin must simply open the group’s “Settings” page, locate “General Settings,” and select “Enable Two-Factor Authentication.” Once that has been enabled, individual members will be able to create their own 4-digit pin for future logins.
We know that organizations love to measure engagement—whether internally or externally—so we have recently added an engagement report to the software. This report will show you a user’s login activity as well as his/her event activity. To locate this report, open the group’s “Settings” page and click “Engagement Report” in the top right corner of the screen.
Want to have a clearer idea about who will or won’t be attending your upcoming board meeting? We’ve added an RSVP option, so admins have a convenient way to keep track of attendance. To enable this setting, an admin can go to “General Settings” and select “Enable RSVP and Attendance Tracking.” When an event notification goes out, it will include this message: “Will you attend? Yes No Maybe”. Users can submit their responses by selecting one of those options. Admins can track their RSVPs by clicking on the title of the event and looking for the RSVP box with each user’s name and his/her response. They can also track and event’s attendance by clicking “Attendance” at the top right corner of the RSVP box.
Make sure to check back in a few days when we announce all of our newest iOS iPad app updates!
