What it is
Boardon provides a branded portal for introducing and onboarding new employees, available on the web and through its API. Administrators can build timeline-based plans with tasks, learning content, reminders, push messages, uploaded files, quizzes, surveys, articles, and linked videos. Invitations can arrive by email or text and open on a new employee’s phone or by email. Employees can download onboarding documents, update them, and upload them again for administrator review. Managers, recruitment officers, and HR staff can follow progress through reports and statistics. Companies can apply their name, logo, and colors to the portal; Enterprise users can also change its CSS. Administration is listed in English, with German, French, Spanish, Dutch, Swedish, Danish, Norwegian, and Finnish among the available languages; more can be added by contacting Boardon. The free account supports one active user and one administrator, with five text messages per month and 10 MB of storage. It is removed after 12 months of inactivity. Paid plans start at $58 a month, are based on active users, and require at least a three-month purchase. The service is hosted in Sweden with global reach.
