March question of the month

Video content is a hot topic in 2025. We want to know what type of video/recorded supporting content is most helpful to you.

Short clips? Long-form videos? Highly technical guides for experts, or easy-to-digest content that can be understood by Board users with a wide range of firsthand experience?

Short, high-impact videos that combine best practices with new features—like Signals of Foresight—would be the perfect match!

Samir Jones

Best practice
How-to
Tip of the week/month
News
Full solution overview (real projects)
Design/UX/UI principles

Generally: More hands-on, rather than "promotional"

Keep as short as possible.

@Fethi ZERARA Great idea! This is helpful as we plan future content. Thanks for your thoughts!

Holly Rieke

@Samir Jones Appreciate your perspective - thanks for sharing!

short clips with hands-on examples of basic routines for end-users and developers. what also be great are clips of more technical and complex but very fundamental stuff of board, e.g. how sparsity works, to build the bridge for new developers coming from "cell-based tools" ;)

also, if those clips have subtitles / text-infos so you are able to watch them also without sound and pause them to have a helping hand on the side without the need to use headphones all the time.

Nico Weber

For me it depends on the audience and use case.

Short Clips & Tutorials – Quick, focused videos (2–5 minutes) demonstrating specific features, tips, and troubleshooting steps are highly effective for day-to-day users who need immediate answers.
Highly Technical Guides – In-depth, expert-level videos covering backend integration, complex business rules, and advanced calculation logic are invaluable for technical users and consultants working on system implementation.
Feature Deep Dives – Long-form videos (20–40 minutes) explaining new or advanced functionalities in detail can help power users and administrators maximize the platform’s potential.
Scenario-Based Walkthroughs – Case study-driven content that walks through real-world financial planning and reporting use cases helps both business users and technical teams understand how to apply Board’s capabilities effectively.

Overall, a mix of short, practical videos for immediate help and deep-dive technical content for advanced users would be the most beneficial approach.

@Mads Meissner These are great suggestions! We will take them back to the technical teams. Thanks for your thoughts.

Holly Rieke

@Nico Weber As always, thanks for the details! This will be helpful as we take your feedback forward.

For those of you looking for quick videos and hands on practice, be sure to check out the new Board 14 for End Users modules (5 minutes each). These are perfect for your colleagues who want to create their own reports and use their Board screens in presentations on the fly.

Holly Rieke

@Mindy Waltz Thanks for the reminder for everyone!

Karry Schupp

My opinion on this is mixed. On one hand, since I still consider myself new-ish, I like the simplicity of "easy-to-digest content that can be understood by Board users with a wide range of firsthand experience?". However, as I learn more, digging into the details is needed. I have no opinion on the length of videos. Short or long depends on the content. Some things just take longer to explain. I would suggest not assuming watchers know and understand the terminology - so no shortcuts.

Holly Rieke

@Karry Schupp Thanks for adding your thoughts! I tend to agree - the subject matter will dictate the length of a video.
