    It's great for small to medium business where you need to have tracked communication and conversations that can have milestones, deadlines, supporting files, and the ability to pass the task around to multiple individuals for completion. It's not exactly useful but with some work and maintenance can be used for issue tracking and work delegation

    Ready to use template makes Stormboard very easy to use and gives a seamless experience to the user. It is very useful when brainstorming ideas, and solutions for a particular use case. It sometimes gives solutions to the problems we might not have thought about yet. The on-the-go whiteboard gives us a blank slate for new ideas and more collaborations.

    Cons
    OpenGenius Ltd
    • The administrative side of Ayoa is very limited.
    • If a user accidentally deletes a board or leaves the company, it's a bit of a pain to get that data back.
    • User administration is difficult and if a use who is invited selects the wrong link after registration they may get locked out of your invite.

    • Sometimes difficult to find items on the board if they're not in the centre
    • Zooming in and out can often mean things get overlooked
    • Occasionally uploaded documents vanish

    I've just started evaluating Planner with out recent upgrade to Business Premium but I'm finding that it could easily be used to replace Ayoa and would help offset the cost from the MS365 Business Premium upgrade by replacing another SaaS cost. It does almost all the same things, integrates in our already existing MS365 ecosystem, and is backed by Microsoft... it's just not as 'pretty' as the bubble boards

    I use Stormboard for coordination because it seems easier to use than the rest. In terms of courses, we choose the software depending on our course objectives and how tech-savvy we believe the prof and audience are. Miro is more complete, I believe, it has a ton of features and templates.

    Return on Investment
    OpenGenius Ltd
    • Communication and follow-up has gone way up since we started using Ayoa.
    • Accountability has also improved considerably since we started with Ayoa.
    • It has unfortunately caused some burn out on some users because it had made it much easier to 'punt' work over to someone else without any prior communication.

    • + affordable collaboration tool
    • - not intuitive enough --> other tools were preferred
    • - not flexible enough (section feature was a bummer)
