Ayoa Software
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

Cons
Ayoa Software
  • 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.

  • A few steps are needed to mark a label for each customized branch.
  • Branch customization, such as line width and style, could be improved.
  • Customization, such as a different shape of nodes, would be good.

The support around a bug in the tool which prevented the correct printing of diagrams. Support came back after a few days, and there was no workaround. Eventually, the bug was fixed in a future release. The company does not pay much attention to user forums. With better support and plugin mechanism for user contributions, the product would be more convincing.

Alternatives Considered
Ayoa Software
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

Return on Investment
Ayoa Software
  • 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.
