    Conceptboard
    Well suited - 1. Whiteboarding, brainstorming, designing, workshops, etc. 2. Templates - Pretty good repository of ready-to-use templates esp for project management, agile, etc. Less appropriate - 1. Anything that requires integration with existing enterprising software - limitations like no integration with Jira, Asana, etc. 2. Embedding anything related to images, videos, etc. The embed is not very smooth, it lags, and sometimes straight out doesn't work 3. Image search - Many competitors provide this feature and hence Conceptboard lacks here

    Fugu is a brilliant tool if the employee count is less when it comes to passing on messages within the organization, but it also has some cons with respect to its functioning. The calling feature used to rarely work, making it impossible to make a call when required. Also, the ios version was more prone to crashes.

    Pros
    Conceptboard
    • Great user interface that's very intuitive and easy to use. This is an important aspect of collaboration, brainstorming sessions often involve a lot of people coming from different functions who may not be too familiar with these tools
    • Allows users to see real-time changes and actions done by others from sticky notes/comments down to their cursor movements
    • Lets users add/attach files and annotate/comment on each directly on the board which skips the hassle of having to look at files using different programs/platforms and referencing on the board

    • Shortcuts to access everything.

    Cons
    Conceptboard
    • The sticky note tool glitches and behaves as if it were moving on a grid.
    • PDF upload tool does not work fast. Maybe a PDF merge algorithm could be added.
    • The selection area is not visible when dragging the eraser tool.

    Miro is a superior product with more capabilities and better suited for advanced users. We selected Conceptboard as a short-term solution that was low-cost compared to Miro but allowed users to create boards. Once users are versed in Conceptboard, they are better off using Miro which has more integration, better capabilities, and is overall a more complete product.

    Fugu is good when it comes to interacting within a small organization; otherwise, not proper working of audio/video calls and notifications not coming on time may cause you to miss out on important information. It has got all the basic employee information available, thus making it very handy and very easy to use.

    Return on Investment
    Conceptboard
    • I can say that this tool is unique since its impact on our work team has been one of the best we have ever had since it allows us to exchange ideas in one place through boards, which is more fun with the video call function

    • As it crashed down more often, productivity was affected at times.
    • Keeping a tab on one's leave, and attendance was very easy, making an employee know his balances and scheduling his work accordingly.
    • Notification, too, at times, used to not work, thus hampering productivity.
