We use idea notes to brainstorm ideas between staff members, collaborate also between customers for feedback on products that we launch whether it is in the SaaS space or eCommerce space. A beautiful platform to seamlessly collect ideas from staff, partners, and customers all gelled into one hub accessible by all. Very easy (and fun) to use.

We almost start very small in using it, because we ourself did not know what way we will have to go. But now as we reach a point where the market fit is in sight we focus on only a few number of things. We use it to define our product first without official access. We have to address the product clear, and ideanote is good to keep in the "zone". The main problem is to make pain easy, packed as solution in a product, and not talk about any features. This is the focus we have right now with this very clear application.

Ideanote is being used as a core part of our business model to attract new clients. The ease of use and straightforward UX helps us to attract new customers, where we then upsell design sprints and venture development services.

We use Ideanote for our internal and external projects. With Ideanote we can create campaigns that our stakeholders and colleagues love. Ideanote is used for idea generation and innovation challenges, and it's a vital part of the internal tools we use to validate and track our progress in all sorts of areas (product development, customer happiness, etc.).

I had the idea of using it for students that preparing for exams. That way we can have conversation below attachments that correspond to Exam Assignments and that will be only viewable by appropriate students. Notification on status will also being recorded for each assignment.
I would also love to see node-graphs for ideas of a mission as future feature additions and also a mobile app as well.

Ideas are what feed innovations, and we’re glad to have found a tool that allow us to track, rank, and prioritize the best of all ideas. Ideanote is a very simple tool with all the features you will ever need. We mainly use it internally at the moment and we plan to use it to develop new products or to improve our current offering by collecting user feedback in the future.

We currently use Ideanote across the whole company to collect, prioritize, and measure ideas. There are two primary ways Ideanote can be used: to collect opinions internally across team members or to collect suggestions publicly from clients or suppliers. Our most frequent use case is internal.

The problem Ideanote solves for us is that our previous brainstorming exercises often yielded few results because

  • Ideas are not tracked and frequently scattered throughout various places, both online (e.g., Google Docs, Slack, Notion) and offline (e.g., Post-it notes)
  • Ideas are not recorded promptly and adequately, so we can't take immediate actions on them.
  • Since contributing ideas doesn't result in action, many of our team members feel discouraged to contribute improvement ideas and refrain from getting creative or thinking outside the box about business challenges.

Ideanote solves this problem by having a centralized, well-designed workspace to collect ideas and engage our team members, enabling us to take actions on their contributions and measure their impact.

The intended use for Ideanote is to organize the idea collection process from a variety of sources, both across the whole organization and the general public, and allow the very process of idea collection to generate community engagement, self-awareness, and reveal key players in the creative ecosystem, both within and without our organization, among those interested in our mission. The business problems that it addresses obviously revolve around innovation management and having a platform that not only structures the creative process and collects it in one place, but provides transparency to management and the team through the analytics it generates but also incentives for participation via the potential for recognition through intelligent features like the "Hall of Fame" of idea contributors.

Ideanote is used by all departments across the organization. It sure makes it easy and productive for our team to collect, share, develop, and act on ideas that streamline processes with evident progress. Its structured design and instant ideation features are what make Ideanote stand out from the competition. We've ultimately gone from hatching and collecting new ideas to acting upon such ideas, thereby helping our team and our clients, drive all missions forward.
