We love StoriesOnBoard!
Pros
- Easy to add, remove, and move cards that represent different parts of the user experience (either external or internal users).
- Flexible with different views, zooming in, zooming out, hiding detail cards, etc.
- Can add an infinite number of viewers without having to pay more.
Cons
- It's perfect for our use case, I don't have any real complaints!
Return on Investment
- StoriesOnBoard (and story mapping in general) creates a low-cost visual method of aligning on high-level business and technical requirements early in a project and provides an ongoing reference as the project progresses. Having this alignment is critical for the later stages of the project.
Great tool to keep external teammates in the loop
Pros
- User role management
- Jira integration
- Keyboard shortcuts
- Filtering by personas
Cons
- Integration for NextGen projects
Return on Investment
- Specs are clear from the start
- Budget is more likely to be extended because of the better overview on the scope
