Stormboard

Stormboard is a practical digital collaboration application for our team and many teams in the organization. We as a team utilize Stormboard whiteboard during our initial stage of a project to have a design solution. Being a team of developers, BAs, and Product owners, Stormboard is very useful for troubleshooting and overseeing any kind of issue that we can get during the project tenure.

• It has ready to use templates for almost all requirements.
• Great platform for online collaboration/brainstorming within the team.
• It can be used anywhere anytime, so the ideas can just flow and be shared on Stormboard.

• It has increased the productivity to a great extent for the organization.
• It has helped in personal growth as well as encouraged me to give more ideas and various solutions.
• It has definitely brought more business to the organization.

We use Stormboard to program, manage and document all of our meetings and reunions that we have, either in person or on line. The ability to separate key partnerships, key activities and their relationships gives us the ability to quickly review and redesign all of our deliverables that come out of our meetings, with suppliers and with our employees. Also, having our cost structure, material or people, visible at all times helps us to keep our expenses in line.

• Management of tasks and meetings for the whole company
• Ability to separate meetings between users, client and providers
• Web app is great and easy to use, either on an external monitor or using your laptop
• Present all the info for a meeting at the same time

• Ability to integrate all of our external users and clients into one solution instead
• Reduced the amount of "follow up" emails we have to send, the system does it for you
• Went from one person in charge of managing our meetings to having each of our managers do it themselves, saving us a position that wasn´t really needed
• Since we are a small company, having this level of "smarts" behind every meeting we do has let us appear that we are actually a bigger company with more people.

I personally use Stormboard to coordinate workshops and classes that we offer at the institution. The software makes it easy because we can all collaborate at the same time. We also use it during the classes to make them more interactive and collaborative. I train professors about how to include Stormboard in their classes and students usually like it.

• Organize/coordinate course offering
• Templates are very useful
• we love the chat feature

• We received positive feedback from students once we started using it
• Some professor are very happy trying it out because it is easy to use
• I dedicate less of the days to coordinating courses because we can collaborate on one board

I use Stormboard as a tool to help organize ideas in the innovation projects

conducted by my team. It is a support tool used in brainstorming

sections made with different teams of the company. It helps us to unify

all the information collected and create diagrams of the workflows used

by each area of the company. With this information in hand, we start the

open innovation process, where we look for disruptive solutions

available in the market that can help to improve the mapped workflows.

• Whiteboard creation.
• Ability to create and manage teams with different collaborators.
• Ability to create and share templates with collaborators inside my company.

• Reduced project completion time.
• Increased the assertiveness of information collected at the beginning of projects.
• Increased the participation of collaborators on online meetings.

We use it for the retros of our scrum meetings. It helps us to collect feedback from participants and group them very easily into themes. By doing this we enhance our productivity because the retros are essential for our productivity. We also may introduce it in our daily-stand ups to assess how each team member is progressing in time and what the blockers are.

• Multi person
• Easily distinguishable notes from different people
• Clarity

• It makes teamwork on distance possible, that means we can save on traveling
• We can use it in daily standup to make cooperation more smooth which is essential for success
• We work more effectively by having good retros and use the feedback to improve
