Whiteboard.chat A powerful lightweight app for brainstorming.
Rating: 8 out of 10
IncentivizedUse Cases and Deployment Scope
For brainstorming sessions, SWOT analyses, and spontaneous architectural discussions about the structure of our identity system, we typically use whiteboards. From a project management standpoint, within our scope, we are implementing the whiteboard for team retrospective notes, as well as the sticky note feature, Microsoft M365 compatibility, and a simple UI, making it a lightweight product to use for our day-to-day meetings. In addition to that, there's no license cost associated with it.
Pros
- Team collaboration feature where multiple users can contribute at the same time.
- It has wide variety of tools that can be use for creative brainstorming.
- Whiteboard.chat has no license cost associated with it.
Cons
- The UI is lightweight and works well but can be more attractive.
- The templates available are quite generic and basic; themed templates can be added.
- Whiteboard navigation is mouse-dominated, but it also has too many hotkeys that make it confusing for the user. They can be easier.
Likelihood to Recommend
Whenever the engineers & architects of my team require a brainstorming session, we normally use a whiteboard, as the enterprise does provide Miro licenses with associated. Hence, a whiteboard comes in handy when troubleshooting or discussing the requirements surrounding an application or technical infrastructure for a project. As it removes the dependency on requesting an additional Miro license, we use it. The board also loads faster than a Miro board.
