Overall Satisfaction with Allo

We needed a simple yet powerful tool to bring all of our teachers on the same page. I took interest in Allo when I saw its Daily Standup template and I thought it is a great solution for our online Weekly Huddle meetings. Some of our teachers are experts at using modern technology but some just get by. However, all of them understand one thing: the whiteboard. Allo enables us to use the familiarity of this centerpiece of the classroom to present ideas, challenges, and problems in an intuitive and digital way.
  • team's report at Weekly Huddle
  • designing new teaching aids
  • collaboration on writing textbooks
  • more views for projects
  • more templates
  • task management options inside a canvas (deadlines, recurring etc)
  • it improved clarity regarding our teams goals
Miro is a direct competitor for Allo. It has more features and integrations but Allo appeals much more to us because of the easy-to-navigate and elegant interface, as well as speed. Infinity is an all-in-one project management app. It's ideal for detailed project management and keeping tracts of tasks (and other. items) but Allo is much better for designing and brainstorming.

Yes

Did implementation of Allo go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Allo again?

Yes

Allo is ideal for brainstorming, designing, and presenting information in a remote company. With its easy-to-use tools and modern, minimalistic, and non-intrusive interface these kinds of tasks can be done in Allo beautifully. However, it was difficult for us to have a detailed project schedule (with automatic reminders for tasks and subtasks). To sum up, Allo is a perfect digital paper canvas but currently, it lacks automation features.
