Overall Satisfaction with ElaBoard
My department uses ElaBoard for various use cases; roadmap planning, architecture presentations, retros, etc. We need a communal space where every person can contribute to the plan at the same time. ElaBoard has been the immaculate venue to accomplish this cooperation. The various features, like the wide range of templates, freehand drawing functionality, and confidential commenting, are an added advantage. It's a product manager's dream.

- Quickly drives you through set up
- It enables you to think through diverse aspects of tribulation and examine those items as a unit
- Promotes and facilitates dialogue
- It helps a manager walk a team via the problem-solving strategy
- There are too many steps to share your board with users not already signed up
- Cost; for smaller organizations it's great but 150+ people really start to add up fast
- It's 2022, improved accessibility is a must
- Drag and Drop
- Collaborative Editing
- Marker Colors
- Drawing

- I heard the back office used it to plan our holiday party last year but I wasn't part of that project. Seems cool tho

Using ElaBoard
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
Like to use Relatively simple Easy to use Technical support not required Well integrated Consistent Quick to learn Convenient Feel confident using Familiar | None |
- Reformatting sections without having to resize text
- Sharing board outside of my organization
- changing permission levels on who can do what within a specific board.
- Adding images can be hard because they upload at the original size which is sometimes huge. I wish there was a small, medium, large, actual choice like in gmail.
