Collaborating, Sharing, Interacting

We use Lucidspark for sprint planning and quarterly roadmap planning. We also use this for coming up with cross-team initiatives in an interactive way. We started with talking through what needs exist through our supplier partners eyes. We then grouped those needs under related sections. The teams then commented on/reacted to sticky notes with emojis in order to rank ideas. We then created a prioritization matrix in order to solidify our roadmap.

I did not know that there was a Google Drive integration, but I know that this would be useful to the organization and eliminate time-consuming input (copying over text from Google Docs). We have not utilized integrations much, so I cannot speak to this. One additional integration that would be helpful and used by my team would be with Jira. We have begun using Lucidspark for backlog grooming and sprint planning, so manually typing in ticket names can be time consuming. Being able to pull in ticket names as sticky notes automatically would be incredibly helpful.

Lucidspark performance has been solid so far. We have had a working session with 10+ people at a time and have never had any functionality issues. Working remotely can be challenging at times in terms of collaboration and interactivity. Using this for meetings has been such a game changer. It allows people to share their opinions and give input into project ideas/prioritization, which could be challenging in a regular meeting with multiple people. It keeps people remain engaged whereas they could zone out or be multitasking in traditional meetings without ever giving their input.
