Well thought-through app for whiteboard and workshop
What do you like best about the product?
It is easy and intuitive to get started with. There are many templates to start off from and while working together as ateam the interacrion is smooth
What do you dislike about the product?
It would be great to have auto translation and a good tasks list/avtion tracker
Also if a Miro board is big, it must be more easy to tag and find things in the board

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Team brainstorming, mindmaps and online collaboration simultaneously. The startup tome is short, so you get involvement rapidly also with newcomers
Miro - Versatile, complete whiteboard
What do you like best about the product?
Miro is a flexible tool, ready to help plan your day or develop your next big project idea. It has templates all built-in with some ideas already prefilled to give you some idea of how and where to start. It can link to external sites where you can draw inspiration or guidance, you can link documents and flick from page to page, mind mapping as you go. For the planning stage of the project and working through an old process, this is very useful. I find this very handy for exam prep for those of you working through exams. It's an excellent one-stop-shop for putting all your links, ideas and documentation in one place.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find the sizing can get a little tricky at times, just take care when you are starting a board as it can be zoomed in or out and the text size that you have started as could be in the 40s plus instead of the usual 10-14 points. Minor issue to be fair but it can cause a bit of frustration when you start to build your board into a bigger board and have to remember to size it to match.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Project work, study work, designing new customer project journeys, using it for time management via Kanban boards, retros etc - there is pretty much a template for anything you could need.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Do the tutorial and explore the templates
A good alternative to Miro
What do you like best about the product?
I love doing really loose wireframing in Freehand; the option to keep the shapes "sloppy" helps me focus on putting elements on the page and steers me away from getting too caught up in small details.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think Freehand is great for really quick sketches and visual notetaking, but as a UX researcher I do like having a bit more granular control over things like color and typography. A lot of times I like to use whiteboard software to create presentation-grade user/customer journey maps, so the visual qualities matter a lot.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The problem Freehand solves is the need to take notses, make diagrams, and build low-fidelity wireframes without using comprehensive-but-complex programs like Illustrator or Figma. The benefit is that Freehand is web-based, fast, and screen-share friendly.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Definitely one of the top whiteboarding apps out there.
Freehand is liberating.
What do you like best about the product?
Freehand makes collaboration very easy with my team because we can view each others comments in real time. This creates a conversation for ease of developmentation.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish more team members would work with Freehand. We could better discuss projects across the team. I think people are afraid to put down their comments.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are correctly solving problems that the business side can see the actual path a user will experience. I have noticed a marked decrease in time spent on a project.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would say the best use is when you have many hands looking at a project and want to share ideas in real time.
The whiteboard to top all white boards!
What do you like best about the product?
I love that FreeHand is ever-expanding. You are not limited to the size of a piece of paper. It can all link together and live as a working document.
What do you dislike about the product?
Switching between selecting and dragging was a little clunky the first time using it. However, I was able to get the hang of it super quick.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were in the early stages of brainstorming a project. We needed to get lots of ideas down and start to visualize it as a remote team. InVision helped us do that. Took whiteboarding to a whole new level.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you love to collaborate with your team or your clients, this is the platform for you.
The best white board experience I've come across!
What do you like best about the product?
I often need a whiteboard where I can express my thoughts with complete freedom. I use Notion and Loom to put together formal proposals. I'm not aware of a competitor. I've just stuck with InVision because of the infinite white board.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like to create tables/grids easily and undo mistakes easier. There are instances where I would like to make text bigger within a box and it can be difficult to do.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm able to mind map things without any constraints. Connect different ideas together and just think more in line with how my mind works. My ability to demonstrate and show ideas to the larger team is improved.
InVision is a great resource for mood-boarding creative projects.
What do you like best about the product?
You can see other people's cursors in real-time. It makes communication that much easier.
What do you dislike about the product?
I can't think of anything. It functions, great. No hiccups or bugs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Collaborating on graphic design projects.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's great for collaborative creative projects.
It's a nice creative tool!
What do you like best about the product?
It's instantly show the work results between your team members.
What do you dislike about the product?
If it can make the accessibility thing easier that will be great!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Show the UX work design and concept.
Very helpful as a high-level tool, but has strong competition...
What do you like best about the product?
That it is very simple and stripped of the many capabilities other design tools have, but also the templates are really great.
What do you dislike about the product?
That it is continually updated and things are constantly changing but I don't always get updates on what when I've come back to it - but to be clear the updates are usually good, just a who moved my cheese kind of thing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Being able to create visual representations easily and collaboratively. Our team is in the middle of piloting figma, so without that we don't have a better collaborative tool or workspace. The benefit to being able to share and work on things together is great.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The templates are great!
Freehand is a good tool for virtual white boarding/wireframing and collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
I like that everyone on my team has an Invision account and can access Freehand and collaborate with each other.
Its pretty simple to onboard new users into learning how to use the product.
Its pretty simple to onboard new users into learning how to use the product.
What do you dislike about the product?
Invision Freehand can be somewhat glitchy. It will zoom in randomly or sometimes I get an error "Unable to create a Freehand document. Try again later." Little things like this add up to big time sucks and fustration.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I primarily use Freehand to draw out user flows to share with my team. We also use it to combine information from user feedback systems. The templates are helpful when accomplishing these things.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I'd recommend using it along with other invision products for a smoother experience.
