Avis clients sur CardBoard

Avantages

What I really like about it is ti's simplicity. It helps you to map out your projects and share it conveniently by easily changing the theme and looks.

Inconvénients

Some Functionality can be improved. It totally worked for our needs but some people may find it too simple for complicated projects.

Avantages

- Allows you to keep your story map and edit it ongoing, unlike having it on the wall where it often has to come down and all you have left is a photo
- Great for distributed teams

Inconvénients

- The lmitations are only those of doing anything on a screen, you can't step back and see the bigger picture

Avantages

I liked that it was very easy to use. Almost everything was very click and drag, which made it really easy to onboard new users who were new to story mapping.

I also really appreciated that it let me share a story map across multiple locations. I work with teams in SF and Seattle. A physical board is a nice idea but just not possible with the way that we are distributed.

Inconvénients

I had some challenges with user management. I work in a large enterprise so adding users individually was a bit of a pain and it was challenge to move users from regular viewer to user or admin roles on multiple boards.

I also found that bulk moves of cards was difficult. If I wanted to pick up several cards and put them between two existing rows that wasn't really possible without spending 8 or 10 minutes rearranging the other cards around it to keep the map coherent.

Also our org runs on-prem JIRA and I had no way to connect JIRA and confluence together, which made it nearly impossible to keep the two in sync. This is ultimately why I stopped using the product.

Avantages

The learning curve was short, so picking up CardBoard and using it was fast. Creating cards and laying them out was easy.

Inconvénients

The cards, as displayed, were much too small. In order to even include all of the information that a User Story requires for one side of the card much of the text was hidden. The back was always hidden. The grid layout was much too rigid, I had hoped for the ability to overlap cards. If these features were present they were not obvious.

Laying out cards initially was easy, but the UI resisted efforts to move cards very far (especially using a touch interface). If I needed to move a card to a different part of the board it was almost easier to delete and recreate it than move it.

Avantages

The one thing I really love is the fact that I could map out anything I want ! Any flow and which way. The multiple colours definitely help In segregating . I’ve used it as a Kanban board , for story mapping and even for roadmapping to an extent . Multi talented

Inconvénients

Lack of templates is something that bugs me at times. With a tool like cardboardit people could cod what not and use it for what not . I think it’s capable of much more.

Avantages

Easy to create cards, add details
There are few user story map tools out there, this is one of the better ones

Inconvénients

Jira integration is awful, mostly didn't work, and can only have two colors of cards.

Avantages

Numerous features to support multiple 'thinking-styles' when capturing the user story journey (colors, annotations, grid design, etc.). The integration with VersionOne was a key element for us when using any digital story mapping tool.

Inconvénients

Encountered a few bugs or hiccups when collaborating with remote participants.

Avantages

I felt that the program was very easy to use and intuitive. It was easy to create complex mockups in a short amount of time. There were many customization elements that helped accent certain parts of the design and make it easy to understand layout

Inconvénients

Not really any cons, but I think adding some additional features in terms of custom geometric shapes, lines and text would be great. That said, it's not necessarily needed when dealing with simple mock up drawings.

Avantages

I liked how it helped me spell out my user story maps and user flows without having to buy a huge whiteboard. It saved me space and time because of these reasons. I like the ease of use and how intuitive the software was.

Inconvénients

The pricing, I wasn't sure I would use it enough to make it worth the cost. If there was a unlimited free version that would give me one or two boards a month that would be nice.

Avantages

Very easy to use by adding the "post it" notes and moving them around.

Inconvénients

The shortcuts are not "windows" standards, so it takes some time to get use to them.
Also, the limited "configuration" about its integration to JIRA. it might work great for some users, but does not work for story maps.

Avantages

Web-based, so it's everywhere you need it to be.

Inconvénients

I would like a project-based pricing model, rather than a community one. Sometimes what I need is one board for a group of people who will never work together again.

Avantages

It's great to have a way to keep your sticky notes in an electronic format versus on a wall falling off after a few weeks.

We use it to create simple story boards for multiple use cases and can share with distributed teams.

Inconvénients

The copy paste functionality is horrible. Previously, you could copy a series of cards and then paste to quickly create different use cases/jouneys in the same board. It would create a copy directly over your original layouts. You could then move the duplicates where ever you wanted and quickly update. Now, when you paste, it shifts everything down and I have to spend 10 minutes shifting individual cards back up. That's my only main problem with the tool.

Avantages

It's simple and fast. Very easy to create story maps, journeys, and it's easy to slice the map into different chunks.

Inconvénients

I suppose if I had to nitpick, a 'collapse' option for 'epics' would be handy, especially when you get into huge storymaps...although that would take away the free-flowing nature of the interface.

Avantages

I enjoy how easy it is to use. The dev team has integrated great features over the years.

Inconvénients

While a lot of the features are great. There are times I wish it just remained a simple light weight tool.

Avantages

This is very easy to use. I enjoy the interface but there are some small hurdles getting set up. Nothing that would slow you down.

Inconvénients

The initial setup of the board is a little tough. It would be nice if there were more templates which showed different ways to use the software after picking a theme or something.

Avantages

Ease of use! It's very easy to create digital story maps. We use story maps for all our projects.

Inconvénients

- There's no ability to create folders. Since we create many story boards across the organization, there's no way to organize.

Avantages

I really like the UI and the ease with which cards can be created and moved around - two of the most important things in story mapping.
I wasn't able to convince my Jira admin to set up the integration but from the videos I saw it looks to do exactly what I'm looking for.

Inconvénients

I didn't like trying to rearrange all of the cards when one card in a column pushed out a bunch of others. There was a lot of multi-select drag and dropping of all other cards to fill the extra column rather than it disappearing once empty.

Avantages

Gives product managers a great tool to create and manage product maps quickly and seemlessly.

Inconvénients

Creating a new map or a thread is a bit cumbersome, especially when swimlanes and columns have to be inserted or removed.

Avantages

The ability to document system requirements and share them with remote teams and stakeholders.

Inconvénients

the integration with JIRA is two way and syncs ALL cards. We have systems that have been live for several y ears and have tens of thousands of stories. We can't use the sync. It would be great if we could use CardBoard to document a new epic and then import them into JIRA without maintaining the link or having a two-way sync.

Avantages

Its easy to use and provide a virtual story board to collaborate easily and efficiently across locations. It also helps to ensure important use cases are not missed. Provides an easy way to export and share it too.

Inconvénients

The integrations with other product managers's products where individual stories from the story board can be exported and detailed user stories can be created for engineering is lacking or not easy

Avantages

CardBoard makes it really easy to visually plan out the product roadmap and slice into different releases.

Inconvénients

Can't think of anything after the new update

Avantages

I loved how well it accomplished its core feature set. It was as close to the perfect solution to the kind of tool I was looking for for the specific tasks I was doing at the time.

Inconvénients

Unfortunately the price-point made it competitive with products like Mural and RealTime Board, both of which have a VAST array of features that CardBoard does not. If CardBoard offered feature-based pricing it'd win a lot of the time, but it simply can't compete with those other tools. So, if you're going to spend that much money, may as well get all those other features should you need them for other projects in the future.

Avantages

Easy to use and light weight. Can mimic the experience of collaborating with teammates using post-its on a white board. Best of all it can be accessed and easily manipulated.

Inconvénients

no complaints. it does what it's supposed to do.

Avantages

I liked that there was a free trial for the product. When it comes to project planning, mapping, solutions, and tracking, it's hard to find a program with ALL the bells and whistles so the free trial is helpful. The product can be deployed on mac, windows, apple, and android which is important due to employees having different devices.

Inconvénients

It didn't include a lot of the features that we needed when it comes to project solutions. Also need to make sure you have enough licensing.

Avantages

Ease of use.. Separate Private vs Public Boards.. Journeys features

Inconvénients

No legends or colour coding schema defined
