  ### 7. Excellent visualisation & cooperation tool

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jelmer K. | Lead Agile, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 02, 2021

**What do you like best about iObeya?**

The structure of iObeya (boards belong to a room) and the pricing structure (you pay for a room, not for (dormant) users sets it apart from the competition. 

Also, the reference to physical boards (in size & behaviour) helps user adoption. 

The quality & responsiveness of the support people at iObeya are excellent.

**What do you dislike about iObeya?**

The JIRA integration is not yet mature and is missing some features that are quite essential. Also, for some settings (training/workshop) the "fixed size" boards are limiting. Some competitors have an infinite canvas, this would have been helpful. The documentation is behind a login, which puts an unwanted "hurdle" for users to get to learn how to use iObeya.

**What problems is iObeya solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We've managed to create visual representations of our backlogs, goals, teams, and provide every team with the opportunity to use whiteboards on the fly. This has helped us cooperate & coordinate, especially when transitioning to working from home during the COVID pandemic.

  ### 8. Feedback

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

  ### 9. iObeya Enables Collaboration at Work and at School

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Brian S. | Operations Excellence Change Agent, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 18, 2020

**What do you like best about iObeya?**

I use iObeya both at work and at a University that I teach at. iObeya allows many different team members to interact synchronously and asynchronously in a controlled environment. That is to say, they can work together in any size group individually or at the same time. For example, I can provide a visual background of the project or tool that we are using. Participants can add their own notes: questions, comments, final input. iObeya is a playground of voices. In the end, I can group like comments and download them into a report and share with the whole team. Team Leaders can take the input as a whole and create a communication or write their final reports.

**What do you dislike about iObeya?**

In the past, I have had difficulty getting individual accounts onto iObeya. There is no provision for "guests" to interact. I also get feedback from participants that putting notes on a board "is not intuitive". I have solved that criticism by offering alternate versions. iObeya is the preferred tool in the collaboration space like this.

**Recommendations to others considering iObeya:**

If you are looking for a visual collaboration tool, consider iObeya. It is useful to immediately translate any physical reporting such as whiteboard or spreadsheet. It best use case is to place visual notes that create conversation. If you already have a vibrant in-person meeting and want to invite remote participants, iObeya is a very good solution.

**What problems is iObeya solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I have used iObeya to communicate and coordinate Annual Strategy with more than a dozen sites (200 people) simultaneously. We had over 400 questions submitted and answered by the Strategy Leaders. This led to greater engagement with the Strategic Objectives and we met out goals in less than 1 year.

  ### 10. iObeya, the online visual management tool that helps us surmount the obstacles of  Covid19

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Thomas Q. | Principal Lean-Agile SPC for Public Sector, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 30, 2021

**What do you like best about iObeya?**

I like the availability of the tool on all digital media, the native visual management features and the options for agile and agile at scale.

**What do you dislike about iObeya?**

The creation of an account is mandatory, but ultimately it is the best way to ensure security of access and traceability.

**What problems is iObeya solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We manage large and complex computer system development programs. At the early stages of Covid19 containment, our priority was the continuity of our teams' activities, but for that we had to re-establish the link with our business customers to avoid the drying up of the backlog. We also had a large SAFe training program to deliver, we had to switch to distance learning .. and we did it.

  ### 15. Virtual collaboration made real with iObeya.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Sanjeevini P. | Enterprise Coach, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 10, 2021

**What do you like best about iObeya?**

Simplicity, Robustness and Easy to use capabilities of the tool.
Ready to use templates and toolbox makes life easy.
Capabilities adapted for Agile / SAFe activities or events.
Small learning curve.

**What do you dislike about iObeya?**

This tool has major functionalities needed for teams to kickstart especially teams going Agile /SAFe way. Most importantly, iObeya team is gathering all the feedback to add more capabilities / improvise the existing functionalities. Tool is evolving for the good.

I look forward to an easy registration process for registering my participants to the room as an enhancement. And capability to use it instantly for all my meetings / brainstorming sessions without going through participant registration.

**What problems is iObeya solving and how is that benefiting you?**

1.Convert Classroom training to Virtual Training : This was the need when we lost an opportunity to meet people F2F  in 2020.  I use iObeya for all my trainings (Agile & SAFe). It has helped us convert Classroom trainings to virtual trainings.  Virtual trainings were quite a challenge initially. I used 3 tools to setup my training exercises and games. But with iObeya, my life is simplified. iObeya is very easy to setup and easy to learn by new participants.  SAFe trainings have many simulation exercise like PI planning, Problem Solving ,Retrospection .And iObeya is quite equipped to run them. This makes learning quite an engaging and fruitful experience.

2. After training when teams started their journey on Agile /SAFe , needed real tool to engage teams from different geographies to plan together and collaborate on regular basis. iObeya helped us making teams effective and continue business. Today Our teams who started with trainings have continued with iObeya for real SAFe events in their programs. Most importantly integration of iObeya with Jira and DevOps is very valuable for SAFe teams to plan visually and integrate their planning outcome with Jira/DevOps.

  ### 16. An ergonomic, intuitive, and powerful tool

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Ilona D. | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 22, 2020

**What do you like best about iObeya?**

iObeya is a particularly easy tool to get started with. It brilliantly replicates physical visual management tools, while allowing, in these times when in-person meetings are not possible, a dematerialization of information. Very useful for facilitating team meetings, downward information sessions, and formal presentations, it is also a perfect playground for feedback and idea sharing thanks to its animation options.

**What do you dislike about iObeya?**

iObeya is a perfect visual management tool that finds its limitations when used in project management; the information is at the current moment, there is no history or data cross-referencing, which leads to the use of different tools simultaneously and multiplies data entries.

**What problems is iObeya solving and how is that benefiting you?**

- Support for animation of meetings like COPIL (weekly, monthly)
- Evaluation of workload by period (planning boards) and by users (card members)
- Monitoring and reporting on the progress of certain projects
- Exchange platform, improvement of communication and team cohesion
- Facilitation of feedback sessions

  ### 17. Make it visual... make it simple... make it efficient !

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Sylvain S. | Product Development Engineering Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 04, 2021

**What do you like best about iObeya?**

iObeya provides an easy way to make digital visual management. It's closed to the real practices you can get in a classical Obeya room and I think it's a key factor of success for the adoption of collaborators. It's very natural and intuitive.
We always heard about Lean and Agile methodologies, but when it comes to the field of R&D with Engineering development of Hardware, it's quite difficult to make it happen. I would say that iObeya helps to make it come true by facilitating the practical aspects.

**What do you dislike about iObeya?**

Even if a lot of functions are available and you can personalize boards, cards and a lot of accessories, sometimes you would like to go deeper and get another function and you can't do exactly the thing you would like. But the iObeya team is very customer centric, and is always listening to our need or usage. The fact that the application is developing around customers feedback is very appreciated and you know that the next feature will come...

**Recommendations to others considering iObeya:**

Just try it !

**What problems is iObeya solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Putting things on boards help to have a better vision of the complexity. I'm not saying, you have to simplify everything  to escape the complexity, but visually, it's easier to identify where are the priorities, where we have to be focused to play and win. So in a certain manner, iObeya helps us to have a clear vision of our projects roadmap, to prioritize and allocate ressources in order to be efficient and maximize the value creation.
When it comes to the operational aspects, it's the same thing at a different scale, iObeya helps the teams to see where they are, to collaborate better, to share roadblocks and find solutions...
At the end, the benefits are numerous, such as efficiency, TTM reduction and even the collaborators competencies improvement by working together closer.

  ### 18. Very user friendly and combines all tools in one platform

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Darren M. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 18, 2020

**What do you like best about iObeya?**

It combines lots of tools in one platform and for many different tasks. It allows contribution from colleagues worldwide and a different times. I like how easy it is to train people on iObeya and also the videos provided are great. It also provides a great platform for teamwork and brainstorming. It can easily be changed at any stage to include new boards or to suit the needs of the business.

**What do you dislike about iObeya?**

It would be great if an email notification could be sent to people to tell them that they are part of a project or to remind them about milestones. On site, we use many different software's to complete our daily tasks. Unless you login to iObeya, you don't know what you need to do. Also, it would be great if iObeya could connect with excel to take data from spreadsheets instead of manually inputting data.

**Recommendations to others considering iObeya:**

It has been very beneficial to our company. It creates a great platform for involving people in projects and problem solving. The ease of use of iObeya allows it to be easily set up depending on the needs of the company and can be easily changed at any stage. Definitely recommend giving it a go. The guys are great!!!

**What problems is iObeya solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It allows us to come together as a team and contribute to projects and problem solving. Problem solving is what we mainly use it for but the possibilities are endless. It is used by all departments simultaneously.

  ### 21. Not just a white board, iObeya is a serious, visual management tool.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Management Consulting | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 26, 2021

**What do you like best about iObeya?**

Not only can the tool be leveraged for simple, collaborative sessions but it can also be setup for visual management utilizing QCD functionality.  Metrics that fall outside of thresholds which you set, trigger the user to generate action cards that can be escalated to a tracker in their own or someone else's board!

The ability to import various types of cards into a board saves a ton of time when you are trying to pre-populate a board.

Although the background catalogue is fairly extensive, the ability to build custom backgrounds with power point is a definite plus!

**What do you dislike about iObeya?**

For use in North America it would be beneficial to have dates represented mm-dd-yyyy rather than dd-mm-yyyy.  An endless canvas board larger than the current limit of 4A0 would have its merits as well.  I would prefer that the multi-select tool would not pick up locked items - if an item has been locked by the user it should stay locked until the user unlocks it.

**What problems is iObeya solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Working remotely has made it difficult to have truly collaborative meetings, brainstorming and problem solving sessions.  iObeya has changed all that!

It's not easy to import/export data from/to excel

**Recommendations to others considering iObeya:**

just Try it

**What problems is iObeya solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The ability to provide an Obeya whereby all teams interact in a remote setting, just as they would in person!

**What do you dislike about iObeya?**

In some instances, the knowledge of using the tool becomes obscured by the complexity of the options.

**What problems is iObeya solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The problem of conducting an Obeya with all participants operating in a remote setting has been resolved. The ability for all parties to visually see what each other are doing has been the benefit.

  ### 32. Want a short learning curve for your users? Implement iObeya!

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Matt A. | Chief Change Agent, Solutions Coach, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 29, 2020

**What do you like best about iObeya?**

The learning curve for the average user is minutes not hours. When I kicked off a team to use its visual management capabilities I would make a 2-3 minute video using a screen capture tool and send to the team. This video and a short demo was all that was needed for a majority of the users to be up and running  effectively on iObeya.  When using the collaboration / digital whiteboard capabilities we just did a short demo and quick practice round before starting a brainstorming activity. This was all that was required.  As an internal consultant trying to get 100+ users on iObeya this made my job very easy and led to quick adoption of the tool. Compared to other tools we reviewed (and the tool our IT group wanted us to use which was powerful but complicated) iObeya  won hands down.

**Reviewed by:** Valentina M. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 22, 2020

**What do you like best about iObeya?**

Our Innovation Team has studied and tested the main software systems on the market potentially capable of capturing Lean and Agile improvement opportunities in  product and process design.  Among these systems, iObeya is probably the most consistent with the characteristic product and process development activities, thanks to its flexibility and adaptability that allow it to host and manage the kind of highly creative work that is somewhat in the nature of R&D projects.

  ### 39. iObeya - Works Well for Most

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Government Administration | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 18, 2020

**What do you like best about iObeya?**

The collaborative experience it allows.  It allows individuals to feel like they are connected in a way they would in a room.

**What do you dislike about iObeya?**

The cost, the limitations as far as how many individuals can be in a room or how much of the walls you can use, etc.  It seems like the package should be unlimited at a specific cost, not a la cart.

**Recommendations to others considering iObeya:**

It takes some time to get used to the software & understand all it has to offer.  Just as it would be for any software.  It also takes time to understand the full benefits of the product vs. the limitations.

We are looking at processes to determine where the current state is & how we can improve the process or system for the future.

The active cards are a great way to keep track of a project, including a summary of the project, deadlines and people on working on the team.

It is very easy to accidentally move parts of the board. It would also be great if you could use right-click to open the settings for each card.

**Recommendations to others considering iObeya:**

Take the time to play with the many boards before settling on one, as we switched multiple times to different KanBan modes before choosing the right one for our team. Or you can design your own board using a template background.
