### "CardBoard Review"

August 3, 2018

4.0

Pros

The software tools look modern and easy to use. I was able to get accustomed to the application with great ease.

Cons

I think the application needs to have slightly more versatile for it to be used for a wider variety of reasons.

### "Integration with JIRA does not work in the long term"

July 30, 2018

3.0

Dissappointing. The lack of a sync we can use makes it only marginally better than powerpoint or visio.

Pros

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

Cons

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.

### "Better than wasting Post-It notes"

March 22, 2019

3.0

Like above, it saves paper and provides a digital version of your storyboard that you can bookmark and access at any time.

Pros

It's a nice digital way to storyboard without wasting paper. CardBoard lets you change the color of each card as well as font sizing and the ability to create dividers which really helps with organization.

Cons

The biggest issue with CardBoard is that it isn't super user-friendly. Members of our team weren't able to add or customize cards and we couldn't figure out why.

### "What I think"

July 27, 2018

3.0

Overall good for mapping epic stories but would use another agile software to do the rest

Pros

simplicity, functionality, how easy to make epic stories and go deeper

Cons

Titles per story resize boxes Layout generally retro and gives me the feeling that it's old How things move around the UI gives me the feeling that I won't find so many options around here. Like when you go to settings, you don't feel like you're going to do much and that it's rigid

### "Journeys Best Friend"

July 30, 2018

4.0

We use cardboard to document our story mapping sessions with business, ux and tech and then slice them into journeys to start breaking up stories and get better estimations for the work ahead of us.

Pros

Ability to map out and then create journeys to be able to get into TFS

Cons

Difficult to set up accounts for multiple employees that are on different projects

### "Good tool for story mapping"

August 2, 2018

4.0

Experience was good. Wanted an online tool for story mapping. Ended up using Visio for now, but might use the tool in future.

Pros

Ease of use. There are not many tool that allow you to create story maps easily. Integration with Jira.

Cons

Can’t support/create complex story maps easily. Need the ability to resize cards. I’d be really nice if there was an ability to add markers on the card to denote additional info (add a round tag to the card and color it). Also, ability to format text on the card and a few words preview of description would be great.

If you type into the card, three dots will appear showing additional information within the the card. Thank you for your feedback as we continue to improve CardBoard to make the best product possible for you!

### "Story/Process/Flow mapping tool"

July 31, 2018

4.0

1\. We did a huge program that involved multiple squads. We had a huge (physical) wall on which we used post it notes to do feature mapping. Each team was a column and their features to develop was in that column, and the status of the features were rows. Mirrored the entire wall on cardboard and slowly discontinued using the wall. 2. Documented process flows by using the highlighting specific cards feature

Pros

Ability to highlight cards as part of a single process flow or feature

Cons

Many manual actions required for each card. Would be nice to have some automatic built in features.

### "Very easy to use"

August 3, 2018

4.0

Pros

The cardboard tool is extremely intuitive. It's very easy to drag and drop tickets, as you would do in the real life. It is very visual and makes grouping of tasks/tickets a breeze.

Cons

There is only a little learning curve about the software but it was very easy to overcome.

5.0

### "Collaboration at scale"

August 2, 2018

4.0

Pros

The software makes it fairly easy for several people to trade ideas and collaborate at the same time. The interface is fairly intuitive, even if someone is new to the product.

Cons

There are times when I found myself unable to edit the card I created without having to click several menu items. Even after having used it multiple times, I ran into unexpected results when trying to create, move or edit new cards. I would also love to have this export as a text or csv file to make it easier to use the results in other applications such as Jira.

### "Awesome, Focused solution, but pricey"

July 27, 2018

5.0

It was a great trial experience, and I loved playing with the tool. Just wish it wasn't so expensive. Specifically, I only need a couple of permanent licenses, but when I run workshops, I need between 5 and 50 people to be able to edit all at once, but only for a few hours. Sometimes, I need temporary licenses for temporary team members who'll only need to edit for a few days or weeks. Nobody has really cracked this pricing structure yet.

Pros

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.

Cons

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.

### "CardBoard makes things clear."

July 30, 2018

4.0

Pros

CardBoard has really helped out team visualize where we are and where we are going. It's helped us stay focused on the tasks we need to jump on next.

Cons

It would be nicer if we could use CardBoard to generate empty Jira tickets so we get going once we've made our decisions. It would also be nice to see the ticket statuses on the CardBoard board.

### "Projects done easier"

September 17, 2019

4.0

Easy to use but maybe more than what I need for my business.

Pros

I've used a few storyboarding solutions in the past, this one is good for seeing things in a cleaner view. simple to use and very user friendly meaning intuitive.

Cons

More knowledgebase help videos needed. also i think this software is suited for larger companies with collaboration projects bigger than what I was needing it for. just need simple mind map for brainstorming.

### "Makes Collaboration Easy"

July 27, 2018

4.0

Great way to organize project/product requirements quickly. Love that it allows multiple people working simultaneously. That's real collaboration!

Pros

It was quick and easy to pull a small group together to teach them story mapping through an exercise. Everyone was able to contribute right away. A few even loved CardBoard so much they kept building on the exercise, and demonstrating the product to colleagues.

Cons

Would like to draw release lines that are snug to the user story cards by allowing the lines to turn vertically while going horizontally to indicate releases. Also, would like a way to keep top row in view when scrolling lower.

### "Works as expected"

July 27, 2018

3.0

Overall, CardBoard works as expected and can be a useful tool for teams while roadmapping. Provided that the small quirks don't bother you, have at it.

Pros

We use CardBoard as a way to layout mid to long-term roadmaps. Overall the software works as expected.

Cons

\* There are some glitches here and there depending upon what browser one is using. \* The access model needs work.

August 1, 2018

4.0

Pros

The visual display of the cards works really well.

Cons

While you can add text to the back of a card, I would like this to be more robust - attach files, add links to other cards, etc.

### "Very useful planning tool!"

July 27, 2018

4.0

Story boarding for an entire release was made easy using this product!

Pros

I liked how I was able to easily capture an image of my work plan at any time and send it off to my team and/or manager for review. It was also nice to be able to share boards with other users from my team with ease.

Cons

At times it was a little difficult to navigate, but once you got the hang of it, it became easy to use.
