Pen, select, post it, images, shapes, text, connectors, tables, comments, emojis, google images, mindmaps, youtube links – the list goes on! Pen, eraser, select, post it, images, shapes, text, spotlight (all basic in terms of shapes, colours and use) Within your google account – click on the nine dots and scroll down to it!Įasy to use for first timers (as host and as participant)įairly easy to use the basic tools, but more learning curve for the vast array of things it can do! I figured a good old comparison table would be the easiest way to see them and I’ve added a column about which one I think wins in each category.Ĭheck out my final thoughts after the table too which might help you choose.

In this post I’m going to lay out some of the main things I think you need to know and consider when choosing which whiteboard tool to use. Whilst these are the two I recommend and they might look similar enough on the surface, they are actually pretty different underneath – and sometimes you may not realise this until it’s too late. I did a huge recon job a few years back that led me to using Miro, which I have to say I absolutely love, but it doesn’t mean I’d recommend it as the first stop for everyone – that’s where Google Jamboard comes in. (If you don’t know what they are then you can read more about them in “What are online whiteboards”)īut with so many of them out there it can be hard to choose which one might be right for you.

Online whiteboards are a fantastic tool to support virtual workshops, courses and meetings. Google Jamboard vs Miro – a comparison to help you choose which one you need
