    I believe Brightidea is a great tool for any business where collaboration is encouraged and open innovation is a priority. It enables cross functional teams and audiences to share ideas and connect on topics they may not normally collaborate on

    Best suited: In focused, facilitator driven idea noting or discussion session. Less suited: There is no force factor to get users to come back to the mission or page once the session is over. There is no what happens next driver for Missions.

    Cons
    Brightidea
    • The backend project management portion could be easier to utilize and connect idea from inception to execution.
    • In a large organization having multiple approvers and viewers of the prioritized ideas can be challenging.
    • Would love to see a robust report and measurment tool that connects the full story of the idea.

    • More videos in terms of tutorials and use cases.
    • Success stories of how companies used Ideanote to supercharge their innovation.
    • The new Zapier integration is a good step but I would like to see more native integrations with popular SaaS products.
    • Expensive - if not for finding it in an AppSumo deal it would have been hard to afford.

    None. This is the only idea and innovation management software I use for our internal processes and we soon plan to use this for our future lined-up services.We have tried GERU in the past but that is a visual mapping software and does not really help in managing proper communication between guests and internal team members.
