Mural vs. Qlerify

Remote Collaboration: In a remote or distributed work environment, Mural shines. It enables teams to collaborate effectively in real-time, bridging geographical gaps and facilitating virtual meetings, workshops, and brainstorming sessions. Workshop Facilitation: For facilitators leading workshops or team-building activities, Mural provides interactive templates and tools for engaging participants and achieving specific objectives.

Qlerify is very strong in collaborative work in process modeling and design and it speeds up the discovery process. The ability to create, e.g., user stories and export them directly to Jira backlog is valuable in accelerating software development. The UI is also simple and flexible enough for ad hoc brainstorming.

• Ability to follow other users' cursors makes it easy for a group to understand what a particular person is explaining
• Drag-and-drop components for ease of use
• Quick and easy way to provide access to internal/external users as MURAL (formerly Mural.ly) is a SaaS product

Incentivized

• Ease of use
• Versatility. Fit for many type of needs.
• Closing the gap between business and software.
• Fast

• It'd be nice that the zoom regulation could be easier to manage
• The advanced features are a little bit easy to adopt. Why not adding some agile trainings, or some other tools to facilitate their adoption
• A faster and easier way to Integrate with ms office

Incentivized

• More realistic and detailed sample projects
• A bit more context about the different methodologies (such as Event Storming) Qlerify supports

Overall, MURAL is really easy to use, but there are a couple downsides. It's really easy to make areas of the board consistent because double clicking adds stickies that match those around the current one. It's really easy to connect the elements. And it's really easy to organize elements. Inconsistent controls, Panning, Line Connections, and latency are the only issues I had. My biggest issue is that the MURAL mouse buttons are very different from
most similar software. This always causes me problems switching to a
graphics software or 3D modelling software. Because MURAL uses the same button to pan and move elements, it's really easy to move things when panning around. The lines can also be a (sometimes huge) problem because thew will occasionally disappear or connect to things incorrectly. I think this is tied to latency issues which, in addition to causing phantom lines, can sometimes cause confusion to your team.

Chat support tends to get back to you within a few hours and are always helpful.

I like it better than Miro because MURAL's more informal feel makes it encourage conversation and use. Miro also let's you bury too much information "inside" the notes making it really easy to lose sight of important data. I like MURAL better than Lucidspark because of how fast the pages load, especially links within the board. Any app is better than Microsoft whiteboard which is appalling unusable and feature incomplete.

I haven't officially evaluated other process mapping tools. I have however used many tool during the past 30 years. Qlerify is first I am excited about.
