Use Cases and Deployment Scope

During the COVID-19 breakout, there arose a need for team collaboration and the facilitation of real-time work on remote scenarios to be analyzed. In those terms, we have been introduced to a new tool Klaxoon, which is a simple, all-in-one, accessible tool that enables visual collaboration for simple and inclusive teamwork with maximum participation.

Pros

  • Boards with ideas and vectorial arrows are the best way to structure ideas during brainstorming
  • Sessions are very useful at keeping participants involved during training via surveys and questionnaires
  • Numerous templates available for the facilitation of remote working scenarios

Cons

  • Absence of Categorization of list of boards which can be very handy and helpful
  • More freedom to switch between different activities and reactivate some (you can accidentally close the session)
  • Some UI-UX problems - for instance, it is not easy to create a post-it note exactly at the pointed location

Return on Investment

  • The low time investment required to build an MVP prototype which leads to decreased Time-to-Market value significantly and thereby allows you to save on operational costs
  • Reusability of already created boards can facilitate the lead time which has a direct impact on Return on Investment (ROI)
  • A low entry barrier allows the introduction of the tool to the development team thereby allowing decreased lead time and Time-to-Market

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We have a small workshop collective at our university. We provide education on architecture to undergraduate students. We started looking for an application to use in our new online workshop and that's when we came across Klaxoon. We aim to provide communication and collaboration between our group online and to coordinate the tasks we will give to the students.

Pros

  • introduce the pages/boards
  • admin privileges
  • navigation

Cons

  • UX/UI Design - it looks unripe
  • grasping objects - it can happen by mistake
  • should be simplified

Return on Investment

  • Saved time
  • Members bored by the compelling interface
  • eyestrain because it's too colorful

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Facilitating remote meetings or trainings is a new skill made necessary by hybrid work (remote people and others on site).Klaxoon offers a palette of animation tools, as well as ready-to-use standards.Klaxoon does not require any training in the strict sense, it is a tool for everyone.

Pros

  • There are many templates available in the library: very useful for organizing a workshop that always requires a method to support collective intelligence.
  • Klaxoon is great for working collaboratively at the same time. It is really visual and not very difficult to use. It has different kinds of interesting features, but you have to know about them.

Cons

  • On the board, categories are limited to 20 options and colors for ideas are limited to 8.
  • There is no record of the actions that are performed.
  • It sounds easy, although you can get overwhelmed when you start using it. It takes a lot of practice to feel confident using it.

Return on Investment

  • the tool helps me stay engaged remotely, klaxoon allows me to stay in touch with my teams and stay up-to-date on topics.

Klaxoon offers voice calls and a whiteboarding app, however voice calls are unneeded, and the app could use some additional content like clipart searches

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We used Klaxoon as one of the tools for remote collaboration as IT shifted into a fully remote work mechanism. Our team is responsible for figuring out whatever it's going to take to utilize machine learning across the enterprise. Relating to Klaxoon and other digital whiteboarding apps, this means we draw architecture diagrams, whiteboard social structures, and plan out education or delivery roadmaps.

Pros

  • Free hand whiteboard with a marker
  • fast color switching
  • overlaying shapes and objects without being silly :)

Cons

  • lacking a custom clipart library
  • uploading pngs don't preserve transparency

Return on Investment

  • These are typically used for planning, but it's definitely saved us time and money from traveling into the office

Other Software Used
