Overall Satisfaction with Lucidspark

Lucidspark was used for a creative workshop on Design Thinking best practices and standards. Exercises were created and breakout team boards were utilized. It was perfect for collaboration among teams and the larger group. The app was useful in creating empathy maps, storyboarding concepts, and basic prototypes for further collaboration and discussion.

Pros

  • Group breakout boards.
  • Affinity mapping with sticky notes.
  • Storyboarding.
  • Quick sketching.
  • Voting.
  • Polls.

Cons

  • The learning curve makes it tough for some users.
  • Maybe provide more access to third-party apps.
  • Create different brushes for in-app sketching.
  • Great for storing and sharing ideas.
  • Setting up a board before an activity can help better define goals.
  • The export options are a nice way of sharing results from a meeting or workshop.
I gave this rating because Lucidspark is overall a great tool. It is simple and intuitive to use. There was not a huge learning curve for me to get started and my team was happy with several of the features it offers, specifically the ability to split into breakout groups from a single board, which other similar products do not offer.
Lucidspark has worked so well that it has not required support, so I cannot speak to either online or telephone assistance. However, when I was first onboarded for a workshop, Lucidspark employees were onsite and very enthusiastic about helping all attendees. They assisted with getting everyone signed in and comfortable with the product, as well as pointing out features that a new user may not have initially noticed.

I have used Miro in the past and I believe Lucidspark is just as, if not more effective. As mentioned previously, I really appreciate the ability to break out into smaller groups from a single board. It saves a great deal of confusion when workshopping with a large number of people. Miro does not have this ability.

Lucidspark is at its best when many users have to collaborate but do not have the ability to meet in person for live whiteboarding. It is a great way to get ideas down either in real-time or at the convenience of each user. The only scenario I could think of where it may not be appropriate would be for in-person meetings that do not have the technology to support it.
