Miro** - The default answer for most remote teams. It's the market leader (~80M users), with the deepest feature set for workshop facilitation, sprint planning, and retros, the largest template and integration library, and it handles genuinely huge, messy boards without choking. Free plan covers 3 boards; paid starts around $8/user/month. The main knock is value - it's the most expensive per seat for what you get if you only need light whiteboarding.\n\n**2. FigJam** - My pick if your team skews design-led or you already pay for Figma. It's lighter and friendlier than Miro, and it's bundled with Figma subscriptions at no extra cost, so for existing Figma teams it's effectively free. Reviewers consistently rate it higher than Miro on ease of use and value.\n\n**3. Lucidspark** - Best when brainstorming needs to become *structured* output. It shares a suite with Lucidchart, so a sticky-note mess can turn into a real flowchart, org chart, or architecture diagram without switching tools. Paid starts around $7.95/month.\n\n**4. Microsoft Whiteboard** - The pragmatic choice if you're a Microsoft 365 shop. It's included, it's inside Teams, and", "answer_truncated": true, "measurement": "One answer from one engine on one date.
