## The answer, as recorded

Asked on 2026-10-20 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5).

> # Best digital whiteboards for remote teams
> 
> **1. Miro** - The default recommendation, and the one I'd start with if you have no other constraints. Biggest canvas ecosystem, hundreds of templates, deep integrations (Jira, Slack, Zoom, Azure DevOps), and a generous free tier (3 editable boards). It's the one your clients and contractors will already know how to use, which matters more than any feature for remote work.
> 
> **2. FigJam (Figma)** - The obvious pick if your team already pays for Figma. Lighter and faster-feeling than Miro, and it's free for Figma seat holders, so it's effectively zero marginal cost. Its "open session" feature lets people join for 24 hours with no login - genuinely useful for workshops with external participants.
> 
> **3. Mural** - Choose this for *facilitated* sessions rather than freeform doodling: timers, private mode voting, facilitator superpowers, and the strongest enterprise controls of the three (SSO/SCIM, data residency, bring-your-own-key). The right answer for a large org running structured workshops at scale.
> 
> **4. Excalidraw** - Free, open source, self-hostable. Hand-drawn aesthetic, loads instantly, no account needed for a quick shared link. Best
