## The answer, as recorded

Asked on 2026-09-11 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5).

> Short answer: for most small businesses, **Miro** unless you have a specific reason to pick something else. Here's how I'd rank them:
> 
> **1. Miro** - the default, and the one I'd pick if you don't want to think about it. Biggest template library, best integrations (Slack, Teams, Zoom, Jira, Google Drive), and everyone you hire or work with has probably already used it, so training cost is near zero. Free tier gives you 3 editable boards; paid starts around $8/user/mo, Business ~$16. The 3-board free limit is the thing that pushes teams to pay.
> 
> **2. FigJam (Figma)** - the best value by a wide margin at roughly $3/editor/mo annual. If your team is under ~10 people and you mostly need sticky notes, diagrams, and brainstorming, this does 90% of what Miro does for a fifth of the price. Obvious pick if you already use Figma for any design work.
> 
> **3. Microsoft Whiteboard** - if you're already paying for Microsoft 365, this is free and sits directly inside Teams meetings. Best stylus/handwriting support of the bunch. Weaker on templates and third-party integrations, but "already paid for" is hard to argue with for a small business watching costs.
> 
> **4. Canva Whiteboards** - unlimited free

Answer Watch records what one AI answer engine said on one date, nothing more. Each page names the engine and the model, carries the date the question was asked, and lists the brands that appeared in the answer in the order the engine gave them, with the sources it cited. It is a measurement, not a ranking, not a recommendation and not a claim about the world. Brands that did not appear in an answer are not named on any public page.
