## The answer, as recorded

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

> # Best digital whiteboards for small businesses
> 
> **1. Miro** - the default recommendation. It's the most mature infinite-canvas tool: huge template library, real-time collaboration, strong integrations (Slack, Jira, Google Workspace), and solid mobile/tablet apps. The free plan gives you 3 editable boards, which is genuinely usable for a small team, and paid starts around $8/user/month billed annually ($10 monthly). It's rated the #1 whiteboard tool overall for 2026. Pick this unless something below describes you specifically.
> 
> **2. Microsoft Whiteboard** - if you're already on Microsoft 365, stop here. It's included at no extra cost, embeds directly into Teams meetings, and requires zero procurement or onboarding. Less powerful than Miro (fewer templates, weaker frameworks for workshops), but "free and already in the tool everyone opens" beats "better" for a lot of small businesses. Caveat: desktop app is Windows-only.
> 
> **3. FigJam (Figma)** - the right call if anyone on your team already uses Figma for design or web work. It's bundled into Figma seats rather than being a separate subscription, so you avoid paying twice, and it's the simplest of the serious tools to learn. Less us
