The Free-style Canvases allow for better expression of Results and Updates of a particular task. The collaboration utilities, like the chat and the live pointer of other participants on a canvas, are excellent, especially for teams working remotely and in different time zones. Great tool to communicate a summary of results with non-technical team members. Great for small-mid sized teams that don't really require as tight of a control as something that Asana offers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The text box/typing on canvases seems a bit unsmooth and rigid.
IMO, you could emphasize on the linking options more as Canvases are a great place to share Summaries and results, but the thorough 12 page content is in some Google Doc/Sheet.
I don't really get what OKRs and Projects do. Are they the same thing. Why does a key result have a different canvas? Maybe a short FAQ/Help/How to for an ignorant non-PM user like me that doesn't disappear after I first login Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I love that Allo uses the familiar options of a Kanban board with very flexible workspace functionality. What I love the most is the whiteboard feature which create virtual desks where we can 'lay it all out' virtually between team members and clients Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I dont' really have a down side - all I would say is that it is good to learn what it is good for and what there are better tools for. Project management for example is not what I would use Allo for, nor do I think it should focus on that functionality. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Organization of different projects is available. Canvas explainer videos are included to introduce new users to the platform so my clients know how to use pieces we share.
Backup snapshots are good and extracting to a pdf is helpful.
Items allowed are numerous for brainstorming, planning & editing ideas as projects are done. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Tables inserted do not edit well on mobile devices. Clients try overlaying with text boxes and it gets too messy to keep table cells updated correctly. Sorting is impossible.
Also, arrows to link one item to another doesn't work well because the origin point cannot be moved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
With Allo, I like the ease of collaborating with a virtually unlimited amount of people simultaneously for creative projects. Allo allows for multiple use cases, beyond just whiteboarding. We use it for planning, documentation, brand boards, templating, and much more. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I'm not the biggest fan of the new UI, and I would like more integrations.
Access to the API would be a great addition.
There are some limitations around stickers and not yet any icon support, that I am aware of. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Allo makes it easy to create and manage team collaboration. This is an essential feature we use during our certified classes. The feature we like most about Allo is the translation feature. We teach in both English and Japanese. This way, the students can modify their team boards in Japanese, and we can easily translate them into English. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The biggest issue we have had is the Team Board links will stop working and must be recreated each day. While it is not difficult, it still requires time. If there would be a way to ensure that once a link has been created, it remains effective. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The online whiteboard is very easy to use. I can create teaching material very quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The method for controlling access to created material is, by generating a new URL, is inconvenient to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The open infinite scalable canvases with the quick ideation approach. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Lack of mobile support more than just the scaled down version of app, missing mobile flow support of things Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
As a B2B SaaS company, BeeCanvas has made a massive impact on our product team's velocity. By taking the best parts of our favorite tools and combining them into one, we can brainstorm, prototype, and leave feedback all in a single place. BC is our source of truth for anything visual. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
No dislikes. When I do notice minor issues their team is quick to respond and implement a fix. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Bee Canvas is app you can use to visually communicate ideas on projects and with teams. Essentially you are able to make mood/ inspiration boards to help explain ideas and concepts. Also multiple people can collaborate on the document. I like how everyone can participate and contribute on the digital white boards Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It's pretty simple and straightforward to use. Have never had any problems to date Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I have been using BeeCanvas for G Suite for few years now to keep in touch with other team members. It simplifies the whole process and integrates with Google Drive. The best thing about it is its ease of use. It makes it easier to take notes during a lecture or to give a presentation. BeeCanvas for G Suite is a must have software because it comes with a free version. Users who cannot afford to buy it can equally enjoy its features with the help of the free version. It works better for small companies and helps user organize their work for better. There is a large room for customization so it enhances productivity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
BeeCanvas for G Suite has few problems present like the features are not that modern and are outdated so improvement is needed. The web version works perfectly but the mobile application is lacking so I hope they release an update to fix this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
BeeCanvas is quicker, faster and looks better than the software’s of its kinds. BeeCanvas enhances communication with team members and due to it projects can be shared within the team just like in real life. It is intuitive and efficient working. The communication is incredible. It works for small to medium sized businesses. It helps in visual communication. The tools are incredible, and interface is clean. It helps team members to communicate with each other. It enhances the workflow and streamlines the project. Ideas can be added, and team members can help each other no matter where they are. It makes it easier to transfer files from google doc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The software is great but there are still advanced features which are not available. Web version is incredible but mobile version is nothing like it and needs to be updated. They did have few glitches, but they fixed it with time. It can be bit difficult to use for large companies. However, its pros outshine the cons. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It integrates with the G Suite host of products and has the ability to allow multiple users to interact on a document. If you're looking for a great way to visually represent ideas then BeeCanvas is a must!!! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I have run into very few issues with BeeCanvas. A slight issue as with most programs would be the way it is optimized across various mobile platforms can be tricky to navigate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is a simple application, which does not have fully advanced options, despite having specific services for companies, this program does not have all the necessary tools to have a perfect control in large companies. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I can create a visual narrative as opposed to be used to writing it down on paper. I can put pictures and drawings together without it being so hard. I can come up with an easy solution by physically looking at it. You can draw something cool or in a way that lets you better illustrate and view a better way to plan and make sense of how to tackle a problem right off the bat. Great for a starter, it doesn't have a lot of features which is great for a starter in whatever field may be or just to play around with. You can do quite a lot by just a few tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It has its limits; like it is only a thing created for google. I have yet to find an app for like outlook. When i actually use it, It's only meant for google. It has a few set of tools and like all that you could possibly need out of getting something that will truly do everything. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
This is an amazing projects for managing your projects. It's various range of tools make it easy to customise your projects as per your needs. It helps to manage and access the projects at different level by different users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What I was looking for a project management tool it has all in it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I was an editor with BeeCanvas when I worked with a team of other photographers and honestly I was the best tool we had. We all had access to the same design-storm and were all able to edit 'live'. We were able to add ideas and help each other all at the same time no matter where we were. The best thing was being able to have others add to my ideas and design on there without having to email back and forth. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I don't dislike anything about BeeCanvas. It is truly awesome. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like that this software has really helped us in our efforts to streamline our practices, cut down on excess labor, and improve the quality of our finished products and projects. What's not to love? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
This software is so amazing and easy to use, there is nothing to dislike! Everything is intuitive and easy to explain to other team members. No complaints here. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
BeeCanvas helps mitigate the project management process rather easily, not to mention aesthetically. Images, files, links, etc. can all be sorted out on a single canvas which makes project management extremely convenient. BeeCanvas just recently integrated Google Drive which makes it easier to transfer my files from google doc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is lacking some more advanced features, but the company has been making huge progress in there short operational period. Just wish they updated the app version soon, still not up to par. Web version is great though! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
