Chose ElaBoard
Interface of Ela Board is better and user-friendly. It is dependent on the G Suite and may not be considered as an independent Whiteboard. Very limited tools available. Media tools are not available. Being a google product, the we were not confident on the security front. …
Chose ElaBoard
I think Miro offers more features and faster performances when it comes to those features, but ElaBoard is better for our size organization (small to mid). We don't necessarily need a lot of the offerings in Miro, so ElaBoard suited our budget better.
Chose ElaBoard
We went with ElaBoard because of the pricepoint, but I have used several other similar tools, and I think it's pretty comparable.
Chose ElaBoard
Honestly, I like using both products (Miro and ElaBoard). I think Elaboard is a little easier to use and implement. They are similar, but Elaboard is a little more user-friendly. I do wish Elaboard had the variety of templates Miro offers.
Chose ElaBoard
While I think Miro is a great platform, Elaboard offered better integration with the other software we use in the organization.

Cons
  • They need more templates! There are only a few options and they aren't very creative or helpful. Need more variety.
  • Wish you could import and integrate with Miro boards.
  • Sometimes the drag and drop has glitches when using it.
