| Biggest strength | Highly customisable boards with 30+ column types adapt to virtually any workflow without coding | Real-time collaboration is genuinely excellent — multiple designers can work simultaneously without conflicts or lag | Slackbot's contextual awareness of your team's conversations and files eliminates constant app-switching — it actually knows what you've been working on |
| Biggest drawback | 3-seat minimum on all paid plans means solo users and 2-person teams pay for unused seats | Performance degrades noticeably on complex files with hundreds of artboards or heavy plugins | AI features like Slackbot and summarisation require paid plans, pricing out smaller teams who'd benefit most from automation |
