Thanks! Cofounder here, happy to answer any questions. While AWW has been around for some time we've seen a big surge (~6x) in the past two months due to current situation (as did most online/collaborative tools). While AWW can be used directly on site, we also have an embeddable version, for example some interviewing startups use us as part of their web-based interviewing workflows. Edit to add: AWW was launched her…

Thank you! Seriously AWW is an awesome app.

Miro.com is great. It is so much more than a whiteboard. We use it for brainstorm sessions, retros and all sort of things.

Mural.co - other than miro, it allows unlimited anonymous co-editing without a need to sihn on. Since we use it only occasionally, we just have a single facilitator account for the team

Google Jamboard + Wacom Intuos tablet with stylus [1] [1] https://www.wacom.com/en-us/products/pen-tablets/wacom-intuo...

Which hardware are you using exactly? There are a lot of different price points; I’d love to find the cheapest that is still good enough to be useful.

I’d love to hear what hardware people are using. I’m looking at buying hardware for some of our team, but obviously woild like to find the right cost/quality ratio.

I've used Mural.co quite successfully as well. I think we probably bought an enterprise license. Collaborative, full-featured, almost as good as a whiteboard/butcher paper and a tall stack of stickie notes.

Which whiteboard apps have the best integrations? I've been trying to find one that can 2-way sync with fields in airtable so that i can build a dynamic org chart.
