Hi Madhuri, Thank you very much for taking the time to leave a review! We're delighted to hear that you enjoy using TeleRetro. Should you have any questions or feature requests, please don't hesitate to contact us. Kind regards, TeleRetro team
Best Retrospective Tool I've Used!
Comments: Love it!
Pros:
I love that the interface is modern and allows for customization. The beautiful background options are always a hit with the team. It's also helpful to be able to customize the columns, but I like that there are various templates we can choose from as well. All of these things combined make for an experience that is fresh, fun, and new each time we use the tool in our Team Retros.
Cons:
It would be helpful if it didn't allow you to vote on the "how do you feel column" as it's not relevant to us in conducting our retro. I'd rather the team only vote on things that went well and things that need improvement. I also wish we didn't need to worry about licensing.

Good product
Pros:
Easy to use, fun, i liked the gif which is shared to all users
Cons:
Improvement on the ui Better markdown integration.
Alternatives Considered:
Great product and takes the admin out of an important task
Pros:
Ease of use and how quick it is for users to get on a take part
Cons:
Perhaps providing more hand holding when used by less experienced PM's
Alternatives Considered:
Love it
Comments: We went from using Google spreadsheet to keep track of our real estate transactions and tasks which were very cumbersome to this and it has made all the difference in the world. I love that my team leader can go in and add things to my to do list and I automatically get a notification on my phone instead of having to dig through spreadsheets. I love customizing the cards and being able to add due dates and colors
Pros:
I love being able to coordinate with my team so easily.
Cons:
I do wish there was some options to add to the boards other than cards and lists
Retrospectives for the win
Comments: With TeleRetro we keep our team updated on each other and give a clear overview of a sprint’s performance.
Pros:
We mostly use the retrospectives feature of TeleRetro to wrap-up our sprints and it gives an open space for everyone on the team. The board reminds one of TrellaBoards but make it even more intuitive. The workflow is also pretty straightforward and allowing people to vote messages up to then be able to discuss them makes the whole deal for us.
Cons:
Some components in the retrospectives are clumsy. For example, when you drag cards together they merge, but unmerging is impossible without a bit of work. Also the limitation on the number of emojis one can select, while seemingly a less important aspect, it still sometimes is missing to convey the right message.

Kind regards, TeleRetro team Update on 14/02/2022: Hi Riccardo, thanks again for your feedback! Just to let you know that we added a new 'Ungroup' function to easily unmerge cards. We also added an Emoji picker to let users select any emoji to their cards and allowing arbitrary emojis as reactions to cards is coming too.
Overall like the software.
Comments: used for retro's and very positive.
Pros:
simplicity. simple to use, simple ui, not too many features. More features is not always better.
Cons:
hard to copy&paste out of the software. I want to be able to send the retro summary as an email. I want to adjust the volume of the icebreaker.

Hi Jay, Thank you very much for your kind review and great suggestions! We just added volume control to Youtube and Vimeo players some media players like Spotify have a limitation on this but we will constantly work on improving this! Great idea about sharing the retro summary, we will add this in an upcoming release! Kind regards, TeleRetro team Update on 15/09/21: You can now also send the retro as an email it's available from the retro via Summary > Send this Retro. Thanks again for you feedback, and if you ever have any further suggestions, we'd be very happy to hear from you at [email protected]
The Ultimate restrospection tool
Comments: It is overall a very good experience and this product satisfies all the requirements for managing retrspectives
Pros:
This software aligns to Agile principles to the core and helps my team reflect the thoughts easily. The best part is that the team members can just access it anonymously which is sometimes helpful in sharing their thoughts without any inhibitions. The tool is simple, clean and does not require huge procedure to start with. It also comes with cool features like background theme, icebreaker music, voting, timers , gifs etc. The actions can be easily added and retained across sprints for the team to review .
Cons:
It would be beneficial it come be integrated with other softwares. Right now, the tool provided some options , but they are not straight forward
Easy to use retro boards
Comments: Easy to use
Pros:
History views of past retros and ease of use if creating new retorts and the voting to help with clubbing and collaboration
Cons:
Getting others logged in vs quests Figuring out how to stop and start voting if not logged in

Hi Rob, Thank you very much for your feedback, we're very pleased to hear that you enjoy using those TeleRetro features. Regarding signed-in vs guest users, at the moment we do require facilitators to be signed in, and allow guests as participants. We offer private retros on our Business plan too which requires all members to be signed in. We would be very interested to chat with you about improving the experience though. Feel free to reach us any time at [email protected]. Thanks again for your review & kind regards, TeleRetro team

Kind regards, TeleRetro team Update on 14/02/2022: Hi Fredrik, thanks again for your feedback! We have added the Ungroup function on the cards now.
Good Product
Comments: It was hard to figure out how to get everyone to use it at first, but it is simple once you get going. More training docs/videos would be great.
Pros:
It is easy to use and the team has given good feedback on the product. It is much easier than Jira Align, which is what we used previously.
Cons:
I don't like the memes at the bottom. I love using them in my personal life, but they are distracting during calls.
Great for retrospective meetings
Comments: Good one, planning to use this for long time.
Pros:
User friendly and intuitive. We noticed team provides more feedback on this tool. Nice reactions and emoji. A fun tool to work with.
Cons:
Icons and share and ratings on feedback would be helpful.
Teleretro makes retros easy

Cons:
it could use more configuration options
