Kollabe
5.6Agile meetings made easy — retros, standups and planning poker
Kollabe began life as a planning poker tool and has more recently extended into retrospectives — the estimation side remains the centre of gravity, with retros and standups added as adjacent rituals rather than the headline product. It now bundles 600+ icebreakers, anonymous voting, AI-generated summaries and sync-back to Jira, GitHub, Linear and Azure DevOps in a flat <strong>per-space</strong> workspace, though the retro experience is younger and less battle-tested than its estimation roots.

Kollabe — pros
- + Flat per-space pricing — unlimited team members on Premium ($29/mo)
- + Bundles retros, standups, planning poker and icebreakers in one tool
- + No-signup join links lower friction for ad-hoc participants
- + Direct sync-back to Jira, GitHub, Linear and Azure DevOps
- + Public API and MCP server access on Premium
Kollabe — cons
- − No Slack or Microsoft Teams integration
- − No SOC 2 / no advertised GDPR posture — weak for enterprise procurement
- − No dedicated health-check, team-radar or longitudinal pulse feature
- − Solo-founder operation; SSO/SAML and SLA gated behind Enterprise contact-sales
- − Free tier capped at ~4 meetings/month with 7-day history
Miro — pros
- + Enormous template library (5,000+) and Miroverse community for retro formats
- + AI clustering groups sticky notes by sentiment, tag, author and keyword; Sidekicks and Flows extend AI deeper into the canvas
- + Best-in-class integration catalog (Jira, Azure DevOps, Asana, Confluence, Slack, Teams) with two-way sync
- + Enterprise-grade SSO, SCIM, audit logs, ISO 27001, ISO 42001 (AI governance) and EU/US/AU data residency
- + Same canvas works for discovery, planning and retros — no context switching
Miro — cons
- − Per-seat pricing: a 24-person org pays ~$192/mo on the Starter tier (annual), well above retro-native tools at that headcount
- − No native health checks, mood tracking or longitudinal team-pulse
- − No recurring retros, scheduling, action carryover or cross-team rollup — facilitators rebuild structure each sprint
- − Jira/Azure DevOps/Asana sync and SSO sit behind the $20/user/mo Business tier; SCIM and audit logs only on Enterprise (30-seat min)
- − No built-in retro report or action-tracker dashboard
