Best for facilitated workshops with voting and a timer
Klaxoon is a board for meetings and workshops, with dot voting, a timer and a facilitator who can sync everyone's screen. Starter is $24.90 a month for up to 4 Pro users, the free plan allows one open activity, and the vendor is rebranding it as Klaxoon by Wrike.
Who Klaxoon is for
- Fits if you run workshops and want voting and a facilitator view
- Works for a team already on Wrike, Teams or Jira
Who Klaxoon is not for
- Pricey if you are one person, since Starter starts at $24.90 a month
- Tight if you stay free, with 1 open activity and 50 ideas per board
- Watch out: Starter covers 1 to 4 Pro users, and 5 or more needs Enterprise with no public price
- Watch out: Klaxoon says paid amounts are not refunded unless the law requires it
- Skip it if you want a desktop or phone app, as none is named
Why Klaxoon gets a 2.0
Five grades, each with its reason. The GPA is their average: an A is 4 points, an F is none.
- DValue for money$24.90 a host a month billed annually for up to 4 Pro users sits at the start of the category's dearest tenth. One person pays all of it, and 5 or more users go to a sales quote.
- CFree plan and trialThe free plan is 1 open activity, 5 contributors per activity, 50 ideas per board and 500 MB. The page calls it a trial with limited access.
- CFeaturesBoards, voting, questions, a timer and screen sync. Gaps the listing shows: 200-plus templates and co-facilitation need Starter, and Jira sync too.
- CEase of useNo store rating on record. You set up each activity yourself.
- BPlatforms and integrationsWeb only, with Microsoft Teams, Google Workspace, Wrike and Jira listed.

Keep Klaxoon, or make your own?
Keep it
The plain part of Klaxoon you could make: templates and mind mapping. What surrounds it you could not. The 4 things listed below take a company, not a weekend.
That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 50 of the 61 other whiteboard and mind map tools grade higher. It costs $298.80 a year.
What you could make
- Templates and mind mapping: an app builder makes these well.
What you could not
- An endless canvas that stays smooth with hundreds of things on it.
- Several people working in it at the same moment.
- AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
- People on the other end: facilitators. No app builder makes those.
What this rests on. Klaxoon’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
