Review
James Smith
Mural is a useful tool for remote collaboration with colleagues and clients across different locations. It helps track progress, communicate easily, and gather feedback using features like flowcharts and mind maps. However, its user interface feels outdated, and the voting feature does not always work well.

Mural is essentially an interactive whiteboard that allows you to zoom in. It shows the locations of other users, making it easy to follow their work. Since Mural functions like a whiteboard, it’s simple for others to delete or erase content. However, the product can be confusing because it’s easy to alter others’ work, and using the ‘undo’ feature doesn’t always revert changes as expected.

Mural is core to all the work I do on a day-to-day basis. In this digital remote world, when working from home or with remote teams is way more frequent than being in person, a whiteboard collaboration tool is just essential for our every day work.
