Major con: You have to sign-in to join a bord (no anonymous join)

Probably the most fun I've had in a retro. Except for the time we retro'd our sprint through interpretive dance.

Pros:

  • Fast
  • Our scrum team can collaborate without any lag or problems
  • Feels like a video game
  • Varied amount of templates, helps keep the team engaged week on week

Cons:

  • Board styles are largely based around retros and collaborative sessions, though there are a few product templates in there. It's a little more difficult to create artefacts like storyboards and customer journeys
  • Not setup for long-form writing

What is Metro Retro?

Metro Retro is a web application created to help teams run productive, engaging and fun retrospectives. It uses real-time updates, adaptable templates and a quirky sense of humour to emulate as closely as possible the feeling of a session run with paper based post-its on a physical whiteboard. It's great for distributed teams as well as co-located teams!

Users join a shared board and add post-its to the various categories as they would in a traditional retrospective. Initially, post-it content is hidden to provide users a way of creating their ideas in private. Then, when they are ready, the users reveal their post-its to each other and discuss the ideas as a group.

There are various tools available to aid presentation and discussion including post-it highlighting, emoji reactions and pointing arrows. Once the discussion is over, the contents of the board can be exported and archived in other tools (e.g. company wiki) or just left as is - boards are always available to come back to later.
