What TeamRetro users say!

Using TeamRetro for the first time was AMAZING

The interface is clean and super intuitive and the flow was easy to navigate. I love the different options for retro types and the sticky note and dot voting experience was great. And finally, the ability to create actions was a fantastic finish. Your team should be SO PROUD.

Extremely valuable for a remote teams

There is no other product on the market that delivers this number of features at this level of quality at this price. It is extremely valuable for a remote teams, but we also found value using it for in person retros for its organization, anonymous capabilities, and reporting.

Makes our retrospective less intense and much more constructive

Probably one of the best applications we've used to conduct a retrospective. Seeing everyone interact with the board and share their opinions was awesome! The integrations with our Jira board is great. Allows us to track our goals and ensure they're owned. Thank You, thumbs up from me????

TeamRetro enables team to pre-record thoughts for meetings

We believe that in the software development and consultancy business, human factors can make the difference between ‘okay’ and ‘awesome’. That’s why we do weekly check-ins. Using TeamRetro also means team members can write down their thoughts ahead of the weekly team meeting.

Fun way to collect feedback after a sprint

My favorite thing about TeamRetro is that you can do it anonymously. People can share how they truly feel about how things went without having to be public. It's also a fun way to collect feedback after a sprint.

No hassle with visualizing the data

The health check feature is just awesome. We've done them once in a while when our teams came together and it was always a pain to consolidate. Now I can pull this with a click at any given time. No hassle with visualizing the data or a boring introduction to new members.

MetroRetro FAQ’s : General

What is MetroRetro?

MetroRetro is an online tool that acts as a digital whiteboard allowing you to create zones, workspaces and design a retrospective activity from scratch. People add sticky notes onto a board. They then click on reactions, votes and tokens to add to the board. It uses realtime, adaptable templates and a quirky sense of humour to emulate a retrospective. It provides a wide array for design and collaboration tools designed for brainstorming sessions similar to Miro and Mural.

On the other hand, TeamRetro, MetroRetro’s alternative, is a modern and easy UI platform that offers an easy to use – ready to go set of retrospectives as well as health checks. It has guided step by step facilitation, inbuilt timers and easy action creation features to help you keep your meetings fast and effective.

Is MetroRetro free?

Yes and no: You can use Metro Retro for free if you do not exceed a certain number of board objects on the retro board(digital whiteboard) and have a maximum of 30 people in the team. After that, however, you will have to pay for the Metro Retro Tool. Prices start from either $25 per host or $6 per team member per month on a basic plan.

Meanwhile, MetroRetro’s alternative – TeamRetro, is free for 30 days. Pricing for a single team is $25 with additional discounts for additional teams. There is no limit on the number of team members. See here for pricing information.

How do I add sticky notes in MetroRetro?

To add a sticky note in MetroRetro as part of your online brainstorming session, first click on the board that you want to participate in. Next, click on the side panel or bar and choose the sticky note that you want to add. Then click on the region you want to add the sticky note to. You can choose the colour of the note and resize it to fit your text in. When adding a sticky note, be sure not to cover up someone else’s sticky note. When moving to another topic or region you have to change the colour, unless this has been preset by the facilitator.

On the other hand, to add a Sticky Note or idea in TeamRetro, simply click in the region you want to add an idea to and start typing. Hit enter and it can be shared anonymously or with your initials. The colour is auto-adjusted and you can also comment on ideas.

Can I integrate my existing workflow to MetroRetro?

MetroRetro can only integrate with Google workspace at the moment while its alternative, TeamRetro, can integrate with a wide range of applications including Jira, Asana, Trello, and many more. See the full list of integrations here.

How do I cancel my MetroRetro subscription?

To cancel your subscription, you will have to go to the billing management page in your account and cancel from there. You will then be downgraded to the free plan automatically.

Is MetroRetro secure and data-protected?

MetroRetro has taken some measures for app security, privacy and data protection. Data is stored in the EU (Amsterdam) via the US service “Digital Ocean”. Access to the infrastructure is protected from intruders by public/private keys and/or 2FA. A full overview of security, privacy and data protection measures can be found on the company’s website.

MetroRetro’s alternative – TeamRetro, is Soc2 Type2 and GDPR compliant and can be hosted in either in the US or the EU. Detailed information can be found here.

How do I vote on MetroRetro?

To add a vote to an idea, you have to select the voting tool from the side panel and left click on the on the sticky note you want to vote for. All votes are seen by everyone. If you want to remove a vote you have cast, right click and your most recent vote will be removed. You can zoom in and out of the board as needed to find the item you want to vote for. Note that your idea may be moved by others depending on which position it was moved to. When all votes have been completed, the facilitator can end the round of voting.

On the other hand, voting in TeamRetro is a separate step and you simply click + or – on the idea to vote. All votes are always independent to reduce bias and the votes are automatically tallied and ordered. You can talk through all the votes with ideas in presentation mode, starting with the top voted idea.
