About DEON

Organizations can create bespoke and interactive structures and save them as templates, multipage documents, and spreadsheets to enhance data visualization. DEON is independent of screen size, resolution, or aspect ratio, and it enables users to combine different display hardware, like LED with LCD. In addition, managers can also embed multiple live sources from capture cards, cameras, MS Remote Desktops, and other web sources in real-time without extra wiring.

The collaborative platform allows multiple users to manage and share tasks, projects, and updates simultaneously in real-time. It lets project managers organize projects and tasks, assign them to different collaborators, track workflows, and track team progress from a single, combined dashboard. DEON also promotes easy and instant communication between team members across shift changes, enabling firms to scale and span large-scale projects to optimize workforce delivery.

Zhe german visual collaboration Wurst

Overall: - It is not cheaper, but also not more expensive than other tools - It is pretty intuitive to use. We already had a nice experience of a workshop with probably 6 net active hours on the platform and it was amazing: The Template-Sharing function was a highlight in that session. - Combined with state-of-the-art Breakout sessions (e.g. available in MS-Teams or Zoom), you can have a lot of fun and literally “go in and out” of rooms (and choose whom are you talking or not-talking to). This should be considered normal nowadays. #normalizedigitalization

Pros:

What do I like best? - DEON is a german company and runs its server under the german data protection regulations (DSVO). We use it to collaborate with our customers (german SME’s). Typically, german customers opt for german providers because of they do not want any third-party authority (e.g. US government agencies) have access to their data. I don’t like it, but on-premise is also possible. - I have had very nice support from the DEON Team, thanks to [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN]. He was willing to share his insightful glance to the tool, to proactively troubleshoot / avoid upcoming difficulties in my planned workshops. And he also is reachable on Whatsapp. Yes, that is normal too. - Its intuitive front-end lets you improvise, when you are not sure how to do it.

Cons:

What do I dislike? - DEON does not currently offer an “introduction” webinar or enablement sessions. Your abilities to use the tool rely solely in the https://deon.de/help/learn/. - The capabilities of Live-Sources are limited to one live-Camera and is disappointing, that it is nowhere mentioned. It rises the expectation of somehow having a conversation within the DEON Space, but this functionality is not expected. We use MS-Teams for voice & video. - I understand, that DEON tries to load content from Sharepoint once, and if its not successful, it doesn’t load it again – unless you activate this embedded frame again with a left click. When using several files, it is a hell lot of clicks (for example, we were 8 workshop participants and we had 8 files; there is a total of 64 clicks that had to be made, and it cost not only precious time but confusion for users not familiar with this issue). - I don’t like the annual-licensing pricing, it should be monthly. Yes, that is normal too. - Is there a Community? I see that other providers actively promote their communities and have loads of free-to-use templates. I didn’t have much luck finding one for DEON.

Reasons for choosing DEON

We chose DEON over MIRO and MURAL. Both other tools are very good for developers or people who usually want to have a very simple communication platform and are otherwise using complex or complicated views. In our case, however, we wanted to have a visual communication platform for more demanding content; e.g. non-redundant linked documents and clear rights of access for every user, on demand. There is a lot of functionality overlap, compared to other tools.

A powerful visual workspace that goes beyond whiteboarding

I am designing and facilitating synchronized collaboration events (complex workshops) with large groups over a couple of days to accelerate alignment and decision making processes. With DEON a can run simple but also very complex and ambitious workshops in digital, virtual and hybrid settings.

Functionality

Pros:

There are three major reasons why I use DEON: 1) Strong data integration: more than 40 data formats can be made visible and editable inside a DEON space; static formats like multipage documents (PPTX, PDF etc.) but also dynamic content (videos, websites, live applications); after a workshop it's easy to export a PPTX with its annotations (e.g. colored post-its, scribbles) in its original format ("as a PPTX with annotation") => this makes post-production much easier since all the texts inside the post-its can be copied & pasted into the actual PPTX with the need of retyping them again 2) Freedom to act: the infinite canvas gives infinite space for creativity; there are hundreds of ways in creating DEON spaces - to give them a structure, to lay methodologies behind it; to create, share and use templates; it's easy to use, very intuitive for most of the users 3) Easy to share: it's very simple to invite others into a DEON room to start deep realtime, visual collaboration

Cons:

Currently the web version is not that powerful and for MAC users there is just a beta version available

Reasons for switching to DEON

Whiteboarding and colored post-its are nice features - but they do not cover the requirements I have when I design and facilitate large group workshops. Post production is time consuming since you need to retype all digital post-its again if you want to "transfer" their content into a PPTX (for example).

A Milestone Tool for better Self and Project Management - all at one glance

Pros:

I have all the project documents, plans, videos, audios, presentations and ideas, everything that is important to me, clearly laid out on a desk in front of me and I can work on it alone or with others. I don't have to reassemble the project at every appointment, but can simply open it directly.No software can offer me such a good project overview without barriers on a desktop interface. And I can look into all documents as if I had them right in front of me. World class.

Cons:

That it was not designed for Apple users from the beginning. It is such an Apple philosophy that is palpable here. Make the consumer strong. Now there is already an Apple software from DEON and this is being developed further. I am so happy.

Reasons for choosing DEON

Because friends and coworkers already work with DEON and so I can continue to work with them also in other projects. It's so helpful and accelerates the outcome of our work, and our work speed.

DEON is the digital collaboration tool

Overall DEON helps the organization to save a lot of time and effort in many ways. It makes some meetings unnecessary as you can work with the team and be updated at any time. I also appreciate the simplicity of the use of DEON, as the program is very intuitive and easy to learn. The fact that DEON only has a 30-minute video of how to work with DEON, proves this point. The price is a little bit higher than usual but for me, it is worth it!

Pros:

My daily life is made easier by DEON, especially when I'm collaborating with colleagues and clients. By using this software, the organization can spend less time looking for different documents and become more agile. Workshops and meetings are more efficient when participants can work together in one room. Aside from its ease of use, DEON's support is excellent at helping clients with their problems. You can also contribute to the development of the software by sending your ideas or thoughts to the support team. DEON's advantages over Miro or Mural were the reason for our choice.

Cons:

As DEON is still developing, not all the functions are fully developed. Also, the waiting time for the software to load, when you open a full workspace, can be very long.

Functionality

Pros:

I work with Deon every day (in my team and with customers), and I am really impressed by some of the features - also compared to Mural or Miro. I like about Deon is the stability and that all basic functions/features are well implemented. The focus here is really on the central elements. Also, the copy&paste function is better integrated. With Mural, I had some trouble when copying Post-its. Better are also the export functions (pdf, png, ppt, ...) and the compatibility with SharePoint / Office. This helps a lot with documentation after workshops. Also excellent is the zoom factor and the infinite board. Others are often limited to a certain size. With Deon you can create massive walls.

Cons:

The facilitator functions could be more intuitive and that workshop attendees have to register (it's an obstacle for workshops)

Reasons for choosing DEON

Customer requirement but in the end better performance, more intuitive and beeter features.

Reasons for switching to DEON

Initial due to customer requirement.

Pros:

Having all files and texts placed on one huge canvas, being able to amend and work on it simultaneously with others, placing screenshots, pictures, videos and more visually next to each other, makes it so easy to keep an overview of a project. At the same time it saves so much time as all team members work on the same canvas and I do not have to send endless emails back and forth.

Cons:

still waiting for a full Mac and mobile version. But working on a desktop makes more sense anyway as the endless canvas makes it hard to be seen fully on a smaller device anyway.

Workshops with our external clients: If theres no physical meeting possible by using DEON we are able to work as if we are there: Usage as a digital flipchart, Whiteboard, market places, etc. By now we also used it for process analysis and designs like a swimlane analysis or value stream analysis.

Pros:

o Easy use even for “non-digital-natives” o Integration of MS Office files in Deon-Space, don’t know another tool, where it is as easy as here! o Easy link of frames to arrows and so on, very useful for process designs, especially compared to other collaboration APPs; I use that a lot! o Templates make it very easy to standardize your work together in the whole company

Cons:

o Usage of a different logic of navigating compared to MS Office products. For me its possible to switch, but for customers, who are not using DEON so often, its difficult o Details: o If u use shapes like boxes, tringels, etc. it is complicated ti integrate texts within the shapes. Could be easier o The design of text is complicated. Why not use the usual word possibilities for text format? o The moderation tool is not very convenient. i.E. conceptboard has a much easier way integrated (just copy there…) o For some customers it is not easy to sign up due to internal rules of their IT. Therefore it would be awesome, if me (as a DEON user) could invite others to join my “project” just by a link

Ease of use

Functionality

Pros:

Basically easy to use Workshops can also be designed hands on quickly An infinite amount of content can be displayed in one room Drag and drop function for files, websites etc. very quickly and easily Cloud integration so that changes are always directly synchronized Easy sharing possible Parallel real-time work without limits Good support, quick response

Cons:

It happens quickly that levels / containers shift, especially when many people are working on it at the same time, that disrupts the flow sometimes With Excel tables with several tabs, you cannot see in real time where the moderator is and everyone has to switch manually between the sheets. This can only be avoid by sharing your screen in Teams or ZOOM. There are loading times for Sharepoint files; if this is exceeded, DEON aborts and you have to manually update with a click on each file No standard template available yet An introductory impulse about areas of application and possible uses would be helpful
