Jotboard vs Lucidspark: The full picture
Lucidspark is part of the Lucid Visual Collaboration Suite alongside Lucidchart, and it is built for enterprise teams that need structured visual collaboration. It offers advanced facilitation tools like voting, timers, breakout boards, and tagging, along with templates for common workshop activities. The integration with Lucidchart allows teams to turn brainstorming sessions into polished diagrams. However, the free tier is heavily restricted with just 3 editable boards and a 60-object limit per document, which makes it impractical for regular use without a paid subscription.
Lucidspark is best suited for large organizations that need advanced facilitation features and already use Lucidchart for diagramming. If your team runs structured workshops with voting rounds, timed activities, and breakout sessions, Lucidspark’s enterprise-focused tools support that workflow. For smaller teams or individuals, though, the $7.95/month per-user pricing and strict free-tier limitations make it an expensive choice for basic whiteboarding.
Jotboard provides a simpler, more affordable alternative with unlimited boards and no object restrictions on the free plan. Instead of complex facilitation tools, Jotboard focuses on the essentials: sticky notes, pens, shapes, text boxes, images, and backgrounds on a clean slide-based canvas. With up to 5 free collaborators, real-time collaboration, Google sign-in, and PDF import and export, Jotboard covers everything most teams need for brainstorming and visual collaboration — without the enterprise price tag. Paid plans start at just $4/month, making Jotboard accessible to everyone.
“Jotboard is the Lucidspark alternative that we’ve been looking for. It has all the features we need and it’s much cheaper than the alternatives.”
