Overview

Microsoft Whiteboard is a cloud-based whiteboard software designed to help teams draw shapes, create tables, edit content, and comment at the same time on a digital canvas. The pen-based interface lets users add images, post sticky notes, type, draw, and move content across the canvas.

Lessonspace is a collaborative whiteboard that lets tutors teach visually on an infinite shared canvas with subject-specific tools to help students understand concepts. The platform allows teachers to use subject-specific tools, like our Equation and Graph Editor, to teach STEM concepts.

Pros

“Accessibility, options for different pens and drawing tools, and smooth writing using mouse pad with small range.”

“Microsoft Whiteboard helped a lot to draw concepts and bring them to life using MS Teams meeting and chat boxes.”
JA

Joseph A.

Agile Consultant

“I also wish there were more sticky notes and tools you could use in the software.”

Pros

“many tools for different forms of learning and student demographics, the integration of the library and co browser and screen share capabilities are great along with the equation tools”
NO

Naya O.

Tutor

“Before Lessonspace, I actively thought to myself, I wish there were a way of sending animated confetti (like a text message can send) when my student finishes a big project, so we can celebrate together. And then I arrived in Lessonspace and found confetti AND fireworks, both of which I use excessively when my students succeed.”
CK

Cara K.

Teacher

“Lessonspace is a very useful tool to deliver lessons, as I have used it now for just over 2 years and have found that it has a lot of very useful tools: Not least its whiteboard function which lets me upload worksheets so that I can work on them with my students in real time”

Cons

“Occasionally it also lags with larger boards, which can interrupt the flow of work.”

Jason Y.

Software Engineer

“The only con I have come across from time to time is that sometime hesitates when using it. If in the middle of a meeting, this can be discouraging.”
JL

Jill L.

HR Manager

“The selector tool is not intuitive and moving objects around is not as simple as it should be.”
DD

Sr PM

Cons

“Tutoring companies such as mine, subscribe to the platform to deliver our product - teaching students. If something isn't working, we cannot do business.”
SA

Suzanne A.

Owner

“Moreover, sometimes I have a "bug" where the text disappears (that I or the student wrote) and there's no way of using the reverse option to get it back, so for it to come back and fix the issue I have to share my screen and unshare it and then it appears.”
VM

Veronika M.

Tutor

“Even when turning the phone sideways, when still sees a very limited view – there doesn't seem to be a fullscreen option from the learners side.”
