Planning at scale: a challenge for any online whiteboard
PI planning is a team session where goals for the quarter are discussed and dependencies, resources and key initiatives are agreed on. This process requires serious visualization and the involvement of every participant. Now imagine more than 100 people at once working on the same interactive online whiteboard.
The Bitrix24 team used to run strategy sessions in Miro simply because it was the standard. They didn't think about switching tools until data security became an issue. They needed a reliable Russian solution that met information security requirements — and flip became that service.
Why they chose flip — and how it worked out
This time, the entire PI planning took place in flip — a Russian online whiteboard for business that is actively evolving as an alternative to Western solutions.
“flip performed excellently: at the peak, more than 100 people were working on one board at the same time — reliably, with no lag. That was the benchmark that made it clear we definitely don't need a Western counterpart.”
Yuri Voloshin, Head of the Product Division at Bitrix24

Run planning meetings, retros, OKR sessions and workshops
Hold visual brainstorms and give presentations
Set up access and roles, and invite people without registration
Export frames, work with files and add AI images
Use the service in the cloud as SaaS or on-premise
