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. > > Verdict: Rated **4.6/5** by 24 users.

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. > > 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 ----- ### "A powerful visual workspace that goes beyond whiteboarding" — 5.0/5 > **Gerald** | *9 December 2020* | Management Consulting | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **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 > > 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. ----- ### "Deon – Powerful Digital Workspace" — 3.0/5 > **Daniel** | *8 January 2021* | Industrial Automation | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Deon is easy to use (User friendly). It so easy to keep an overview of a project. You can prepare divers Room (Workspace) with templates and work together with more people. You can edit your documents of the SharePoint direct in Deon. > > **Cons**: Deon don´t support file with Macros. > > We use Deon for synchronized workshops with many people. During the Workshop we need to edit and see simultaneously different documents (Excel, Word, PFD, PP). Deon is a good tool to work online together at the same time. ----- ### "A Milestone Tool for better Self and Project Management - all at one glance" — 5.0/5 > **Uwe** | *11 June 2021* | Broadcast Media | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **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. > > When I discovered mindmapping 30 years ago, it excited me. It changed my life. I rate DEON in a similar way. It takes the many barriers out of collaboration and the computer and radically simplifies work. Dream. ----- ### "DEON is the digital collaboration tool" — 5.0/5 > **Tim** | *19 October 2022* | Management Consulting | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **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. > > 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\! ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/245859/deon?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/245859/deon) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
