GoRetro — pros
- + Flat per-team pricing ($29/team/mo) with unlimited members per team, plus a free plan for one team
- + Polished, real-time facilitation UX with per-board anonymity toggles (hide author, hide cards, hide votes)
- + Bundles planning poker, capacity calculator and sprint monitor with retros
- + Tight Jira Cloud integration for sprint-data-driven discussions
- + SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001 and SAML SSO available on Organization tier
GoRetro — cons
- − <strong>No published product updates since 2023</strong> — changelog last moved 23 May 2023, blog 28 Jul 2023
- − Free plan is thin: exports, retro analytics, Jira sync, happiness index, polls and icebreakers are all Premium-gated
- − Integration breadth is narrow — Jira and Slack only, with no native MS Teams, Azure DevOps, GitHub, Linear, Confluence or Trello
- − AI story is thin: 'Joker cards' and a meeting recap export rather than real AI clustering, summaries or sentiment
- − No public API or webhooks; async is a multi-day feedback deadline, not a structured async flow, and there is no scheduling or recurring retros
Retrium — pros
- + Battle-tested five-phase guided facilitation flow
- + Anonymous brainstorming and grouping by design
- + Persistent team-room action plan that carries forward between retros
- + Team Radar health check — up to seven customisable spokes, anonymous 1–5 scoring
- + Per-team-room pricing with unlimited users on every plan
Retrium — cons
- − No free plan — 30-day trial only, and the Fishbone technique stays paid-only during it
- − Integrations stop at Jira Cloud and a <em>still-beta</em> Slack app — no Microsoft Teams, Azure DevOps, GitHub, Linear or Confluence
- − <strong>No AI features at all</strong> — no summary, clustering, action-item extraction or sentiment
- − The only API is an Enterprise-gated SCIM 2.0 user-provisioning endpoint; no webhooks, and export stops at CSV and TXT
- − No published product updates since <strong>August 2024</strong> — the help centre's yearly updates series ends at 2024
