GoRetro — pros
- + Generous free tier with unlimited public boards and team members
- + Polished, real-time facilitation UX with strong template library
- + 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
- − Slack integration sits behind paid tiers; SAML SSO requires Organization tier
- − Integration breadth is narrow: no native MS Teams, Azure DevOps, GitHub, Linear, Confluence or Trello
- − AI story is thin: 'Joker cards' and meeting recap export rather than real AI clustering, summaries or sentiment
- − Async is just a multi-day feedback deadline, not a structured async flow; no whiteboard, no scheduling/recurring retros
- − Per-team pricing scales unevenly across many squads, and cross-team rollups are thin
Retro Rabbit — pros
- + Genuine Slack-first workflow — capture notes via /retro during the sprint, not just at retro time
- + Reduces recency bias by collecting feedback continuously, not in a 5-minute silent write
- + Simple, opinionated UX with drag/drop grouping and dot voting
- + CarrotIQ AI handles grouping, action items and summaries on the Pro AI plan
- + Per-team flat pricing scales cleanly for small squads
Retro Rabbit — cons
- − Slack is the only chat/issue-tracker integration — no Jira, Teams, Confluence, GitHub, Linear or Azure DevOps
- − No health checks, team radars or longitudinal trend reporting
- − No org-level dashboards, cross-team rollups or action kanban
- − Enterprise controls are thin: SSO is Enterprise-tier only, no SCIM, no audit logs, no documented GDPR posture
- − Per-team flat pricing — 3 teams of 8 lands at $90/mo on the Starter tier
