Leave a Review Canvas Model Design
  • Mediocre

    The app is a decent implementation, better than the official Osterwalder app, at any rate. It has several functional and feature shortcomings that knock it down two stars.

    1- It has a tendency to forget where postits are placed when you move in and out of a canvas or the app. Sliding a bit up or down in Value Prop is ok, but covering another or accidentally moving to Channels is not.
    2- It cannot group canvases together. I have a set of canvases for one business, and then a different set for another. In this app, they are all lumped together. This is a simple to implement but crucial feature.
    3- It has a tendency to lose postits when you leave and return to the app. It is infrequent, but it happens.
    4- Support is non existent, although that is common for ios apps.

  • Ok but easy to do with any tool

    I really don't see the big value of this. It provides a basic structure and simplified graphical framework that you could easily do with a ppt slide and a word doc. I guess it's ok for play but really, is a great example of a tablet app replacing what one could do with just an editor and a drawing program.

    Not bad at all and a nice try' maybe even great potential as a unifying 'cabinet' for pulling together multiple docs but again, a moderately competent person could build a better system using standard tools.

  • great app

    The app is very easy to use and useful if you want to set and share your business idea!
    More than I expected for the price

    Looking forward for collaboration features.
  • Has promise, but it's not finished yet...

    This is a nice, easy app top get started with business model canvas writing. It has good hints for each section and the "post-it" note function works really well.

    The #1 thing it needs is some export / sharing functions beyond the existing "email an image." I want to be able to export the text as well, in *some* format (almost doesn't matter right now). Would also be very useful to have Dropbox or iCloud support.

    I hope the devs keep going because this is a good start and it will need keep improving to retain a place on my iPad. :)

  • Business Canvas

    A fantastically easy tool to use either individually or with a group.
    Clarifies options and makes it easy to start and track any project. I wonder how I managed before.
  • Easy to Iterate

    One of the cool things about this particular one is the inclusion of the Validation Numbers, this help me to know if a particular model has been tested. Cant wait to see the collaboration options. But so far its easy to create canvases.
  • Great Usability

    One of the most important things in an app for me is the user experience. The gesture-based interface and animations for this app make it a joy to use. I'm really excited about the work I've been able to do with it so far.
  • Simple but useful

    Good, useful, inexpensive. Alternatives are expensive and less flexible.

    Two small tweaks requested:
    * Ability to models built with the clean model template
    * Bug fix: text color selection doesn't display on canvas.

    Keep up the good work!

    == Original review ==
    Especially appreciate the clean model template, so users can create own models. Please add the ability to title the clean model sections.

  • Really simple

    does one thing and does it well.

    BUT (and its the reason it doesn't get 5 stars) - why doesn't it auto-save? The number of times I've lost work as I switched to another app to check on something; if I wanted to deal with that nonsense I'd use Microsoft Word.
  • Needs work

    1. Add a link in the App for support PLEASE!
    2. Canvas layouts included are not as advertised - unacceptable
    3. No explanations for the processes
    4. No tappable links to sites offering usage or process guidance
    The developers need to explain how to use this tool in addition to showing the feature overlay
