Most teams are currently doing some form of standup meetings. Whether they\u2019re sticking to the Agile principles or just need to keep their entire team updated regardless of the work methodology they\u2019re using, daily standups are part of every team\u2019s routine.<\/span><\/p>\n

But most teams stick to classic standup meetings that can take hours and you still risk not going over everything. <\/span>Instead, we\u2019re focusing on 8+ core daily standup tools and adjacent helper apps to make for better standup meetings.<\/b><\/p>\n

Features to consider when choosing a standup tool<\/span><\/h2>\n

Before jumping to the list of daily standup meeting apps, let\u2019s have a brief look at what you need to pay attention to when choosing a tool:<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

    \n
  • Consider your main goals and the features you need:<\/b> Besides the obvious purpose of daily standup as a way of keeping up to date with new changes, you probably have some secondary goals you need help with. These include removing background noises during the actual meetings, running regular polls, scheduling meeting rooms easier, and more. There\u2019s no tool on the market to do all of these at once so you\u2019ll have to use multiple apps or their extensions.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Check if your current video conferencing tool integrates with any of the standup tools: <\/b>Zoom, for instance, has multiple apps for tools like Polly and Krisp, making it easier for you to use multiple solutions at the same time. Besides video conferencing tools, consider standup software that\u2019s easy to connect to your core project management hub so you\u2019ll keep everything in one place.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
      \n
    • Test the tool beforehand for ease of use:<\/b> This point is easy to cross off your list as most of the apps below are super easy to use for any newbie. Opting for standup software with a low learning curve ensures you can onboard new hires with no extra training for standup tech.<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Budget:<\/b> Commonly, standup meetings require more time investment than money expenses. That\u2019s why the majority of the tools on this list come with a free version that covers small teams and basic features. Features worth paying for include extra security options, advanced goal tracking and reporting, and no limits to the number of meetings or users.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
