Frequently asked questions
What does TeamRetro add that Echometer doesn't?
TeamRetro pairs health checks with a full retrospective and estimation suite. Echometer's retro sessions still start manually and it has no planning poker. TeamRetro adds retros you can schedule in advance, customizable templates, planning poker with preset decks plus your own, and SOC 2 Type 2 security, where Echometer is not SOC 2 certified.
Why do teams switch from Echometer to TeamRetro?
Echometer's strength is psychology-backed health checks: recurring pulses grounded in University of Münster research, with surveys that auto-schedule. Teams switch when they want the retrospective itself to go further. Each Echometer retro still starts manually, the template library sits around 50, and there's no planning poker for estimation. Chat integrations are thin too: Jira on every plan, but no Slack or MS Teams.
Is it hard to move from Echometer to TeamRetro?
No. Moving across is straightforward because there's nothing to migrate. Start your next retrospective from a ready-made template you can customize, invite the team by link, and carry any open actions forward so nothing slips between sessions. Pricing is a flat rate per team, with unlimited members on multi-team plans and no per-seat minimums, and you're covered by SOC 2 Type 2 and GDPR, hosted in the US or EU.
What is Echometer and how does it work?
Echometer is a browser-based tool that supports agile retrospectives, 1:1 meetings, and team health checks using psychological survey prompts and guided facilitation. TeamRetro also supports agile retrospectives, polling, health checks, team radars with built in icebreakers and also supports AI features to enhance productivity. TeamRetro's interface is purpose-built for smooth facilitation, no extra setup or learning curve required.
Who is Echometer designed for?
Echometer targets agile coaches, change managers, and HR teams looking to drive continuous improvement through regular surveys and structured 1:1s. TeamRetro is built to support self-empowered agile teams, Scrum Masters, leadership teams and executives, regardless of industry. It provides meeting summaries, overall team health checks, sentiment and topic analysis and insightful reports and analytics for decision making.
Is Echometer free?
Echometer offers limited free starter plans for both its tools (Retrospectives and 1:1 Health Check Meetings) but with notable restrictions. For 1:1 meetings, the free plan allows a manager to run up to two 1:1 series with unlimited meetings. For retrospectives, the free version lets one team run just one retro per month. Teams will quickly need to upgrade to access more functionality once the free 21 day trial is over. TeamRetro offers a 30 day free trial with full features and no limitations. You can facilitate as many meetings and have multiple teams, retros and health checks.
What is Echometer’s pricing or subscription plans?
Echometer has separate pricing for its 1:1 Meeting Tool and Retrospective Tool, and the Retrospective Tool comes with a three-week free trial before any subscription fee is charged. Echometer prices in EUR, not USD. For retrospectives, the Pro plan is EUR 29 per team/month billed annually (EUR 35 monthly), while the Business plan is EUR 49 per team/month billed annually (EUR 60 monthly), offering extras like SSO support, domain filtering, and priority support. For 1:1 meetings, plans start from EUR 29 per month per team lead on Pro, with no minimum seat count (Business needs at least 3 licenses). TeamRetro is simpler and costs less: the Single Team plan is €23 a month (€230 billed yearly) for up to 25 members, multi-team plans include unlimited members, and the price per team drops as you add teams, with unlimited retrospectives, health checks, integrations and facilitation tools on every plan.
Can Echometer integrate with other tools (like Jira)?
Yes, Echometer integrates with Jira on every plan, including the free Starter tier. There is no Slack or MS Teams integration. TeamRetro also supports direct Jira and Confluence integrations, along with Slack, MS Teams, and much more. See the full integration list here.
Do surveys remain anonymous?
In Echometer, feedback is anonymous by default, especially during retrospectives and peer feedback. When team members (peers) give feedback, their names are hidden and responses are grouped so no one can tell who said what. However, if a manager gives feedback, their name might be visible depending on how the session is set up. On the other hand, TeamRetro offers 3 options when it comes to anonymous feedback. One is fully named where all names are displayed. The next is alias, where pseudo-avatars are given to participants, and the last is fully anonymous. This makes TeamRetro a more flexible and trust-building option for teams that value open and honest reflection.
Is my data secured and protected with Echometer?
Echometer uses standard security practices including TLS encryption, ISO 27001-certified data centers, secure password hashing, and optional SSO on higher-tier plans. It is also GDPR compliant. However, Echometer is not SOC 2 Type 2 certified, which may be a consideration for organizations that require independently audited security controls. TeamRetro on the other hand, is built with enterprise-grade security from the ground up. It is SOC 2 Type 2 and GDPR compliant and can be hosted in either the US or the EU on AWS Servers.
What TeamRetro users say
The interface is clean and super intuitive and the flow was easy to navigate. I love the different options for retro types and the sticky note and dot voting experience was great. And finally, the ability to create actions was a fantastic finish. Your team should be SO PROUD.
In software development and consultancy, human factors can be the difference between ‘okay’ and ‘awesome.’ That’s why we hold weekly check-ins, and TeamRetro lets team members share their thoughts before meetings.
TeamRetro is a product where every detail is considered – simple usage, and good design. different flows for different needs, highly customizable, real-time features. It allows you to enter a retrospective or health check meeting comfortably and be ready for the meeting as a team leader.
It is intuitive, easy to use, and helps the team tremendously to perform a constructive retrospective. Also, the health check fully meets our requirements.
I love TeamRetro because it allows my team and me to focus on our topics without worrying about security or the tools we use, thanks to its amazing UI/UX. I started using it for retrospectives and health checks at my previous company, and now I also use it for planning poker.
TeamRetro’s Team Health Check feature allowed us to run quick surveys, providing a pulse on how our teams felt about aspects like communication and workload.
Probably one of the best applications we’ve used to conduct a retrospective. Seeing everyone interact with the board and share their opinions was awesome! The integrations with our Jira board is great. Allows us to track our goals and ensure they’re owned. Thank You, thumbs up from me👍
TeamRetro helped our teams effectively manage retrospective meetings, even in a remote setup, saving time and increasing productivity.
With the step-by-step framework TeamRetro provides, it enables small teams to hold regular retrospectives with alternating team members in the facilitating role.
Excellent, it’s exactly what we expected and even more, we liked very much the idea of incorporating in the report not only the current retro actions but also the pending ones from earlier retros.
