An architecture designed for all stakeholders
With Boldo, teams can view the same assets and reuse their data across multiple visualisations. Readers explore shared content, while editors contribute according to their roles and access scopes.
Looking for a Miro alternative?
Miro combines collaborative boards, diagrams and structured data. Boldo adds a metamodel and a knowledge base dedicated to enterprise architecture.
From whiteboard to enterprise repository
Miro
Description
Miro is a collaborative workspace that combines boards, diagrams, documents, slides, Tables, timelines and Kanban. Its Business plan includes shapes for UML, BPMN, technical systems and the cloud. Tables offer custom fields, filters, sorts, formulas and dependencies between records.
Boldo is an enterprise architecture platform. Its metamodel defines asset types, their properties and the allowed relationships. Assets are reused across views, diagrams, charts, nested maps and dashboards.
Key Features
Collaborative boards and template library
UML, BPMN and technical systems diagrams
Tables with fields, filters, formulas and dependencies
Synchronised copies, REST API and integrations
Pros
Real-time collaboration on a canvas
Several thousand Miro and community templates
Tables, diagrams and two-way integrations
Cons
No documented dedicated EA metamodel
Data lives in Tables placed on boards, not in a central repository
No documented native EA impact analysis
Boldo · Aperçu produit
Reason #1
Move from static drawing to a living model
Miro offers synchronised copies to reuse a widget, a frame, a document or a diagram across several boards. Tables can also be copied as synchronised views.
Boldo starts from a knowledge base dedicated to architecture. An asset keeps its properties and relationships when it is reused across several visualisations. This structure covers the inventory beyond a widget synchronised between boards.
Reason #2
Structure information without the rigidity
Miro offers specialised shapes, including UML and BPMN, as well as Tables with custom fields, sorts, groups, filters and dependencies. Structured data can therefore be queried within a Table. However, the documentation does not describe an EA metamodel that governs object types and relationships across the organization.
Boldo lets administrators define asset types, their properties and relationship types. Contributors then feed a shared model whose rules are reused across the inventory and the visualisations.

Reason #3
Turn your diagrams into decision-making tools
Miro is no longer limited to presentation. Its Tables let you filter, sort, group and compute data. They also handle dependencies between records, and the REST API lets you read and edit the supported items on boards.
Boldo brings an enterprise architecture oriented model: assets, properties and relationships can be filtered in views and leveraged in charts, nested maps and dashboards. The difference is about the EA data model, not a general absence of analysis in Miro.

A flexible metamodel that adapts to your reality
Every organization is different. Boldo offers a flexible, evolving metamodel that adapts to your context, your constraints and your maturity level. You don't have to fit into a rigid framework: the model evolves with your organization, not the other way around.
Multiple visualisations from the same data
Boldo lets you present the same knowledge in several forms: views, diagrams, charts, nested maps and dashboards. Each format answers a different need, from detailed exploration to presenting indicators.
