Design & Creative Tools:

The weakest area is the tracking and sharing layer, especially when guests, public links, and board content stay accessible too widely.

Miro is strongest where admins can control board sharing, enterprise settings, exports, and AI availability across the workspace.

Sketch is weakest on ads and tracking because cookie-based tracking remains part of the product or marketing site, ad personalization or marketing measurement still shows up, and behavioral signals can still travel through analytics or partner tools.
