Effortless Collaboration with Pre-Built Templates and Easy Navigation
What do you like best about the product?
I like the pre-build templates, the easy navigation, easy sharing with the team.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there was more "prototype" features, like Whimsical. Not to build a robust prototype, but to wireframe designs, product solutions etc. I ended up always using whimsical for that.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
- Help my team visualize the product roadmap, instead of showcasing it in Jira.
- Help me break down processes and build mild-maps and flow to help get to a feasible solution
- Integration with Jira made my life so much easier to build roadmaps,

Effortless Collaboration and User Adoption
What do you like best about the product?
I find it extremely easy to use and collaborate with. It's easy to get other people to adopt using it as well.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not that I can think of. I would say I use Miro weekly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The main problem was getting everyone to understand the user journey and the experience we were trying to achieve via workflows. I was able to put in our design into Miro, and review with our dev team what ticket were needed to make it real. At that point, I was then able to get with QA and go over the product and ensure they understood what the outcome needed to be when they were testing. They used Miro a lot for reference and ensuring our product did what it was supposed to do.
Ideal for System Design and Team Collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
I find Miro incredibly useful for mapping out the high-level system design of applications, which is vital for my work in software development. I really enjoy the collaboration feature that Miro offers, allowing my team and me to work together efficiently on software projects. The organization aspect of the boards is also fantastic, as it provides a structured space to capture and organize my ideas effectively. Additionally, I appreciate how well the diagramming tools work, particularly in illustrating the relationships between different system components. I like the ability to place code blocks within the Miro board, as this adds another layer of functionality that's very useful. Finally, I found the initial setup of Miro to be very easy, which made starting with the platform a breeze.
What do you dislike about the product?
I like the ability to place code blocks in the Miro board but find it lacking because the code cannot be executed or checked by an IDE or Linters.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Miro to map high-level system designs and collaborate with my team efficiently, organizing my ideas. It excels in diagramming system components.
Effortless Sharing and User-Friendly Visual Creation
What do you like best about the product?
It is easily shareable with colleagues and clients. It is simple and very user-friendly to create visuals and diagrams.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there were more color options for the sticky notes.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro is solving the problems of creating a diagrammatic visual for a client and also allowing them to edit the diagram we are co-creating.
Intuitive and Flexible Collaboration Platform
What do you like best about the product?
I love Miro for its intuitive and flexible nature, which makes it incredibly easy to work on various requirements. The platform is designed with minimal learning curve, allowing new users to adapt quickly via its drag-and-drop functionality and easy-to-use templates. I appreciate how Miro supports a wide range of use cases, from table-like structures to detailed swimlanes, without being rigid. Its ease of use is particularly beneficial for collaborative brainstorming and planning, especially with distributed teams, as it facilitates creating clear flows, diagrams, and roadmaps effectively. The initial setup was also very straightforward, adding to its every-day usability.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike the restrictions on the number of boards even in my private account. When onboarding to an enterprise account, managing between the spaces there and my own is really tricky. Ideally, if I have an enterprise license, I should be allowed to create my own space for my private in-progress boards. The current limitations discourage me from putting my work-in-progress in the shared space.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Miro to overcome challenges with distributed teams, creating easy-to-understand flows and roadmaps. Its intuitive drag-and-drop interface and flexibility reduce the learning curve and adapt to various use cases.
Effortless Collaboration and Unmatched Efficiency
What do you like best about the product?
I love how Miro allows seamless simultaneous collaboration with no lag or delay, enabling us to work at maximum efficiency. Tools such as post-it notes and organizational layouts are incredibly valuable for keeping track of time management, attached files, and relevant tasks. These features made our work process smooth by allowing each team member to identify their contributions easily. The ability to share work, leave notes, and track progress in a common space across diverse disciplines was a significant benefit. Miro effectively replaced chaotic communication through endless emails and texts, centralizing everything in one place, which was essential for managing such a large college project. The transition to Miro from other tools like Canva was straightforward. The setup was super easy; a lecturer introduced Miro to our team, and we were fully functional within an hour. This ease of use substantially enhanced our overall experience, ensuring that we could focus on our projects without getting bogged down in technical difficulties.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think Miro could definitely improve by adding more organizational layouts and folders for the boards.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro centralizes our team’s work, allowing interdisciplinary collaboration, easy note-taking, and efficient information sharing, improving our workflow without communication delays.
Love it! Please add interactions and more flexible text formatting within shapes.
What do you like best about the product?
It is user-friendly, and I enjoy the post-it notes and visualization features. I also enjoy the ability to have frames and create presentations, and to have viewers "follow" others as they move through the board.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would appreciate if dynamic interactions could be added to shapes, so that when someone clicks on something, another shape/page/feature would appear with more information. (This is a feature with Lucidchart, though is a bit cumbersome to use, so having a simpler process than theirs to create interactions would be awesome.) I also wish that the text within shapes allowed for different formatting types; for instance, it'd be nice to be able to center a title and then have text underneath that's aligned or listed as bullet points. At the moment I have to use the same alignment throughout the text in the shape, and I make dashes to denote lists.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It provides organization to help structure our thinking. It also serves as a fantastic collaborative brainstorming tool.
Excellent Collaboration and Versatile File Support
What do you like best about the product?
This tool supports collaboration, works with a wide range of file types, and makes it easy to present boards.
What do you dislike about the product?
Exporting images for use in PowerPoint is difficult.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This is a shared space where many remote workers can contribute their ideas.
Effortless Wireframe Creation
What do you like best about the product?
Creating wireframes is straightforward, which makes it easier for me to communicate my ideas to colleagues.
What do you dislike about the product?
There aren't many drawbacks to mention. If I had to point out something, it would be that occasionally the updates are not very intuitive, and it isn't always clear what all the available features are.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This tool allows me to create wireframes quickly, which means I spend less time arranging shapes and designs and more time focusing on communicating my ideas.
Essential for Creative Collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
I like having a huge digital and intelligent canvas, where I can organize areas as I see fit and where it is very quick and easy to 'place' things. For a creative startup like ours, being able to organize thematic macro areas of the canvas is essential. I find it incredible that Miro is super fast and that I can zoom out and zoom in almost instantly and without loading times. Moreover, starting to use Miro was very easy and intuitive, because the buttons are positioned where you would expect.
What do you dislike about the product?
One thing I find frustrating is that when I copy and paste an Instagram link into Miro, I can't see the preview. This feature is available for YouTube and Google Drive, so it's disappointing that it's not available for Instagram. Additionally, I wish to have more customization options for vector shapes, which would be very useful for creating flowcharts or mockups.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Miro to simplify the sharing of ideas, produce work for clients, and graphically organize our complex fantasy universe, improving team collaboration and integration with external collaborators through a fast and intuitive digital platform.
