Big hit with my employers business
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of use and collaborative capabilities
What do you dislike about the product?
The PC desktop app can lag, time out and crash even on a genuine 60GB connection.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We needed a way of centralizing all our business processes and plans, on top of being able to share things with clients. COVID drove the business apart and made doing any of this extremely difficult. Still, with Miro, we weren't just blown away by the drawing capabilities of the solution but the overall package that enables us to collaborate on work no matter the time or location.
Now we can work with our clients 24/7 on work that otherwise would have been more awkward.

Most versatile tool for collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
Miro allows doing teamwork on all levels. We use it for mind mapping, as a platform within workshops (live), and as a tool to gather and show knowledge, etc.
What do you dislike about the product?
Fixing elements can be a bit tricky when working with multi layers.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We do collaborative mind mapping as well as project mapping. The benefits are that there is no "collision" even when many people work simultaneously on the same topic.

Try it out for free, then get your plan :-)
A wonderful & flexible whiteboard tool!
What do you like best about the product?
The upside of Miro is the flexibility to make each board precisely what you need. There are numerous templates to help you get started but the more you use, you will begin to want to craft your own. It's the tool I reach for in this remote working environment that helps with almost every conversation.
What do you dislike about the product?
While I didn't struggle to use it, I know some colleagues are less versed in using tools like these. It would be great to have a template board which is for totally new users (including those who may struggle to even do the basics)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Miro to host retrospectives, and team meetings, capture plans, and track actions. We also use it to play games and socialise.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This tool will become part of your daily workings after you see how flexible and useful it is to all kinds of use cases
Great virtual collaboration solution
What do you like best about the product?
Flexibility and ease of use within the boards.
What do you dislike about the product?
Managing board access & visibility can be confusing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With Miro, we can achieve easier global collaboration and more effectively brainstorm virtually. When everyone actively engages in miro sessions, it helps to align several stakeholders on priorities and processes. Meetings tend to be more engaging, and attendees feel more bought into the outcomes.
The full package
What do you like best about the product?
It's easy enough to use that first-time users can participate with minimal instruction. This is important to me as we use miro often for workshops with people who have never used the tool before. There's no feature that I wish was there, it has it all!
What do you dislike about the product?
I'm unsure how accessible it is, but I know it's hard to make these tools fully accessible. Otherwise, very little; I'm nitpicking here to be helpful. This challenge may be solved with an upgrade, I'm pretty sure (working on it!), but when inviting workshop attendees to the board, they have to join your team. Then, if you forget to remove them after (which I always do!), they can create new boards and do all sorts of things. There are no administrator privileges to delete their boards, so you have to contact the rogue participant and walk them through how to delete boards and create their own team. It would be nice if there were a way to prompt everyone to remember these things.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Working from home has made collaboration challenging for me as a public servant. The public service is also more behind when it comes to adopting tools like this. So Miro helps to facilitate research and collaboration in a way that most folks can participate with ease. The benefit has been that with the exposure, more teams are not only using more digital tools, but they are also collaborating more and better!
Miro is one of the most intuitive and creative apps I've ever used.
What do you like best about the product?
It's so easy to use, I started using Miro a few months ago and because it's so intuitive I already feel like a pro. I have encouraged a few of my colleagues to move on from pencil and paper to using Miro too.
What do you dislike about the product?
The paid account system is slightly complicated. We need some people in the organization to have full editing access and some people to be able to view the boards for presentation/review purposes but it's not clear how this is possible.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Miro for creating flow diagrams and user journeys and it's amazing for this. We have multiple users collaborating on these processes and it makes life so much easier
Recommendations to others considering the product:
you can use Miro for free to start with. I'm sure you'll be hooked and the paid features make it so much more effective. Definitely worth trying it out
The interface is great to have everything in one place and run sessions that can show journey.
What do you like best about the product?
The open interface where we can create our own flow and that guests have limited access, if I want. I can control the interaction completely.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not too many templates yet to select from. The ones available are too structured. Would love to see some more "Play" or "Fun" features that we can integrate into the platform (maze, puzzle etc)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We got a team of 100 people to share their thoughts in the same place. It was a great way for them to own their work and collaborate with each other in real time.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is not connected to Teams, that makes it even more integrated.
Miro is a powerful tool for instructional designers
What do you like best about the product?
Miro has great flexibility. It can be an empty canvas, or you can select from a deep bank of templates to speed up your work. I am also thrilled that there is now a Teams integration and soon will be a Zoom integration.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are a few formatting limitations that can make it a little challenging to style things, but it's really just a minor inconvenience.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I've used Miro to show a client what they could do to make their training more collaborative, helped another client do a series of process mapping workshops virtually, and often design learning activities that have a Miro component. Miro makes it possible to have meaningful virtual training sessions and productive workshops/working sessions in a distributed way.
Incredible tool for whiteboarding and brainstorming.
What do you like best about the product?
A very powerful tool that has a range of functionalities. The weird thing is that even with such a plethora of features, it is easy to use. I'd recommend it both to remote and in-office teams.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is no major disadvantage - it does its job really well.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
- Brainstorming/ideating
- Technical diagrams
- UX Architecture/flows/logic
- Basic Project management (for very early-stage startups)

Miro for all people and needs
What do you like best about the product?
Its flexibility, its essentially a whiteboard which I can do anything there. . I use Miro for a lot of things: creating a note, creating a plan for work or studies, wireframing, etc
What do you dislike about the product?
Its gets heavy the more note you have. Which is normal, but I think miro should tell us if it's already too heavy or give us a tips to break down our board or don't upload to much picture, etc
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
-Making notes, I like to screenshot a PowerPoint for example, and put my sticky notes around it
-Designing idea flow, I make a point and point after that like an idea tree
-Wireframing, I like to make a wireframe a low fi design
