Easy, more intuitive way to get organized
What do you like best about the product?
The best part about Miro is the visual aspect and the ability to create and easily understand steps all laid out on one board. Miro works like my brain works, instead of forcing my brain to work in a way that is not natural or intuitive. The templates are also excellent! Miro provides creative templates that are super helpful that I wouldn't have come up with by myself but definitely make the work flow way better.
What do you dislike about the product?
You have to drink the kool aide. Team members who don't 'have time' or 'want to' learn a new software program cannot collaborate and add value. Although my work is much better, easier and more fun for me, I still have to make old school lists if I want to work with others who don't use Miro.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Staying more organized. Plus I can more easily see and anticipate obstacles before they happen with a Miro board.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Take the extra time you need in the beginning to learn the program. It'll save so much time later on!
Excellent tool for cross-functional collaboration!
What do you like best about the product?
I love that miro is the ultimate app for collaborating with multiple teams. The days of individually editing separate documents and sending them to colleagues are over. Everyone can work simultaneously and contribute to production in realtime.
What do you dislike about the product?
The inability to delete boards. For example, even the admins can't delete empty "My First" boards or boards that are no longer needed. They must be deleted by the person that created the board and if that person is no longer with the company nothing can be done about it. In the end, it creates a lot of unnecessary clutter.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our collaboration as a team, as well as our collaboration in multiple departments has increased exponentially and meetings have become more productive and inclusive.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you work within a team based environment, get Miro. Once you do, you might find yourself reminiscing about the before times and wonder how you made it this far without it.
We'll want to continue using Miro even when we're back in the office.
What do you like best about the product?
It's a fantastic way to create mood boards, have discussions, workshops, problem-solving, etc. Honestly, it's been such an amazing tool during the pandemic and working from home. So much that we've already discussed, we'll probably continue using Miro when we're back in the office (although that itself might be a little bit of a challenge since we're not sure if we'll just have to huddle around one person's monitor.) The best part of this is that you can create, edit, delete parts as you go without worrying about running out of post-it notes!
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't think there are any significant downsides to Miro. It's a very polished tool - we haven't run into any bugs nor downtimes. It's always been up and running. I've submitted a few minor improvements, such as the ability to assign more than 1 person to the 'task' card feature.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We've used Miro both as workshops to kick off projects but also as discussions for the overall team structure and working process. I think it has helped us improve ourselves in those areas. It's a lot easier to pick a project back up without having to look through scribbled notes.
Great tool for UxR analysis and collaborative work
What do you like best about the product?
The easiness of use, the customization of all the elements (colours, shapes, arrows, etc.), nice visual. The easiness of use, the customization of all the elements (colours, shapes etc.), nice visual .
What do you dislike about the product?
Tag feature is not very helpful as there is no way to sort or filter by tags and basically not very helpful just search by tags and not being able to play with them (would use google spreadsheet for tagging or coding info).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I conduct an analysis for a UX research project using Miro, it's very helpful as it looks clear and easy for stakeholders and it's convenient to map and play with data points we have from our studies. Besides, it's very helpful to work on analysis or workshop collaboratively with other team members.
Valuable tool for business and project management
What do you like best about the product?
Miro is a fascinating tool, allowing you to visualize projects, plans, processes and ideas in virtually every form you could imagine!
I use Miro to map out ideas and then follow through with project plans to ensure all aspects are covered in a collaborative yet clear way.
Upsides of using Miro are the ease of use, functionality and variety of mapping options.

What do you dislike about the product?
There are no areas i dislike; any issues have been primarily due to not being familiar with the software. Easily resolved though with increased use of the tools.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Brainstorming ideas and allowing all team members to actively collaborate, while working from home. Every member has a clear idea of the plan and what is required to proceed.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Miro is an asset to all project managers, consultants, team leaders and team members. Miro will improve the level of transparency, clarity and organization of your teams and projects.
Hands down my favourite tool for thinking and collaborating as a PM
What do you like best about the product?
An extremely intuitive tool that suits .
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing currently to note as it is good.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro is my daily thinking and collaboration tool. Being so intuitive, I can shape my ideas precisely as I want to in the smoothest way possible. Visually doing it just makes it so much clearer in my head and for everyone, I collaborate with. It's honestly better at visually representing my ideas than if I had a pen and paper. There is no friction in how I use Miro for my needs, and the general aesthetics of Miro is very pleasing as well.
In terms of collaboration, I am so impressed by how easy it is to have a large audience (say more than 10 users) work together on a Miro board, which makes workshops so much easier to host, in fact, probably better than had we done a workshop in-person.
I've used their integration as well, especially the Slack and Notion integration which are also regular tools I use
In addition, I regularly see feature updates by Miro quite often, another point that shows the team do not rest on their laurels and always try to make it better, even though I have absolutely no complaints about it.
Miro as a product and a company should definitely be a leader in the software industry because it is just that good. They truly cover the macro and micro details in how they build the product.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you need to think more clearly and work with others, regardless of your position, do consider using Miro above all other tools. It's better than actually drawing on paper to visualise ideas and it is better than using Word doc to gather requirements
Remote collaboration game changer
What do you like best about the product?
If you're used to Sketch or Figma this will feel very intuitive. It's amazing how easy it is to co-create and later clean up your content.
What do you dislike about the product?
When I first started, I was on a personal account and couldn't see all projects. I had to be added to a corporate account to see all projects created in the team. This was a bit confusing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro allows us to very quickly mock up and explore ideas just like we'd do in the office in front of a whiteboard. Remote collaboration becomes more manageable, and it's intuitive enough for anyone to join in.
Miro has saved our product team in the last year!
What do you like best about the product?
I was using Miro prior to this crazy pandemic but in the last year it has provided an incredible amount of value to our ways of working. How do we onboard new employees? How do you host engaging workshops without the tactile use of post-its and whiteboards(and biscuits!)? How do you keep a team aligned and maintain a single source of truth throughout projects? How do you socialise?! These are all problems that were effortlessly solved through Miros guidance and community, enabling the team and myself to create a shared spaces within seconds. Templates have been a lifesaver and provided a great starting point for almost anything you can think of and I no longer see Miro as a 'virtual whiteboard' but more of the ultimate collaboration tool. No more digitising what you once had to photograph and transcribe all over again. No more covering whiteboards with an exclaimed note to the cleaner: 'PLEASE DON'T RUB OUT!'. No more running out of space or picking up dried-out markers before the hunt begins to find anything other than a pink sharpie. Miro is quick, it's easy and it's here to stay.
What do you dislike about the product?
One thing I've really loved is the community on Miro. I would love to see more visibility of what others in the industry are doing. Talks. Videos. More content to drool over as soon as I open up Miro. How can I be even better at what I'm doing? What's hot right now? What methods are other companies doing to get the most from their employees and counterparts - this is where the value is for me.

Simply Useful
What do you like best about the product?
It's straightforward, yet there are many ways to work this. I use this for organizing ideas. It's effortless and allows you to go dive deep into your thought. You can also share your idea organization with others remotely. I'm glad I can put my idea out visually so that others can see my thought process.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's really hard to find a downside so far. As far as my current experience, I'm thinking the downloaded software was more slower or had connection issues, so maybe the web app version was better. I'm not sure if the downloaded version can work offline. If it can, it would be amazing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
So I am a Project Manager for AE Design Company. I've realized that our company could use a fast and collaborative idea-sharing platform to get the design concept. There are many regulations and criteria to be considered in each project. So what better way is there to share ideas and collaborate than Miro? Now I haven't implemented this to everyone but so far it's just me using it, but I'm about to share this with everyone pretty soon.
Versatile tool for many needs
What do you like best about the product?
Here is what we were running into, teams were in a silo. I am sure you have seen this in your org. We needed a basic tool to help our teams plan but also cross-collaborate. We have easily been able to implement Miro. Working with their teams was easy, and we are training our teams now. Easy to train and easy to learn. I enjoyed the provided training and some of the humor. It covered the basics and was just enough information that we weren't taking up too much time. Teams keep asking for live training from me, but the included training is highly recommended.
Easy to learn and lots of applications. I use this mainly for whiteboarding or training. We needed a tool that could help visualize our training and documentation needs. The ideation, voting, and collaboration functionality is fantastic. I enjoy the timer, voting, and sticky notes.

What do you dislike about the product?
At this point, there is no dislikes at this time. I am a non-admin, so I don't have access to see that side of the setup and admin.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Collaboration between teams. Miro has helped us improve our planning sessions and assigning tasks. We have also used Miro for our yearly and quarterly planning; this has been helpful to show our thoughts, plans, ad intentions to other teams.
