My experience thus far has been very good, it is a great collaborative platform that is easy to use.
What do you like best about the product?
I love how it's a platform where group works can be done easily on, especially during these tough times due to the pandemic. The features that are on Miro are very helpful, such as being able to create maps and graphs that help with brainstorming, as well as the post it notes that can allow for quick ideas to be jotted down. I also personally like the feature that shows any changes that have been done on Miro when i log on again. This helps me keep track of who has done what. Additionally, Miro is a very broad platform which means not can I only use it for my studio classes but I can also use it for my management classes. Overall, I would very likely recommend it to anyone and everyone.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can sometimes take longer than usual to load the page.
One aspect that can be improved is being able to download a board as I like using my work throughout my presentations, and when I screenshot my work off Miro the quality gets distorted and is not as clear as i would like it to be.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As a design management student, doing online courses hasn't been the smoothest. Miro has been an extremely beneficial platform for my studio classes.
Miro has enabled me and many other students in my field to get more creative and involved in group projects. I have used it almost everyday since I started using it.

Self explanatory, easy to use collaboration tool
What do you like best about the product?
Miro's proven to be a flexible tool to be used for multi-purpose collaborations, concept meetings, private annotations, brainstorming workshops.
They keep introducing small incremental updates, thereby extending the feature set with useful improvements to their product, while keeping the user experience stable (so no annoying moments where you need to look for everything you thought you knew if you haven't used the tool for a while...). I really liked for example the 'meeting-style screensharing functionality to draw the focus to what's relevant and the option to hide and reveal content on the appropriate time.
The real time collaboration with no delay or sync issues is really a game changer, no need to wait for the input of your colleagues or clients to appear, as is often the case with other collaboration tools.

What do you dislike about the product?
I personally stick to the browser version so can't judge for real, but I do hear some colleagues struggling with the desktop version, it seems to be slower in starting up or accessing a certain canvas compared navigating to your canvas in the browser version.
A point for improvement (and I hope the Miro developers get to read this) is the switch between the navigation mode versus the edit or select mode. It's easy to overlook what mode your in and thus some user might accidentally drag or move components or entire frames out of the way, causing some disturbance in the collaboration session.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It allows us to quickly capture the essence of a discussion/idea/concept without much preparation. We're doing content workshops, retrospectives, partner evaluation, process reviews, all using the same simple toolset.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Just give it a try, you'll find out quick enough if it's what you need. no harm done in trying.
Miro is magic!
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of use and lack of complexity. They providing you with only the needed instruments. You don't think about the interface and just work!
What do you dislike about the product?
Miro on IPad version could be better. I often make unintended things with Apple Pencil. Company, Group, personal files could be structured better. I find it hard to locate some of my documents.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Transporting ideations into digital form. Miro is the fastest way to make a mockup of a user flow. Everything needs a draft version first
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Go for it if you need something for collaborative ideation.
Easy, breezy remote workshop
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to use - Available templates saves a lot of time in designing workshop activities. Very intuitive as well
Real-time collaboration - Multiple users can access and co-create at the same time
Great details for host control - 'Hide frames' function allows you to create workshop materials beforehand, but not disclosing too much ahead of time; ' Bring all to me function' allows you to gets everyone attention easily

What do you dislike about the product?
Doesn't work well on all PC - 2 out of 15 participants have difficulties accessing the board/ navigating functions
Some Ux functions - Unless EVERY element is locked. Things just dragged along with the mouse too easily. Have to spend time locking frames, shapes, picture, background...also duplication/ deletion of certain template elements when customizing, can be very tedious

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My work requires me to design and facilitate workshop with internal and external teams. Miro has been a great platform that helps me migrate to a 'virtual workspace' under COVID impact
It's the easiest and best online platform for team collaboration.
What do you like best about the product?
You can have brainstorming sessions with your team, or create to complete systems in the same board. It seems that's a never ending board, this lets you have an infinite amount of ideas or iteration in your projects without the necessity of creating a new board.
It also lets add several add-on's or plug in's with so it complements your work in other platforms like Notion, Slack, Google Sheets. An other great advantage for me as an UX Designer, is the easy way to create low fidelity wireframes with Wireframe library, they have everything I need so it's easier to maybe High fidelity wireframes in Figma.

What do you dislike about the product?
There's some limitations with the free account, like the timer, some templates and the numbers of members can work in the same board at the same time. At the same time is not as intuitive as I wish it was, I haven't been able to create my own personal board (in my account) and I can't figure out why, I've asked several Miro users and no one has been able to find a solution to my problem. An other thing I have had issues with, is the size of some of the images I want to upload to the boards I collaborate with, most of the time they are too big for Miro to handle.
It is very easy to modify others boards.
Also some new users find it a little bit hard to understand at the beginning and don't find the benefits at first instance.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Collaboration online is way easier, it really substitudes all the posts its used in real life. Also my team work is 100% remote, so it helps us create as a team in a very easy way. All the templates that are in the gallery are super useful, they are very clear and intuitive to fill. Also these templates cover a huge variety of subjects, from the design world with tools like customer journeys, blue print, customer persona, empathy map; business and strategy tools, like the stakeholders map, business model canvas, concept maps, flow charts, etc.
Miro has also had a big influence in the way I work, study and explain ideas to others. I really makes my life easier by having all the tools (and more) I could use in real life but completely online. At my college must of my teachers use it to program their courses, and also for collaboration with us during the course, making it really interactive and I think it makes it easier to learn.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Miro is a very powerful online too for self or collaboration use, I would really recommend you look deep into all the tools that Miro has available for you, it can really help your ideation process, visualize all the alternatives you have, also you can keep a complete documentation of work process of your projects.
Make sure you know all the tools Miro has, and keep up with the updates so you are updated to the newest versions and tools added to the catalog.
It can really be your daily basis work tool either if you are a designer, content creator, business woman, etc... there is no limitations

Miro enables our teams to continue productivity in Covid times
What do you like best about the product?
The easiness of creating quick collaboration areas for specific workshops.
What do you dislike about the product?
With low bandwidth some team members struggle to use Miro.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're doing all our Agile workshops on Miro. Benefit realized is effective team collaboration.
An essential tool for creative collaboration online
What do you like best about the product?
The highlights of Miro is the wealth of features within the board. There's so much you can do, and it's evident that they've been working with this for some time. It's a very mature product. The ability to trace your colleagues and screen share from within Miro is a great feature, reducing the need to use screen sharing within your conference call applications.
What do you dislike about the product?
There's very little to dislike. The one thing I can think of is that when a board get's very crowded, it can take some time to load. So you need good structure on your boards, and this will never be an issue.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's the perfect tool for remote workshops. But it's also a great tool for the things you don't obviously have any other tool for. A great place to ideate, do retros, collect material for research, or simple a place to quickly visualise an idea or thought.
It's like having a massive virtual team wall to collect and work your ideas
What do you like best about the product?
I like the infinite canvas and ability Miro provides to quickly collect ideas and thoughts from multiple contributors, working in real-time or asynchronously, and then ( key for me ) the ability to quickly copy and rework that information so you can keep the "raw" input but re-organise, classify, adapt and refine that first capture in multiple ways, somewhere else on the same canvas. I have to add that it is easy to pick up and quickly get people effectively.
What do you dislike about the product?
The voting is still not quite there in terms of ease of use but is easily fixable I think.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My use of Miro is largely about providing a way for people to workshop ideas and problems effectively in a fun way whilst working remotely.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Work on building a library of games, ice breaker exercises which users can do in advance of key workshops so that they can quickly start contributing.
Best tool for shared or individual work for college or the office. Makes life way easier.
What do you like best about the product?
It is very intuitive and thus easy to use. You can easily share your work with your coworkers and get the job done. You can make great graphics and schemes with it. You can organize anything for education, administration, management, etc.
There are a lot of templates to choose from which make it way easier for me to make my mind maps the way i like them most.
The ease with which you can turn your works into PDF's is also a great feature that has made my life way easier.

What do you dislike about the product?
I guess its a bummer that the free version only lets you have three documents at once. But its totally affordable and worth the money. I do dislike the fact that the people you want to share your works with must be signed up for Miro as well, sometimes i just work on something and other people don't have Miro accounts and they have to make one if they want to work on it too. There could be like a visitor mode in which you just work through the invitation link and that's it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I make a lot of schemes and graphics for my pre-writing stage and for studying. When i make a mind map with miro it makes everything super easy. I use these mind maps for studying and for writing purposes mostly. But i've found them extremely usefull for presentations too. You can make a presentation out of your mind maps from Miro.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
You will never stop using it.
Miro is the best place to portray your ideas and exploit your creativity
What do you like best about the product?
I love the templates, the design, the colors and how it helps improve ideas. I also like how diagrams can be easily made. I also really enjoy the post it options because it makes the canvas look colorful and by creating a color code, it can help distribute the sections all along the brainstorming. I really enjoy the fact that it is free and a ton of things can be achieved thanks to it. It is a very user friendly platform that has improved the creativity process of entrepreneurs.
What do you dislike about the product?
I didn't understand it when I first used it but I got it until a teacher taught me. I also do not like the fact that sometimes when I want to move an icon, the whole figures move. Another thing is that sometimes, text is too small by predeterminate, making sometimes a little difficult to read at first.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am solving a problem regarding anemia and malnutrition. It has helped me start an extraordinary brainstorming, starting from general sections within the problems and then crumbling it into smaller sections. Diagrams I have made in this platform have also improved interviews and surveys made to validate the solution, the prototype and the problem. It has improved the brainstorming process and teamwork organization. It has helped me define the problems I am trying to solve and create an accurate business model. Miro has improved my experience as an entrepreneur. Thanks to Miro, I have been able to work with my team, making our minds fly, exploiting our creativity and enhancing problem solving through a creative way, with the help of diagrams and templates.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would recommend you to use a template at first, because it can be a little confusing when starting. Use a lot of colors and make codes with them, for example, when brainstorming, all main problems can be of different colors and each subsection within the problems with alike colors to the main ones, maybe in lighter codes.
