It's flexible
What do you like best about the product?
Freedom that does not interfere with the process of thinking.
Functional upgrading speed is fine.
Functional upgrading speed is fine.
What do you dislike about the product?
The worst thing is that you can only have two levels of board and you can't categorize the board in your project. At least 3 levels are required.I've already told Miro about this, but it hasn't improved.
As the number of items increases, the operation of the PC becomes heavier.
I'm always confused by the optimal board magnification settings.
I don't know how much magnification I should start drawing to make it easier to handle even if the picture gets bigger.
Text fields can behave strangely when filled with a lot of text.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
・ For personal work to analyze my problems
・ For remote work when analyzing research results with team members
・ Present the STORY to tell
Story presentation needs frequent zoom-in and out during the speech. I usually utilize 'prezi' as my presentation tool; however, it is only for presentation. I can use Miro as an analyzing tool, too.

Miro has been a life saver
What do you like best about the product?
As a facilitator, I'm used to creating shared visuals for my work. Switching to virtual events made that challenging, but Miro made that possible. I especially appreciate how easy & fast it is to create connectors. That is EVERYTHING.
What do you dislike about the product?
I really don't have any complaints about the program. I like everything I've tried so far. I haven't tried a lot of the collaborative tools, but will be soon.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's allowed me to do online facilitation during COVID and I love that when my session is over, my notes are done! I used to have to synthesize all my boards afterwards and it took HOURS. That saves me a ton of time which makes my projects more profitable.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Definitely jump in. There's a bit of a learning curve but not much. I use the keystrokes as well as the mouse and I've become incredibly fast at it while facilitating live.
Miro - A Virtual whiteboard that works
What do you like best about the product?
I love the flexibility of Miro, Whether it's mapping out potential social media campaigns, collating hardware options, design feedback or just doing busines model canvas designs and software requirements Miro has the flexibility and intuitiveness that means people get it very quickly. That short learning curve but the limitless possibilities is a key benefit.
What do you dislike about the product?
Load times on very large boards can sometimes be a bit of a drag but thats really down to how much information you've put on it. A smarter loading scheduler would make this rather small annoyance disapear.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have used Miro for Software design, data wrangling, hardware options, hardware desiugn feedback, business model canvas design and iteration. The biggest benefits we have gathered is being able to gather sometimes sprawling information and easily reorganise it collaboratively. This ensures everyone is on the same page both literally and metaphorically.
The definite go to place for online collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
It is simply awesome for online planning sessions, workshops, training, and even fun activities.
It is easy to set up the canvas in many different styles and layouts that fits the event best. If you spend enough time with the preparation for a workshop you audience will be amazed.
With the introduction of Miroverse you can also access many professionall designed templates for many different kinf of activities for free. It can save tons of hours during the preparation period.

What do you dislike about the product?
Without a mouse it can be confusing first.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I love visual collaboration, and Miro has all the tools I need for that. Espceially with this Covid, constant homeoffice situation having such a stable, feature rich tools is a must.
I frequently use Miro for workshops with many people involved, and it is so easy to have everybody engaged.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Spend enough time to learn the features to be able to use them smoothly. Once you have learned it, it will be an incredible experience.
Also in case you invite first-time users to your canvas for a collaborative session, help them and give them time to learn the basics first, do not rush to start the session. Not helping attendees to learn Miro can be a dealbreaker for the event.
Also take some time to check out some templates on Miroverse. Even if you do not use any of the available templates, you can get a lot of inspiration for your own work.

A beautiful and intuitive way to co-create with co-workers
What do you like best about the product?
Miro is a straightforward and intuitive tool to use. I use it almost every day, and it's such a beautiful tool to build workflows and wireframes, have co-create sessions/workshops, gather visual references, and develop roadmaps. I love the pre-filled templates, especially the "Customer Journey Map (Timeline)", "Mindmap", "Kanban Framework" and "Product Roadmap" ones. They save you a lot of time - especially if you're not artistically gifted.
My designer teammates also love to use Miro! I love populating the abord along with my Product Designer. It replicates the feeling of writing on a whiteboard with other people (which has not happened since the beginning of the pandemic). It's an excellent tool for teams that work remotely or asynchronously.

What do you dislike about the product?
Miro can get very slow and "stucky" when you fill the board with lots of photos and heavy components. It can be tricky to share the screen in workshops and video conferences, for example.
Another downside is the cost. Miro can be very expensive if you intend to use it with your whole team. I work as a Product Manager, and only the design team (around ten people) and I have access to Miro. Even so, it's quite pricey - especially since I'm from Brazil and our local currency is significantly devalued against the dollar.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As a Product Manager, I usually start my projects on a Miro board and keep adding information until it's ready to launch. It helps me to gather all the project's relevant information (doubts, hypotheses, solutions) in a single place.
I also use Confluence for documentation and Figma com wireframing.

Great flexibility and esthetics with minor performance issues
What do you like best about the product?
Strong points are an intuitive user interface, clean and pleasant visuals, and a wide variety of templates to choose from. The timer is a welcome addition, as it helps to coordinate small group work unobtrusively. Frames allow for quick and easy management when exporting to pdf. My overall impression is very positive: things that previously required switching between dedicated tools can now be integrated into one environment.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of my workshop participant complain about the board getting cloggy at times - as far as I can tell, this is more likely in case of larger boards and weaker internet connections.
There are also some minor interface issues: there is always someone who finds it hard to edit pre-prepared post-its (maybe switching from 'double click to edit' to 'click to edit' would help?), voting could be simpler and more intuitive. The drawing tool is adequate, but fairly barren compared to the variety offered for some apps.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro provides an effective environment for facilitating online workshops and creative problem-solving sessions. Its main benefit for me is the ability to send people off to explore issues, brainstorm solutions etc. in smaller groups, and then seamlessly move into clustering the results of the group work. This cuts the longish and often tiring group-by- group presentation and the need to integrate various documents they've been working on.
My favourite design tool. Ever.
What do you like best about the product?
MIRO is a fast, capable and easy to use.
I started using MIRO to work with a colleague on our desing projects when the pandemic started and will neve rgo back to someof my old tools. I design hardware and software usign a LOT of differnt tools but MIRO is the dynamic tool I need to collaborate and share DESIGN THINKING. It combines dynamic, collaboartive whiteboarding (and video, voice, and chat!) and comes with built in tempaltes that support a lot of fundamnetal Desing Thikign, Strategyzer, and UX technoques. It's great for presenting too. The paltform is desinged to scale for teams and has great user and account managment tools. Guests can be invited to any baord for comment dn even to edit on the Consultant plan.
You can do just about anything in MIRO. And there are lots of post-it notes.

What do you dislike about the product?
Support is generally pretty good.
Some of my boards do not save to PDF correctly due to size.
I'd love to see some more robust hyperlinking between boards and the introduction of reusable components to speed wireframing.

Primairly we use MIRO to capture and communicate our THINKING.
Using boards for this has mad eit easy to work remotely with others and to get team input on projects.

The tool for almost everything
What do you like best about the product?
I like that it is a tool that is constantly evolving around the users' needs. Ready-to-use templates are a great starting point in every beginning. I also like that it foresees my needs; I often found uses or templates of things I didn't imagine and is excellent to have that! I find myself using Miro more and more oftently. I also love the fact that it doesnt have the barrier of needing a login for every user, makes it easier to share in a big scale.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not everyone is familiar with this tool, it is a barrier for some no-tech people, but I think it is growing in many different aspects. I often find myself adding some exercises so nonfamiliar users can feel more comfortable before beginning a session, which consumes the sessions' time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is easy to build for many different possibilities/sessions. It saves me time organizing my work in different touchpoints. I am using it from the beginning of a project which helps me to plan. I use it during a project, which allows me to execute within the tool, by myself, or in collaboration with peers. And also, it helps me at the end of a project to present results and share with others the work done. It is more comfortable having all the processes in only one tool instead of having many documents and links to different repositories and platforms.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Search all the possibilities. There is help and ideas, and templates for almost everything.
Best collaboration tool - Hands down
What do you like best about the product?
Pre-built templates - They had great templates to begin with. Once they opened up the templates for others to add their frameworks, the value became infinite.
Real-time, no lag - I've had over 20 people in a workshop with lots of elements on the board. Didn't experience any lag issues.
Infinite board - Other canvas-type tools force you to define the boards of your board, so you constantly have to make your canvas bigger, which interrupts your flow.
Licensing - Pay for licenses only for users who create boards. You can share and collaborate with people who just need to add to the one workshop you're inviting them to.

What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the templates have little quirks to them, like the storymapping tool. I wish the header would stick so as you move down the map you can still see your header. But these issues are SO minor, the value out weighs the quirks.
I also wish they had better iPad Pro drawing support. It's a bit clunky.
Tables are not that easy to use either but it's a relatively new feature.
I wish it would open my desktop app when I click a Miro link instead of opening in my browser

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Whiteboarding. Now that we're all remote, it's hard to run collaboration workshops. It's still much more fun and insightful using physical stickies because you can zoom out and see it all but this is as good as it gets for digital.
We've been able to run big ideation sessions with people across the org.
