My go-to tool for brainstorming and diverging into options and possibilities
What do you like best about the product?
Clear communication is fundamental for my work. I love sharing an in-person drawing board to brainstorm with my peers, and in times of remote working, Miro is my go-to tool to brainstorm and contribute with different people at the same time. It´s noticeable the amount of new functionalities being enabled by Miro over the last 6 months or so. It's noticeable Miro team is constantly experimenting with new functionalities and more than once reorganizing how information is shown to the customers. Sometimes that's confusing (where is this functionality now? Ahh, there's a new menu!) but that's the fair price of having a continuously evolving tool.
In a previous Forbes 500 company I worked in the past, Miro was not allowed. Once I left that company, I felt a relief to be able to work with Miro again. Feels like typing again using both hands.

What do you dislike about the product?
I love shortcuts. They save a lot of time. And miro shortcuts aren't yet top notch. A concrete example is the lack of shortcut to increase / decrease font size. The default shortcut across different apps (ctrl+shift dot / comma) is still unavailable.
Also, drawing complex objects with different lines is not something very intuitive.
Lastly, there's some elegance in Excalidraw to represent that a drawing is a brainstorming (with this appearance of a real pencil) that Miro lacks. These are minor details that I'm sure will be addressed in the near future.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Helping communicating in a remote-intensive environment
Great for note taking and research
What do you like best about the product?
The number of features means you can use it for just about anything - presentations, collaborative research and notes, diagramming, driving meetings. The infinite space in all directions allows you to work on it without the need to obsess over structure - you can just keep going and it'll probably be fine. Moving things around and resizing is quick and easy. Jira integration does just enough to be useful (although it's a little rigid). I use it in basically every project because it is always useful, and in many ad hoc tasks as well.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is quite rigid in terms of custom implementation. There isn't a custom shape tool, graphs and charts have very few options (and also don't accept decimal numbers for some reason), tables can only be massive unless you want to spend a long time messing with them. This is fine, you have to just get used to doing these things the default Miro way, but I do wish it could do things my way more often.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Collecting everything to do with a project into one space, and granting easy viewing access to stakeholders.
Endlessly mindmapping and collating research without limitation.
Leading meetings by following the flow of a Miro (for example, a retrospective with 50 attendees can be collaboratively performed on a Miro).

Roadmaps and Design for Smart Public Transport and IoT Solutions
What do you like best about the product?
Miro is very collaborative. We use Miro on a daily basisi in our DevOps teams to e g do Roadmaps and Agile Design for Smart Public Transport and IoT Solutions
What do you dislike about the product?
A simple line is "impossible" for me to move without bending the line...
The connection of shapes to columns and rows in tables are flawed.

Collaborative Whiteboarding for our geographically dispersed team
Great for wireframing, collaboration and brainstorming on almost everything!
What do you like best about the product?
I like MIro's inituitive yet super simplistic design. For a user, it seems on the surface that it has targetted feature but pretty soon we realise that its more than that. Its easy to get started with (installation), and easy to get a hang of. I love the repository they offer of templates, shapes, other items. Plus its FAST! That's definitely a big plus. I have never had my miro hang on any page/project. I use it almost every day.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only thing I would say I dislike is that it doesn't have a repository of line icon / svg icons. That would have been really handy as I have to create so many wireframes. So as of now I just go to google, copy the icon I want and simply paste it on my Miro board
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I don't have to go to multiple tools to perform the jobs that I own - such as mindmapping, wireframing, whiteboarding, collaborations, user journey mapping. I can do everything at one place!
Easy to use, functional, great collaboration options
What do you like best about the product?
I’m consistently impressed by its simplicity and ease of use. The intuitive interface makes it easy to dive right into projects without a steep learning curve. Miro’s wide range of templates is a huge plus, offering flexible options for brainstorming, planning, and team collaboration. The real-time collaboration features make it effortless to work with remote teams, and I love how everyone can contribute at the same time. Miro has become an essential tool for our team’s productivity and creative flow!
What do you dislike about the product?
not really anything to say much, love the tool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro helps us collaborate effectively with remote teams, makes it easy to get started with organizing complex projects or flows, and streamline brainstorming sessions. Its easy-to-use templates and real-time collaboration features boost productivity, making meetings and workshops more interactive and ensuring everyone stays aligned and engaged.
Good tool, but not sure how different it is from figma.
What do you like best about the product?
easy to quickly diagram things and share with collaborators
What do you dislike about the product?
i wish i had more control readily available to me with linking things together or finding new images.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
brainstorming mood board, prototyping things on a board
Essential to Creative and Innovative Work
What do you like best about the product?
It's where ideas start, where they're developed, and where they're refined. Not just used as a personal notebook but also a collaboration platform.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes can't handle heavy boards, also drawing functionality can be better. When I draw on my iPad the pen colour and size changes randomly and sometimes glitches.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Templates that help ideate and set a framework when I don't know where to start.
An invaluable tool for product managers
What do you like best about the product?
How easy and smooth the interactions with the tool suite are. It's easy to learn, easy to remember, and easy to keep coming back to. Especially as a product manager who often needs to tell stories I use Miro extensively over tools like Powerpoint to assemble a visual story and communicate proposals and complex concepts to stakeholders. What's more, the 2 way integration with JIRA is a life saver enabling me to run workshops around multiple team's roadmaps and make changes to our JIRA plans as we go. I log on to Miro at least once a week but often it's 3, to 4 times a week. I often have a few boards open in my browser.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish Miro had better support for icons. It's already got a rich icon library but I often dislike the icons I find there. I'd also love to have smaller visual templates. The template library is already amazing, but I'd love to have smaller sub components as templates so I can easily assemble a template of my own. I find I need to invent a new visual when I don't find a template that matches the story I need to tell or the activity I'm trying to perform.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It makes my life as a product manager a lot easier for the reasons I've outlined before: easy collaboration, ease of use, ease of telling visual stories and assembling such stories quickly.
Great tool for visual documents
What do you like best about the product?
Miro is great for creating visual representations of documents and information. It has a great amount of tools and plug ins that allow basically any type of graph, diagram or infographic you want
What do you dislike about the product?
It can be difficult to document more complex systems. I would LOVE to have pages inside the board and limiting the board once I'm done so it's not Infinite
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Visual documentation is easier to read and understand,it also allows to have less words, which solves the problem of no one reading documentation ever
A very good collaborative platform
What do you like best about the product?
Miro has an outstanding real-time collaboration platform. Its intuitive interactions and features make it easy for non-technical users to quickly get up to speed.
What do you dislike about the product?
However, as a Product Designer, I find that the integration between my Figma designs and other Miro activities—like flows, workshops, and brainstorming—could be more seamless. Improving this would greatly enhance my workflow and efficiency.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro allows us to work together seamlessly, no matter where we are. We can brainstorm, map out flows, and co-create designs without missing the in-person experience.
It provides a visual, interactive space where ideas can be shared clearly and iterated on quickly, which helps align teams and stakeholders more effectively.
