Miro is one of those software platforms in my daily toolkit!
What do you like best about the product?
I love the ability to create a range of different whiteboards, using pre-existing or customised templates. It really helps me out with most thing from creating slide decks, to feature kick-offs, to quarterly & sprint planning.
I would say I use Miro every day, and can be a great dumping ground to visualise a bunch of thoughts prior to refining them.

What do you dislike about the product?
I would love to see more image tools in Miro, for example ease of creating brand icons. It would also be great to have the ability to drop in PDFs or Videos.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Discovery of new initiatives, for example, running collaborative workshops, replaying discovery findings, design thinking etc.
My Miro review 2-25
What do you like best about the product?
Real time collaboration, various features and use case we can use it for, speed to access. Very easy to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
The lack of copy / paste from one board to another.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
There are multiple use case, mostly project management and delivery planning but also retrospective and mind mapping.
Enables interactive design collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
Having an overview available on most* devices and a collaborative environment where we can sketch and make comments has been imperative to our recent project which haa involved multiple offices where we used it daily. It is simple for anyone to use without much prior information. The ability to track comments and see completed comments helps us to understand our workload better, and having milestone boards for us to look back in is great for record keeping.
What do you dislike about the product?
The software can be heavy and laggy sometimem, and it does not run at all on some of our older devices due to RAM issues. Large drawing packages (even when scaled down as JPEGs) can make the board jerky when panning around and sometimes it crashes. The free version is very tricky to find your saved boards through the app, even if they are starred. It would be useful to export comments in to another format for offline use. With a large package of drawings updating the miro board to the latest set can be time-consuming.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro prevents confusion of using finding server locations for JPG and PDF files in to one Point of Access for our design documents across a big design team in multiple offices or remote locations. For presentations, It has replaced our roughing out/collage sessions we used to do in person before the Pandemic where we are all working remotely more often, which is a task it would be tricky to do in other software.
It's a great product, with lots of features.
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to use and share, great for remote whiteboarding.
As it has become more part of my work, I see more ways it could be improved.

What do you dislike about the product?
It's not the greatest at architecture diagrams. The layers functionality is a bit clunky.
Wish there was a video real-time chat feature. The search functionality could be better.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Quick whiteboarding and diagramming.
Miro has been an excellent platform for studying. I can paste images and more.
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to share my board and paste exercises has made it much easier for my classmates and I to collaborate on solving calculus problems.
What do you dislike about the product?
While its interface is intuitive, mastering all of Miro's features can take some time, especially if you're used to other tools.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro primarily addresses the challenges of remote and distributed collaboration. It provides a virtual space where teams can brainstorm, ideate, plan, and problem-solve together, regardless of their physical location.
Engaging
What do you like best about the product?
I love the collaborative nature of the work, intuitive design and sense of fun in using the tool. Not to mention it takes the pain out of writing up
What do you dislike about the product?
There are very few things. I still think it is very hard to turly replicate face-to-face ideation workshops. But Miro goes some way to doing that.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro is solving the challenge of running collobration sessions in an increasingly remote workforce and complex world.
completely changed collaboration in our company
What do you like best about the product?
Miro very quickly became sticky in our organization and now I can't imagine working without it. There is a very small learning curve due to the intutive nature of the UI (mostly) and a number of templates to help kickstart you. This has made it possible for members across multiple teams in the organization to collaborate and contribute in places where they may not have had that level of visibility previously. We use it on a daily basis for any collaborative design projects.
What do you dislike about the product?
Miro is not a replacement for documentation tools, no matter how hard we've tried. Boards can become sprawling quickly and difficult for users to digest. Some recent UI changes have made it difficult to find certain things.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asynchronous collaboration across teams and geographies. Workshopping and brainstorming activities. High-level design concepts not expected to be "pixel perfect".
The immersive experience of using Miro
What do you like best about the product?
Miro is an extremely easy-to-use feature for day-to-day activities where you can find various resources and templates that fit the activity you are doing. During the work period, the use of Miro is frequent, it is always open in a tab to which we return when we need some information about the project. There are several integrations with other systems that facilitate use during the process. In addition to an active community that helps with problem-solving and support with issues and questions. I recommend Miro for all these points and for the ease of implementing it into the process that is already built, assisting and organizing the project.
What do you dislike about the product?
One of the things I think is a disadvantage in Miro is not having integration with Figma and not having the option to paste an .svg code directly instead of having to upload a file.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro helps us keep the team cohesive and aligned with the information and the project status, in addition to all users adding comments about questions.
Awesome tool for collaboration, with a few downsides
What do you like best about the product?
Collaboration in the tool is awesome, so most of the steps in a sprint can be mapped using Miro.
You can create custom templates and shapes, so it can adapt to multiple needs in a single tool.
Creating boards is easy and fast.
Any need you have can be set up in a couple of minutes tops, not delaying your meeting.
The interface is easy to use, although the zoom in and out might not be the most intuitive functionality, but it should also be easy to understand after a few minutes.
All the company uses it and have no difficulties using it.

What do you dislike about the product?
Organization is a bit difficult, with a single board having multiple diagrams. So, often you don't find what you need/want.
And even though you have the "Quadros" (Pictures in english?) option to group objects and create an order for the presentation, most people don't use it or don't even know about it.
In the end, you end up with tons of boards with tons of diagrams that you need a standard in your company to keep organized and help you find the information you need.
Also, for some stuff, like a BPMN diagram, it's easier to just use a specialized to for that, instead of the Miro templates available. Since it a generic tool, it does not fit perfectly for every situation.
Lastly, if you are brainstorming ideas to create tasks for your sprint or anything like that, it would need to be manually transcribed to another tool like Jira.
Doesn't seem to have an integration plugin to any other tool to speed up things like that.

All purpose whiteboard for any kind of meeting or notes.
Anything you would write in a whiteboard can go into Miro, from brainstorming ideas, designing a solution or mapping our planning in the sprint.

Great tool for putting fresh ideas into motion
What do you like best about the product?
With Miro, our remote team can easily collaborate on new ideas, working simultaneously on a flowchart board to organize thoughts using intuitive features that require almost no prior knowledge, making it simple to implement for new users. It’s also an excellent tool for transforming product from Excel sheets into visual representations. This approach enhances the commercial exploration of our assets by sparking greater creativity within the team and providing a clear visual overview of our product lineup for the entire company and external clients. We use Miro daily, and it is fully integrated into our operations. Here in the commercial team, we can’t evaluate customer support because we don’t use it. Miro meets our needs effectively and is easy to use, so we haven’t needed additional assistance.
What do you dislike about the product?
Miro's table feature is challenging to use when multiple team members are working on the same project. It requires careful editing and can only be effectively managed by one collaborator at a time. Additionally, since we use Miro daily and work with many images, the platform can sometimes become slow to load, consuming significant bandwidth and RAM.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Since we sell movies and our product library is extensive, Miro helps us visualize our offerings and target the right consumers. With Miro, we can upload movie posters and organize them within a timeline for commercial exploration. Additionally, Miro is a powerful tool for mapping our internal processes and business operations, making it easy to present to other team members.
