Great Collaboration and Visuals, But Scrolling Needs Improvement
What do you like best about the product?
Visually being able to see the information shared. Also, the ability to colaborate with multiple users.
What do you dislike about the product?
Scrolling can be frustrating. If you don't remember to lock screens, the visual can be changed when you don't want it to.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Having large space to work with.
Effortless Design on Desktop, Mobile Layer Issues Need Improvement
What do you like best about the product?
It's very easy to drag and drop images into the program and it's also very easy to move around any elements after putting them down.
What do you dislike about the product?
On mobile its very easy to accidentally select the locked background layers and then I have to zoom all the way out to deselect the layer and continue working which impedes my workflow.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am an artist and often need to compile large amounts of images for reference and visual development. Miro makes that easy.
The best tool for clarifying processes
What do you like best about the product?
Miro helps me getting a clear overview of our problems, proposed ideas and processes. I like working with Miro because it provides easy and understandable features that can increase the value of a business. It is the best tool to clarify processes and it is easily adjustable.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes, Miro does others things than I want to do. For instance, sometimes when I am making a flowchart and I want to add a box on the right side of the chart, it creates a box on a different side or it provides the wrong type of action box.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro helps me understand the bottlenecks of processes and helps me creating new processes that are optimized and improved versions of the process. I also use it for writing down customer journeys to get a clear overview of what the customer experiences.
Versatile Mapping Tool with Intuitive Interface
What do you like best about the product?
The flexibility to deliver different information mapping outcomes, from diagrams to tables to flowcharts - all in one place with an intuitive interface.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes freeform lines can be fiddley to get perfect but very little to dislike otherwise.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro helps me visualise users flows and funnels then draw up actions against those, improving growth performance.
Practical and reliable, although the U/X and image bank can improve
What do you like best about the product?
It is a practical and reliable software that really helps you organize your work. I have used this tool in at least four different companies, and whenever I arrive at a new place, I immediately recommend that all teams centralize their boards to define the operation.
What do you dislike about the product?
It could improve in areas focused on U/X and U/I that do not have an additional cost, and it could also improve the image bank as it is very poor.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In my work teams, generate order, having the boards visible and synchronized allows everyone to move towards the same path and meet the objectives, it also prevents having scattered documents and centralizes ideation or brainstorming.
Fantastic for Collaborative Workshops
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to build complex and creative online worksheets and exercises that people can work on collaboratively online at the same time. It is like having a google document and an A2 sheet of paper with a full set of coloured pens at an in-person workshop. There are many features and functions which can be utilised to improve your Miro Boards. I have found them perfect for running online workshops with international researchers and experts. All of the exercises, as well as their progress and notes, are all in the same place. There are many templates you have access to which can help design your board and can come with pre-built functions. I have generally found it easy to use from a design perspective and for my participants. I am running a similar project to last year again so I am able to take my boards from last year and tweak/improve them easily.
What do you dislike about the product?
Designing boards and exercises from scratch can be tricky and clunky. I took a lot of time to build a complex futures wheel which took a few attempts as there were no templates of the design I required. Also, sometimes the participants can struggle to find where they are meant to be on the board, however, I feel that is at least partially down to them not paying attention.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Running online workshop exercises
Good tools for migration
What do you like best about the product?
We just switched from Mural to Miro and the tools to take our Mural boards and convert them to Miro were super easy and really pretty good. Almost no problems whatsoever, only some light editing - but they were usable almost immediately.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are some tools that Mural had, where Miro seems to be a little immature. For example - icons and shapes/tools. Maybe it's just a matter of being different and for me new - but I am finding it less than straightforward on adding, for example, colorful icons representing the holidays to my PI Planning boards.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We need an electronic whiteboard space with a rich toolset for collaboration. Miro fits the bill quite nicely, allowing us to do more than MS Whiteboards. For example - we need a kind of collaborative workspace for our PI Planning events, and Miro makes this super simple.
The Ultimate Canvas for Thought Organization
What do you like best about the product?
I love Miro's functionality for capturing and reorganizing information, as it allows me to easily manipulate ideas and thoughts, which is crucial for lesson planning and managing my tennis team and youth group. The large unlimited canvas for collaboration is a standout feature because it overcomes the portability issue that comes with traditional whiteboards. The setup process is straightforward, allowing me to jump right in with features like adding stickies on a board to quickly brainstorm and visualize ideas. The visual system of Miro is incredibly effective for organizing thoughts, which I find especially useful for capturing nodes of information and presenting them engagingly to teens. Moreover, compared to traditional docs or slides that constrain my ability to reorganize information, Miro is particularly designed to support flexibility, which I appreciate greatly. The platform's capability for collaboration, although not yet utilized in my case, is another reason I am drawn to it, and overall, the visual nature and synthesis capacity of Miro ensures that it adds substantial value to my workflow.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'd like the ability to make stickies any size and not stuck to a set ratio. I'd also like the ability to format text in the text box type of sticky. In other words, I'd like to blend the capability of stickies and text formatting within them with the ability to make any size of a stickie/text box. Formatable text within a stickie/text box of any size.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Miro to easily manipulate and reorganize ideas, see relationships between them, and overcome the lack of portability with traditional whiteboards.
Idea organizer
What do you like best about the product?
Being able to just drop a bunch of ideas and organize them later, and being able to collaborate
What do you dislike about the product?
there is a feature on another white board software that when you double click it creates a sticky note, when you need to take a quick note its helpful
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
easy to collect a bunch of products/ and link the correlating website
Miro for Collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
Live collaboration, being able to place things on the board and draw on it together live. Really helpful for making design decisions and seeing progress.
What do you dislike about the product?
Unable to use a grid system for presentations, not as much control over size and layout as something like indesign.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Across-office design collaboration.
