What started as a covid savior for me is now an irreplaceable tool in collaborating
What do you like best about the product?
When I enrolled as a student in 2020 and covid started one of the major concerns were how to collaborate the most effectively from there. As we searched for solutions Miro become the key aspect for our lectures but also student group work in general, we integrated Miro easily, as the onboarding was really good. Even after covid, Miro allowed us to host home-office student group meetings and manage our time effectively, when in-person meetings weren't possible. I use it almost every day since multiple years.
What I like about Miro
- The ease of interaction, every user interaction on the board feels intuitive, I remember only very few times were interacting with Miro was frustrating for me.
- It's a pinboard but better. It doesn't reinvent the wheel of pinboards, but elevates it in the digital space
- Stickies make the board feel more "real"
- I really like the implenetation of things like "emotes"
As I applied for my student account, I got a accepted fast by the customer support.

Team naming
It's a daily frustrating act for me to guess which team belongs to whom. This is more of a student issue. A lot of my fellow students registered quickly with their college mail on Miro at the beginning of the semester DURING the first class of the semester on their phone. This is a moment were most students feel the onboarding must go quick as the class waits to interact. So what happened is that I am in 5 - 6 different Miro team from different students and a the teams are just named "Education team", so I now have to find amongst multiple similar names, which one is the right one. Another encounter was them naming their them just like the masters program I am in, so I also have some teams just named like the master, which doesn't help me identifying which team I have to go to.
In short: For team names on the left bar I would like to see the name of the "owner" - maybe in a smaller font below.
Managing text formation in Miro
I remember working with text formation in Miro is sometimes tricky. I know I can't expect Word-like formation, but I sometimes miss basics of formation, like just a bold bigger headlines, and other basic stuff from text-editors like Word. I would like if this was expanded on, as we often imported parts of scientifc papers we had to write, only to spend a lot of minutes, trying to format it, so you can read it the right way.
Other's don't see if I highlight a text passage with my mouse
Often me or other's quoted some text of a longer paragraph and while we read it, we highlighted to let other's know where we are. We do this, because we're used for other's to see highlighting, like in Microsoft Office / Google Collaboration. This would make studying even more efficient, so not everybody has to first find the line I am reading from, but I can just highlight it to them.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It makes it easy for us students to communicate, and host online-meetings and collaborate, as we often have really split time-frames of work. It also enables us to work indivudally from time to time. Additionally we keep our notes there and collect sources.

My go-to-tool for the salesfunnel and delivery of consultancy services
What do you like best about the product?
A great tool for interactive workshops in the AI & digital marketing field to map up the needs of my clients. I also appreciate Miro in my sales funnel to present things in a more engaging way than PowerPoint.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's easy to start working with, but when I'm using it in bigger digital workshops with arounds 50 people there can be a need to explain the logic to not so digital savy users,
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
To get things and insights from workshop in writing and give all users in those meetings an easy way to make notes.
Miro is an efficient collaboration tool for bringing ideas together
What do you like best about the product?
I like that Miro is easy to use - both designers and non-designers alike can easily use the tool. Minimal setup time is required. Miro also allows a user to effectly cross collaborate by using one common space. Miro is great for brainstorming and generating ideas - it allows for a fully remote team to work together with ease.
What do you dislike about the product?
When it comes to disadvantages of Miro I would remark on the fact that there's no way to save out custom templates if your team is interested in doing that. Miro serves as a sort of 'dumping ground' for ideas and isn't necessarily used to finalize a product or design. At times there is also issues with how often a document is saved - sometimes a session will expire and then you are left with unsaved work.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro is allowing our fully remote team to be able to brainstorm and work all under one platform.
My brief review on Miro based on my use case
What do you like best about the product?
Miro is fast and available on multiple platform making brainstorming with clients easy
What do you dislike about the product?
My basic gripe with miro especially when exporting a frame as an image to embed into a MsWord, there is an artificat of the border that is annoying and something that vproduct management can easily fix. Secondly, for someone that uses swimlane with multiple lanes, moving multiple objects in different lanes automatically group all the objects into one lane, not nice.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Helps to brainstorm with a collective group easily
First Workshop - Immediate Success
What do you like best about the product?
The workshop session I had prepared for the group was a true success - MIRO as tool to facilitat virtual and in-presence workshops allows a lot of exciting interaction. MIRO was intuitive to use and it was a lot of fun to use the numerous features. Throughout the week we used MIRO on daily workshop sessions. The integration in our overall project documentation was seamless, as well as it's implementation. Customer support is already great through the extended online documentation.
What do you dislike about the product?
I do not have anything to dislike and therefore cannot share anything in this section.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We develop strategic concepts, involving ideation, defining workshops.
Miro: powerful and flexible, with just a few missing pieces
What do you like best about the product?
Miro has quickly become my go-to tool for creating flows, diagrams, and charts, and it’s also become a staple in our sprint retrospectives. We almost use it daily. Compared to other tools I’ve tried, Miro just gives me the feeling that I have more control over every detail, making it easy to edit, adjust, and build exactly what I envision.
Adding images, removing backgrounds with AI, and embedding videos are all smooth and intuitive, which really streamlines the process. Text editing feels effortless, and the built-in tools provide plenty of creative freedom. Plus, with the marketplace adding even more options, Miro feels endlessly customizable to suit any project.

What do you dislike about the product?
Although I really enjoy using Miro, there are a few things that could be improved. For example, in our sprint retrospectives we often use templates to streamline the process. However, sometimes we encounter issues where certain notes become uneditable, which might be caused by an object and it's layer.
Another feature that would be super useful is a “table of contents” or a way to link specific sections on the board to a central navigation panel. When working on large boards, finding specific sections can be time-consuming, and having a quick-change option would make the experience much more efficient.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro is solving a couple of problems for us:
1. Miro makes it easy for us to create flows, diagrams, and charts with a flexible, intuitive tool.
2. Miro streamlines our sprint retrospectives with templates that standardize the process and save us time.

Amazing product but hard to get buy in for cost
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to collab with peers. Whiteboarding speed and ability to add all thoughts in one place. Templates are helpful to start with.
What do you dislike about the product?
Only 3 boards for free version. Hard to get company using it when the there is so little time to get usage out of the boards.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Working async, working on whiteboard allow me to not be constrained by Google Docs/Slides
Miro can not replace Visio... well, I got that wrong.
What do you like best about the product?
Ability to integrate many other links and documents into a singel space. Easily shared to allow input from others. It's like a big sandbox with all the tools needed.
What do you dislike about the product?
I had some personal difficulties when overlaying multiple backgrounds for logical grouping of devices. Sometimes when I would move one grouping over another - the front to back issues became unresolvable. I'm sure it has to do with me learning the correct process and methodology when creating objects and how to stack them on top of each other. I've spent 30 years using Viso and a week using Miro. It is a process.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I've never had a product that alllowed in parallel editing a reviewing. Miro does that. It has all the tools I've become used to with Visio with respect to IT Network Architecture. I was surprised to see the extensive library of icons for Cisco gear and other networking components. One issue in the enterprise world was that many people did not have Viso on their computer and I would have to export as a PDF. I do not have that issue with Miro.
Great beginner friendly tool for creative teams
What do you like best about the product?
The interface is very user friendly, it is an intuitive tool and it helps my team and I be creative at work everyday. Also, when in need for support it's really easy to get in contact with Miro and get a quick answer.
What do you dislike about the product?
When I import Power Point presentations, they don't look the same in Miro as they do in the original version. Also, some features that were working just fine fail suddenly with no easy fix.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My team uses Miro mostly for Stategic Planning with diverse teams of a Financial Group. We used to document everything in Excel so the look of it was not the best, also it became a very disorganized document. Miro fixed that by allowing us to design and build the formats that we need to write all the relevant ideas in specific spaces so it's an organized and nice view. Also, Miro has enhanced our collaborative work with a lot of members of the organization.
