I work as a consultant with Miro and am involved in consultancy, project management, and process management for some companies. I also collaborate with these companies if they require a collaborative tool for large-scale projects. For example, if there are some projects and a large group works together, we use Miro on such projects as the solution is excellent for managing large-scale projects. Given its efficiency in managing large projects, I did not hesitate to purchase the license, and currently, fifteen projects are running on Miro.

The UI is perfect for my needs. Even on mobile it's so easy to create mind mapping of any type
What do you dislike about the product?
I can't find any. I really love Miro and all its feature.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I can visualize and organize my ideas or progects. For me it's essential Miro and help me stay on track with my schedule.
Miro is by far the best tool to visualize, plan, organize, and collaborate
What do you like best about the product?
I love that they have so many templates to inspire you or to take advantage of for both professional and personal projects. Besides being able to use it as Kanban, for presentations, teamwork, and more. It is easy to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
What bothers me a little is having to make new payments for new equipment... It's strange.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have no idea.
An incredibly flexible application that enables easy collaboration for our software teams
What do you like best about the product?
My favourite feature is the mind map which we have been using recently for root cause analysis of any incidents that occur in our system. It's very easy to add new leaves or change the structure of the tree. We frequently use the Notion integration to embed Miro boards within our Notion docs.
What do you dislike about the product?
It needs to be easier to restrict who can make edits to boards or create new boards. Also comments sometimes get accidentally moved and the context is lost if it is no longer sitting right above an element.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Helps us visualise the design of our software system. We try and do as much design up front (before implementation) to avoid running in to roadblocks further down the track. Miro makes this very easy for us.
Great, flexible and user friendly tool
What do you like best about the product?
It's a great collaboration tool, the diagramming features are incredibly easy to use, particularly on meetings when you need to visualise a process, ideas, or even room layouts.
It has an excellent range of templates to choose from which is particularly helpful when you trying a task for the first time as it gives an excellent framework to order your thinking and guide you through the process.
I've used it for process mapping, idea/concept mapping, product roadmapping, sprint reviews and retrospectives and backlog management.
Whenever I'm not sure on how to get started on a task I search the templates and there is always something applicable to what I need to do.

What do you dislike about the product?
Sometime generating a sharing link that gives other users the necessary editing access to you board can be tricky, i.e. you think you've configured it as a sharing link that lets others edit but they can't get the needed access.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Visually accessible roadmapping, being able to easily generate roadmaps that help my audience hone in on areas that are relevant to them. Creating fun and engaging ways to run sprint retrospectives with my product squad which boosts team morale.
Real-time collaborative canvas
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of collaborating with teams remotely in real-time and its built in audio-video calling feature which is great to present ideas . Its seamless integration with other apps is a plus too.
What do you dislike about the product?
There's honestly nothing really I dislike, but I wish it had as much functionalality offline as well. And sometimes when I draw a line, it gets crooked on its own. Not sure if its a glitch.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro gives me the freedom to work remotely and still be able to collaborate on ideas, strategies, processes with the team and present them. The sticky notes are great to jot down any supporting points or comments. And since its an infinite whiteboard, it helps me create alternate flowcharts in the same sheet.
Brilliant tool for collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
I love that we can use it securely from cross team working, we can work seperately and then combine things. Easy to use in real time with stakeholders!
What do you dislike about the product?
I sometimes can't find things on very large boards, plus they can take a while to load, so some way to split a board into chunks might help

Helping us collaborate on research findings in real tme
Given its efficiency in managing large projects, I did not hesitate to purchase the license
What is our primary use case?
How has it helped my organization?
I haven't fully assessed the time reduction or cost-effectiveness yet since I've recently started using Miro to manage projects in this new way. Initially, I may save more time as I can visualize everything in one place and streamline project activities. I've also noticed that collaborating with others has become more efficient as we can quickly share visualizations and information. While I can't quantify the exact time saved yet, I believe there is a positive impact on efficiency.
What is most valuable?
As a consultant managing multiple projects, I find Miro's collaboration features highly beneficial. One standout feature is the ease of inviting guests to the board, making it straightforward for users to join and contribute. Miro's intuitive interface also speeds up collaboration, allowing everyone to effortlessly create process maps and diagrams. Additionally, the ability to see real-time updates on the board makes it feel like a virtual meeting, enhancing team communication. Regarding integrations, I've experimented with integrating Mirowith Jira and Microsoft Teams, although I found the Microsoft Teams integration less helpful and mainly used Jira integration for specific tasks.
What needs improvement?
I would like to see enhancements in Miro, especially when working with tables like Excel. Adding more copying, pasting, and formatting functions within tables would be helpful. Additionally, I wish for better picture editing capabilities, such as cropping and changing colours. So far, I haven't encountered any significant limitations while using Miro.
Miro can be slow with other online meeting tools like Zoom or Microsoft Teams.
Also, other platforms like Microsoft Teams might be more suitable for managing many files and ensuring team access. Miro could improve for complex tasks like dynamic object connections, but these are minor cons compared to its benefits.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Miro for two to three months.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
I haven't encountered significant stability issues, although sometimes it can be slower when using it alongside other online meeting tools like Zoom or Microsoft Teams.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
It is scalable as of now. Currently, it's just me using Miro, but I'll soon have one or two team members joining. I also have about twenty guests collaborating on the projects.
How was the initial setup?
Setting up Miro was intuitive and fast, primarily since I often work with software. It's one of the best solutions I've used. I'm using the cloud-based version of Miro, and it took me about two hours to deploy and start working with it. As for maintenance, I'm still exploring it, especially regarding project lifecycle management.
What was our ROI?
Regarding pros, Miro is highly intuitive and great for visual collaboration. It allows me to easily organize various types of content like tables, PDFs, and diagrams in one place.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The initial cost of Miro was a bit high for me as a small company. However, considering its many benefits and the number of projects I have, it's reasonable and worth the investment.
What other advice do I have?
I would advise other users to use Miro as it is a simple-to-use tool. Firstly, I use Miro and Microsoft Teams, but Miro is much more intuitive. You can place it visually on everything and in one place. You can put the table, the worksheets, the PDF, and diagrams to be visualized and laced; it is beneficial. On the other hand, when you have, for example, many files and need a large team to access them, it's better to keep it on some other platform like Teams. Navigation between documents is better in Teams than Miro when dealing with more complex projects.
Secondly, I think there is a need for a project manager to take out the benefits of the application. So, the platform is not for everybody; it is specifically designed for projects with a specific start and end time. And then, you have to place the results, the outcomes, and the documents and create them in the leading system. I feel Miro is not for keeping evidence or storing documentation. But if you can take the documents and outcomes and keep them saved in some other platform, then Miro is perfect for your organization or project. So I would recommend having a project manager in the company, who should be the main editor of the Miro.
I'd rate Miro a ten out of ten overall.
Incredible All-in-One Solution for Visualizations
What do you like best about the product?
The easy-to-use tools make this platform so easy to use and implement across our multiple departments.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish support was easier to access. A live chat feature would be perfect!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We needed an easy way to build workflows for our organization. We tried many tools and none of them were as easy to use with as many features as Miro.
