A beautiful and intuitive way to co-create with co-workers
What do you like best about the product?
Miro is a straightforward and intuitive tool to use. I use it almost every day, and it's such a beautiful tool to build workflows and wireframes, have co-create sessions/workshops, gather visual references, and develop roadmaps. I love the pre-filled templates, especially the "Customer Journey Map (Timeline)", "Mindmap", "Kanban Framework" and "Product Roadmap" ones. They save you a lot of time - especially if you're not artistically gifted.
My designer teammates also love to use Miro! I love populating the abord along with my Product Designer. It replicates the feeling of writing on a whiteboard with other people (which has not happened since the beginning of the pandemic). It's an excellent tool for teams that work remotely or asynchronously.

What do you dislike about the product?
Miro can get very slow and "stucky" when you fill the board with lots of photos and heavy components. It can be tricky to share the screen in workshops and video conferences, for example.
Another downside is the cost. Miro can be very expensive if you intend to use it with your whole team. I work as a Product Manager, and only the design team (around ten people) and I have access to Miro. Even so, it's quite pricey - especially since I'm from Brazil and our local currency is significantly devalued against the dollar.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As a Product Manager, I usually start my projects on a Miro board and keep adding information until it's ready to launch. It helps me to gather all the project's relevant information (doubts, hypotheses, solutions) in a single place.
I also use Confluence for documentation and Figma com wireframing.

My favourite design tool. Ever.
What do you like best about the product?
MIRO is a fast, capable and easy to use.
I started using MIRO to work with a colleague on our desing projects when the pandemic started and will neve rgo back to someof my old tools. I design hardware and software usign a LOT of differnt tools but MIRO is the dynamic tool I need to collaborate and share DESIGN THINKING. It combines dynamic, collaboartive whiteboarding (and video, voice, and chat!) and comes with built in tempaltes that support a lot of fundamnetal Desing Thikign, Strategyzer, and UX technoques. It's great for presenting too. The paltform is desinged to scale for teams and has great user and account managment tools. Guests can be invited to any baord for comment dn even to edit on the Consultant plan.
You can do just about anything in MIRO. And there are lots of post-it notes.

What do you dislike about the product?
Support is generally pretty good.
Some of my boards do not save to PDF correctly due to size.
I'd love to see some more robust hyperlinking between boards and the introduction of reusable components to speed wireframing.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Primairly we use MIRO to capture and communicate our THINKING.
Using boards for this has mad eit easy to work remotely with others and to get team input on projects.

Awesome Collab Tool
What do you like best about the product?
The different ways of how the tool can be used meaningful. From Projectplanning, Brainstorming, Meetings & Workshops
What do you dislike about the product?
It happens that every once in a while that when working on big boards, that people tend to shift the template in different directions.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In Particular due to the remote situation, we figured out how convenient it can be to work with Miro and use it as a tool to optimize workflows
Go-to collaboration tool for my remote team
What do you like best about the product?
Sometimes, I need to be able to draw something to make my point. And I'm a word person! With Miro, it's possible to convey my ideas visually rather than being stuck with words in a Google Doc. Because of this, it's become an essential too to collaborate with others on my remote team.
What do you dislike about the product?
From time to time my brower spazzes out while using Miro (flickers and makes it very difficult to use the tool). This rarely happens with other software on my computer.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Aligning with team members on key decisions & presenting ideas to executives.
Best cross team, cross-geo collab tool !
What do you like best about the product?
The simplicity of collab work via a uniquely simple interface, the safety of data, easy user management, integration with other UX related tools like Xd and Zeplin, easy to contact customer service, proactive support, and follow up
What do you dislike about the product?
Some times the tool is slower in performance, and the video call - collab options aren't yet up to the mark
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Across geo, a collaboration between product owners and UXers, development teams,, and businesses has enabled us to be more efficient. The information is accessible to all and can be shared between groups and even outside the company much more accessible than before
Flexibility for Creativity and Co-Creation
What do you like best about the product?
I love how flexible Miro's boards are and how I've been able to integrate them into so many projects, workshops, retros, and meetings. Just makes you smile when you can rely on your creativity to be the only obstacle in working remotely with your team and stakeholders.
What do you dislike about the product?
Has some learning curb to master all features. To get a 100% out of the Miro you need to invest time into learning since there is a ton of "hidden gems". But at the same time the simple UI makes it so easy for 1st timers to contribute I'm not sure I'd change it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Everything from Team retros to stakeholder workshops + a ton of UX flowcharts
Almost mandatory for remote collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
The giant whiteboard with many frames is great for visualizing and organizing ideas. The ability to easily invite anybody to collaborate. Many templates with a qualitative explanation about how to use them. Fool toolbox to animate workshops (timer, voting, présentation mode...)
What do you dislike about the product?
Some details are missing to make the boards visual, and it's sometimes challenging to find the action you are searching for
Impossible to have different alignment in the same text field. Right-click could be usefull

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The ability to collaborate remotely as we used to do with a whiteboard at the office.
Share analyze draw, fast diagram, fast design, vote ... so we save lot of time

Amazing space to get stuff done
What do you like best about the product?
I like how endless it is, and you can keep going and going with canvas after canvas and send links to a particular canvas. It's super intuitive too. Canvases and features are essential and valuable, especially the Post and flow charts. What I dislike about it is the arrows when you join two boxes together, the arrow is too thin to see, and you should be able to change the thickness of it.
What do you dislike about the product?
I mentioned the arrows above and changing thickness. Another minor annoying thing that I would love a fix for is if you import ten images, and then you want to frame them (create a frame feature) you have to do it individually. So now what you have is the ability to place thirty or forty jpgs onto a single canvas and then outline them or frame them some way. This is currently not how it's achieved though.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Given the fact that we operate our teams and work in a pandemic it has been an essential space for me to collect my thoughts and progress on a project. The feature that most benefits me is that Miro is one place to keep track of everything. This includes research like notes and things people say, the process of the design, capturing the collaborative comments from others on the team, comments essential to building good products and make team building more inclusive whilst working remotely.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
So to advise anyone to use Miro, I would ask What do I need it for? Will others use it? Will it be adopted into the team as an essential tool for the team and the customer? Will everyone make use of it? I think that it is a valuable tool for the type of projects that I work on and that you probably would find great value in it too.
The perfect tool for a really SMART working
What do you like best about the product?
The feature I like the most about Miro is the ability to create boards like pieces of paper and share them instantly with all my colleagues.
In a scattered world dependent on smart-working, I find very much value in share notes with my team in a creative space such as a Miro board.
The creativity is the second aspect I like the most in Miro: there is virtually no impossible thing in Miro, thanks to the choice of tools.

What do you dislike about the product?
There are only a few things that I dislike: in particular they mostly regard UX.
For examples, adapting the text to a sticky note is usually not very simple, and I generally incline for square shapes.
Also, locking contents and frames is sometime tricky, expecially when many users work on the same board, leading to minor inconveniences when people accidentally move frames.
Another feature that is sometimes a little annoying, is when I enter a board and it tells me all the changes that my team has done: after that I must click on every changed content to remove the notification.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I must share information with my colleagues, for which I usually would need paper (schemas, graphs, brainstorming, etc.), and I cannot simply use shared documents.
Also, I may need to use some template in order to achieve easier and quicker some result.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Miro is very simple and helpful: after months of smart working without a tool such that, where productivity dropped due to difficulty in communication, we finally had a place where communicating easily.
great for process facilitators
What do you like best about the product?
Having spent a lot of time in front of a whiteboard with teams of people I've found Miro to be the best substitute for when you can have people in the same room together. Like with anything new it takes a bit of work to get people comfortable and confident to express themselves but once the ice is broken Miro helps open up creativity and dialogue.
What do you dislike about the product?
The pricing. The cost is high. The free version is great but lacks video conferencing so you need to be ready to be quite hands-on and to have a patient and tech literate team.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ideation and Consensus based decision making.
