Collaborate on almost anything
What do you like best about the product?
The sheer number of possibilities of what Miro can be used for and the ability to collaborate efficiently in real-time on any of them. it’s one of those tools where you are unsure how you managed without it.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the output cannot be controlled visually and you are reliant on the objects in their toolset. If you are a control freak then you may not like the fact you are reliant on the shapes, fonts and colours that are pre-built into the app.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Miro for so many things it’s impossible to list them but here are some examples:
Design thinking workshop collaboration
Service blueprint visualisation
Documentation for wireframes and UI design
User flows, screen flows, process flows (so many flows)

Recommendations to others considering the product:
You may need to reconsider how you work and allow yourself to give in to the collaborative tools here instead of relying on old individual ways of working. There are tools that do some of what is available in Miro but there are very few tools that do everyhing.

Small scale trial first
Fun App
What do you like best about the product?
There are endless ways Miro can be used for personal and professional projects. Since it's like a giant blank canvas, you can organize all your thoughts on one page and zoom in to specific pieces as needed, avoiding the annoyance of having to scroll through multiple pages to find something. It's also very easy/straight forward to use and is great for real-time collaboration with colleagues.
What do you dislike about the product?
Miro is constantly upgrading and improving it's tools and interface so there isn't much to dislike.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The kanban tool has been great for keeping track of assignments and progress made towards the end goal. The sticky notes add an additional layer allowing for notes outside the kanban.
Best Collaborative Whiteboard
What do you like best about the product?
Platform's flexibility, stability, and responsiveness
What do you dislike about the product?
No Marquee selection so selecting multiple objects have to be done with a Shift+Click method. Also, I'd really like a plugin with Zoom and the SAP Litmos LMS.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Easy pre-set whiteboards to provide what paper on walls gave from In-person classes for the required virtual classes
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make backup copies of your boards so you can easily re-use them. Lock down background objects on the board to prevent users from accidentally moving or changing them..
Great virtual whiteboard platform
What do you like best about the product?
My company uses Miro to visually manage work, and I'm not sure what we'd do without it. It has lean and agile workflow templates to design and brainstorming workshop templates and everything in between. If you want your members of your team to be aligned and track work visually and effectively, using Miro as a hub for all your team's work is a great solution.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are some UX things that are tricky to navigate sometimes. There's a bit of a learning curve which is why it's not a 10, but overall this is a great product.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Problems Miro helps solve: lack of alignment between team members, inability to effectively visualize work
Benefits: increased alignment, communication, and a true visual management system

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Great place to think, add templates to organize thoughts and paste anything.
RD Review
What do you like best about the product?
The options to navigate and create templates, the tools which allow make customization on boards and templates, the way to select and limit areas to focus during online workshops
What do you dislike about the product?
while I type sometimes I felt lost, clicks seem to be not so accurated, while someone is editing I can't click on the area around. Limited options for typography.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
place to organize ideias and create templates. It is easier to use and visually comfortable.
Using Miro as an Educator and School by S.Kim
What do you like best about the product?
I enjoy that Miro allows for real live-time collaboration and updates for team use. It has been very useful during meetings when people need to brainstorm in real-time and can follow along on one Miro board.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the left sidebar can get a bit tricky because there are so many options and buttons. I think it would be useful if Miro could simplify this left sidebar option. The Zoom In/Out function can also sometimes be fuzzy. Additionally, when uploading photos, sometimes they appear fuzzy and it requires refreshing/zooming in for the photo to load at its fullest/highest quality.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I've been using Miro for a lot of visual collaboration especially now with COVID. Through the Educator function, I am able to make and create a Miro board that anyone is able to join/collaborate with, without the hassle of having people make accounts (aka the Anonymous Guest feature). I also use it for my club organization brainstorming sessions and it is nice because in person we would usually brainstorm using a whiteboard but cannot do that anymore, so Miro is an excellent alternative.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would recommend people to consider investing in an Education plan if they are planning on using Miro for brainstorming and/or education. I think students have a lot of fun with the collaborative features of Miro and it makes for an alternative experience that was been altered by COVID. Students enjoy having something to visualize and it's difficult to completely replace that with something virtual, but Miro does a great job of that "whiteboard" lesson feeling that I think everyone could benefit from.
Miro lives up to the Online Visual Collaboration Platform for Teamwork and may more use cases
What do you like best about the product?
I love the existing templates and the descriptions that come with the templates which makes it easier to create effective boards for any audience, team or user. I also love the avatar follow feature, whenever is someone is interacting on the miro board if others click on the main person the screen moves along with main user interaction.
What do you dislike about the product?
The process of sharing isn't so intuitive and easy to do compared to creately, mural, canva and similar apps. I think if sharing is made easier for people outside a team to collaborate and leave comments will be a huge benefit. I also think the export process can be improved too so that user can get the best quality out of their boards shared to guests, maybe a description of the sharing formats and what they're best used for will be most impactful. I understand Miro works best within Miro but even an option where you can save a frame as a high-quality PowerPoint will be great. Nevertheless, these dislikes are minor however should be looked at
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm solving a lot of problems with Miro from tackling users needs and problems to creating an end to end service map and diagrams. The benefits of Miro realized are truely invaluable making myself and my team save more time and also be more creative
Miro, a relief in a time of miscommunication
What do you like best about the product?
I love the templates they are a great tool that allow me to analyze different assignments and task
What do you dislike about the product?
I think the delay that sometimes has when I have too much information in my whiteboard
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm communicating all the aspects of lecture with my professor, we can easily see the production of the students and in the end, feedback is faster
