Useful tool for remote collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
I found the ease with which people can familiarise themselves with the basics a huge benefit, allowing teams to begin collaborating quickly. As the team becomes more familiar with the basics there are more powerful tools for them to grow into using.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have found that the flexibility on how some of the tools are implemented, such as grids, has led to users finding new and interesting ways to break the boards. This is easily combated with a little guidance at the beginnning of sessions and some preperation to lay things out but, initially this was an issue i had to work around.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Much of the work i do was traditionally done face to face around a big wall with post its. The restrictions implemented around COVID initially made this impossible and Miro was the best tool i found, of the many i experimented with, that allowed me to run the same type of workshops remotely. This has continued to benefit our organisation as the covid restrictions have been reduced by allowing people to attend sessions who would have been difficult to engage in the past (geographically spread-out teams). Even face to face sessions now employ Miro as it allows us to capture ideas as we run the sessions rather than lengthy write up, increasing efficiency significantly.

Overall very useful tool, that does a lot microsoft office cannot do.
The end to end of a product planning including prototyping can be done in a big canvas.
What do you like best about the product?
Wireframe features, frame to help us make presentation slides quickly. I can do up my presentation, create wireframe and drive the discussion. It is a lot easier to use than mural.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some template like customer journey is quite difficult to use and when downloading the customer journey map which is long, the download become very pixelated and unpleasant
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Collaboration with different users to put in their inputs timely, miro is the best tool to help. The number of limited users and adding them to team actually slow down the process of quick collaboration.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Miro is the simplest tool that enable you to collaborate seamlessly to one another!
Excellent easy to use collaboration tool
What do you like best about the product?
The way I can get all stakeholders involved. They like the tool so much they start adding to the boards themselves and pick up the tool very quickly.
What do you dislike about the product?
The layering of elements, it is difficult to get elements to appear in the correct order if at all.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In a time when we can not be all in the same room, its a digital whiteboard. Helps people feel involved. A very fast way to mock up a customer flow through a particular journey.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
There is a short learning curve to getting to grips with the features and functionality. Once you use this with a team of people and you realise how much back and forth via email it prevents you will wonder how you worked without it!
Life saver for virtual collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
Being able to jump in and collaborate virtually with a dispersed team.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not being able to share only one board with guests.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Play around and get to know the templates and functionalities.
Great solution for brainstorming, I love it because it's like being all in the same room.
What do you like best about the product?
Miro is ideal for meetings and brainstorming sessions. I enjoy the timing, dot voting, sticky notes, uploading photographs, and so on. Seeing what participants are doing in real time makes it much easier to facilitate sessions remotely. Miro is my go-to choice for brainstorming and research sessions. I like the process in Miro, as well as the templates and the various possibilities that this platform provides, because it provides a very comfortable user experience and plenty of space for ideas.
What do you dislike about the product?
For the time being I am pleased with the features, however additional elements such as point voting may be developed to make it more appealing. Research category divides inside a dashboard may be improved, and frames could offer more color options or their own identities. Miro can create better choices in which individual notes or references are exported separately.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Remote discussions have been challenging to support using more static systems such as Notion or Google Docs. Miro adds a spatial aspect to the screen, allowing our team to work on a collaborative board in a non-linear sequence. We may freely shift objects around to rearrange our thoughts and think we're in the same place. We have a better knowledge of the study by displaying all of the possibilities and ideas on a clear board; this helps me when deciding on a direction for the project or product we are developing. Collaborations in Miro bring various benefits by providing feedback during brainstorming, therefore having a Miro board aids in teamwork.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Getting started with Miro might be difficult for novice users who are unfamiliar with design tools. If you've used tools like Figma before, you'll be familiar with the shortcuts that make navigating the UI a breeze. Use Miro as much as possible as an interactive platform. Miro is a platform where not just the text or notes are part of the study, but the entire user experience design.
For live discussions.
What do you like best about the product?
I like Miro is very good and with capabilities, which allow:
Write thoughts on the board to later organize and map them.
Have multiple idea boards in one place that are all linked to the same problem.
You can have standard-sized notes to fit whatever you want and still view them using simple zoom in and out capabilities.
Organize material on a board and highlight issues that are relevant to a query or task.
Useful for work teams to input and collaborate on ideas in real-time through remote connections.

What do you dislike about the product?
For beginners who are not tech-savvy, Miro's learning curve is relatively steep.
The look is expensive.
I would like Miro to include writing options.

I recommend Miro is useful for strategic planning, project management, mind maps, design processes and inspiration boards, to capture ideas and projects with the participation of work teams.
Great collaboration tool
What do you like best about the product?
The simplicity of the collaboration board. It let's multiple users or groups work together with ease. We mostly used it for mindmaps or for brainstorm sessions to solve difficult challenges.
What do you dislike about the product?
The board to work on can get quite a bit messy. A tool to organize it would be extremely helpful. For example, people keep adding sticky notes to the board and it would be helpful if you can organize it with 1 click.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were working on multidisciplinary challenges. Miro was a good collaboration tool to share our thoughts and progress. It was mostly used for brainstorm sessions or for voting of ideas
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Great tool for anyone looking for a collaboration tool
Exceptional for Collaboration with Room for UX Improvement
What do you like best about the product?
I love how Miro seamlessly integrates with other tools like Azure and Office365, which enhances our work collaboration significantly. The platform's ability to sync with tools we already use is invaluable, making Miro not just a standalone tool but an integrated part of our tech stack, which feels essential rather than supplementary. The template options in Miro are particularly helpful as they provide a structured way to organize and revisit information, making meetings and thought processes much more coherent and manageable. This structural capability of Miro reduces the risk of chaos often associated with digital whiteboarding, ensuring that we can track discussions and make sense of them both in real-time and afterwards. Moreover, the widespread adoption of Miro within our team gives it the critical mass needed to feel like a cornerstone for our collaborative work rather than a secondary tool. Finally, the initial setup process was straightforward, thanks in part to our company's infrastructure, which further demonstrates Miro's user-friendly nature.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find scrolling and resizing or zooming in and out to be a persistent challenge when sharing a screen or moving around on an iPad. I primarily use an iPad for my work, and if the tablet experience is difficult, it complicates my workflow. Ideally, the interface should be seamless so the focus remains on the information, not the tool. Additionally, I haven't found effective mouse or hotkey options for navigating the screen, which makes the zoom or scroll experience less intuitive. These user experience issues, while minor, are frustrating.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Miro for visualizing collaboration, organizing thoughts, and integrating with tools like Azure and O365. It provides structure through templates, facilitating asynchronous idea sharing and effective planning.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
As with anything, the discipline you apply to organizing your information plays an important role in your ability to resurface it. With great power comes great responsibility...you know the drill. Miro doesn't seem to limit any form of creativity, so press into the cool features and let them know when you do something uniquely cool so that they can help the rest of us figure out how to apply it in our situation.
