Essential Collaboration Platform with Powerful AI and Flexibility
What do you like best about the product?
Miro has become an essential part of my daily workflow at work. Initially, I used it simply as a digital whiteboard for brainstorming, but over time it has grown into a comprehensive platform for collaboration and creative thinking. Now, I rely on it for everything from ideation and solution architecture to design, documentation, workshops, retrospectives, and sprint planning.
What do you dislike about the product?
Miro can become sluggish and laggy as boards grow in terms of number of objects. The Mac app can also be sluggish after a number of opened tabs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
One of Miro’s greatest strengths is its flexibility. I use it for a wide range of tasks, including early-stage ideation and brainstorming, creating architecture and solution design diagrams, facilitating workshops and retrospectives, sprint planning, story mapping, as well as lightweight documentation and knowledge sharing. Rather than switching between several different tools, Miro offers a shared canvas that adapts seamlessly to my various workflows.
Miro also excels at enabling real-time collaboration within my team. Multiple users can contribute at the same time, and there is excellent support for asynchronous collaboration through features like comments, notes, and frames. I frequently rely on Miro's robust template library for common activities such as retrospectives, journey mapping, architecture diagrams, and brainstorming sessions. I also appreciate its extensive integration options and how simple it is to import and export artifacts.
Recently, the AI mode has become one of my favorite features. With just a bit of prompting, I can quickly bootstrap boards from scratch, generate structured outlines, diagrams, or workshop flows, and transform vague ideas into something concrete in no time.

Versatile and User-Friendly Collaboration Platform
What do you like best about the product?
I really appreciate Miro's ease of use; it's a versatile tool with a low learning curve that makes it easy to get started. I love the live collaboration feature with other users, which enhances the workflow. It's a great tool for mapping processes, workflows, and brainstorming. I also find the strong library of templates very useful, and it's free to use, which is a big plus.
What do you dislike about the product?
I didn't think there was an automatic export to Visio - Visio is still our corporate standard.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Miro for preparing flow charts, benefiting from its ease of use, live collaboration, and rich template library. It solves the issue of expensive licensing like in Visio and facilitates sharing and collaboration.
Collaborative and Easy to Use—A Standout Experience
What do you like best about the product?
This platform is collaborative and user-friendly, making it easy to understand. The interface is straightforward, which makes navigation simple and intuitive.
What do you dislike about the product?
Could do with some more features, eg, more selection of sizes
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Working with other and sharing content easily
Great Collaboration and User-Friendly Interface
What do you like best about the product?
I like the collaborative nature and interface for users
What do you dislike about the product?
Not much - I feel like the only thing that might be helpful is a log of everyones activities within the board
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps to create a collaborative space for multiple to brainstorm and have it all in a single place
Flexible collaborative whiteboard with real time Features
What do you like best about the product?
As its flexible for visual collaboration, drawing tools and real time collaborations.
What do you dislike about the product?
The app is closed-sourced. a partial or the core functionality should be made open-sourced or self-hostable.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Collaborative white board with variance of drawing tools.
A better way than the old Microsoft diagrams for boxes and arrows.
What do you like best about the product?
Honestly, the greatest advantage I've found is that I don't have to install it on all of our laptops like we did with the previous tool. Once I share the link with each person they can go ahead and arrange the sticky notes as needed. And the fact that it saves automatically has also been helpful since my laptop battery is about to die.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the connection arrows are very frustrating as they will snap to the wrong side of the box and I will have to go into an extreme level of detail (i.e. zoom in at 400%) in order to locate the tiny dot that connects the arrow to the box so that I can move it. At times the entire board becomes slow and unresponsive because there are too many large images/screenshots that were pasted onto the board.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My company uses this product to draw pictures of our servers, because prior to this method, we would email each other files back and forth and no one knew which file was the most current. Now, I simply create the flowchart on the board and if someone decides to delete it, that is their responsibility. Also, this allows us to avoid having team members walk to my desk to ask about the operation of the systems we design.
Good for Simple Tasks, But Lacks Advanced Integration
What do you like best about the product?
Miro is a very solid basic tool, easy for people to pick up for very simple tasks, and designing boards.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the more advanced features are not as user friendly and not very user intuitive. It also does not have a capability to auto pull data from ADO or Jira like other similar applications.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Virtual whiteboard
Essential Collaboration Tool for Seamless Remote Work
What do you like best about the product?
There is a rich portfolio of functionalities which are intuitive to use even for users new to the software. As of the ease of implementation, it works from every browser, even without a license or any pre-configurations, which is a game-changer for our teams. On top, there are multiple integrations available that allow to export data even outside of Miro.
What do you dislike about the product?
In my daily job, I have a paid license which is quite extensive - when I use it for personal purposes though, the free tier is quite limited, both in terms of boards and essential features.
Another problem I encountered is the performance with big boards with lots of content - it can be very slow to load and even lag when there are multiple users connected. This can really kill the momentum in a workshop.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro is my go-to tool I use daily to facilitate complex workflows between colleagues from different company areas, especially when we are connecting remotely from various locations. It allows me to co-create and collaborate on key deliverables of my daily work: product roadmaps, value streams, planning workshops, Objectives and Key Results...
Flexible and Intuitive for Complex Projects
What do you like best about the product?
I love how flexible Miro is, and how quick and easy it is to manipulate information across the board. I also appreciate the ability to share and give access to people, allowing us to collaborate on documents effectively.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing, I cant think of a fault for what we use it for
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Miro for planning and presenting website architecture. It helps map out big complex things in an understandable way, offers flexibility, and easy manipulation of information. It also allows sharing and collaboration on documents.
