A staple collaboration tool within our daily lives
What do you like best about the product?
Most features are extremely useful, but to name a few - Timer, Voting, Templates, integration with JIRA & Confluence, Present Mode, ability to work on the same board with a large number of people, being able to see their cursors or hide them at choice, being able to drag them to you.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only major limiting factor for Miro that we face is how the Project Boards are organized. In a large organization with thousands of stakeholders and hundreds of Teams, usually it is organized by Departments rather than smaller Teams, meaning that the department shares the entire view of the individual Teams as well, and teams need to organize everything under a single project. It would be nice to be able to have more flexibility on this and allow us to almost create our own hierarchy for information management.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro has helped me create Product Roadmaps, User Story Maps, which have had the benefit of clearer planning, clearer scope and more accurate deliveries for both the team & our stakeholders.
My Review of Miro
What do you like best about the product?
It is a collaborative tool that allows me to work in a visual format. I am not joking when I say I use it daily, and often for hours each day. It is that integral to my work and how I work with my colleagues.
What do you dislike about the product?
A lot of what I dislike about Miro comes down to other people not using the tool well. It is a digital tool that does take some acclimating to get really good at, like any other system. Sticky notes on a wall are easy for everyone. Digital sticky notes on a digital wall somehow takes more skill.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Problem discovery, collaborative meetings across state or country lines, producing valuable insights or ideas, and generally taking better notes. Love the ability to drop a screenshot down then cluster stickies in contextual places on it.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use the Miro academy and templates as starters. There are a lot of really intelligent people who have put material together so don't feel like you need to re-invent the wheel.
Get your team working towards agile maturity...
What do you like best about the product?
Miro is intuitive to use and comes with a vast selection of templates to start off the most inept of user. The templates are broken down into simple to complex mapping diagrams for ease of communicating to your audience. You also have a plethora of sharing features to give your audience/guests the correct permissions. I also like the emojis and the symbols that come packed within the app for ease of illustrating diagrams.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some features are only available for certain plans, though the business package provides you with most of what you will need to get started.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have used miro for agile ceremonies, in particular, retrospectives, mapping workshops and technology diagrams. Miro makes it easy to illustrate complex diagrams in an easy fashion and without fuss.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Consider implementation of miro within your organisation, so that permissions and access can be managed appropriately.
One of the most flexible and easy to use white board solutions I have used until now.
What do you like best about the product?
Everything. Easy to use, flexible, very good performance, lots of addons, it just has everything I need to do whatever I need to do. From software planning to team-brainstorming.
What do you dislike about the product?
Until now, there was nothing that caused disatisfaction. Everything went smoothly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Creating complex overviews in a simple way and with ease of access
effective tool for interactive workshops, in person, online or mixed
What do you like best about the product?
beyond all things in common with other similar platforms, I prefer MIRO for the possibility of connecting shapes and texts with 1-click arrows
another thing I like very much is the possibility to attach links and have a snapshot of the web page linked

What do you dislike about the product?
Instability on browser OPERA, so I use two browsers in my facilitated workshops, but perhaps it is a limit of that browser
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Creating causal or mind maps, organizing exercises and activities in interactive workshops, all these in an agile way
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The best tool for in-person and remote or mixed interactive workshops
The go to place to visualise your ideas
What do you like best about the product?
The simplicity of use. You have readily available templates, shapes, & a lot of other features to get you up & running with minimal training needs. You name it & you have it!
What do you dislike about the product?
The good thing about Miro is the infinite boards that it provides. However, these can sometimes get difficult to manage if you have put a lot of ideas over several sessions. Unless you manage them properly it can get overwhelming to find out what you had worked on previously.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
There are many, but the most important for me is it helps to remove Chinese whispers. Without Miro it becomes difficult to convey to the team precisely on ideas you wish to discuss. Also, it has helped the teams I work with brainstorm better as they are able to visualise what each of them is talking about. And it's always there for the team to refer back to while discussing sequential features over weeks/months.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's an awesome tool to help you & your team collaborate even while sitting in the office.
A 'team' software.
What do you like best about the product?
I like the combination of contemporary visual tools such as Powerpoint and Prezi. You can have any type of workflow you find suitable, to think and present. I think it has no competition.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some initial bugs and issues are bothering me, such as failed ctrlC + ctrlV and dropping of internet connection. But, I believe they would get sorted out with time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are trying to develop a vision for the City of Seville as a part of our Semester project. We are more productive as a team and it also helps us to co-ordinate more. I am yet to use it with a Stylus, i think it would be better that way too.
Using Miro for Work Meetings
What do you like best about the product?
It is an amazing tool for work meetings that makes them more efficient than an actual presential work meeting, saving a lot of money in expenses when traveling is required
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't use it that often, so every time I use it I have to get familiar with how it operates, but I guess that is normal. It will be nice to have a quick guide (instructions) to get up to speed faster
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As a participant in work meetings. A benefit I have realized is that nobody is left behind, everybody can participate without even haven't to talk
Miro is a tool like no other. What would I ever do without it
What do you like best about the product?
Miro is not just product or customer-driven. It's an experience-driven tool that makes its users' lives simple. The ease of use, advanced capabilities and templates are just a few of the things that make miro such an exciting tool to use. Must have in stack no matter the role / function you are in.
What do you dislike about the product?
Hmmm this question is tricky because it's hard to think of a flaw. But I guess the navigation with a mouse is not as smooth as with a trackpad.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
A place to creativity collaborate with my team, pour out ideas, and make everything very visually appealing
I love Miro and I recommend it all the time!
What do you like best about the product?
I bought myself a subscription to Miro because I knew I would use it to its full capacities, I just didn't know what that looked like when I first signed up. Then I got into service design, systems thinking, and learning experience design, and Miro is perfect for planning projects, helping clients, building templates, and so much more. I also use it for personal brainstorming and vision boarding. Just in the past month, I've started to host collaborative meetings with clients and it brings so much energy to the meeting and we get so much done. I love the Miro webinars: they are entertaining, interesting, and super practical, and the wider Miro community is awesomely geeky. I love them all! I highly recommend attending a webinar; I learn a lot every time.
Even without the webinars, Miro is easy to use and there are so many great features. They have tonnes of great templates to use and it doesn't take long to start creating your own. My goal by the end of the year is to start submitting templates to Miroverse, Miro's community templates gallery. I love that as well - Miro is very community-minded.
I also use Mural, which is very good, but Miro is a superior product.

What do you dislike about the product?
I can't think of anything I don't like. Maybe one very small thing: I use the mindmap feature all the time and it asks me to review it EVERY time. That's a bit much.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
For me, the infinite canvas allows me to put all my notes, ideas, brainstorming and planning in one place. As a designer, I love the ability to zoom in and zoom out to see patterns in things like customer journey maps or problem maps. It also changes the way I am meeting with clients as working sessions are so much more productive. The ability to collaborate gives everyone a chance to participate which is rarely available in face-to-face or online meetings when only one person is speaking at a time.
