Miro is one of my main tools as a product designer
What do you like best about the product?
I like the free-form essence of it. I can quickly create a mind-map while it's fresh in my mind. I use it at least a few times a week to get ideas out of my head and onto "paper." Then I have boards where I collaborate with my teammates to brainstorm everything from branding sprints to mapping out a system for marketing and design to collaborate. It's just really sturdy, and I've used it for many years since it was initially called "Realtimeboard." Fantastic UX.
What do you dislike about the product?
The freemium plan is very limited. I'm used to Slack and Figma, which really give you a lot as a personal user or freelancer, and they make money off businesses. I struggle to come up with any other negatives.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use it for our design sprints. That could be for a feature or for branding itself. I recently used it to develop a process mindmap that details how our marketing and design teams can work together. WIthout a visual, it's almost impossible to explain to somebody else. With Miro, I can do it all pretty quickly and effortlessly. Lastly, I love to use it for moodboards.
To Miro or Not To Miro (that is the question)!
What do you like best about the product?
I was a little late to MIRO! I was the "person" that other people shared their miros with. Times have changed... now all 40+ people on my team share their miro on a weekly basis. It is a great way to have a visual representation of their work/progress and to be able to share with The Verse team at large. We use miro for ideation, product development sessions, and onboarding.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sharing of miros across free plan. I wish I could share more miros with others who have a free plan.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Visualization of products. Visualization of community. Visualization of game narratives and game mechanics.

I have used a number of whiteboards and visual tools... Miro is the best! Miro is a great collaboration tool!
How Miro is effective for Brainstorming and Record Keeping
What do you like best about the product?
I am a huge fan of how many functionalities and customizations Miro has to offer. Whether it be the ability to present within tjhe board or to collaborate with others, it is an all around great tool. Frames have been particularly helpful when it comes to showing othe rpeople testing results and doing patient interviews.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike that there is no way to save a "template" for a cluster of shapes. For example, each day I use the same combination of 3 squares connected by lines (the top square is for the date and test method, the middle square is for the picture and title of the feature we are exploring, and the third bottom square is for the numerical results). The next day I have to copy and paste the previous day's squares and erase all of it's content, then start again which is very time consuming. If there was a way to save a blank cluster of shapes and words that would be awesome.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am solving the problem of organization and collaboration in our team. With the pandemic, a lot of the engineers who did admin work and not testing like the interns were working from home because their work did not require being in office. This caused a disconnect between WFH staff and in-person staff. Miro helped to breach the gap and provided us with a solution to stay connected. It is also great for record keeping becauyse boards never expire.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Miro is a great collaboration tool, especially for large groups doing a brainstorming session (where the timer, and calling people to where you are on the board comes in handy), presentations (where frames and ability to google image search come in handly) and record-keeping (where arrows, links to files, and timestamps come in handy). I would suggest not over-crowding a board as it will eventually become very laggy due sto many different sections having to load.
Awesome
What do you like best about the product?
Miro is a must have for running sessions with a distributed people. Love the features of being able to follow people, the recent addition of a good integration with google docs, so you can embed them and update on the fly without leaving miro
What do you dislike about the product?
Controls can feel a little quirky at first and its easy for people to accidentally move things around if you forget to lock down a frame. There is a little quirk where multi-selecting something new will sometimes also select the previous objects which is a bit annoying.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
- large scale facilitation with people across different locations
- quick option for capturing ideas and iterating on them
- useful to create goal trees and current reality trees

I would seriously struggle to do my job without it
One product to rule them all
What do you like best about the product?
Miro is a great product for brainstorming, product discovery and product management in general. In addition, I find all the templates very useful. Compared to competitors it is easier to use
What do you dislike about the product?
It's not super easy to integrate Jira with Miro even though integration is available. Also, the mobile version is not yet easily used. I wish I had a better mobile (iPad) version.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I solved the communication problem between the product team and other members of the company. It also allows me to have all the tools I need to do strategic and tactical planning on a single board.
Amazing Experience

As a UI UX designer I utilize Miro a lot for whiteboard discussions, collaborative work, design planning, design feature analysis and a whole lot;
What I love about it is it easy-to-use and low learning curve;
Their helpful tooltip, their very helpful FAQs, the straightforwardness of the tools and how simple but powerful it is.
It even provides wireframing capabilities.

What do you dislike about the product?
My only dislike for miro is how the free version is only limited to three active boards at a time and how I personally feel its pricing is relatively a bit expensive.

Not just a great tool, but invaluable support!
What do you like best about the product?
I love how I can set up a collaborative online session for and with others: the templates are great, and it nonetheless allows me to use my own stuff, too. What I really value most though is miro´s outstanding support team: whenever I have a question, they get back to me in a helpful AND friendly matter. Amazing!!!!!
What do you dislike about the product?
Whatever I have not found so intuitive in the past, was fed back and changed accordingly. So not much to dislike, honestly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I work with remote individuals to train them on their entrepreneurial journeys. The benefits were better understanding of startup processes AND peer learning, thanks to the miro boards we were using.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try it, use it, and on your way to routine, seek help from your peers AND from the great support team!
Great collaboration tool
What do you like best about the product?
Miro gives you a lot of freedom to depict anything you want. I love the vast choice of templates that makes it so easy to start working. Collaborating is super easy and makes remote working soo much easier.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'm missing the possibility to create folders insight of a project in order to structure my work even better.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our team members work from different parts of the world. Miro makes it so easy to work together on the same board at the same time. Thoughts and ideas can be put down within minutes in a clear and structured way and easily be shared even with people who have no Miro account.
Miro - The best!
What do you like best about the product?
I love how I can easily adapt the board to fit my needs and how I want to organize my content. For example, the post-it's feature makes it easy to brainstorm and come up with all the ideas I need for my team to succeed!
What do you dislike about the product?
I find the mouse cursor difficult to use, but that being said there are tons of articles on the community forum that are helpful and can solve my issues. I would also like a bigger selection of templates!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am finding ways to display products we designed to clients in one document in visually appealing way. Beforehand, we used pdfs that took hours to edit and adjust, whereas Miro provides an easy to use platform.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use templates! You will find them super useful. Also, feel free to play around with the sizes of items. The limitless nature of the board means you can go as big or as small as you want!
Start Up Design and Media Studio in the middle of the pandemic - Going great with the help of Miro
What do you like best about the product?
The performance of the service from anywhere on basically any device has been amazing. We collaborated as a team, alongside clients, and consultants virtually for over a year now with people from all over the contiguous US and with our talented artists in India. It made visual communication a pleasure, considering we were working together for the first time, within our brand new startup. Miro is incredibl intuitive with simple and powerful tools for visual thinkers.
What do you dislike about the product?
Since we are making lots of animated content, it would be fantastic to embed video files directly into Miro. I completely understand that it would need to be a premium feature just due to file hosting sizes, but I think it would be worth it to us. It pairs nicely with Vimeo or youtube, so we still can do what we want, but the pure convenience and time saved with draft content for internal review would make Miro more valuable to our organization.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use miro for our ideation phase, storyboarding, draft graphics, and posting conceptual sketches, inspirational content as well as scripts. It allows transparency and collaboration in our processes in a non-stressful way on our own time in multiple time zones. Miro is a hub to many of our processes and it's gauranteed to contain the latest information shared between teamates.
