A real boost to productivity in coaching sessions.

  • May 07, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Coaching sessions in classrooms can sometimes be quite restrictive and often cumbersome with many people putting post-its on walls and then difficult to organise in teams. We find it easy to add post-its, move them from feature to feature, group them and build out from them. More importantly, every team member can come back to the board and self-reflect anytime they want to.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are few matters, if any, I dislike about the app but I do find the various subscription models confusing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I deliver complex strategic planning executive coaching sessions and then provide agile ways of working - discovery, exploration, mapping, elaboration, and delivery exercises. The whole process is "generative", and the Miro boards help me get everyone involved in creating ideas and resolving. It helps everyone work in a manner where active listening and servant leadership principles can develop and dramatically improve the teams' productivity.

Best collaborative reviewing software EVER

  • May 07, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's SO intuitive - You can copy and paste an image or document right into it - it updates in real time - you can use the "follow" tool to see what your coworkers are working on
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing... honestly it's the best collaborative software ever. I wish the Adobe creative suite had its capabilities
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Answering questions In real time.
Reviewing content with multiple people at one - while not in person
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Amazing while working away from co worrkers. Totally worth it. Nothing else quite like it.

Making virtual collaboration intuitive, fun, and full-featured!

  • May 07, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The tool has a fantastic range of tools and a friendly interface. I really like that I can work at the speed of meetings without having practiced too much so that, by the end of a session, I can have nicely arranged deliverables that can be presented to partners, clients, and leaders. Using this product has earned us the reputation of being trusted facilitators but not being too "out there".

We have used Miroverse templates with great success (especially the Crisis curve template and the Design Jam template), and we're building and re-using our own templates as well.
What do you dislike about the product?
Video conferencing needs full screenshare. Some of the templates can sometimes get in the way of themselves, making them less useful than recreating them from scratch. The tool needs the ability to turn charts into excel files and to do excel-style formatting. Additionally, the filing system for boards needs to become more dynamic - maybe adding an "unsorted" folder and/or an easy way to batch-move boards into folders would help.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We run strategic planning workshops, brainstorms, and even client meetings in Miro, with great result. We're teaching internal teams to do product increment planning through Miro and to move meetings from static activities to collaborative sessions. More gets done in meetings, more decisions are made, and people are happier now that we use Miro, and I'd say that we're getting great value out of the product. I'd recommend it for entire teams and divisions as part of business transformation.

Miro brings the team together

  • May 07, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Miro facilitates conversation and action by providing a visual representation for ideas, feedback, brainstorming, data and more. Miro saves time by allowing us to prepare in advance and then during a meeting all work on the same board at the same time.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are a limited number of boards that can be created, unless upgraded. Otherwise, no complaints at all.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have been able to brainstorm around possibilities in an efficient manner. We have also been able to create workflows in a visual format using a collaborative style.

Simply the best whiteboard software available

  • May 06, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The templates are incredibly helpful. There is just so much variety and all expertly done. Saves you so much time having to think about what kind of diagram is best for the ideas you're discussing with the team. In our team now, we've started to choose Miro over a physical whiteboard.

Miro is also incredibly dynamic - you can do everything from mindmaps to wireframes. It's great to have everything in one single place.

Miro also makes sharing really easy; from team members, guests to public. It is very easy to set different permission levels and also revoke them when required. Makes sure any sensitive information isn't available for too long.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing majorly. I've had a couple of hick-ups previously and the Miro team took a while to respond - there doesn't seem to be a live customer service so that would be good to have. But they're always adding new features and improving the platform. Not had any issues now for a long time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's an easy to use collaborative whiteboard software. It's great for creating mindmaps, jotting down ideas or even planning. We always try to use Miro asap in any meeting rather than discussing theoretical - visualising it makes sure everyone in the team is on the same page and Miro makes it so easy to do that.


    Architecture & Planning

Awesome interactive tool with infinite uses.

  • May 06, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Unlimited drawing space. Fluidity of moving around objects. Quickly add images, text, annotations.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish the drawing tools were more robust. for example, transparency in shapes, etc.
Also, I find seeing other user's pointers on the board moving around distracting. Would like to be able to turn off user visibility.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Solving the problem of having one 'spot' to put all information, be it graphic, text or otherwise.

We use Miro for any type of group collaborations

  • May 06, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
A lot of features that help me to interact with others. For example timer, voting, internal boards and tools.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like to see more any kind of Agile tools: backlog, retro and others.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are encouraging everyone to take part in decisions. So we are using Miro to facilitate our product discoveries activities, our planning sessions, retro and workshops.
It’s really easy to interact with others and design any workshop we would like.


    E-Learning

Miro rocks!

  • May 06, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Not an exaggeration, Miro has changed the way I work over the course of the last three years (Realtime, what!?). Our team has the ability to plan and develop ideas together and with customers at an increased pace. I am the one who introduced Miro to my team, so thank you for making me look awesome. :-)
What do you dislike about the product?
When we share a board with someone who does not have an account, they always request an account from one of the admins. It would be nicer if it was easier to view things as a guest.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am an eLearning developer, and I use Miro heavily in the discovery and development phase of building a project. This makes sure that everyone is on the same page with the scope and delivery of the project. Then everything I create can easily transition to JIRA in the form of issues that are worked on in a sprint.

We also use it as an organization to model workflows and processes.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Learning how to use Miro has changed the way that I work with my team for the better. Can't recommend it enough.

Great templates!

  • May 06, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I quite like the templates on Miro. There are lots of Six Sigma, Design Thinking, and Creative Problem Solving (CPS) graphic organizers and great icons for creating WireFrames.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the software flickers when too many are collaborating on a board simultaneously, especially, when also viewing on a web conferencing platform. The orientation on the board can get confusing and defaults to very small, so sometimes, we start playing with the sizing and are actually viewing at 1% but the board is huge, then when adding new boards, they seem impossibly small at 1%. Perhaps another mechanism for zooming in and out but the actual board sizes stay a consistent size.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use it for Wireframes. I use it for what I call CPS Targeting but others might call Force Field Analysis and I think Miro calls Lightning. I use it for Kanban or Scrum boards. I use it for Stick'Em Brainstorming. I use it for CPS Praise First POINt. I use it for Card Sort. One thing I like about Miro from other similar technologies is how professional it looks for those in engineering or business. It is so very easy to use and intuitive. I love collaboration, and I love online collaboration. This makes it easy to do.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Like all technolgy, introduce your team to a quick tutorial on Miro with video, best practices, and then dive into your collaborative work together.

A great virtual solution for collaborative work and Design Thinking

  • May 06, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Concurrent virtual space for sharing ideas,
Work designated can be easily tracked
Tasks can be assign and validated.
Notifications can be enabled.
Sticky are easy to paste.
Posters creation for the features of the product is easy with a lot of graphics supported.
Task boards can easily be drawn like on Whiteboard and each task can be linked with multiple users.
Communication is easy due to link generation of not only for the overall board but also for each item posted on the board.
Email notifications are also easy to send.
Polls can be done with a feature of Timer
What do you dislike about the product?
Export in Excel just export content in a list and these are not in sequence due to usual Boards structures, some better options should be there.

Linking with Jira should be easy, we faced issues while we were doing it.

Shouldn't be an open URL like www.miro.com/#####, a server to be hosted in the data center where the client is big. For example it should be www.companyname.com/####

Camera/ Video / Meeting enablement would provide this tool and end to end coverage for the overall virtual office experience
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using for the following purposes/ benefits in order of most usage:
Design Thinking Engine
Kanbans boards
Task definition, prioritization, ranking and assignment
Brainstorming/ quick review
Day to day activities of the team

We resolve below problems:
Lack of Whiteboard availability in virtual meetings
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I recommend that do purchase a meeting tool as currently Miro do not have build in virtual meeting capability. We used it with Webex and it works fine.
Also for us multiple downloading of files wasnt there. plz check with support.
Also check if there is an upload limit.
