A great collaboration tool to bring in all stakeholders on thematic roadmaps and business ideas

  • May 06, 2021

What do you like best about the product?
I like how easy it is to work on ideas and whiteboard with your teammates. It helps align the group on the different areas of focus and the results of a brainstorming session. It's a great live collaboration tool where it is easy for users to see where their teammates are on the board and to understand their frame of thought.

Because it's a visual approach to brainstorming and things are draggable, it is so easy to take ideas that are brought up in the meetings and prioritize them based on the business objectives. This feature is essential as it allows all team members to feel that active listening is happening in the discussion, and ideas don't just disappear off the map when they are brought up.

Another thing I love is that I can integrate Miro to my Confluence write ups so it can also be included in all its glory on the technical specs.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not something I dislike, but the viewing format is best on a very large screen especially when the team is discussing a large mindmap or something of that nature. When viewing on a smaller screen or sometimes a mobile device, seeing it and contributing to the discussion is hard.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Miro to communicate logic and user flows; it has been great in getting other teams' feedback on an artifact from the brainstorming/alignment meetings to make sure it best represents how the group feels.

Now that we are virtual and in-person whiteboard meetings are impossible, Miro has been critical in accelerating the adoption process to an all-virtual work-from-home environment. By using this tool as the primary document or artifact of the brainstorming sessions, it focuses the discussion on the topics on the board and keeps the debate on topic.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Spend some time with the templates to understand the full scope of possibilities with the platform.

Simple, fun, complex, perfect!

What do you like best about the product?
I stumbled across Miro when on a course and found it really easy to pick up and use. Some of the more complex features are fantastic but don't need to be utilised to enjoy Miro fully if you don't want/need to use them. It makes collaboration a breeze and the power of the tool to allow multiple users in the same space to edit is really impressive. It's quite therapeutic watching lots of cursors flying around the screen!
What do you dislike about the product?
Not much at all. I didn't like the table creation aspect, but low and behold the next update included paste from Excel capabilities! Perhaps the moving around of boards and permissions could be a bit better, as it does feel a little clunky at times, but that's it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use it in the business to gather ideas as a group and on my own. We've got entire projects sitting in Miro using the frames function, and it's a really quick and easy way to keep everyone updated. Visually seeing the stages of a project helps so much more than just seeing it in a chart.

Great Collaboration Tool

  • May 06, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Ability to all share a work space and collaborate in real time.
What do you dislike about the product?
None so far. I think the single sign on process has made logging in a lot easier.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are discussing research and sharing ideas on one central board. It has been great in creating process and mind maps and colour coordinating ideas.

Our favourite tool!

  • May 06, 2021

What do you like best about the product?
I like how it allows our team to work collaboratively and in a very agile way. It is very versatile and we can use it in 1000 different ways and for many purposes, from running workshops to planning, showcasing presentations to designing prototypes, etc.
I love the integration with other tools such as the icons library, images, and the facilitation support functionalities such as the timer, always very helpful during our workshops.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are some functionalities that we are used to in other programs, such as creating build-ups for presentations, that it doesn't allow us to do yet, and so we need to find a workaround.
The way how folders are organized, with very big projects, it isn't easy to find the right board; therefore, it would be great to have a system with sub-folders.
We usually don't use the video camera functionality as sometimes it doesn't work so well and we don't see each other, or the camera stays on top of the content. We prefer having another video call application on another screen where we can see everyone and at the same time have the Miro board full space.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're able to work completely remote with our team and it has allowed us to reach people from all around the world to participate in workshops together.
It makes design research easier as all the activity happens in the Miro board directly and the synthesis is much faster, the production of visuals and project outcomes is also much more agile.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would definetely use the Frames functionality, it really helps to keep your content organised and to navigate easily through the board.

What do you like best about the product?
Ability to start with a blank slate and make our work visible!
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it's hard for people to get in. Have to remember to change the link so everyone can get access.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
not being able to physically be at the same whiteboard together. Benefit is our work is visible and we can collaborate together!

I like mind mappings and integrating of icons
What do you dislike about the product?
Mind maps could have more details like icons and forms.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In the early stages of digital product development, miro helps structure thoughts.

Fast, reliable and self-explanatory

What do you like best about the product?
The best thing for teachers is the free upgrade. School isn't just about teaching; it's about project management. In Miro, you can work on development projects with all colleagues in a relaxed manner without losing sight of the goal! The visualization helps everyone involved to design complex projects "simply."
What do you dislike about the product?
I also work in teacher training and present Miro there as a perfect software option. Many colleagues are "afraid" to register because they have had bad experiences with other products. To get a "look" at the product without registering would be awesome. At least for my requirements.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As mentioned above, this allows us to visualize more complex projects very well. In addition, you can directly name those responsible for the area. What software can be used in the economy because the money is it is not possible in the public service. Therefore an excellent alternative!

    Non-Profit Organization Management

Using Miro as a visual space for brainstorming

  • May 06, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
As a development professional, I use Miro to help me brainstorm and "sell" complex ideas within our organization. For those of us who appreciate the power of visualizations, Miro has truly been a game changer in that it allows me to create complex visuals without being resource or time intensive.
What do you dislike about the product?
Honestly the only thing is miss are circular symmetry tools. Would be excellent to have the possibility to distribute evenly around a circle or arc.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I think maybe my use case is slightly different than users in the private sector, but for non-profits, I think it's an excellent tool. Or organization had a head office in Norway with 21 country offices around the world. Our Norway office is where the majority of the strategy and policy is generated for the organization which means that we need to be able to communicate these ideas in a clear way in many different international contexts. For that reason, I have relied a lot on visualizing strategy/policy rather than trying to explain solely in narrative form.

It's flexible

  • May 06, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Freedom that does not interfere with the process of thinking.
Functional upgrading speed is fine.
What do you dislike about the product?
The worst thing is that you can only have two levels of board and you can't categorize the board in your project. At least 3 levels are required.I've already told Miro about this, but it hasn't improved.
As the number of items increases, the operation of the PC becomes heavier.
I'm always confused by the optimal board magnification settings.
I don't know how much magnification I should start drawing to make it easier to handle even if the picture gets bigger.
Text fields can behave strangely when filled with a lot of text.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
・ For personal work to analyze my problems
・ For remote work when analyzing research results with team members
・ Present the STORY to tell

Story presentation needs frequent zoom-in and out during the speech. I usually utilize 'prezi' as my presentation tool; however, it is only for presentation. I can use Miro as an analyzing tool, too.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's so easy to use. I think it's a friendly tool to get started.
We also believe that the features are frequently updated so that we can improve them together.
You can use it individually or as a team.
