Miro makes meetings more collaborative
What do you like best about the product?
Miro has a mirade of tools that make meetings more collaborative and engaging while also making the take aways easily sharable. All of the fun of whiteboarding without all of the hassle of trying to document the session.
What do you dislike about the product?
My only real complaint is that it can be a challenge to consolidate multiple accounts. So if possible, setup a corporate account before bottom up growth makes consolidation difficult.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro has all of the flexibility needed for complex cross team collaboration.
I love using Miro to organize and collaborate on ideas on a canvas
What do you like best about the product?
The Miro canvas is plentiful. You can add many different bodies of work over time, and reference them when neededed. There is no need to create multiple boards if you can just use one board for various project collaboration sessions.
What do you dislike about the product?
Navigation on the canvas can get challenging some times. Between zooming in and out, and navigating up/down and side-to-side, it can get quite confusing some of the time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
An environment to organize unstructured thoughts and data in a flexible environment.
MIRO is an incredibly powerful collaborative tool!
What do you like best about the product?
MIRO is intuitive, user friendly, and facilitates incredible collaboration for remote working.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the formatting options could be developed.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In my role in improvement, which is largely remote in nature, MIRO enables efficient and effective collaboration in a way that is better than other similar products. It's intuitive to use, which is important when using it with colleagues who are not already familiar with its use. It has all the features you would expect from such a tool, including comments, sharing, etc.
I've used many diagramming tools. I find Miro the most user friendly
What do you like best about the product?
There are two main draws for Miro for me - the ease of use and the design language. The ease of use of Miro has been instrumental in creating architecture diagrams, charts, and other assets that are critical in my role. Adding new components and editing them is fast. Moving around the board is also very intuitive, with a left click to select and right click to pan. I rarely have to fight Miro to get it to do what I want to do, which I can't say for other diagramming tools.
The second draw is the design language. It looks good out of the box, which enables me to create presentable, customer facing boards without doing too much work. Navigating around the UI is also very pleasant.This is really critical because the learning curve is very shallow.

What do you dislike about the product?
The biggest pain point with Miro for me is the Text box component. I have to always fight it to get it to work. Resizing is not easy, and changes the font size of the box by default. And the lack of markdown support makes formatting any block of text very manual. Text is a large part of diagramming so it'd be great to see an improvement on this component.
A second pain point is that the set of icons that are available out of the box are very limited and basic. I can get more via adding integrations, but that process is not seamless in my opinion - I haven't been able to truly get it to work and it's unclear if I add an icon pack if it adds it just for me or the whole workspace. It would be great if more icons that are commonly used are available by default, similar to how One Model does it.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As a Solutions Architect, I create architecture diagrams, process flow diagrams, and lifecycle diagrams routinely. These need to be collaborated on internally and also shared externally to customers. A tool like Miro is critical to create these diagrams, and collaborating and sharing these is made possible with Miro's acces controls.
A powerful, but sometimes overwhelming tool
What do you like best about the product?
I've been using Miro for a while and it's definitely a solid tool for collaboration. It’s super versatile, with lots of templates, easy integration with other software, and a simple interface. It’s great for brainstorming and team projects, especially for remote teams since everyone can work on the board at the same time.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can be a bit overwhelming at first with all its features, and the free version is quite limited.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro has been super helpful for me in tackling remote collaboration. I’ve used it for mind maps, project planning, and even building ER schemas. It’s great for working with colleagues in real-time, letting us organize ideas, share feedback, and keep everything on track. It’s definitely made team projects smoother and saved a lot of time.
Easy collaboration for remote teams
What do you like best about the product?
As a designer who loves to use a whiteboard to think and process ideas, Miro has been excellent. While working with my remote team, I will regularly spin up a new Miro board to start sketching out designs, drawing up the user workflows, organizing research insights, and more. We keep our whole org chart in a Miro, so it's easy for everyone to access and understand the shape of the org. Over the holidays, we created some templates so we could use Miro to play board games virtually, and it was so fun! Honestly, I wouldn't get through the week without it.
What do you dislike about the product?
Miro can be fickle when it comes to user permissions. When anyone creates a new board for a group, we always have to ask everyone "Do you all have access?" If they don't, it can be a pain to track down the right place to invite users to edit the board. I wish they would use a simpler permissions system similar to Google Drive, where you can just look up anyone in your org by name and add them directly to the board. No need to go find the list of people in the project and add them to it by their email address.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
- Analyzing user research insights and customer feedback. Miro serves as a great place to create affinity maps and see what themes emerge. It feels a lot more natural to move things around as opposed to working in spreadsheets
- Customer journey maps. Whenever we have a big journey map, the easiest place to create it is in Miro. Mutliple people across departments can easily view and edit, so it always stays up to date and relevant. And there is no constraint on how big the map can get, because people can always pan around and zoom in on details
- Simple whiteboard. The most common use case we have is to just pull up an empty board and start putting ideas on it. They may start as small as a few sticky notes to represent the phases of a user workflow, but they will regularly grow to include all sorts of details. The open-ended nature of a whiteboard makes it easy for the mind to explore

An excellent tool for collaboration and project progress tracking
What do you like best about the product?
We use Miro to establish schedules, keep a record of progress on projects, and collaborate on presentations
What do you dislike about the product?
Drawing in Miro is clunky and could be made more useful for scale drawing (see Morpholio Trace for example)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro creates a virtual pin up space that is accessible at all times and from diverse locations. It allows us to archive documents, photos, drawings and progress from earlier in the project - as well as organize presentations for the present.
Director - Strategy
What do you like best about the product?
I have been a user of Miro for over 1 0 years - I have used Miro on multiple projects and have used a lot of templates that you have. I like Miro because of
1. Ability to share the document with the client with ease and also collaborate with them very easily.
2. Ease of use - We can create mindmaps, process documents, conduct workshops, etc. the capability and the ease of use sets Miro apart
3.Number of users - Its ability for a number of collaborators to work on a common issue

What do you dislike about the product?
From a corporation perspective - MIro is an external application and sensitive data can be moved out of the coroporate network since the application can be accessed from a personal laptop or personal account.
Ability to print to pdf - I recently had a large project and it was very hard to print it off into a pdf to share with the client. May be I have the free license and I assume that the ability will be enhanced with a subscription service.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ease of use, provides a collaborative space with proven data security standards, and mind mapping techniques - are the top benefits I am reaping from MIro.
The perfect canvas for team work, you can adapt it to all purposes
What do you like best about the product?
Miro is very complete regarding how much flexibility it allows you to use. It provides you with many tools that you can adapt to your workflow as you please. It's perfect for team brainstorming ideas or even work sharing with clients.
What do you dislike about the product?
The snap grid system is very helpful but can be improved. I sometimes struggle to align elements when they are not the same size (e.g., text with images, shapes with text, etc.).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
sync feauture of Miro - mirroring boards to others is very useful for our workflow - con right now is that the copied board can only be visible to users that are invited to the mother-canvas
The best app in market for mindmapping
What do you like best about the product?
I've been using Miro since a couple of years and I can definitely say it's the best tool on the market for complex mindmaps, as it lets you re-scale the map without any loss and maintaining proportions. I compared it to all the available tools on the market and was the winner, thanks Miro team for doing such an amazing job on this product. It's also one of the most intuitive products and the best of all, is that you can translate an entire board and expand your mindmaps with the help of the new AI features!
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing comes to my mind. Some years ago it went slow for huge boards, but meybe that was already solved.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use it as my go-to tool when talking about online whiteboards, and I can say I'm a whiteboard lover, I think it's the best way for collaborating in remote work. I have different Product Management tools, listed as a backup file, but at some point of the past I used it with the team I was working with, as the company has the license. If I had to choose, I would go definitely with Miro but it's true that Figma has a lot of negotiation power now that they have Figjam, that is also pretty good and I would assume it's cheaper than Miro if you buy the pack + Figjam.
On my personal life I also use it for complex mindmaps, and I¡m really happy to say it's the only tool on the market that helped me doing what I needed.
