Almost mandatory for remote collaboration

  • May 05, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The giant whiteboard with many frames is great for visualizing and organizing ideas. The ability to easily invite anybody to collaborate. Many templates with a qualitative explanation about how to use them. Fool toolbox to animate workshops (timer, voting, présentation mode...)
What do you dislike about the product?
Some details are missing to make the boards visual, and it's sometimes challenging to find the action you are searching for
Impossible to have different alignment in the same text field. Right-click could be usefull
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The ability to collaborate remotely as we used to do with a whiteboard at the office.
Share analyze draw, fast diagram, fast design, vote ... so we save lot of time

Amazing space to get stuff done

  • May 05, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like how endless it is, and you can keep going and going with canvas after canvas and send links to a particular canvas. It's super intuitive too. Canvases and features are essential and valuable, especially the Post and flow charts. What I dislike about it is the arrows when you join two boxes together, the arrow is too thin to see, and you should be able to change the thickness of it.
What do you dislike about the product?
I mentioned the arrows above and changing thickness. Another minor annoying thing that I would love a fix for is if you import ten images, and then you want to frame them (create a frame feature) you have to do it individually. So now what you have is the ability to place thirty or forty jpgs onto a single canvas and then outline them or frame them some way. This is currently not how it's achieved though.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Given the fact that we operate our teams and work in a pandemic it has been an essential space for me to collect my thoughts and progress on a project. The feature that most benefits me is that Miro is one place to keep track of everything. This includes research like notes and things people say, the process of the design, capturing the collaborative comments from others on the team, comments essential to building good products and make team building more inclusive whilst working remotely.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
So to advise anyone to use Miro, I would ask What do I need it for? Will others use it? Will it be adopted into the team as an essential tool for the team and the customer? Will everyone make use of it? I think that it is a valuable tool for the type of projects that I work on and that you probably would find great value in it too.

There's so much it can do-takes time to appreciate

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Spend some time experimenting--lots of great templates and uses for this tool!

The perfect tool for a really SMART working

  • May 05, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The feature I like the most about Miro is the ability to create boards like pieces of paper and share them instantly with all my colleagues.
In a scattered world dependent on smart-working, I find very much value in share notes with my team in a creative space such as a Miro board.
The creativity is the second aspect I like the most in Miro: there is virtually no impossible thing in Miro, thanks to the choice of tools.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are only a few things that I dislike: in particular they mostly regard UX.
For examples, adapting the text to a sticky note is usually not very simple, and I generally incline for square shapes.
Also, locking contents and frames is sometime tricky, expecially when many users work on the same board, leading to minor inconveniences when people accidentally move frames.
Another feature that is sometimes a little annoying, is when I enter a board and it tells me all the changes that my team has done: after that I must click on every changed content to remove the notification.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I must share information with my colleagues, for which I usually would need paper (schemas, graphs, brainstorming, etc.), and I cannot simply use shared documents.
Also, I may need to use some template in order to achieve easier and quicker some result.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Miro is very simple and helpful: after months of smart working without a tool such that, where productivity dropped due to difficulty in communication, we finally had a place where communicating easily.

The most intuitive online whiteboarding tool

  • May 05, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
We're a creative company that has been using Miro for over a year now. Whereas in the past we might have filled a "war room" with Post-Its, whiteboard sessions, and printouts, now we are able to capture and collaborate all our work in one place. The templates are super helpful from respected sources. Most importantly, we've been able to get all our team members working in one place, including external clients and partners. We won't be going back to a messy "war room" after this!

We've tried other whiteboard tools like Mural, but Miro has a more intuitive interface and better feature set.
What do you dislike about the product?
We use the boards so heavily, sometimes if we copy paste many high-res images and have many people (dozens) on at once, it can get a bit laggy... but we're power-users, so that's an extreme situation.

Also, not a dislike, but a feature request - it would be useful to have multiple options to export or archive the boards, ie. one page per frame, or, the entire board as a single PDF, or other options... As we use these boards routinely, we will need a way to share and archive them in our company file management (outside of the Miro platform).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are a tech consultancy, and so we use the boards to organize projects, plan tasks, brainstorm ideas, host workshops with clients, capture research findings, and present our recommendations. We practically live on Miro!

Perfect for people who have to deal with lots of ambiguity in their work

  • May 05, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like how I can store everything on just a single page. I have been using this product for 6 months now, and I would have made 1000 mind maps. Still, miro makes it so easy to search for something specific. I can connect my ideas very seamlessly by connecting mindmaps. I like this product so much that I have started using it in my personal work. Great job Miro
What do you dislike about the product?
There's is not enough. But I would like if Miro can introduce a back-button functionality in search. This really helps when I want to put two or more objects side by side.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
To put it simply, I can put all my ideas in one place. Google docs etc. are great for text storage. But Miro allows me to do more than that in a very easy manner.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try it out, it's great for unstructured storage of data and brainstorming.

great for process facilitators

  • May 05, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Having spent a lot of time in front of a whiteboard with teams of people I've found Miro to be the best substitute for when you can have people in the same room together. Like with anything new it takes a bit of work to get people comfortable and confident to express themselves but once the ice is broken Miro helps open up creativity and dialogue.
What do you dislike about the product?
The pricing. The cost is high. The free version is great but lacks video conferencing so you need to be ready to be quite hands-on and to have a patient and tech literate team.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ideation and Consensus based decision making.

A very useful cooperation tool

  • May 05, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Very interactive, easy to use even for people that are not tech savy. Allows multiple people to share ideas instantly.
What do you dislike about the product?
A more complex boards are sometimes hard to lock and people move elements as they try to contribute (especiallly those not familiar with miro).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Saves time, as people can contribute ideas in one place and work independently at the same time, on the same board.

"Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic." (Clarke's third law)

  • May 05, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Miro is a tool that genuinely feels like magic at times. I was addicted to whiteboards in team rooms, and the pandemic lockdown put a terrible strain on me as a project leader. Working with an international team on a brand new project that required a lot of conversation and analysis was already challenging. All scattered in different places made the task impossible.

Miro was a lifesaver, the only tool that allowed me a real-time, totally destructured collaboration as I was on a whiteboard. Plus, it's permanent. Plus, it's boundless. Plus, it has terribly advanced features. Plus, it's evolving to a pace I cant' bear with.

Soon Miro became my sole tool for a lot of different activities, from modeling the interface wireframes of the application we are building, to share thoughts with the team, to arrange mindmaps... we are now using it far and wide for strategic workshops, analysis, modeling and whatever.

As a web-developer, I'm so impressed by the technical quality, performance, UI design and ergonomics of Miro that I can't get how can it be working so well.
What do you dislike about the product?
Pricing model. It's a bit difficult to get and I think it can be better thought out to support dynamic, frequently changing business teams.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I got back the ability to work as in the same room, even remotely.
I also got additional, unexpected benefits like persistence of information, endless whiteboard real estate, convenient side-tools (timers, voting, etc).

Miro allowed me to got rid of many different tools I needed to achieve my goals. Now everything is in one place.

My Go-to for everything!

  • May 05, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The whole UX of the app is brilliant and feels carefully designed, minimalistic... It feels like an environment you would like to spend time in! (Which I do!;-) )

Integrations and templates make it so much more into a central application within my workflows.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the facilitation options should have an option to be collapsed to make focused space, when not needed.

Sharing options: no option in between editing & viewing (I'd love to offer certain click ability yet no editing rights)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
1) Second Brain - All my ideas go into Miro, including their relations; brainstorming, associations, concepts, etc.

2) Collaboration - Working together remotely on all projects (incl Design Sprints), voting, commenting, etc.

3) Client-Interface - We use Miro as a permanent Client interface (overview of the projects, assets, brainstorming, moodboards, educational)

4) Library - All my e-/audiobooks go onto a Miro board so I could peruse through them instead of having to go through a list in Dropbox. Easy to share with people as well.
