Spectacular Remote Work Opportunities
What do you like best about the product?
I love being able to organize our ideas together live. It has helped us so much throughout the pandemic and increased our productivity. It was so useful that I proposed it to my workplace for use in that context and we now use it and love it.
What do you dislike about the product?
My biggest issue with miro is that it causes my computer to lag pretty intensely. This is especially a problem if we have a lot of data on our board or if there are a lot of people on the board at once. It sometimes gets to the point where I have to reload the webpage multiple times or sometimes wait for people in my group to stop moving things around so much.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We do a lot of mind mapping and compile a lot of our research notes in miro. We use miro for primarily research purposes but it also can be a great tool for note-taking or for brainstorming sessions.
The go-to collaboration tool for product teams
What do you like best about the product?
Miro tends to be the perfect meeting place outside of specialized tools. For example, Figma is a design tool that also has some shared/collaborative features, but it doesn't address the broader audience of a team like Miro does. I specifically like pre-built shapes such as sticky-notes for making quick notes in group workshops and the freedom of an infinite canvas to move and organize everything.
What do you dislike about the product?
Although individual notes are often self-contained, when there's a singular block of text such as a research summary, it's not possible to collaboratively type/edit in the same text box at the same time. It's not too bad to take turns contributing to the block of text or create separate ones and combine them later, but I think an ideal tool would have some collaborative editing like a google doc.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Product development lifecycle stuff:
User research notes, synthesizing information, brainstorms, and workshops to generate ideas from several people, and then converging again to consolidate strong ideas.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
I often recommend that people explore the features such as following another person's view while they're sharing in a meeting (higher resolution than screen share) and also get to know the comments feature and drawing connection lines from object to object. These few things tend to increase what you get out of it.
Improve your colaboration work online!
What do you like best about the product?
It has many different templates for various cases of use
Also, i love how you can download anything you create as a PDF

What do you dislike about the product?
It is not very easy to use for some people in my team (not my particular case)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It allows us to collaborate simultaneously in any project we are in as a team (brainstorming, customer journey design, etc.)
Recommendations to others considering the product:
To search and use every template Miro gives to you

What do you like best about the product?
I like the collaborative work environment. Also the UI is really nice and as a user it is possible to easily navigate even tough its a first time.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dont have a nice experience with education account since it is not always me who creates the board, joining other friends is a bit tricky. I would prefer to have the same boards on my profile as well.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am using miro a lot for brain storming and quick maps. Its very handy for user journeys and especially information architectures.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
So far I introduced miro to my friends since they are from different professions and most of them ended up really liking it.
An extremely useful tool. It's made my job easier to deliver interactive training & is user friendly
What do you like best about the product?
User friendly
Great variety in tools and settings used - similar to Microsoft word where you can change text font size etc, whereas other programs I've used doesn't have as much variety
Easy for teams to work on projects and create mind maps or idea boards.
I use Miro for interactive sessions, which has been my trainees' favourite part of the webinar/session.

What do you dislike about the product?
Participants have to sign up to use the white baord - quite time consuming and would be great if there was a non - user section or element where some tasks could be created without someone having to sign up.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Interactive workshop group sessions are great
Everyone Ive spoken to loves it
We are solving group mind maps of large projects that have different elements to them.
Miro has been great for project work

If you are looking at working collaboratively, have interactive webinars or sessions to mind map, Miro is a great tool that works in many different work scenarios.
Best Brainstorming and Organization Platform Out There
What do you like best about the product?
I love the flexibility of the tool. If you need a mind map, you can mind map. If you need to sticky-note brainstorm in bulk digitally, you can do that. If you need to combine both and work with a remote team to get work done, it's indispensable!
What do you dislike about the product?
You can't share a link to a board and have anonymous people collaborate or view it like on Google Docs. I was running a workshop and used it for the first time and didn't realize it required people to sign up in order to contribute. It really slowed down the energy of the workshop.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Content strategies, organization restructures, content planning, business development. So many things. It's replaced my whiteboard completely, even though I have a physical one. I love that you can have an ongoing board no kids can mess up or colleagues erase so they can use it for their next meeting. It allows ideas to breathe and be refined/built over time.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try it out for free to see if your team likes it and will adopt it. You can get a ton of use and if you find you keep running into features you need, it's well worth the price.
A fantastic product for sharing idea, collaboration, and for presenting solutions
What do you like best about the product?
I love the number of templates Miro offers. I've been able to articulate my thoughts clearly, and as a result, I've had many people request access to Miro for their use.
What do you dislike about the product?
While I've tried to find something to say that I disliked, there's nothing I can think of for improvement at this time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I've been using Miro for mind mapping, collaborating with teams for governance, articulating what my department does, and sharing strategic ideas.
Miro pushed our in-house collaboration to the next level
What do you like best about the product?
We are working remotely nowadays, also with a lot of teams that are spread across different countries, and the usage of Miro helped us to push our "in-house" collaboration, but also working with external stakeholders, to the next level. It simply is a fantastic tool to visualize what needs tangibility and facilitates all sorts of workshops.
More than a year ago, we (UX team) started to champion the usage of Miro, and now the whole company has adapted to this workflow. We love to plan our roadmaps in it. Running effective workshops of any kind is a breeze (also thanks to the great range of templates). There are many use cases for our daily business of the UX team that are perfectly covered in Miro. I wouldn't want to miss Miro in my daily routine anymore.

What do you dislike about the product?
As we tend to work with many different Miro boards, an easier method to switch and search for those boards would be great. Probably even adding tags or integrations for the Atlassian suite would help a lot (don't know if those already exist).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The ability to have hands-on meetings in a remote working culture is great. Every participant has an easy way to participate and it doesn't take a lot of skill to use the tool!
The only tool I know for true collaboration among virtual teams
What do you like best about the product?
I love that Miro gets everyone in your group involved. My team likes to brainstorm by assigning each person a colour of sticky. We set the timer, turn up the music, and everyone writes down their ideas in their own space. When we finish, we combine all the stickies. It's a safe and relaxed way for all team members to have their voices heard. And it's fantastic that there is a template for everything you can imagine.
What do you dislike about the product?
Initially, there is a learning curve. Lots of commands to learn to be proficient and confident leading a session. But for general use, anyone can pick it up the first time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We recently started using the ice-breaker templates to spice up our weekly Happy Hour.
The product is what we had been waiting for years!
What do you like best about the product?
An incredible product for collaborative brainstorming, ideation, and conceptualization of anything you can imagine!
What do you dislike about the product?
There is no possibility to attach additional files (especially images) to the sticky cards, but I think this feature will be added in the future.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
