Most fun and expansive whiteboard I know thus far.
What do you like best about the product?
UXUI and templates given. Colorful & motivating
What do you dislike about the product?
Tips and tricks unknown and shortcuts.
The framing thing as well gets confusing. Sometimes moving objects around could be hard.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
WFH collaboration is more interesting. My level of braindump can be visualized much better :P I'm really all over the place.
Some teams enjoy it. I think the benefits in a way is not just using Miro, but looking at the templates as inspiration for what I can carry out in my meetings.

It may be worth taking time to explore, which is something I wished I had done more.

The beauty of a blank canvas
What do you like best about the product?
I love that Miro has a bucketload of templates which you can use ... but even more I love that Miro is a blank canvas that lets you create whatever you want in whatever way you want. From event programs, to look books, flow charts and marketing plans ... Miro can be whatever I need it to be.
What do you dislike about the product?
There really isnt anything I don't like about Miro. It does what I need, when I need. I really can't imagine not using the product.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I love that Miro works for all types of brains. From the wordy to the visual, we can adapt Miro to suit our needs. It really is that simple.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Just do it. Give it a go. It won't disappoint.
Beautiful and practical
What do you like best about the product?
It's easier than any mind mapping software. so much flexibility. A huge amount of tools to design, create, collaborate
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes you can get lost in your own mess. Tools take a bit to learn but not terrible for digital natives
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Working through big ideas that don't fit well on a doc
I use it for almost everything
What do you like best about the product?
I love that the board has infinite space and template options to create anything you want
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there were a better timeline/calendar integration or option for scheduling tasks as a team
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're doing remote workshops, collecting research and sharing findings, writing workflow manuals, mapping out processes, and planning. Just about everything.
Simply indispensable
What do you like best about the product?
Whether I'm collaborating in realtime with colleagues or working solo, it is my go-to tool when I need to think critically through a problem.
The amount of templates are staggering and are super-useful to hit the ground running right away and they're adding to them all the time.
Most importantly though, the tool is incredibly easy to use and for a product that requires an internet connection, I'm impressed as it really feels like you're using an offline tool even when collaborating with others remotely!

What do you dislike about the product?
The app can be a little flaky at times, but it's improving. What's really encouraging though is how frequently the product is updated. The folks at Miro are clearly listening to and learning from their users.
I'd also like to see more choices of shapes (eg. not many arrow types) though I can understand them wanting to avoid turning the product into bloat-ware, it's a tradeoff.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I've solved a productivity problem and improved my written communication too as a result. I'm not anti-powerpoint, but with Miro I'm only restricted by my creativity. The tool lets me get on with what I need to do. I've previously always reverted to pen and paper or a whiteboard to think. Miro is the first tool where I haven't done that.
Further, there's nothing more empowering than a big blank canvas and a bunch of tools to do whatever it is that you need to do.

Couldn't recommend it enough
What do you like best about the product?
It's very rare that a tool can do many things well, and I can confidently say that MIRO's this tool for me, my team, and colleagues. It's great for distributed team collaboration, mind-mapping, all activities needed for design thinking, prioritisation, workshops, and the list goes on. It's a blank canvas and it allows me to express my ideas so easily. The help me articles, customer support, and people I engage with from the company are always so helpful.
What do you dislike about the product?
I worked at an enterprise bank and it would be great to have enough controls or information regarding where the information/data is stored for our security partners to fully allow our teams to be onboarded in an enterprise level.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Whole product development cycle. I've realized it's great to share them with people so we can contribute to solutions/approaches asynchronously.
Great for both remote teams and for ad-hoc workshops
What do you like best about the product?
Smooth and snappy interface, especially when using the native app (I'm on a Mac). Just the small things as the keyboard shortcuts to switch between tools, or the inline help to align and distribute objects, allows for swift editing.
Zooming in and out and navigating the board is also significantly smoother than competing solutions. Also, when inviting external users to an ad-hoc workshop, there's no obtrusive on-boarding needed. Most users get the concept without any instructions, and Miro does a great job adapting navigation automatically to the user's device.

What do you dislike about the product?
Plans and pricing can be confusing at times. It isn't always clear which plan suits different use cases.
One limitation when you invite external user to an ad-hoc workshop is that they can't name themselves. When working together they'll see each others cursors but not who's who.
The one detail within the tool itself that I find most annoying is when you're working with locked objects. If I as a host of a workshop draw a filled shape and then lock it, participants can still 'focus' the object by clicking on it. This breaks the expected behavior "double clicking anywhere on the canvas will create a sticky-note".

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm using Miro both for internal projects togehter with colleagues as well as external clients in different teams. Since the boards are so "big", I usually fit one project per board. This makes it easy to track the progress in the project, or revisit your previous steps to find new ideas.
Essential Work Tool for Early Product Thinking
What do you like best about the product?
My 100% remote team struggled for a long time to find a collaborative whiteboarding/brainstorming tool. Then we found Miro, and it was quickly adopted across the whole team -- engineering, product, design, customer success, & business development. It's easy to use for freeform brainstorming, and its collaborative features are fantastic. I like how we can mix text, images, shapes, and free-form drawings. Overall it's a great tool
What do you dislike about the product?
Very large boards can be difficult to understand and digest. Other than that, it's a wonderful tool
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We primarily use Miro for collaborative whiteboarding & brainstorming, though individuals often use it for early ideation and mapping of complex ideas. In our work, we often collaborate with subject matter experts in the field of building design, and we use Miro to capture learnings from them as well
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Personally, I find it easier to use Miro with a dedicated mouse and a large external screen instead of a laptop trackpad
Far exceeded my expectations
What do you like best about the product?
Our team has tried many different interactive platforms for collaboration but Miro's seemingly infinite workspace has really been transformative for us as a team. In addition, I have found Miro to be incredibly useful for my own mindmapping, brainstorming, and 'tidbit' collecting. For the most part, if you need something, there is a template for it, but the golden ticket is that you always have a completely blank canvas to create something from scratch if need be.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have had some issues with losing content through "blips". Needing to backup to a local drive is a bit of a challenge and not something intuitive given that the interaction is cloud-based. This has only resulted in a major issue once when I lost an entire board, but I have had other instances as well - most recently when a colleague accidentally deleted a section of a board we were collaborating on and then was unable to undo the action.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Capturing those wild thought patterns that occur when trying to problem-solve or when you hit a creative streak. It is so easy to lose some of the more tangential ideas that may not be relevant today but could be useful to jot down for later. Having everything in one location in miro is easier to track back to than a traditional journal. It also has really helped our team work collaboratively in a virtual environment. We also work globally and have worked through a meeting and then shared the miro board with colleagues in other timezones to comment on/continue adding to during their workday.
The team tool we didn’t know we missed
What do you like best about the product?
First tried put Miro 4 months ago - and also had my team come play with it. Now it's our go-to software for almost anything - projects, workshops, assessments, research, innovation, action plans, charity projects and even birthdays ;) It is your unlimited pinboard that helps structure complexity collaboratively, invite creativity, enable flexible collaboration, also non syncronous, and captures the process without much further work.
What do you dislike about the product?
It almost allows for any kind of file to be copy-pasted on to the board However for videos we need to upload them to youtube first to be able to bring them into miro. But hey it's very rare that you have a piece of software like this that you just can't do without in a very short time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It allows us to have everything around a project on one place that we can all access. Also it helps bring real value to online workshops to have this as the collaborative platform when meeting on zoom or in teams. We just get a lot more done. And it's all captured instantly.
