Miro as team collaboration tool
What do you like best about the product?
When Covid started and we could not travel to work on research, it provided the opportunity for our team to work in live collaboration on research analysis and design
What do you dislike about the product?
The tool has improved over the past 2 years, but it used to be clunky and hard to understand. Our company has a limited license or there is a limit of users when we collaborate.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I can also use it to share product flows and create presentation boards for product assessments to share with the team.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Take some time to understand all Miro offers and practice in advance how to use it. It is a great tool for real-time team collaborations.
Just LOVE Miro
What do you like best about the product?
I have used Miro for simple process schematics, complex user journey sequence mapping, and even (as a guest) group training. I love that it's so easy to organize information visually. They also have templates, so you don't have to start from a blank slate. My whole team finds it nicer to reference information this way than in the old linear document form.
What do you dislike about the product?
It requires a little practice to make stunning-looking boards, but it is intuitive and worth it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Team sharing, storing of process information, and mapping user journeys. I'd be despondent if I couldn't use Miro anymore.
Awesome tool! I use Miro to map my funnels and build my landing pages mockups
What do you like best about the product?
The "infinite" white board and the fact that you can always use a bigger space if you need. I used to work on powerpoint/Google slide before but my problem was always the same: I was limited by the space of the slides
I also like the fact that when you "paste" elements, they appear where your mouse is!

What do you dislike about the product?
There is no "line" element!!!! Just arrows, it's so frustrating becauseI could use some lines when designing my landing pages on Miro. Also, I find it really inconvenient not to be able to easily select several elements with the mouse only => having to click on each one + maintain CTRL is a bit time consuming when you have 100 elements to select
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It allows me to have only 1 work space for all my needs: marketing funnels, facebook ads campaigns plan, landing pages mockups
Recommendations to others considering the product:
TRY IT OUT. Seriously, the free version already allows you to gain so much time!!
Great experience with Miro
What do you like best about the product?
I like the option to create different boards and to share them with different people. I also like the combination of creativity and organization tools that Miro boards allow. It creates a great space to work and collaborate with others. While other boards allow some of these options, the Miro is the only platform that I found that combines all of these useful tools.
What do you dislike about the product?
I do not like it when Miro has technical difficulties and doesn't load. It is not happening a lot, but it might be a big problem when it happens just before you are going to work with others and collaborate on this platform. For example, it might happen just when you are starting a workshop or a meeting that you are going to facilitate. I always have a backup plan, but when you worked hard on a workshop or a presentation, you really want to use it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Miro boards for mapping and planning my strategies, brainstorming ideas, and developing workshops and materials. I also use Miro to facilitate workshops and to collaborate and work with others. Another use is to work with clients and to provide them a wide picture of different materials and opportunities. It's also a great place to store workshop materials and things that I want to come back to and to continue building or working on later.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Miro is a great platform to work with!
Great Collaboration Tool
What do you like best about the product?
There's a lot to love about Miro. What I like best is the variety of options for tools, formats, and especially the templates based on specific methodologies. It's also easy to organize the canvas so that you can group it in any way your work requires, as well as exporting for those that prefer a non-digital format.
What do you dislike about the product?
What I dislike are all the things I like! Working on a whiteboard takes effort and discipline to organize thoughts, activities, and conversations. But it's so good for me to use it as it helps me stay disciplined in my approach.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're a fully remote team; working in a digital environment is an everyday experience for us. However, we still need collaborative environments where we can ideate and creatively problem solve. Miro has enabled this work.
Miro - one of our primary day to day tools enabling collaboration in this new virtual world.
What do you like best about the product?
Each Miro board provides a virtual canvas that is shared in real-time amongst associates. The ability for all users to use the board at the same time, everyone can visually see what each other is creating and editing makes it feel like all participants of a meeting are in the same physical space when in fact we are not.
The canvas allows almost anything to be uploaded and provides various tools and app integration. For example, want to mind map? There is a tool for that. Want a chart? there is a tool for that.. want to include a picture? There is integration with Google images..
Miro also provides prebuilt templates that allow you to create a board with content to get you productive faster. Need to have a retrospective? There is a template for that, you can even create your own template if needed.
I highly recommend giving Miro a try the next time you need to collaborate, you will quickly become dependent.

What do you dislike about the product?
We have had challenges with very large Miro boards specific to performance and loading times. If we do encounter issues related to performance, Miro is always very responsive and is consistently improving performance as they go.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As our team continues to expand globally having a collaboration tool like Miro allows for improved communication between locations and associates. It enables the UX team to collaborate with other groups within Cerner such as strategy and development. This collaboration reduces overhead (elimination of meetings while making required meetings more productive) while increasing speed and flexibility in deliverables by having a single medium for design conversations. This provides Designers, Product/Business Analysts, and Developers with the ability to review a complete context of the UX design without the need to review many individual documents.
Amazing resource for UCD and UX research work
What do you like best about the product?
Miro has made virtual workshops AMAZING! Has been absolutely crucial for making remote, collaborative research feasible. The templates have also helped our team learn and grow and expand how we present data (whether it's research or planning or strategy). MIRO has become a CRITICAL part of our daily work as a product team and has been especially useful to keeping lots of disparate data in one place.
What do you dislike about the product?
Organization (project page) is not ideal. It makes it hard to find/re-find boards when collaborating with other team members. I think related is the sharing functionality isn't super easy to get right. Almost every day our team is like, "eek I can't find that board," I know it's on us to implement some kind of organization, but it is hard to keep track of the permissions and folder structure.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are synthesizing and hosting workshops/ideation in a remote setting. We also do a LOT of planning using MIRO (roadmapping, project-specific planning). We have project boards that have our research plan, our designs, feedback on designs, presentations to stakeholders all in one place-- It's been a huge time-saver in that respect.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
There is a learning curve for using the tool day-to-day and for some people this visual mapping comes super naturally and less so for others. It probably would have benefitted our team to have a session with a MIRO rep when first implementing or a training of some kind.
Awesome tool for remote collaboration, brainstorming and prototyping.
What do you like best about the product?
The best of Miro is its ease of customization and power to quickly get the points across, working collaboratively with product folks and stakeholders. Users can join boards and projects together and draft requirements, wireframes, and more.
I use it a lot for wireframing, quick brainstorming, and even research tracking and documenting.

What do you dislike about the product?
It might be somewhat overwhelming to new users as it has many interesting features, that are at times not really needed to be available to everyone.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Remote collaboration, requirement gathering, workshop facilitation. It helps with being aligned with product, business and desgin. During remote-working times, there's much you could do using other tools, but there's so much more you can do while using Miro.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use it and learn; it's great to start with a simple project but can also be tackled with a way more extensive project. Miro can accommodate huge amounts of data within multiple or single board
Best tool for remote working and collaboration!
What do you like best about the product?
Allows for guest collaboration, so people are more accepting of using the new tool. It is very intuative so people that are not used to working in tools like this seem to pick it up pretty quickly. For me it feels like a smooth transition from all the design software I have experience with.
What do you dislike about the product?
Admins are not able to delete test boards from each new user added. I have not seen a way to transfer ownership of the boards as an admin without deleting the user.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Working in agile teams whiteboards and sticky notes are a key part of several meetings. Miro allows for that even with everyone working remotely. It also has made design review sessions easier because I can import artboards from Sketch that we can mark on top of.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The cost is well worth the time you gain in meeting efficiency.
Miro is the tool which gives more spatial and geographical vision to words and ideas
What do you like best about the product?
As a copywriter, I tended to see space with a vertical scrolling view: Miro has subverted this perspective and offered me a horizontal, more spatial view. Miro helps me the most in the brainstorming process.
Miro as a tool allowed me to have a more spatial and geographical vision of words and ideas, to expand the edges of thought, to make them more elastic. And again: I have noticed a more organic and compact process and, last but not least, I was able to adopt card sorting to apply it to my creative approach.
Card sorting is a practical methodology for sorting thoughts and information. Usually conceived as a collective practice, it can be embraced in copywriting projects to create a conceptual framework and perimeter within which narrative strands and ideas for brainstorming move. And which, above all, counterbalances the hyper-creative and gut thrusts that namings and payoffs (two of my primary services as a copywriter) can have.

What do you dislike about the product?
The impossibility to export it in other formats than pdf or cvs
The cards/slides order is sometimes a little bit messy above all if you're planning to do a keynote or an official presentation. Miro may sometimes take too much resource of my computer RAM and will drag my computer to run slowly.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Remote team organizing has a better and more proactive flow, above all now that we need to work remotely from home. Miro has all the tools we need to collaborate on tasks and projects and work in real-time settings. I am thrilled to adopt this software as part of my work system.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Miro also is an excellent additional software whenever we have an online meeting and let everyone draw to the whiteboard and sharing ideas to improve the meeting process visually.
