Fast start with Miro

  • May 26, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Miro is an incredibly productive tool. It is intuitive, easy to use, and comes with a broad range of adaptable templates along with Icon sets. Furthermore, Miro provides an excellent and growing set of good training material. The diagramming component is one of the easiest that I have ever used. The result is that I was able to put Miro to productive use within a couple of days.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's hard to find anything to dislike. One suggestion would be to modify the way in which frames are bounded so that content that is external to the defined context does not appear in presentations. But this is a minor gripe and it easy to work around it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro is an excellent platform for collecting thoughts, sharing them, and developing them in collaboration with colleagues. It is easy to jot down and reorganize thoughts on the broad canvases which provide a stored record. Furthermore, it does a good job of generating PDFs that can be sent out as presentations.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Start by doing the tutorial, use it for a few minutes each day, and explore the templates. Be bold and use it on a real project.

Can't think of myself working in a team without collaborating in Miro

  • May 26, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Miro gave us the ability to map our thoughts intrenally and collaborate with peers using boards. It is extraordinary how we implement Miro boards collaborating with clients trying to solve real life scenario and provide solutions to their business needs. I would never expect see my clients leaving comments helping our project delivery process. Allowing clients to participate through the service design process help us get valuable insights and get a more solid brief. Getting access to tribal knowledge through Miroverse give an amazing opportunity to learn from Miro experts and other professional on a huge variety of use cases.
What do you dislike about the product?
Up until now I haven't come across to any features or workflows I don't find helpful. However I'd say that it will take sometime for someone in your team who is not a creative spirit or familiar with remote collaboration to ramp up quickly and start using more advanced features in Miro. Understanding full capacity of features and use cases requires effort and a significant time spent within the platform.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
-Service blueprinting & prototyping
-Service design
-Remote teams collaboration
-Remote collaboration with clients
-Brainstorming and ideas mapping
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I'd advise watching youtube videos on how to use Miro and definitely follow the Miro Experts and Miro community!

There is no online board like miro

  • May 26, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I can use Miro as a work board, as a board for creating mobile application (my side project), as a personal notebook - so many different tools are applicable in different situations.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would love to use my pen to draw on board. now it works awful, so I use Microsoft Onenote/
I also would like to have an easier navigation tool than making a text with links; I also need to find this text on board :)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Shared working space. I design an app (side project), design a technical experiment, trying to do a system engineering analysis (I wonder now if there is an OPM diagram instrument in Miro, I might not have seen it) , thinking about putting personal staff in Miro (need a pen-writing for this :( )
Recommendations to others considering the product:
mind the switch between a 'hand' and a 'cursor'.

Miro helps a lot in our everyday research process, especially when working remotely!

  • May 26, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
We love how Miro allows us to collaborate in real-time and communicate our ideas among the team and to our clients in visually appealing way! And it's so intuitive - the learning curve for new users among our team was short. An option to videocall each other within a specific board is awesome!
What do you dislike about the product?
One thing that is lacking - an option to freeze elements, like an Excel "Freeze row/column". Some research stages result in big tables (for example User Journey Map), which are really hard to overview without freeze column option. That would be helpful for timeline tables as well.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro helps visually organize information, and it's super easy to make a mind map. We also create mood boards, a screen map, and other deliverables in Miro. It's helpful how easy aligning and changing elements are so that we can create neat deliverables quickly. Google docs integration also helps, when we are adding a link to some external documents.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I recommend to try and see how it fits in your daily work routine. It's a highly versatile tool!

Amazing product for collaborative effort in this pandemic

  • May 26, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love the whole idea of a digital soft board where you can collaborate with fellow creatives to realise your ideas. The product allows a vast pool of information to be in the user's vision. Due to this, dots can be connected seamlessly and new ideas can be compared with ease to come up with the best results possible.
What do you dislike about the product?
I sort of hate that the free plan has just 3 boards editable, I hoped that it could have been free for one person and then paid for collaboration.

Also sometimes, the cursor pans the board instead of selecting the elements, and vice versa also occurs. This causes a mess at times on the board, where frames and elements are moved unnecessarily.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm solving the problems of not having access to space for compiling a ton of information at a place so that I can make links, find patterns and validate the information. I am able to process information now, find gaps, and help facilitate creativity just sitting in front of my laptop instead of being in my larger studio space.

Further benefits are as follows

1) Interactive video calling

2) Stopwatch mode inbuilt into the program

3) Ability to arrange frames in a presentation mode so that you can directly show your progress to clients

4) Virtual room for asynchronous or real-time collaboration

5) Perfect product for an agile oriented organisation

6) Perfect for productive feedback sessions between cross-functional team members
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Just go through their content on their blog for any help, they also have a youtube channel for helping beginners.

Excellent Tools for Mind Maps and Brainstorming with Remote Teams

  • May 26, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's really easy to use Miro. I use it almost every day for brainstorming. We have a remote team and everyone in the team loves to use Miro when we are brainstorming.

We use it for mapping user journeys and design a lot.

I personally use it for flowcharts and mind mapping.

They also have an excellent set of apps in the App Store.
What do you dislike about the product?
Hard to think of any. I would say the tool is excellent. It was a bit expensive for us as we are a bootstrapped start-up, but once we started using it, we saw the value it has to offer and we are using it now to the fullest extent.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mindmaps/brainstorming - Extremely easy to come up with them. Very easy for the team to understand the big picture and stay on the same page.

User Journeys - Very easy to map user journeys and think around them.

Design - Very easy as a team to collaborate, share comments, and brainstorm.

Collaboration - Very easy to collaborate. Especially if it is a remote team, it's a no-brainer.

Blank space for a lot of ideas

  • May 25, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Miro has adaptable templates for your ideas and ease to use. If you want to build a roadmap or describe your thoughts attached to images, Miro will help you with many features. Also, it's easy to share and contribute with your colleagues. In fact, doesn't really matter what I use: mindmapping, prototyping or roadmap features. The best of Miro application is its resources and the possibility of create a lot of ideas.
What do you dislike about the product?
When I use Miro, I put a lot of information on my boards. That's fantastic, but could be very heavy to other users. One thing that could help with it is reducing the archive size when the user hide frames in his/her board. I use that function a ,ot on my board to load more quickly, but I believe Miro could explore this possibility using cache or antoher technical support to diminish the latency. Also, the Windows app version couldn't support downloading frames in JPEG. Whe I have to do that, I usually open my browser to download the frame. That could be fixed!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
To stay aligned with my colleagues and stakeholders, sharing ideas, roadmap, etc. When I conduct retros (in Scrum), Miro is the best option because it offers videoconferencing, dot voting, and a lot of features that help us interact. Users can navigate to all the problems lited, vote on issues that deserves more attention, and be aligned on what we could do together to improve our team.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Share Miro with all the teams you have in your company, not only product or technology, because more people could contribute and share different thoughts to improve the company.

I enjoy the possibility of creat interactive work teams that can develop projects, improve processes, etc. through easy tools that are available in miro.com; those tools are intuitive and ready to use, I've have a great experiences and great results with my boss

A Bad thing is that the tool don´t have a masive style paste
I would like that I can paste an excel table
The pallet´s colors is poor, I would like to have some more colors
In a web page to select items you need to push the ctrl key + click in each item to move a block, in the tablet is an easy thing, you must to emulate that in web page

I resolve communications issues, I have an easy tool to prepare a excellent looking presentations, Miro introduce me in agile mindset only using the intuitive tools, my team enjoy develop teams and improve processes

Great tool, beautiful visuals

  • May 25, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like Miro's visuals and ease to use. I have been using it for years and never had any issue with it.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't think Miro supports area selection, which means I need to high light every element on the board inorder to group them. This task could be simplified if I am allowed to use the cussor selecting an area to automatically select all elements within.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am using Miro to create diagrams and flow charts to present abstract ideas, including project plans and workflows. The UI and diagrams are very pleasing to my eyes, and I can easily share my board with my teammates.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are looking for a collaborative with great visuals and ease to use, choose Miro. Comparing to LucidChart, it has excellent visuals and unlimited elements on a board, even for the free version.

Miro is a dynamic and intuitive tool.

  • May 25, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like to use the timer for ideation workshops, the zoom in & out bc it allows me to use many boards at the same time, and I also like the templates you have because it help me to choose the correct one that best fits to what I need.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like the music because it is very repetitive!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro helps me to visualize ideas and to achieve teamwork in a better place where all ideas and opinions are as important as others.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make a link so youtube music or spotify can be usable during the timer session.
