Amazing to structure and share my ideas
What do you like best about the product?
I like the simple stuff. It is easy to create texts, blocks, put in code, printscreens and connect everything with arrows. This is fundamental to structure what I am thinking and to share my ideas with the other people in the company.
I also love that the canvas is very big because i'm a developer, so I continuously use it like a notebook to save how the system was before I did any change, putting printscreens, showing a diagram of how it was and the results before I did anything. After I finish my work I just go there and create a new diagram if needed and put printscreens of my results if I ever get questioned about my tasks.

What do you dislike about the product?
I HATE that there is no control about dates, I use it almost daily and I would love to be able to know WHEN I created something and to put dates automatically in frames. There is so much stuff in Miro that now I have no Idea when I did it.
I really get BOTHERED when I am creating a flow with many post its, frames, rectangles and text because I ALWAYS have problems with the arrows. Sometimes I just cant connect it to where I want. Sometimes I have to create invisible rectangles and group it with something else just to connect my arrow. Sometimes I just can select or conect the arrow with something inside or outside a frame, and so on.
Also, I WISH there was a better way to control de fontsize and the text inside a post it. I always tend to use rectangles just because they are easier to put in text and control it, but I understand that post its are meant to be easy and fast to use.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I work with AI and we are always making out product better, such as making it beeing more assertive, doing new tasks and so on. I always have new ideias to make our product better, but to make them come to life I have to be able to communicate my idea, and Miro is the single best thing on the internet to create simple diagrams that make my idea be more than just works, with Miro people can SEE what I am saying.
After I show my idea and it gets aproved I use miro to actually put the results of the validation I am doing there, and so It gets even more visual. I can't see a world where I would convince the people around me of my ideas without using a whiteboard like Miro.

My favorite mind mapping tool
What do you like best about the product?
Miro is my preferred tool for quickly laying down any thoughts I have in my head that I need to put to paper. I've on many occasions had an idea, or a way to visualize or bring structure to ideas, and have opened up Miro to put pen to paper.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't have any concerns with Miro at the current moment. It meets all of my needs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
At a credit card company, there are consistent complex challenges and logic that we need to consider. It's important to have a tool that can enable us to quickly put our thoughts down, and formalize documentation that can truly power a small business, and get it ready for growth.
Essential tool for everyday work
What do you like best about the product?
First things first: It's easily accessible and I can quickly share content, both via link or more secure ways. I use it almost everyday for my own personal boards and collaboration efforts. Cloud based front-end means no installation and quick implementation for any group. Collaboration for workshops and coaching settings is easy and allows fast client onboarding. Most of the time quite stable and fast. Many options for layout and easy integration of images and icons for visually appealing boards. Integrates with many third party tools.
What do you dislike about the product?
100% cloud based leads to a dependency on the backend. This works 99% of the time, but when it doesn't there is no way to access your data. Better make backups and have a plan B in your sleeves. Simple onboarding is easy, but being productive in more complex scenarios needs a learning curve. Many features tend to move around in the UI and sometimes it can be hard to orient yourself.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Collaborative workshops with clients: Helps to engage everyone and collect results.
Project management: Keep all project data together, manage roadmaps, concepts and visual diagrams. Share information with stakeholders.
Personal Mindmapping and concepting: Easy tool for mindmaping and drawing concepts in an almost unlimited canvas

Collaborative powerhouse with exciting AI features, a must-have for Teamwork!
What do you like best about the product?
Miro has become an essential tool for my me and the team. We use it weekly for our team and 1:1 meetings, Ideas repository, and workshops. It’s amazing for working together in real time: it’s fast, easy to use, and keeps everyone aligned.
I don’t always use the templates directly, but I love browsing through them for inspiration when I’m stuck.
The new AI features, like grouping ideas and sticky notes, are a fantastic addition. They’re making Miro even more valuable, and I can see so much potential as these features get more refined.
I also like that we can create different areas to organize our projects and boards, especially considering we're a big organization. This helps to keep permissions and access organized.
We neved had to call customer support, and we've been using the tool consistently for more than 3 years now!

What do you dislike about the product?
When you’re working on a really packed board, it can slow down, which gets frustrating. We have this issue in our weekly meeting that we are now running for more than a year, but we want to keep the board together to have consistency and relatability to what happened/actions etc.
Also, it can feel a bit overwhelming for newbies—there are so many features that it’s hard for them to know where to start. Sometimes during workshop, as facilitator, we had to take the ownership to write on postit on behalf of the person.
It would be great if you had a more guided intro or easier way to organize boards/having smaller set of funcionalities enabled if the participant flag him/herself as a newbie.
A better offline mode would be a game-changer too—sometimes you just need to work without Wi-Fi!

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Improved collaboration across teams is at the top.
It bridges communication gaps, especially for remote or hybrid teams, allowing everyone to contribute in real time, no matter where they are.
This is invaluable for brainstorming, team meetings, and workshops.
We use it even if everyone is in person as it helps structure the workshop and manage the ideation, but mostly is beneficial for the facilitators after the workshop to quickly create wrap ups and organize the content.

What do you dislike about the product?
1. Some of the templates are over explained. It would be good for an expert user to be able to decide how the template needs to show up on the board.

Easy to use whiteboarding and charting tool but I wish was more feature rich
What do you like best about the product?
It is very easy to use. The click and drag interface and the templated actions make visualising data and concepts easy.
It is also easy to share and collaborate with others.
The free licence tier makes it easy for others to join in.

What do you dislike about the product?
Though the data in flowcharts and mindmaps are in a structured heirarchy, Miro does not export the data in that structure. Especially for csv the data comes out in one column and in the order in which it was added to Miro, which is illogical.
Items on the board that cross each other or overlap are difficult to work with as the item you want might be burried behind other items. Miro operates its layers like Powerpoint, which is equally difficult to use. I find myself sending foreground items to the back multiple times to get to the item I want.
Miro is only two dimensional. In my mind maps I want to be able to provide more information about an item in the map but the only way to do that is to create another label or postit note. I would love to be able to provide depth to an item where someone could hover and read a description of that item.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are collborating with a service provider on the scope of a CRM build. We used a mindmap Miro to represent the full breath and depth of what is required. It is useful to see all the requirements categorised and visualised so solution analysts can grasp all that is required.
Elsewhere in my organisation people are using it to show database diagrams, data schemas, collaborate on questions in RFP meetings, and document system requirements.
Miro makes it easy to do all these things because of its capability, ease of use and ease of sharing/collaborating.

What do you dislike about the product?
Not so useful for technical data models and software architecture, but maybe I need to explore this more ....
That sticky notes have dynamic font size, I want the font to stay the same so that short sentences don't seem more important than longer ones.
Can't bookmark and send a link to a particular position and zoom on a board.
Can't have connectors that center on the objects.

A shared diagramming space that is good for real-time meetings. Nice big canvas to organise a mess into something cohesive. Easy to use across platforms.
Because everyone can use it, the diagrams are useful for business continuity.
