Makes team management easy and meeting fun!

  • November 15, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The ability to create templates that can be shared across the team
What do you dislike about the product?
Doesn't have great integrations with slack. I'd like to be able to quickly send frames to slack channels (Ex. Meeting recap frame)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Making team meetings fun and creating a clear long term picture for our company
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you use a whiteboard, need to create a plan for your team, or make meetings fun again, Miro is a must.

Amazing software!

  • November 14, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It is an infinite whiteboard! You can do whatever you can imagine. I am a very visual learner and it helps me to see all of my ideas and concepts laid out on a digital whiteboard. It is like visualizing my entire brain. I use it as a brain dump when I have too much going on inside my mind. I also use it extensively for teamwork. It is especially good with real time projects.
What do you dislike about the product?
A bit slow and performance drain. I wish it had better performance. Just now I was checking which applications used how much resources and the desktop Miro app for mac used almost an entire gig of ram. It can also be very sluggish when loading new boards for the first time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am trying to stay organized, to brainstorm, to think carefully.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Definitely give it a try. It makes you faster, smarter, more organized!


    Management Consulting

Irreplaceable asset for innovation consultants

  • November 14, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Workshop pre and post data collection and synthesis are a breeze, especially for team members not on the project or not in the workshop. We used to lose a lot of our "paper data" on the way back from workshops.

The ability to create an essentially limitless whiteboarding space is irreplaceable for consultants. It makes us appear as cutting edge and tech-savvy while maintaining that scrappy-innovative look.

clients have commented that the amount of content we are able to collect on Miro would likely take up their entire office space. We're performing and executing better work AND saving our clients money.
What do you dislike about the product?
There's a learning curve. Definitely-- especially with our ~older~ audience. It takes them longer to pick it up. However, Millenials and Gen-Zs pick it up like second-nature. This is not necessarily a bad thing (again-- it's scrappy-innovator-esque and not everyone can pull that off).

That said, there definitely needs to be onboarding and training provided-- if it were built into the MIRO paid plan that would be very helpful.

Additionally, there are some features that I believe should be accessible to free users like downloading board images.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We run the gamut with our consulting group-- we focus, though, on people, process, and place oriented problems. Miro is usually used for collecting qualitative data for us-- though we know quantitative can work in Miro too.

It is a super easy tool to integrate with any design thinking exercise. I used it in Design Thinking School as well.

Miro has enabled us to run remote brainstorming sessions, which is helpful during these times.

  • November 13, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like its real-time collaboration features. For instance, in our agile team, we can host our ceremonies on Miro (i.e. story-pointing exercises, kanban boards, etc.) I've also found it helpful for card sorting and design thinking sessions to gain insights on taxonomies and site navigation.
What do you dislike about the product?
In all honesty, there's little I dislike. There's a slight learning curve to using Miro if you haven't used it or similar applications before, but Miro does a good job of walking you through the interface and different functionality.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Working with fully remote teams and getting stakeholder feedback and alignment when it comes to design direction can be challenging when only relying on video conferencing applications. With Miro, there's an interface where everyone actively participates, making it both practical and engaging.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I'd recommend exploring Miro and all it has to offer. There's a ton of stuff that can be really useful if you're aware of them beforehand.

Amazing Tool

  • November 13, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The simplicity of a simple board, the metaphor of a set of board and post it is amazing.
What do you dislike about the product?
To tell the truth I think that is few to any feature that I really dislike, for my use it's a perfect tool, but I would like to export as PDF sometimes.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Communication, this is my biggest issue. I can show the flow for all team, and make available for developers to understand the app behaviors. And I can see that we make the entire vision of the product accessible make our product meeting quite efficient.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you want a tool of virtual board with a lot of features for multi purposes and with an efficient support, you will must to consider to use Miro. I'm quite happy with this tool.


    Design

My experience with Miro

  • November 13, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I really like the ease of use of Miro and the ability to collaborate simultaneously with my colleagues. In this way we are able to carry out our tasks faster and in a more organized way.
What do you dislike about the product?
The thing I like least are the arrows, too small! (and sometimes they don't connect well) and maybe the chat notifications sometimes go unnoticed.
As for the rest I like and appreciate everything!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It allows me to work with my colleagues during this quarantine period and continue to design my products. With Miro I also solved the problem of organization with my colleagues and I improved the quality of my works.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Start using it without fear, it is really comfortable and useful. I advise you to experiment a lot at the beginning using all the tools available on the left. It will make your life easier.

Miro gives you the power to focus on your challenge, brainstorm to collaborate and jump forward.

  • November 13, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Miro provides a canvas for quickly visualizing challenges, brainstorm ideas, and work with teams to capture, illustrate, document, and jump forward on a project. As a designer, I love that miro does not get in the way, it provides a simple way to grab assets onto a board, add comments, stickies, draw on top of to quickly capture an idea and then share, download or invite a team to view, contribute or provide feedback. I can share a link with a team member and they are able to jump in via a browser, the app, or on a mobile device.
What do you dislike about the product?
When you first jump in, the double click or triple-click that is required to select or switch to an editing mode.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Everything!
Quickly brainstorming a new concept.
Capturing notes during a brainstorming session.
Reviewing concepts and options.
Facilitating design team activities.
Working thru a challenge or idea.

Virtual facilitation without boundaries

  • November 13, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The diverse range of shape tools, icon libraries, video embed options, presentation and facilitation functions make this such a versatile platform. The tool is deep for a workshop facilitator while also being simple enough for the basic first-time uses. The ability to share boards and create co-creation spaces has been a game-changer during COVID and fast-followers like Microsoft have a long way to come to cover this gap.
What do you dislike about the product?
On occasion, performance has been sluggish but this has been improved lately. The lack of public/annonymous boards was an issue before but is now made available. I look forward to the ability to force password use on public boards going forward as a company admin for cyber risk protection. Archiving and board organisation capabilities are limited. Slightly complicated enterprise pricing plan with lacking usage analytics tools.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Workshop facilitation was a real challenge before. Miro makes it possible to make space and visualise any conversation.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Consider how you will organise, distribute accountability for administration and archive your documentation as part of your roll-out plans. This has been something we have had to come back to retrospectively to ensure sustainability of our use of the platform.

Miro is a life saver during the virtual collaboration revolution

  • November 13, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like the very user friendly interface, the good performance even over low bandwidth links, and also the live collaboration of all team members that actually wouldn't be possible on a real life whiteboard or flip chart.
What do you dislike about the product?
I've been using Miro for three months now and i can't think's of a down side so far.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro is definitely helping to collaborate and brainstorm with the team virtually and the good thing is that what we come up with remains there, so we don't have to take photo shots of the whiteboard or take a flip chart with us from a meeting room
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would recommend that users start with the simple features like brainstorming or collaboratively using sticky notes instead of trying with complex advanced templates that might frustrate them. I also strongly recommend registering for one of Miro's live webinars and checkout the different courses on Miro's academy.
Don't try to use all the stencils and tools from the left tool bar all at once from day one, but rather start with a simple canvas and then enhance it as you get more familiar with Miro and its features.
Try to share your Miro experience with your peers and colleagues within your organization and also it's very important to ask for their feedback and knowledge sharing to be able to fully utilize Miro in the right way and for the best purpose that will make everyone's life easier in the organization especially during the new norm and the virtual office life we are all living nowadays.
I would also try to integrate Miro with Microsoft Teams to receive live updates about your board within your Microsoft Teams team space or channel, as it's important to share with the team that you have done an update to the board instead of waiting for them to manually go and check it out

Game changer

  • November 12, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The best part of Miro is that it has allowed my team to continue working collaboratively during COVID-19. Further to this, we have started to go back to the office here in Australia and it turns out I actually prefer using Miro to an actual whiteboard! Less paper, fewer pens, less bother!
What do you dislike about the product?
I cannot think of anything I dislike. Great job :)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Collaborative design processes.

With Miro we have managed to continue and even increase the collaborative nature of our design process. Designers have all the tools they need to run design thinking sessions and it's been great.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are considering using Miro, just do it. It's so easy to use, so much more engaging and you will save the planet while doing it.
