Great collaboration tool that is getting even better all the time!

  • October 30, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's great for collaborating with lots of people at once, especially when using the feature to see collaborators' cursors. I can tell where everyone is and what progress they are making.
I also like the highlighting of changes made while you are gone. Since collaboration doesn't always mean everyone working on the project at the exact same time, it is invaluable to be able to stay up to date on progress no matter when you are working on the board.
What do you dislike about the product?
The hardest part for me right now is understanding how to set up permissions for others to view and/or edit the boards I create. The free account is simple, but an enterprise account gets very complex and therefore sharing becomes more complex. Not impossible, just tricky.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I've been using Miro for years, I have used it to solve a number of problems.

It is my tool of choice whenever I need to visualize a project or problem to solve; for whenever I need to visually organize thoughts or present information.

When our group needed to do big room planning with individuals across multiple time zones, this tool was essential for allowing us to use digital versions of the same tools (e.g. sticky notes, strings, and posters) that we were used to , so that the group could focus on the task at hand and not on retraining ourselves with a new planning method or model.

I use the tool to brainstorm with others and to expand upon ideas often through the templates available in Miro. Those templates are great! They give me new ideas of how I can use the tool.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is an excellent collaboration tool to compliment other tools used by a remote workforce. If you have ever felt that Powerpoint just wasn't cutting it, use this product and you will soon see how easy it can be to collaborate. After using this product you will want to find more things to collaborate on.

What do you like best about the product?
Miro has been a very valuable tool in collaborating within a huge team. It allowed us to coordinate and share our work across multidisciplinary teams, and we particularly appreciated its smoothness during presentations. Remote collaboration at its best, suitable for different stages of any project.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some technical issue while uploading boards from sketch. Sometimes it would just not work
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sharing project work very easily, cooperating on ideas on the boards themeselves

Most powerful diagram tool I ever used

  • October 30, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Freedom to design and collaboration with the team. During my time in software development I came across various tools, and Miro is by far the easiest, most portable and modern of them.
What do you dislike about the product?
Annotations and custom fields on objects could be improved, may this would open for more integrations. Also would like to have more docs and broad API, mainly for animation outside presentation mode.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Designing solutions for applications modernization and new components for our distributed system. It greatly improved the teams collaboration on diagrams, design thinking sessions and overall graphical documents we have.

Almost everything from event storming to presentations and solution design.

Im organizing my Masters degree. Im noting the papers i’ve read, my schedule and creating mind maps to organize my ideas.

Easy, Krisp and Engaging

  • October 30, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The one thing that I like best in Miro is a bunch o things. Miro is super easy to use and learn. Anyone that never used the tool can instantly learn how to use without much difficulty. I love the real time collaboration, post-its, templates, dot voting and time box management.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes, when there are many artboards and/or many elements, Miro starts to get slow. I use the Mac app and I thought that Miro would save in some app cache the things that are already loaded in the app.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Real time collaboration and project documentation. This makes very easy for anyone to collaborate and view everything that was done in a project.

Excellent tool, going from strength to strength

  • October 30, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Miro goes from strength to strength - almost every day there is some enhancement to the functionality.
It is by far and away the most powerful, versatile collaborative tool I've used (and I've tried them all and use Miro since it was called Realtimeboard).
It performs brilliantly even as a simple whiteboard, right up to many sophisticated features.
One feature I love is the ability to upload and deconstruct multi-page documents - google slide decks, pdfs, etc - which makes reviewing a document (and staying oriented in a large document) and absolute breeze, massively reducing the cognitive load.
Welldone team Miro.
What do you dislike about the product?
The templating functionality for some more technical uses could be improved, such as for process modelling using industry standard business process modelling techniques like BPMN.
At the moment, its limitations in this area stop the organisation that I'm working at from adopting the tool fully - instead they're using niche rival Lucidchart for this purpose and Miro for everything else, within the UX community and so on.
(Team Miro I think you're missing a trick on this one.)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Visualising complex information; facilitating discussions with / communication between disparate groups of people; having a free format canvas to organise my own analysis.

The best tool I could find to collaborate and replace whiteboard physical sessions

  • October 30, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's a tool that it's very easy to master and that works for all of the dynamics that my teams have. Things like creative problem-solving sessions, discovery sessions, brainstorming sessions, retrospectives and post-mortems. My teams have been using Miro to great effect and in some cases have changed their off-line processes to include Miro as a working tool.

For me, the things that really add value are the community templates, but I would expect nothing else form a tool that fosters communities to work collaboratively.
What do you dislike about the product?
The pandemic as seen a slew of updates with Miro trying to support and do more. We've found some bugs in the voting mechanism, so that needs some addressing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro came into widespread use at my company due to the pandemic where we needed something to replace meetings around a whiteboard, and for that effect, it worked really well.

Additionally, having a tool like Miro also changed some development team processes, making Miro the de facto problem design tool. Where before we documented in confluence what we drew, now we create everything in Miro and consolidate in Confluence and Jira. Of particular interest is the Jira integration where we do problem breakdown and story mapping and integrate to Jira once we are ready.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Don't waste time looking for other tools. It will do what you need and the community support (templates) will make your life easier and even show you some things you didn't know about!

Miro helps me to coach my agile teams and to collaborate better with others.

  • October 30, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love the way I can set up an entire environment for my remote team. We are able to work together on new ideas and use it for our retrospectives. I am even setting up an entire virtual christmas party with miro for 40 collegues. I use the timer, voting feature a lot. But the best is the possibility to set up a workshop with one of the predefined temlates, this hepls me save time and improve workshop quality.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes we forget to lock the background items and then someone accidently pulls the whole template apart. This can be distracting.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With mostly remote teams we face challenges to collaborate efficiently and unleash creativity. Since we are using miro we are able to document workshops and to continue with all post its hanging where we stopped last time. No more "where did this post it hang"? ;) We also use it for prioritizing workshops, retrospectives and ideation in our design process.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Just start using it and explore the great possibilities.
