Miro Simplifies Client Discovery and Teamwork
What do you like best about the product?
What I value most about Miro is its strong support for real-time collaboration. The ability for multiple users to edit simultaneously keeps meetings dynamic and efficient. Clients can easily keep up, thanks to an interface that’s straightforward to navigate. Visual cues such as cursors, highlights, and comments ensure everyone remains aligned throughout the session.
The flexible canvas is another feature that stands out to me. With what feels like limitless space, I can organize sessions naturally, dragging, grouping, and linking ideas without being constrained by layout limitations. This flexibility is particularly helpful when sessions change direction unexpectedly and I need to adjust quickly.
Templates also save me a significant amount of time. While Miro provides a variety of built-in templates, I’ve also developed my own specifically for requirements gathering. This approach streamlines each session and maintains consistency, regardless of who I’m collaborating with.

What do you dislike about the product?
We converted from Mindmapper to Miro to simplify our toolset. But there are a couple of features we miss -
No way to change font styles on specific nodes.
No option to change node shapes (like ellipses for emphasis).

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Miro primarily for requirements gathering during client sessions. I invite clients into a live board where they can share their goals, pain points, ideas, and anything else on their mind. As they speak, I capture their input in real time. This makes the process feel collaborative and transparent, since they can immediately see their thoughts being organized on the screen. It helps turn a raw brain dump into something structured and actionable right there in the moment.
To make these sessions more consistent, I created a custom template that I use almost every time. It gives the conversation a framework without limiting creativity. I’ll attach a screenshot of that template as part of this review.

Versatile Tool with Room for Improvement
What do you like best about the product?
I really appreciate the room to spread out information and the ability to include various information formats in Miro. The AI tool is incredibly useful for extracting summaries from larger documents. It saves me a lot of time when I'm looking at patents or interview transcripts, helping me to quickly pull out a general summary or focus on specific topics. Setting up Miro was simple since I've been using it for a while. I was using Miro at my last job and liked it so much that I brought it with me to my current job.
What do you dislike about the product?
Tables and spreadsheets are pretty limited. I often end up with tables with large cells and very small text. I have to spend time formatting them before they are legible. Often complex tables have to be done in Excel and not in Miro because there is just not enough functionality in Miro for even basic stuff. Sometimes I am pasting in information from emails or from an interview transcript and my content gets clipped because I hit the word limit for the document. I end up having to put it into a Word doc and then paste in the Word doc. I think there is room to improve handling some of these larger docs that can be used as source material to pull out user needs, problems to solve, solution ideas and so on.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Miro to organize various information formats and navigate between sections easily. It lets me spread out information and the AI tool helps extract summaries from documents, saving me time.
Versatile Workspace for Mind Mapping and Agile Boards
What do you like best about the product?
Broad capabilities, like I can build a mind map and an agile board in a single workspace
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes managing a lot of elements on a board can be a hassle. Also, sometimes default shapes don't look good, so I could use a bigger catalogue and some design assistance.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Customer journey mapping, development planning, people management
Flexible Platform with Constantly Evolving Features
What do you like best about the product?
Flexibility, new features and updates according to our necessities as a product team.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find it difficult to modify templates, and there are only a few post-it colors available. In terms of security, it is too easy to access and share a confidential board. I wish there were an option to share just a specific, limited section of the board, so that visitors would not be able to see the rest.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
A collaborative and visual workspace designed for teams focused on product development.
Powerful Visual Collaboration, Slight Mobile Limitations

What do you dislike about the product?
Performance issue on large boards and specially limited functionality in mobile apps

Miro addresses collaboration and problem-solving challenges with its visual, infinite workspace, facilitating teamwork. I like its powerful visual collaboration, enabling seamless teamwork, brainstorming, and project planning with rich integrations even for complex projects.
Powerful Collaboration Tool with Room for Improvement
What do you like best about the product?
I like Miro for its plethora of templates that help me quickly think about presenting my ideas better. The collaboration feature is fantastic because my entire team can work together on the platform. I appreciate the integrations with tools like Jira and SharePoint, which bring all the documentation into one place. The AI features, or 'sidekicks,' are quite beneficial. Miro is my go-to tool for creating large canvases, as I did for a six-month project, which allowed me to store all necessary information and share ideas with the team effortlessly. These aspects really stand out for me.
What do you dislike about the product?
Even though we use a licensed version, I don't understand why prototyping is a cost. I really wanted to try prototyping in Miro, especially since my UX team uses Figma to show detailed interactions. When I try to create wireframes during my ideation phase, Miro feels more like a static flowchart rather than allowing interactive prototypes. Without prototyping, it's like just showing the canvas in full-screen mode. It would be more helpful if prototyping was included in the current license. I think the product team should be able to use Miro to share thoughts and ideas at a level where a wireframe can be shown, instead of relying on Figma.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Miro for user story discovery, writing down ideas, creating workflows and flowcharts, summarizing meetings, and conducting team retrospectives. It helps organize product discovery and ideas in one place.

Streamlined Design Collaboration with Miro
What do you like best about the product?
I like how Miro allows for the team to collaborate easily and receive updates instantly. The ability to add photos is a feature I enjoy. Its collaboration features enhance our team's work by allowing users to add their own comments, respond to others, and come up with actionable solutions. The initial setup of Miro was extremely easy.

I find it hard to adjust images and make things look nice and organized. I also wish for automatic scaling of images.

Empowers Creative Collaboration with Ease

Aligning things is a bit tough because there are no alignment lines that pop up (I'm a designer used to tools like Figma)

Transforms Project Visualization and Collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
Being able visualize projects and specific features changes how we are able to communicate with our customers and work on internal projects. The flexibility to start with a tempalte or start fresh is huge. I use templates to help run workshops and meetings. But then always use the blank start to put notes on current projects.
What do you dislike about the product?
Because it is so flexible, it can be overwhelming to get simple things done - but that is more of my workflow problem, not a Miro issue.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps us with project plans that used to be hard for our customers to visual. It helps with internal planning and prioritizing. It is our go to if we are having a hard time communicating with our clients. We can always put something in Miro to help us show what we are talking about.
