Fantastic platform for product design
What do you like best about the product?
Miro is a fantastic platform for product design. Two things make it great: it's very easy to learn to use, and it makes it extremely easy to collaborate with others. I'm a UX desogmer amd o've been using Miro for a couple years for brainstorming sessions, creating user journeys and workflows, information architecture, capturing requirements, and organizing data from user research studies.
What do you dislike about the product?
One thing I don't like about Miro is the need to zoom in and out frequently. You often need to zoom out to arrange things on a board, but when you do you can't read the text on each individual items, so you need so zoom back in. I wish you could over over an item and get a pop-up showing the text on that item.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It provides an easy to use collaborative workspace, the virtual equivalent of a project "war room".
The best collaboration tool
What do you like best about the product?
It can be used for collaborating, sharing, alignment. Its a very versatile tool that can be applied to many business processes.
What do you dislike about the product?
Cannot have different sized fonts in the same element like a text box, sticky note. color options are limited.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
To align on common objectives, a place for collecting ideas, single source of truth. Works well in tandem with documentation tools like Notion and Google docs
Overall positive and easy to use.
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to use, can be good when drafting a project in a team, good for presantations as you can easily share your board with others.
What do you dislike about the product?
Difficult to manage the other miro users at times, sometimes difficult to find what you need.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Helping us get work done while in a team or in our own time, has good tools that make it easy to present our work to others.
Very effective for brainstorming and planning
What do you like best about the product?
The freedom of being able to plan and brainstorm with no drawbacks.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not being able to own multiple boards on a free account.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro solves my planning problems as well as group collaborations with communication being very clear amongst peers.
One of the best collaboration boards and with a pretty powerful trial too!
What do you like best about the product?
The different tools and the unlimited number of objects you can paste or upload into your board is amazing. I've used Miro to do brainstorming with my colleagues and it's always been a fun time seeing their name's on the cursors.
The available templates are also quite useful. In terms of user acceptance, I mainly had to do a 20 minute demonstration with my users and they were pretty much set to use it. We were also using it inside of our team for think tanks and ice-breakers. I use Miro pretty much daily, personally. And would definitely recommend it to others.

What do you dislike about the product?
As I've used other similar tools, they had options to put things into 'folders' inside of a board.
This allows you to basically create a complete storyboarding experience. So in that folder, you can have a mood board, character introductions, or project timelines as well as log books in terms of updates and feedback.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The visual aspect of certain processes as well as just getting ideas down. All those are very handy!
great platform for any project
What do you like best about the product?
miro has many incredible features, but I think the ability to have multiple people on the same project live is what makes it special. Using miro makes idea generation a simple thing For any project. Every time I have a new idea for a project I immediately make a miro board and put down the images I need. I make diagrams of the ideas that I have and other programs to visualise everything in one place. miro is a must have program that everyone in the creative media industry.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only major downside to miro It is not being able to import video and audio, but naturally this would make many data problems. Other than this, I find it easy to use and filled with features and integrations.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
miro is helping to bring every part of a project into one software. I don't have to use three different websites because I can use miro to collectively hold all my ideas.
Great collaborative tool
What do you like best about the product?
Convenient tool to build a variety of visualisation and presentation resources, especially if you need to collaborate with people that are not proficient in other traditional design tools, like Adobe Illustrator or inDesign. We were using an annotation system to review/update documents, which was really inconvenient as only limited people could action the original files. With Miro, everyone can just action the file directly with little to no training. Would recommend for documents that require multi-user input or iterative development.
What do you dislike about the product?
- Limited exporting options - We use a variety of other software, including Adobe Creative Cloud, Prezi and Microsoft Office, and transferring assets across them is not always straighforward. PDFs are either too large or too small. No option to export images as PNGs or a format with transparent background (my work-around is to select the objects > copy as image > paste on illustrator and export from there).
- Grouping/ungrouping objects - if you group 2 or more groups, and then ungroup them, every object is unlinked. It would be better if it reverted back to the smaller groups, then into individual objects.
- Would like to see a feature for organising boards in a grid-like manner, responsive with reordering the frames in the side panel.
- For a well-rounded design solution, it would be good to see more text formating options, icon libraries in a variety of colours/styles, and built-in functions like drop shadow, colour gradient, etc.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Visually centralising our assets into presentations and mindmaps, in a format that everyone can use.
Easy to use
What do you like best about the product?
There are a lot of templates available on Miro, which is useful when I am trying to brainstorm things. There are also a lot of shapes and things like which provides a lot of flexibility. Miro is also great for collaboration with teammates.
What do you dislike about the product?
Can't really think of anything I dislike about Miro at the moment.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We do a lot of collaborative work, so we often hop on a call and brainstorm ideas on Miro. The ability to attach the writer's name on a post-it note and the comment function is really useful. Another useful thing is the timer. We sometimes have issues with meetings running out of time, so having this timer helps ensure we are on time.
Endless Canvas for Endless Ideas
What do you like best about the product?
The canvas just keeps growing to accommodate all your ideas. Great for sharing thoughts with others.
What do you dislike about the product?
No offline so you can't use it on a plane or without network.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Explaining UI designs. Customer strategies and project management. Product management.
Great workshop, braindump and low-fidelity prototyping tool
What do you like best about the product?
Flexibility, low time to get scribbling on ideas.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not great at "straight lines", I am using Lucid charts for creating more complex diagrams.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
An online whiteboard. I love a space to screen dump and create simple mockups like that.
