Love this virtual teaming experience!

  • October 28, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Miro has become an irreplaceable collaborative tool for me and my teams, especially as we are all working in a virtual setting. It has proven hugely useful for everything from daily standups, to client workshops and trainings, to internal team brainstorm sessions. I appreciate its usability, thoughtful features, and thought-provoking templates. In a time where we don't have the ability to whiteboard in a team room, this is definitely the next best (if not better) option.
What do you dislike about the product?
Miro is sometimes confusing for my clients upon first-time use and login. It could be a bit more user friendly on the web version (the desktop version works much better, but clients often don't download it for one-time use). The zoom feature gets to be tricky on the web version, is also a bit difficult to manage without a mouse on the desktop version. Clients also tend to have issues creating their very first sticky note or text box, so it may be helpful to make those features even more intuitive.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As mentioned earlier, Miro helps solve some of my solution design issues. Its in-app tools allow for creative brainstorming and whiteboarding. Some of the features (like the timer) help encourage timeboxed thinking and other ways to spur creativity despite video-chat fatigue.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you're considering use of Miro for a host of reasons, from virtual teaming to workshop hosting, I'd recommend you try it and play in the system. It may seem intimidating at first for some users, but once folks get the hang of it, they will likely really enjoy it!

Powerful and easy to use

  • October 28, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like how intuitive it is and how many possibilities it gives us to show our work to others or to organize images and ideas. It's a great platform and I don't know how I would live without it now!
What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing that I don't like. I think MIRO is very complete.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am a UI UX Designer, so I make game flows on MIRO, and I also collect references of other games, other interfaces, colors and images.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I recommend everyone to use MIRO

Easy Diagramming tool

  • October 27, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's easy to get started, really intuitive, no training needed and it's a helpful way for our team to virtually collaborate and diagram out marketing campaign flows.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes when there are a dozen or so of us in there at a time, seeing each other cursors is distracting. It looks like flies are all over your screen, but I think there might be a feature to turn this off.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Virtual Brainstorming and Diagramming mostly. Getting the campaign flows right for marketing campaigns or processes that have many steps. Making timelines and coordinating projects.

Miro is a very easy and flexible tool for team collaboration.

  • October 27, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It was very easy to start using it even without the help tips. It is very flexible as it contains patterns but you can also apply free design as needed.
It has an infinite canvas that allows working in the same theme very extensively and it is easy to locate a part of it, zoom in and zoom out.
People get very easily engaged to its use. No problem when introducing new team members to it.
It has a free cost version that can be used with no time and user limits and is very helpful even though it has restricted functionality.
What do you dislike about the product?
The Mindmap tool is not as easy to use and flexible as others I'm using.
The free version does not allow to access team members only to a single board, so if you allow someone in, they can navigate through the
three boards and make changes. Export to pdf tool is not good in the free version either. However free version is good enough to work with a estable team.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It eases team collaboration when working remotely. It simplifies how ideas are shared in the way needed: graphical, schema, adding drawings and images...
I have used it to facilitate team colaboration sessions for software development analysis and design and as a board for Team retrospective meetings.
No matter how many team members are working on the same panel, all can work at the same time, easily and with no learning curve.

Very helpful online collaboration tool

  • October 27, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Ability to collaborate online with "whiteboards", text entry, comments, chat, brainstorming, etc.
Very helpful vs. in-person to reduce travel expenses, include others around the world in different time zones, minimize language barrier challenges, etc.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes confusing to know where you are on overall large board as well as how to use product.
Definitely suggest doing a training session prior to 1st use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
On-line collaboration (due to COVID, reduced travel expense, travel time availability, etc.) as well as include various time zones
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Works really well for on-line collaboration, whiteboarding, brainstorming/design sessions, and documentation of output.
Captures all notes and input on huge board and allows easy zooming to specific sections.
Quick on-boarding process.

Best remote collaboration tool to date

  • October 26, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
1) COVID has seen us work in circumstances where we need to ensure stakeholders are actively engaged in a virtual environment. This is easier said than done! however, with the help of real-time tracking and, of course, sticky-notes, Miro helps facilitate that engagement successfully.
I recently used Miro to host a virtual workshop with over 50 stakeholders, which was successful in having everyone participating throughout the whole workshop!

3) The market place feature available to the Miro community hosts a great source of valuable templates, which you can easily personalise for your intended purpose. For example, you needn't spend time creating a heap of content for a workshop when you can import a board from the marketplace- it saved time and effort! I just can't wait till there are more available!
What do you dislike about the product?
1) Sometimes I find it difficult to find other Miro boards within different departments within the business. I believe this may be due to the information architecture levels and navigational experience.

2) It would be great to be able to easily create vector icons or have a vector library, as this would help create higher fidelity wireframes, and also save time creating icons in alternative software solutions then importing them back into Miro for use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have used Miro for activities and workshops consisting of;
• Feature prioritisation
• Journey mapping
• Competitive analysis's
• Information Architecture
• Stakeholder reviews
• Wireframing
• Agile sprint planning
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would recommend Miro for both individual professional use as well as virtual workshopping and collaborative team exercises, given I have successfully used it for the following activities;
• Feature prioritisation
• Journey mapping
• Competitive analysis's
• Information Architecture
• Stakeholder reviews
• Wireframing
• Agile sprint planning

Essential Tool for Remote Collaboration

  • October 26, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like the ability to see where the cursor is for other users and to be able to bring people to a certain part of the board to draw attention to what is being discussed.
I like the ability to integrate with other platforms like Jira, the ability to convert our sticky notes from a planning session quickly into Jira cards is a huge time saving for the team.
Showing the cursors for each of the logged in users is a great help as it gives people the ability to point to what they are talking to.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not really a downfall of Miro but when everyone is in a room you can ensure you have everyone's full attention where as remotely people can get distracted by other things and miss conversations around what is being added to the Miro board. Maybe a way around this would be to have something that tracks if the window has focus and if the user is interacting with it, if they aren't it could highlight to the other users that you might have lost the persons attention.

We stopped using the desktop application as the web browser version of Miro worked a lot better, it might be worth having Miro be an Electron based application so that it's using the same code base as the browser application.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Miro boards to do any meetings that would have traditionally had a whiteboard involved and/or sticky notes to build out a shared understanding, this tool gives us the ability to continue to work as we did in person but remotely with each of us having a voice and our ideas able to be shared with the team.
When COVID-19 happened and we all needed to work from home we had major planning sessions already planned, we would have all been in a big room with glass walls and many sticky notes would have been stuck to those walls as we planned out the next quarter of development effort and worked through the risks and challenges the project is facing. By switching to Miro we actually found these sessions had better outcomes as all the data was captured in the Miro boards and could be revisited when we all left the room, in the physical room someone would have taken photos of the walls and tried to translate that into our digital records but information was always lost in previous workshops done in this format.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Miro is a great tool for collaborating and I think marks the end of the traditional whiteboard, even if people are in the same room using a Miro board over a plain old whiteboard has massive benefits with the information captured and able to be revisited when the meeting is over. If changes are made summary of change emails are sent to participants.

We found Miro improved our collaboration at a time when we were all forced to be apart, it was perfectly timed for introduction into the organisation so that we could continue to be a highly performing team while at the same time isolated.
Miro is easy for all users to us regardless of their skills with a computer, we find the user interface to be intuitive and provides a lot of functionality without being overbearing on the user.

The greatest collaborative experience !

  • October 25, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Interactivity & fluidity of the interface
Evolutitivity with various templates, models and usages.
User experience with teammates and clients
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like to invite freely my clients to review maps, without interaction but freely.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I really had a problem with collaborative Design through videoconference systems.
Other softwares weren't likely to reproduce the real experience of a whiteboard.
Miro was the first to give me the same experience in terms of efficience, collaboration, user's implication and quality of the production.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Just try it, with various models ( mindmaps, wireframes, canvas,...) and teammates.
