What do you dislike about the product?
Currently still only in English available. There could be more table functions
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Miro for all digital workshops and meetings as a working table for the whole team. If someone has an idea or wants something to consider, it´s fast and easy to write down on this endless whiteboard.

What do you like best about the product?
Instant collaboration with colleagues. Easy to onboard our clients and get them started. Intuitive tools that mirror real life exercises -- so easy to understand how to use and interact.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes hard to track & transfer team ownership of boards and team spaces. Very easy to create objects that are too large (eg. making everything at 2% rather than 100%)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro helps us solve workshop problems by allowing us to host user research, transformation exercises, business value exercises etc. It also allows us to record it all to refer back to later.
Miro is one of my main tools as a product designer
What do you like best about the product?
I like the free-form essence of it. I can quickly create a mind-map while it's fresh in my mind. I use it at least a few times a week to get ideas out of my head and onto "paper." Then I have boards where I collaborate with my teammates to brainstorm everything from branding sprints to mapping out a system for marketing and design to collaborate. It's just really sturdy, and I've used it for many years since it was initially called "Realtimeboard." Fantastic UX.
What do you dislike about the product?
The freemium plan is very limited. I'm used to Slack and Figma, which really give you a lot as a personal user or freelancer, and they make money off businesses. I struggle to come up with any other negatives.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use it for our design sprints. That could be for a feature or for branding itself. I recently used it to develop a process mindmap that details how our marketing and design teams can work together. WIthout a visual, it's almost impossible to explain to somebody else. With Miro, I can do it all pretty quickly and effortlessly. Lastly, I love to use it for moodboards.
Miro fantastic for workshops
What do you like best about the product?
In miro you can indicate a clear route that you want to take with your workshop. You can put the presentations in it, you can work out assignments and have participants fill in post-its.
What do you dislike about the product?
I haven't found out how you can lock items so that the participants can't change the things you don't want to change. It must be my ignorance.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It supports our action research to provide advice on a complex issue.
Miro is a fantastic all around canvas tool
What do you like best about the product?
Miro is a fantastic all-around tool. As a white canvas, it has all of the standard tools and many more templates that help you get work done. And it also packs a bundle of other features making it a one-stop-shop for collaboration, from internal chat and videoconference to voting.
What do you dislike about the product?
Miro can get slow if you have a not ideal internet connection or working with big files. Managing files with many assets can be challenging, and some scaling/grouping features have a high learning curve.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As a product designer, miro helps me from research to the initial steps of designing. It is a fantastic tool to compile data while discovering; it is flexible to suit the building of flows and diagrams and robust for initial wireframing or sketches
To Miro or Not To Miro (that is the question)!
What do you like best about the product?
I was a little late to MIRO! I was the "person" that other people shared their miros with. Times have changed... now all 40+ people on my team share their miro on a weekly basis. It is a great way to have a visual representation of their work/progress and to be able to share with The Verse team at large. We use miro for ideation, product development sessions, and onboarding.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sharing of miros across free plan. I wish I could share more miros with others who have a free plan.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Visualization of products. Visualization of community. Visualization of game narratives and game mechanics.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I have used a number of whiteboards and visual tools... Miro is the best! Miro is a great collaboration tool!
How Miro is effective for Brainstorming and Record Keeping
What do you like best about the product?
I am a huge fan of how many functionalities and customizations Miro has to offer. Whether it be the ability to present within tjhe board or to collaborate with others, it is an all around great tool. Frames have been particularly helpful when it comes to showing othe rpeople testing results and doing patient interviews.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike that there is no way to save a "template" for a cluster of shapes. For example, each day I use the same combination of 3 squares connected by lines (the top square is for the date and test method, the middle square is for the picture and title of the feature we are exploring, and the third bottom square is for the numerical results). The next day I have to copy and paste the previous day's squares and erase all of it's content, then start again which is very time consuming. If there was a way to save a blank cluster of shapes and words that would be awesome.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am solving the problem of organization and collaboration in our team. With the pandemic, a lot of the engineers who did admin work and not testing like the interns were working from home because their work did not require being in office. This caused a disconnect between WFH staff and in-person staff. Miro helped to breach the gap and provided us with a solution to stay connected. It is also great for record keeping becauyse boards never expire.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Miro is a great collaboration tool, especially for large groups doing a brainstorming session (where the timer, and calling people to where you are on the board comes in handy), presentations (where frames and ability to google image search come in handly) and record-keeping (where arrows, links to files, and timestamps come in handy). I would suggest not over-crowding a board as it will eventually become very laggy due sto many different sections having to load.
Awesome
What do you like best about the product?
Miro is a must have for running sessions with a distributed people. Love the features of being able to follow people, the recent addition of a good integration with google docs, so you can embed them and update on the fly without leaving miro
What do you dislike about the product?
Controls can feel a little quirky at first and its easy for people to accidentally move things around if you forget to lock down a frame. There is a little quirk where multi-selecting something new will sometimes also select the previous objects which is a bit annoying.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
- large scale facilitation with people across different locations
- quick option for capturing ideas and iterating on them
- useful to create goal trees and current reality trees

I would seriously struggle to do my job without it
Miro has helped me and our team to adapt to hybrid working in a creative and collaborative way.
What do you like best about the product?
Miro helps us replicate the collaborative workshops we used to have in our physical office, but now working from our home environment.
What do you dislike about the product?
It would be good to have improved backups or version history so that if a user who is unfamiliar with the product accidentally deletes or moves something, it's more easily reversible.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are more collaborative in our approach to work now, sketching out our working processes and designs which has encouraged discussion and design iteration.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure to try the free templates provided; these will give you a good starting point for collaborative working.
Miro review
What do you like best about the product?
The endless capabilities for running workshops that it offers. It's only limited by the designer's imagination and creativity.
What do you dislike about the product?
Lack of shareable links for custom templates for people outside of your team/organisation. I'm a consultant working with multiple clients and this would be very useful.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Virtual collaboration with clients.
