Great user experience for beginning users
What do you like best about the product?
Miro provides a great whiteboarding experience for our teams as they work together with others in a virtual strategic planning environment. I love that we can set up custom boards, or pull in examples from others as well and modify them to meet our needs. There are a lot of great features that I still need to explore to make sure I'm getting the most of out of this tool.
What do you dislike about the product?
I still feel like there is a lot to learn about how best to use this system. I've sat through a few trainings, but it's not always easy to know how to use the various features within the tool, and how to help others take advantage of these features. The connection to our agency planning platform works, but always requires us to log in before we can access within that system. Because the Miro access shuts off after just a few hours, it requires me to log in frequently to make sure it continues to work successfully in our system as I'm setting up a session, or trying to work on sessions with others. It would be great if we could log in once and have it work consistently if I'm on the same computer or at least be good for 24 hours of access.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It has a larger workspace than what I typically use in Microsoft Powerpoint. Allows for a much larger workspace to create in and can shift easily between different sections.
Complexity? No Problem with Miro
What do you like best about the product?
Miro makes complex discovery, planning, and process discussions into a simple, collaborative tool, allowing the full team to see and tell the same story. The use cases for Miro are endless whether you are in the Project, Product, or Engineering space, there are templates and activities at your fingertips aimed at collaboration.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes connecting shapes together is buggy and more difficult than it should be. I also wish there was a better way to connect Miro into powerpoint or another exported solution.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The ability to have a collaborative planning session or discovery session is the main reason I use the miro tool. It makes it easy for everyone to visually see the flow of data as well.
Great collaboration platform, especially when you're apart from your colleagues
What do you like best about the product?
Miro helped us through covid! When the pandemic hit we started to use the software to keep on working together, do workshops, etc.
But even afterwards we kept on using it to collaborate with our collague abroad and to bring our ideas together and facilitate visualizing and structuring our thoughts.
Really great tool for collaboration, especially when you're apart from your colleagues for any reason.

What do you dislike about the product?
I really love Miro, not much to dislike about it.
Maybe just that it takes very long to load some boards and the app was also crashing sometimes.
Otherwise you can accidentally move around things if you forget to lock them and some shapes are not very handy to write something in them (I notice I end up using more post-its because of the size of text/formatting limitations).

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro brings people closer - you can be in a different country or just working from home, it really helps you to easily visualize and structure things and eases collaboration
Great collaboration and workshopping tool
What do you like best about the product?
Very easy to collaborate virtually across teams
What do you dislike about the product?
Need to lock items to prevent users moving them accidentally
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ability to quickly and easily brain dump solutions or concepts
Easy to use and good help functions
What do you like best about the product?
The scrolling in and out for navigating around the board. It is even easier with a trackball mouse.
Also like the way you can link to JIRA
You don't need to be a technical person to use it.

What do you dislike about the product?
When pasting pictures, sometimes they are blurred when you zoom in. It would be nice to have more giffs usage :)

a place to work collaboratively with other team members when on Webex
A perfect expanse for your mind or project
What do you like best about the product?
Nearly limitless toolset coupled with intuitive functionality; plays nicely with links, pasted and imported resources, and videos; allows you to dump, organize and map all the various pieces of a vast (or simple) project; offers amazing opportunities for team / group collaboration; insanely useful tool not just for planning but for presentation as well - can also easily be leveraged as a (FUN!) teaching tool. New features and integrations are continually added, so even if something isn't possible or easy now, you can bet it will be added soon.
What do you dislike about the product?
While intuitive, there can be a bit of a learning curve for new users (for instance, learning how to pull oneself across the board versus grabbing and moving board items). Board owners must be thoughtful in locking or hiding items they don't want moved or deleted ahead of time to ensure visitors don't inadvertently mess up your masterpiece. There are still some hard-to-explain quirks - for instance, some URL links (for whatever reason) show up as just links when pasted, whereas others show up as a summary snapshot of the resource.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Serving as a one-stop-shop for designing and planning an intensive leadership course; delivering the course itself (various group and individual activities will be performed in a Miro board); team collaboration and content visualization.
An excellent tool for collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
I love how we can use MIRO for collaborative meetings and Discovery ceremonies because it is easy to use, and many people can interact differently from PowerPoint, for example.
In addition, templates are awesome

What do you dislike about the product?
Unfortunately, some tools are complex, like frames, searching, selecting and moving forms. I mean the usability itself: clicking and performing these actions isn't easy. Sometimes MIRO takes a long time to open, but I cannot confirm whether is MIRO or Internet performance.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Customer ceremonies, like Discovery, PDCA and all collaboratives meetings we have. It is excellent because we can do it 100% remotely, so scheduling these meetings is easier. We can do customer ceremonies more often.
Encouraging Collaboration and Engagement
What do you like best about the product?
The speed at which workflows can be drawn when explaining the process on the board and how easy it is to set up a table and move columns and rows around. It's faster and sleeker than Microsoft competitors.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes when changing how my device is configured with screens/mouse/keyboard, the navigation around the board can change. For example, I use a tablet computer, and if I remove my mouse, then it changes for touchpad navigation. I feel like it could remain consistent in navigation unless I change it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Collaboration during brainstorming sessions used to be everyone looking at the same notepad as one individual writes notes. Now everyone is involved in brainstorming and setting up group activities is so easy in the app!
Good whiteboard with additional tagging/sharing features, but lacks logic and organization features.
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to create and share dashboards.
Tagging features are nice.
Drag and drop file features work well.
Live sessions are easy to start and work well as a collaborative space to work during meetings.

What do you dislike about the product?
Integrations with other apps are surface-level.
There is no baked-in intelligence to the organization of connected objects.
Large boards become very slow and hard to use.

A diverse and easily accessible whiteboard tool for use during meetings or to collaborate on early-stage ideas.
Collaborative brain dump before meeting to introduce topics or after meetings to record toughts.

Online whiteboarding made easy!
What do you like best about the product?
Miro is a great platform for brainstorming and idea generation. I use it frequently at work for workshops, as the live collaboration tools make it easy to present and gather feedback.
I like using the sticky notes to structure sections and cluster ideas together. This especially comes in handy when taking notes / synthesising research!

What do you dislike about the product?
- Formatting (bullet points)
- Image/object alignment
- Connecting lines between shapes can be clunky/limiting

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro solves the issue of having an online space to do all things idea generation + organisation. The interface keeps it simple with the toolbar so you don't get bogged down by the full functionality, but it's there if you need the extra help with structuring information (eg. using templates)
