Robust training academy and live webinars set new meeting hosts up for success
What do you like best about the product?
With the transition to full remote, my development team was struggling to map out all requirements and details needed to release new features on time. We were finding out too late in the sprint cycles that areas were being missed and details were not fully captured at the start. As a product owner, this was my worst nightmare, so I scrambled to find a solution that would allow my team to brainstorm and whiteboard together while in a remote working environment.
Miro came to our rescue and provided the platform missing to allow my team the ability to "whiteboard it out" again. I took on the task of learning Miro so I could create boards and facilate meetings successfully. I have had to learn a lot of softwares throughout my years and I must say I was super impressed with Miro's training videos, learning academy, and online community; all videos, FAQ's, and training materials are truly top notch. I also attended a live webinar that gave me the foundational skills needed to get started. I found creating boards to be relatively user friendly and intuitive. There was a bit of a learning curve figuring out how to naviagate the board and learning the different tools available and how to use said tools, however I was able to get up to speed relatively quickly. I enjoyed utilizing the various templates available from the community and editing them to fit my needs. It was a great time saver to have a template to start from and some of the templates provided unique ideas for facilating different types of meetings that I would have never thought of myself. I was also able to share a quick "how to" video to my team prior to our Miro workshop which gave folks confidence to begin participating right from the start.
The very first workshop I hosted utilizing a Miro board was an absolute success which I attribute to all of the learning/training tools Miro provides. I received extremely positive feedback from all of my team members and even though we have only been using Miro for a short time now, I have seen vast improvements to our productivity and keeping to our release schedule. I have also seen improvements in innovation and problem solving on my team, as well as increased participation in meetings that we have moved over to using Miro boards for.

What do you dislike about the product?
When many individuals are on a board simultaneously, board elements can become slow to load, especially if there are many elements on the board. However, loading slowness has not affected our ability to host successful meetings. When individuals first join the board, it seems to start at a very zoomed-out view, and participants have found that to be confusing; I would prefer that participants are placed into the board with a focus on the first frame. I do wish Miro had a way to store meeting notes with the added ability to conduct keyword searches within multiple instances of said meeting notes. I also wish there was the option to add subfolders to Projects to allow organization of different boards within a Project more efficiently. I would love to see the ability to create new board elements such as custom shapes, icons, and frames easier. My workaround has been locating a template that has a similar shape/frame/icon and then editing it to adjust to my needs, I would much prefer to create board elements from scratch a bit easier than having to try and co-opt something else.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro solves the problem of brainstorming and collaborating while working in a remote environment. Miro has provided my team the platform needed to brainstorm not only synchronously but asynchronously as well. Miro also has the added benefit that an office whiteboard doesn't have, which is that all work is saved in a board and doesn't need to be erased to allow space for different whiteboarding / sticky note mapping sessions to take its place. Miro has many templates that provide creative and effective meeting hosting and facilitating tools and the online community is active and full of individuals with great ideas and innovative solutions. While we have only been using Miro for a short time now, I have seen vast improvements to our productivity and keeping to our release schedule. I have also seen improvements in innovation and problem solving on my team, as well as increased participation in meetings that we have moved over to using Miro boards for.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
My recommendation would be to spend some time in the learning academy before jumping into board creation to familiarize yourself with the tools available and to create a foundation for success. I also recommend having participants spend about 10 minutes before using Miro to watch a brief overview video to learn the basic skills needed to participate. I have found allowing 10-15 minutes at the start of a Miro meeting for an icebreaker activity that utilizes basic board functions and tools allow participants time to get comfortable with using Miro and has fostered an environment for creativity and max participation.

Easy to communicate ideas with mind maps. Easy to evaluate product features and get feedback from the team. Miro has helped us work remotely with team members.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I shared this on my LinkedIn account earlier this month and I copy-paste it from my feed: Did you start using Miro to run Creative Sessions and workshops? As the pandemic forced us into remote working, we started using it for our innovation sessions, and I'd like to recommend it as a collaborative tool. They have this small course about User Experience Design, which is worth watching! #userexperiencedesign #designresearch #userexperience
