Miro is the ultimate mirror of my thoughts
What do you like best about the product?
It is simple and the interface allows me to manipulate the objects as if it was on paper infront of me. Once you get used to the basic commands, it immediately becomes a great space to create and collate my thoughts
What do you dislike about the product?
Miro does not have many things I dislike. I want to edit docs or PDFs inside miro when I add them to the board (if this feature is not already there). Some of the templates do not always behave as good as I want them to, but I must say, they have improved so much since I first started using them, and I think this is not something major, just me being picky
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps me collate ideas, draw designs, collaborate designs, and plan tasks. A copy of my brain memory banks :D
I use Miro every day for all of these tasks and what is unique about it is that it allows the space for designs to be so close to where we draw and record ideas.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Just use it and spend some time playing with it to learn and learn the keyboard controls. I promise it will speed up productivity. it is the best of these tools
A great tool to draw diagrams and flows with your team
What do you like best about the product?
It works really smoothly, including when there are several people collaborating in real-time. It's easy to use and start with and comes with some predefined items and templates to start working with a team just by sharing a link. The rest of the team can join by logging, or also in anonymous mode.
Another feature I find really useful is to "follow" a person, so the canvas is always following the presenter´s mouse cursor.
Finally, the last feature on the most liked group is the marketplace of apps Miro can integrate with. It's easy to find a lot of tools you're already using, if not all of them.

What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes we need more specific visual items to use in the diagrams without having to upload an image, but I guess they cannot provide all possible use cases.
There's a Zapier integration, but I miss an Integromat one to automate with my current work apps.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were looking for a tool to use in our video conferences to share ideas and make flow diagrams, and Miro accomplished it. With this tool, we can analyze what we want to do, propose a diagram of the solution, discuss and modify, and finally decide the solution and export it to our documentation system. So the main benefit is that we can replace more easy our office meetings with a video call.
Another problem we solved with Miro is the brainstorming meetings. When we need to think about pending work to improve our application, for example, we find it easy to open a canvas, start to add notes, and then decide which ones we want to start working with, and the other remain there for the next session.

There's a free plan, so the best idea is just to register and try it for one or two sessions. Soon you'll decide if it fits your needs.
Working remotely or in person, Miro is an ideal platform for collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
Incredibly easy to use with an intuitive interface. Can use it on any platform or device with ease and even posted it as a tab within MS Teams. Works great with a tablet for sketching with teammates. Being able to seei where everyone is hovering their mouse is incredibly helpful and have even used it for voting on ideas (cursors all hovering around what grabs the most attention). Love that uploaded images are downlodable. Website address instantly convert to a small preview, which adds to the visual interest of the board. Great to see changes made by others highlighted upon launcing.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes taxes the computers processor, kicking up the fan. When the CPU is taxed, it also causes some challenges with selecting items and screen refresh - might be a bit memory/processor intensive, especially when running concurrently with a Zoom or other video conferencing session.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro has been great for sharing work progress (pinup of designs/drawings). Also use it for brainstorming sessions with the "sticky-notes" just as our team would in person. It's also been incredibly valuable for marking up work/redlining, and storyboarding presentations and publications. Benefits? Keeping everything in one accessible place. And, in the future when returing to the office, it doesn't take up physical space!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's totally free to sign up and try it. There is nothing to loose. Also, if you work with a university or other academic institution, an education account is free forever for faculty!
Miro is Fantastic for Team Collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
Being able to incorporate any kind of file in one single workspace, then being able to build your own story in that workspace.
What do you dislike about the product?
It would be great if those logged in as guests could export Miro into a PDF.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Miro for remote software consulting. The most significant benefits realized include being able to have all participants stickies in typed format. Miro boards make incredible artifacts that can be easily archived into a library for retrieval and reference later.
Multi-country workshops and complex adaptive research planning made possible
What do you like best about the product?
- It's so easy to create frames and stickies
- The templates are improving all the time
- You can 'follow' someone as they move around the board
- The url links take you straight to the miro boards
- It's colourful - which makes your ideas feel like they have life
- I might end up doing away with the powerpoint and that would be good, because miro is much faster to create things on

What do you dislike about the product?
- I have multiple accounts on miro on different research projects, with different organisations and haven't found a way of managing that yet
- sometimes when i want to move around it picks up individual items and moves those. i don't always get that bit right

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
- co-working simultaneously and asynchronrously
- planning multi-year research programmes (with contingencies) in just two hours!
- very fast brainstorming

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Watch the video. Have a play. Drag and drop a document into it or an excel spreadsheet - that is cool! Use it to brainstorm. Use it to document workshops so you have a visual display. It's great when you want to work on something at the same time - you each pile the board with stickies simultaneously and then do the analysis and organising together. It makes the collaboration process soooo fast.
Best experience for collaborative work
What do you like best about the product?
Allows and improve team work and helps to produce beautiful mind maps.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would love that Miro can work with Canva and more other apps.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use it a lot to make my mind maps, for my University tasks and so more
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Don't hesitate and start using it now!
Miro
What do you like best about the product?
the template and the fact that i can change the base template as i like
What do you dislike about the product?
if i have to put many items i have to arrange each one and there isn't a feature like "grid"
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
i'm a facilitator and with miro i runned my courses in the lockdown so for me was a way to work.
it's easy to explain to my customer and very nice to see, so for it's easy to propose for my workshop

Best collaboration tool ever!
What do you like best about the product?
Miro is wonderfully easy to use and self-explanatory, I don't have to work on different platforms but can cover everything with it.
I like the simple and clear design, the numerous templates, the integrated video chat works great. Together with my team, I use it every day and don't want to miss it anymore. Absolutely recommendable for every team!

What do you dislike about the product?
During the video chat you can see only 4 participants, we sometimes lack windows for more colleagues... You could maybe add the possibility to document share, that would be nice to have.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have thus shortened our daily coordination extremely and can map projects more transparently and in real time. The team is much happier, progress and problems are immediately visible, we are much more efficient in our collaboration and this is also visible in the company's success. We achieve faster and more sales!
Miro is essential for digital collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
The unrestricted environment to create in is the best part. From small brainstorming sessions to building out an in-depth and involved workshop for a large group, complete with breakout sessions and slideshows, Miro can handle it all.
The integrations are also incredibly helpful. The ability to import files from google drive and tasks from Asana during our team's brainstorming sessions have allowed us to capture ideas that have been scattered across platforms and engage with them in more creative ways.

What do you dislike about the product?
There is a bit of a learning curve, particularly for folks that may be less tech-savvy. While Miro has many learning resources available, having to go through them before folks feel comfortable enough with the platform to engage with it can delay them from fully engaging.
I also really wish that Miro had the ability to draw shapes with the pen tool then fill them in with a paint bucket tool. There have been more than a few occasions where I'd love to be able to create simple illustrations, and end up having to do so in Illustrator, exporting it, then uploading it to Miro.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our work in restorative justice relies on human connection and relationships, and we've used Miro to engage and connect in different ways than the video conferencing that we've all become too familiar with. For example, we've hosted virtual restorative justice circles through Miro, along with countless activities for check-ins and icebreakers.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I find that the best way to move past the initial learning curve is to dive in and play with the program. Many features are very intuitive, particularly if you're comfortable using common keyboard shortcuts, but It can take some practice to feel confident.
Also, take advantage of all of the templates available in the Miroverse!

Great Experience using Miro
What do you like best about the product?
The best of Miro is the freedom that you have to organize your things. Also, all the templates that you have, all the tools are handy.
I like all the tools for colaborating like share access to a board, presenting, or even follow someone on your team.

What do you dislike about the product?
I think something that it can improve is that you don't have a scale of sizes, like what's the right size for a presentation or for any activity. Also something that I think is missing is status of things, I mean you have the cards but they have a lot of information, and if you need something like a check, it could be a good thing have a button or something like that.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The process of start designing, doing mood boards or looking for references. The communication of everyone I think is really good, the way you can share things, or doing a sketch is really easy.
