What do you dislike about the product?
- I continually accidentally move objects if they're not locked, and it's hard to come back and lock things after the board is in use.
- The ability to scroll left and right in a panel view would be nice instead of having to drag the screen. The bottom right navigation panel is usually too small to be able to get things into the view I want, especially if I just want to move to the left a smidge.
- Also, if things are locked I can't copy one object. I have to unlock everything to copy one item of an entire board of locked items.
- When I unlock items, the previous groupings are removed
- When voting, it puts ALL the stickies as options instead of if I only want 3 stickies to be voted on
- Moving horizontal lines is difficult. The line doesn't stay straight because the left side is a fixed point

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is a great visual for whiteboarding and alignment. We use it for our Agile PI plannings, and being able to see all team dependencies on one board has been a blessing. We also use it for retrospectives, which MIRO was a great tool to pivot to when we had to all be remote due to COVID.
Recommendations to others considering the product:

It's an easy to use self-service platform to create, generate, compile, and prototype ideas.

The onboarding process could be more customized according to my profile.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mindmap creation, insight compilation, brainstorming sessions, "paper" prototypes, flowchart creation, presentation, communication, collaboration.
Realtime collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
Realtime collaboration, anytime, anywhere.
What do you dislike about the product?
• It can be a bit intimidating for less tech-savvy.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro has transformed the way our software delivery team interacts with other IT teams and our business partners. With all of the teams working in different systems, Miro has given us one place to meet; where we can all collaborate in realtime to both visualize the business problems & solutions.

Great tool! My team uses it all the time for brainstorming exercises!
What do you like best about the product?
Great collaborative tool. Very intuitive to use with sticky notes and different templates available.
What do you dislike about the product?
The organization of the miro board, it's not easy to move tab to tab especially when I have many tabs open. It would be great if it works like the chrome tabs where I can use the keyboard to switch tabs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro is solving the challenge of visual collaboration, especially for distributed teams. It really helps us in translating complex ideas and workflows into something everyone could understand and contribute to during virtual meetings. I personally use it as a quick documentation and feedback collection tool as well. Easy to copy and paste product screenshot and add comments.
High School Teacher's Best Friend
What do you like best about the product?
I love the ability to drag/drop images and use different color pens & shapes to edit.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike that when I share my screen there are still various toolbars visible. I wish there was a way to hide them, but make them appear by scrolling over them with my mouse.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have experimented with various virtual whiteboards to teach high school math, and Miro is by far the best and most superior interface.
Best remote collaboration tool for teams
What do you like best about the product?
Polished and intuitive user experience. I like that the tool offer plenty of handy little details that makes you more efficient. Recently while preparing to the workshop I've copied some rows from Excel table and pasted it to the Miro - I was surprised that after pasting it created a sticky notes for me that formed a nice grid. Most of my job for preparing the workshop done. It's the little details like these that you love.
What do you dislike about the product?
Organising boards for large organisations. We have multiple departaments (300 people, divided into 7 units, divided into countless teams) using Miro and it's very difficult to keep the structure and sharing permissions. It would be great if Miro offered same way of grouping as for example Microsoft Sharepoint so you could create folders, subfolders easily to have it organised by groups.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are running all of the workshop sessions on Miro. It's just a great visual aid to do any sort of brainstorming, aligning. We use it to design solutions to have Scrum retrospectives, but also to organise the knowledge and create "landing pages".
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Miro is hands down the best collaboration tool available on the market. For my team it's not only the go to tool to run every meeting (especially during remote work), brainstorm, or design session. It's also a great place to visually collect notes and knowledge and keep everyone in the team aligned.
A member of our team!
What do you like best about the product?
Miro is a member of our team, just like our human team members. We literally could not have done our work during the COVID-WFH season without Miro. It's allowed us to recreate most of the in-person ideation workshop experience, with some added, surprising benefits. We've onboarded dozens of people onto the platform, with very few hiccups. The learning curve is smooth and the functionality predictable (we often say, "if you think you can do it, you probably can!"). It's intuitive, visuals and really functional.
What do you dislike about the product?
Miro seems to be constantly working on improving the experience...many of the things that were initial "dislikes" have been remedied over the last few months. It is a bit of a bandwidth hog - we run MS Teams and Miro simultaneously and for those that don't have a speedy connection, the experience quickly deteriorates.
I'd also like to see some expanded opportunities to move/rename/reassign boards and teams. The functionality to do so remains a bit limited.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Miro for all of our product roadmapping, product/experience ideation and process improvement. It's allowed us to continue (and increase) our cadence of in-person workshops during this strange WFH season and also leveled the playing field for users/participants that may not speak up in an in person workshop. Combined with A/V on MS Teams, we have a robust communication platform.
Miro so cool and amazing
What do you like best about the product?
Miro helps me and my team in planning things, visualizing our mind and opinion, doing UX Research, many things. And the cool part of Miro we can collaborate together and doing it seamlessly
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it was difficult for me to search suitable templates for my project or my works. But at least, Miro provides us with portable sticky notes so we can made it by our own
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro helps me in brainstorming new ideas for innovation and searching customer pain and gain for doing product development
Great All-In-One Platform
What do you like best about the product?
I use it from the early stages of project conception and brainstorming, creating final diagrams, presentations, and deliverables. I would even chose it above Powerpoint for most graphics and presentation needs.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish it worked better with icons. Being able to drop in PNGs, change the color, and maintain an icon library would be very helpful.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Works great for remote facilitation and collaboration across teams, and making graphic creation accessible to people without design background.
Useful to collaborate, design and create remotely
What do you like best about the product?
Many features and template to start from but also allow you to create your own board according to your need.
It' shareable with people outside my company unlike Slack

What do you dislike about the product?
People that are new to Miro and to a specific board can get lost. But Miro has frames and internal links to help guide people.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
collect all information in one place and make it accessible to all relevant people without the need to log in or have software installed
