Great for organizing your workflow
What do you like best about the product?
The special feature of Miro is that it allows you to work in multiple ways, organizing the entire workflow with your team: from the creation of diagrams for information architecture, to whiteboards, to the assignment of tasks.
What do you dislike about the product?
At first the interface may not be immediate, precisely because it has many functions. For the free versions it is only possible to download low resolution files.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Miro as a UI / Ux designer, especially to organize my work and to create information architectures and customer journey maps. It greatly favors agile work.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Miro is an excellent platform for managing and organizing your work and that of your team, thanks to mind maps, whiteboards and a series of collaborative tools that simplify the flow. One of the best of its kind.
Great collaboration tool, some limitations
What do you like best about the product?
I like the flexibility and ease to create workflows and other diagrams, and the fact that the board is as large as you need it, with the ability to zoom in and out. Also, I like the variety of tools it provides to make the visuals more enticing and easier to the eye.
What do you dislike about the product?
When trying to share with larger teams, it seems that we continuously face the fact that if they need to collaborate and edit, they can't unless we add them to the team. However, then they get access to other boards; maybe these are global settings, since we are in a corporate environment with multiple teams, I wonder if these settings could be made more granular so each team can select whether it is a single board or entire team visibility/sharing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have mapped processes and discovered pain points and opportunities but also mapped our Enterprise Architecture of applications and the interaction among them. I have used this also to develop procedures and documentation for settings on our applications.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
To try it first, make sure you understand the number of people that will require a license to create to use this to understand well the licensing needs. Training, even though the tool is very intuitive is important.
Miro is a very good resource for me in the classroom. I use it when teaching virtually/in person.
What do you like best about the product?
I like best that I am able to pull up my classroom instructions and have a white board in the same window. On my setup, it would be impossible to use a whiteboard while having other resources up at the same time.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish I could import graph paper for a background and would love to be able to erase part of a line instead of the entire part that I drew without picking up my pen.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I teach math and have my classroom set up does not have an actual whiteboard. Truth is, sometimes you actually need a whiteboard for kids to do math problems interactively on. Kids can also use their Chromebooks as whiteboards while doing boardwork practice. It's less messy and requires zero supplies!!
Made working at home great again
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to organise workshops with team members on distance and get so much value/input from everyone on the call
What do you dislike about the product?
Not much, really, just a minor one which is that some elements won't allow them to be locked so people can't move them accidentally
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Workshops with clients, project planning sessions and wireframing digital experiences
The essence of Miro
What do you like best about the product?
Miro is an easily navigable, infinite, digital whiteboard that makes collaboration inviting. Have an idea, concept, or even a simple plan? Use Miro to mindmap it out. Want to figure out a workflow for your business? Create the diagrams and flow charts in Miro frames to quickly scroll through them, share them or even print them. Want to collaborate with friends or colleagues? Share your Miro team or board with them with any level of involvement or access. Need a space for all of your documents, presentations, images, or other files? Load them to your Miro board, so everything is in one convenient area.
Miro makes work easy and enjoyable.
Miro makes work easy and enjoyable.
What do you dislike about the product?
Listing "cons" is a bit of a challenge, as everything has worked great for me so far. Scrolling through a document could be faster. Some of the objects, like tables, tend to load a bit large, so you will most likely have to resize.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I own a consulting business where I help others optimize their workflows, processes, and data management. I use Miro extensively to mindmap, diagram, create flow charts, and so much more. It has become the essential tool of my business, given how much I use and rely on it.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Dive in. Enjoy the learning process (which is quick) and have fun making things. It's the most enjoyable tool I've used so far.
CMo
What do you like best about the product?
Sharing information by mixing Text, images allow engaging persons in collaboration also in remote
What do you dislike about the product?
I tried to use miro for project managing (gantt), but the dynamic manipulation are too heavy: include subtask needs to reorganize le board, a function "insert" like in excel could be an excellent function
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It allows combining "interactive sessions" with partners and "off-line sessions" off work. Everyone can work autonomously but a permanent link with overs.
Must-have tool for product development teams
What do you like best about the product?
Endless canvas for any kind of work: Product Discovery sessions, ideation workshops, concept reviews with engineering ... In the past this would've been many files across different tools (problem statements in GDocs, flowchart in draw.io, mockups in Balsamiq). And not all of them are so collaborative live Miro. In a remote setting, it's just an indespensable tool.
What do you dislike about the product?
If you're a small team or startup strapped for resources, Miro can become expensive quickly once you want to go beyond the initial 4-5 people working on a project (including colleagues for review sessions, for example). At least that's how I remember it. They may even have fixed this experience so you don't need to create paid accounts for these kinds of users anymore.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's so many use cases: Alignment sessions with stakeholders in the product development process, building large flow charts for new product updates and how they'll work, running retros, design studio workshops. The facilitation is just so intuitive, despite the many cases covered. It's really a great and flexible tool, kind of like Excel, which you can use for tracking finances, project management, contacts list etc.
Great collaboration platform

- working with others on the same miro board
- templates for easy organization, e.g., Kanban board
- follow someone else's screen
- hiding/showing cursers

Great for UX Design: Wireframing, Brainstorming, and UX Research
What do you like best about the product?
I love how flexible Miro is. Before I was using a plethora of tools, one for doing simple wireframes, one to brainstorm ideas, and one to map UX research. Now I can use Miro to complete a wide range of UX design tasks all the way from the research phase into the prototyping phase. I particularly appreciate that you can share your boards or designs with people who don't have a miro account, and they can still interact with your boards and add comments. This makes it especially helpful when I'm working with stakeholders who don't want to have to create an account for tools that they'll never use outside of their meetings with me.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only downside is if you're looking for a tool to create high-fidelity mockups or prototypes it isn't necessarily as comprehensive as Figma or Adobe XD. However I've found that Miro is more useful than those tools for working to make decisions with stakeholders and come to a decision on the overall direction a design should take.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm solving being able to get feedback from stakeholders efficiently. I also love how easy it is to create low-fidelity wireframes. It makes it easier to generate a lot of ideas and present those to stakeholders in a way they understand and can visualize.
It also allows me to show how different elements or ideas are connected when I'm using it as a planning tool. Before I used Diagram.IO or a separate diagramming tool to create flow charts. Miro is great because I can create a wireframe, and then on the same board I can also create a flow diagram showing what happens in the backend as a user interacts with the page. This has also helped improve communicating with our development team.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would recommend trying it out. They have a free version. There's a lot of flexibility in how you can use it, it also integrates with a lot of other tools and platforms.
Miro is really easy to use with tons of great UIs.
What do you like best about the product?
There are tons of premade templates that I can pick from. The template also comes with great descriptions and recommendations on how to use them. I also like that I can share only a part of a board to a client or an employee.
What do you dislike about the product?
For me, it's all about the price. All the skills I have acquired during my management time can be translated in most popular software. I started using Miro because everyone was talking about but the price per user might be a dealbreaker.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's made my life easier for real-time screen sharing. I can easily share information with my team or my clients in real-time. I can lead a meeting easily and have everyone focused on the same thing as me.
