Shared whiteboard tool on steroids
What do you like best about the product?
In some ways, Miro enables workshops even better than a physical whiteboard. No need to clean up after you've finished, or make sure you've remembered enough pens and sticky notes. You can make the space as expansive as you like and return to it whenever you feel like it. Once everyone has connected, collaboration works very smoothly. It also allows you to create very slick-looking visuals like flowcharts and system diagrams. And the built-in mind mapper tool is helpful as well. Overall, I like the level of flexibility that it provides - you can use whatever visual language you want - while making it easy to perform common tasks like adding arrows between entities and writing sticky notes.
What do you dislike about the product?
Getting everyone up and running on a new board can take some planning unless you want to spend the first 10 minutes of a meeting ensuring that everyone has edit permission. While Miro is easy to use once you're familiar with it, there is a bit of a learning curve when you're getting started. It would be great to reduce the number of popups and feature announcements, or at least suppress them until you're ready to look at them. Usually, when I'm opening a board, I'm trying to get something done, so I will dismiss any popups without bothering to work out if they're useful.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Running and participating in workshops with teammates who are all working from home.
Developing product and technology roadmaps, for presentation within and across multiple teams.
Clarifying my own thought processes by writing things out and visualising them.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Compare the features of Miro against other tools that you're using, and consider how Miro offers the benefits of multiple tools in one package. Consider how frequently you would benefit from a multi-user shared whiteboard.
Best Tool for Workshopping
What do you like best about the product?
I love using Miro for all my stakeholder workshops; it is simple to use with many great templates in Miroverse. It has made our virtual experiences so much easier, especially throughout Covid.
What do you dislike about the product?
At this point, there is nothing immediate that comes to mind. The Miro product team is always making updates and constantly improving my experience with the tool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro has given me the ability to translate things that we used to do in person virtually in a seamless manner. It has made it easier to engage teams across the globe and document everything digitally without going back and documenting everything afterward. It is perfect for collaboration between teams and stakeholders.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would highly recommend this tool over some of the other whiteboarding tools out there. I have had an opportunity to use various tools in my career, and Miro is by far my favorite.
The virtual whiteboardingwith some cool extras
What do you like best about the product?
I love the timer feature for keeping workshops on track. A delighter is also the the music that covers the awkward silences when people are thinking or just adding content to the whiteboard but not speaking.
What do you dislike about the product?
The smart shapes. It's a great concept, but it's weak with a mouse. I think it benefits from proper freehand drawing, like on tablets. I just work around this by using the standard shapes and minimising any mouse required drawings.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Primarily it's a digital whiteboard that has replaced our physical boards and walls in the office. As such, it's easy to update - more so as people can update all at the same time! It's also a place to record history. In the past, people took pictures of whiteboards or invested in costly tech solutions that could print the board's content for safekeeping and later refer back to. With miro, we leave a session as it ended and either start a new frame or a new board to continue. It's just super simple and cost-effective.
A must have tool for remote teamwork
What do you like best about the product?
The versatillity of miro's toolbox. It contains everything you need to share and communicate your ideas with collegues.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is a bit power hungry when used with videoconferencing softwares.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Working with IT teams remotely is easy ! With Miro we are able to elaborate the software product in collaboration with every members of the teams : designing sofware or network architectures, processes, kanban boards, user flows, etc.
Online collaboration tool that isn't boring
What do you like best about the product?
As a UX designer, it makes collaboration and research synthesizing relatively easy. Easy to create and show the work/effort that goes into grouping insights to clients.
What do you dislike about the product?
Though it doesn't happen often, it can slow down a bit depending on how many post-it notes you might have on a board or the laptop/computer I'm on.
Trying to copy and paste more than 50 items from a spread sheet would be helpful as well.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use miro to synthesize UX research; surveys, interviews etc., taking qualitative answers and mapping out themes uncovered.
Also used for collaborative purposes, we used dot voting to gather what ideas were the best.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Better to try and see how it fits with your work requirements. But it's a straightforward program to use and a great place to do a mind dump before refining ideas and parking ideas aside.
My esperience using Miro
What do you like best about the product?
I really like to use it for the facilitations I have to do in the company I work for, the work becomes simple and fun, interacting with everyone and also making the steps of alignment and discovery become easier
What do you dislike about the product?
Today there are few templates, even using the miroverso I end up getting lost and not being able to use everything I could, the timer sound also ends up scaring people
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Alignments are easier to be performed especially when we are working in a hybrid way
Designing user journeys makes all stakeholders on the same page
Leave open the discoveries made in a certain period of time, being able to integrate and leave presentations and graphs made in other tools

Miro has a lot to offer for team collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
Miro is easy to use. The UI is pretty straightfoward and the level of support that you can get from Miro is perfect. Able to hit the ground running and utilize the software quickly. Also a key gem in the software is the ability to do sticky notes online and then download them into excel. No more re-typing information from brainstorm activites!!
What do you dislike about the product?
For free users you are limited to a certain number of boards but that's understandable.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Brainstorming issues, root cause analysis, collaboration, housing all activities related to an initiative or project in one place. Also ease of use so people can make traction with their projects striaght out of the gate.
The best whiteboard collaboration tool out there
What do you like best about the product?
I love how easy it is to collaborate with others, run workshops and other work sessions, and how the Miro team is clearly constantly learning about their users needs and building new cool features!
What do you dislike about the product?
Well, it's not much of a dislike, but they announced a clustering feature for the post it notes on their annual conference, and it's not available yet. It's really hard to be teased like that, and not have such a great feature available!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro makes it a lot easier to collaborate with the team. Besides the functionality to have everyone on the same board, seeing each other's cursors, etc. I think the tools Miro makes available and the way the whole UI looks makes everyone more comfortable with whiteboarding. Some people are usually shy or not comfortable with their drawing skills, and Miro feels just like a playground for your ideas.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Don't waste any more time looking for a solution. Miro is the best!

What do you dislike about the product?
I feel that Miro can have a learning curve for
Also, usually, presentations or PDFs take too long to change slides/pages, making me always want to download to go to the source Google Drive link instead of doing things directly in Miro.
Would love to import some Figma files here - I know that are some plugins, but it would be great to work it natively.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Usually, the main benefit for me is putting most information needed in one place and allows me and my team to work together even though we're all in home-office.
Not saying it takes a bit more work than doing it in person, but for me it's the next best thing.

Great tool for team collaboration, process evaluation and redesign, and teaching!
What do you like best about the product?
That it is very user friendly, you don't need any training to get started, you can find your way through practice. It is visually very appealing.
What do you dislike about the product?
I do not dislike it, but there seem to be too many tools, making things a little bit cluttered.
