What do you dislike about the product?
At first glance, you might see "too many buttons" - don't panic, it simply means there are tons of options.
Start by using what you need and slowly explore what else is possible.

Very flexible and intuitive tool, great for collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
I like the cleanliness of the interface, combined with the flexibility. Some tools do sacrifice options in the name of providing a cleaner UI, but I think that Miro successfully manages to give me all the tools I need without ever feeling complex or overwhelming.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing comes to my mind. I am pretty satisfied with all that Miro offers, haven't had any significant issues
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Miro to make mind maps and discuss problem spaces with my colleagues. In terms of benefits, it allowed me to collaborate with colleagues located in various areas of the world, successfully discuss topics with the help of visuals and diagrams, and create a shared space where we can all have the complete picture of the areas we follow.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Miro is a great and flexible tool for collaboration, mind mapping, brainstorming, and everything that requires being visual and collaborative.
One for all board
What do you like best about the product?
There are a lot of things:
1. The pre-existing templates remove the hassle of making something from scratch.
2. Very easy to build architecture diagrams and workflow. You get a lot of options to choose whether a simple box, curved box, or note.
3. Notes can be added to the board which helps a lot to keep things clean.
4. You can add a comment to the board at places where you want. This helps in remembering things as well as putting questions on others' boards.
5. You can collaborate on a board with your peers very easily. This comes out to be very useful in meetings and team-building efforts.
6. There are multiple colors and opacity-based palettes which help in keeping the board hygienic and less clumsy.
7. You can share the board directly with a specific person or a group of people which is very useful especially when you are asked after your presentations.
8. You get the status of your board in case someone modified it. You get the email as well.
9. A lot of designing tools like borders, text styling, and many others like that.

2. We use it for our company meetings.
3. We use it to explain architecture and workflow diagrams.
4. We use it for presentations and collaborative tasks.

Excellent tool for digital collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
Miro lets you collaborate with your coworkers in a very engaging manner. It enables you to create engaging and beautiful tables and charts. Further, it has a host of templates you can choose from. I use the user story map template very often. It is easy to use and can be used for a lot of different reasons.
What do you dislike about the product?
The desktop app could do with some improvements, sometimes copying and pasting items across boards hasn't worked as smoothly. Further, pricing seems a bit on the expensive side.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use miro for various reasons: 1) To plan software projects 2) To create roadmaps 3) To create user story maps 4) To create charts and visualize data. Further, I often need input from various people who are not always with me. With a remote team, planning becomes intuitive with Miro
Great for every step of systems development and maintenance - from ideation to documentation!
What do you like best about the product?
I used it (still do, but slightly less often now) for most of my engineering needs - from product or feature design to documentation-grade graphics.
- it provides an excellent balance between simplicity and feature-richness. In team brain-stormings, I can build out the complete logic/architecture of the new project/feature or a mind-map in a real-time collaborative setting
- I'm not a UI design guru, but can drop a few boxes together into a convenient visualisation in Miro before the product designers go and disappear for a week in Figma :)
- took me a while to change the mindset from academic powerpoint, but once I did, presenting boards in Miro live started being very intuitive and effective!

What do you dislike about the product?
Not much, some aspects of the formatting do not seem optimal to me (margins in text boxes, text size autoscaling, things like that) but otherwise nothing to complain about.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
See what I like best section. But to reiterate:
- service diagram drafts
- brainstorming mindmaps
- documentation-grade diagrams once fully worked out
- quick UI sketches
- all of that in collab
- I'm not a huge fan, but my colleagues love the integration with JIRA a lot!

Most powerful and friendly tool for distributed teams
What do you like best about the product?
- Intuitive interface and exceptional flexibility — you can easily visualize every flow and process in a few minutes

- An excellent set of ready-made templates, including well-known and popular cases and frameworks + Miroverse library with relevant content from other Miro fans
- Continuous development of functionality and captivating (but not intrusive) update messages
- Annual conference that touches on important topics such as cross-team communication in the era of distributed teams and products — always inspirational

What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes we need to divide the participants into groups and provide each group a separate "room" — a dedicated area on a common board — where they could work with content separately from others. The only function I'm missing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In fact, every process within the product cycle — creating and maintaning roadmaps, product discovery techniques, documentation and concepts visualization, regular agile meetings and many more — has sparkled with new colors since we started using Miro. It's extremely efficient tool nowadays since we all had to switch to the new work culture where we combine in-house and remote work mode, syncronous and asyncronous communication, transparency and flexibility.
Miro had lifted my Polish language classes to the next level!
What do you like best about the product?
I am a teacher who owns and run Into Language, a small school providing Polish language classes to foreigners. Miro has helped me enormously to deliver the best possible online classes when, due to pandemic, we could no longer conduct those lessons in person. There are a lot of things I really like. It's super easy to use, both for teachers to prepare and run classes, and for students to connect, learn and even do homework, all in one place. We do not need to spend too much time on training and onboarding. We do not need to use another tool for video calls. We can add various multimedia (photos, videos, pdfs) which makes our lessons more interesting and interactive, plus allow us to avoid disruptive tap/window hopping during the class. It simply makes our school look more professional and impress our students and clients (even companies from IT sector). Thanks, Miro team :)
What do you dislike about the product?
Performance sometimes could be better. But is still very good :)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Described above! ^^^
Endless flexibility!
What do you like best about the product?
With Miro, anything is possible. The possibilities are endless. There's a truckload of templates to use for different types of sessions, and it's really easy to set up your own board for your sessions if you don't find a template that fits. The simplicity of inviting people to the boards, and how easy the basics is to understand for participants makes this tool very rewarding to use. Visualization is a powerful concept and with Miro I get all possibilities I could ever imagine.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's still a bit too easy for a participant to move locked frames and structures.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Collaborative workshops.
Great for collaboration!
What do you like best about the product?
The flexibility and usability are amazing! It's great to organize information, ideate, and collaborate remotely. It pretty much supports any format of co-creation dynamics and you won't have to take lots of photos (that no one will check again) or carry lots of post-it notes back to your station.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing, really. Miro is great at what it sets out to do. One thing to point out is that you are probably going to need other tools in other stages of your process (e.g. spreadsheets, documents, prototyping etc).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am a product manager and use Miro from broad concept maps to structuring discovery information and specific collaboration sessions (and thing in between).
