Great tool for collaboration, ideation and visualization
What do you like best about the product?
The user interface is easy to use and there is a wide variety of tools available. Sharing options fit our needs and it is an excellent tool for ideation, roadmap creation, brainstorming, and design of processes. It is essential for our Product and Engineering teams. There are many practical, pre-built templates, and the Miroverse offers even more options. The community around Miro is also great.
What do you dislike about the product?
We would use Miro even more if it would be easier to integrate the results from a Miro board to our agile delivery or Roadmap tools. We can link entire boards easily, but for example, creating a Ticket on a Miro board could automatically connect to an item in other tools (we are using Targetprocess), but it is not available yet. The wireframing solution in Miro is helpful but feels limited now, we have better solutions for low-fidelity wireframing. I find the Note section of boards useful for meetings, but the functionalities are a bit limited. It would be great to easily link this to other systems, documents, schedules, etc. There were some enhancements to diagramming, but I would still like more pre-built items tailored for Engineering (e.g. displaying entity relations). Overall it is still a very good solution though.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The biggest problems it solves for us are ideation and brainstorming across departments, visualizing business models, roadmaps, OKRs, displaying processes and flows and capturing ideas around solution architecture.
The perfect tool to mind dump in beautiful ways
What do you like best about the product?
I love how easy it is to create any visualization from processes, collaboration views, presentations, and even mockups to create understanding between teammates quickly. The voting, the music and notes features are just delight additions to an already great tool that has more and more taken over my workflow particularly in this new normal we live today.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would love to get more fonts, but that's more a pet peeve of mine than an actual request, as Miro has added quite a few more options lately.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Variety of use cases. I create and analyze customer journeys collaboratively. I define processes diagrams with my team and use the tool to understand vulnerabilities. I also use Miro frequently to present data clearly and completely. I can show not only the complete flow but also the data associated with the flow. It's a massive game-changer in comparison with traditional slide presentations.
Incredible product for a range of uses
What do you like best about the product?
I appreciate the flexibility of Miro - both in terms of its use (from individual brainstorming to sharing interactive slides) and in terms of its tools (sticky notes, shapes, text, arrow types, etc.) With the various tools available, Miro makes it easy to see the most important ones and not get lost in the clutter. They are responsive to their customers and are constantly adding trainings and tools.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can sometimes be difficult to onboard folks who are not familiar with using online interactive tools.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro has helped us organize our thinking about complex projects, map processes with clients, reflect on our own processes, and keep track of loose ideas in a structured way.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try it out for a few different uses to familiarize yourself with the tools. Keep challenging yourself to try one new thing.
Virtual whiteboard, brainstorming tool, and so much more
What do you like best about the product?
I love the ability to capture links and screenshots from anywhere and arrange them in a visual layout to help plan the strategy for my UX projects. I think Miro is more sophisticated than Mural and allows for more creativity. I also love the pre-built templates that help me learn new UX methods and make my boards look more professional.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think the board settings are difficult to manage especially if you are part of a team account and trying to invite collaborators to specific boards and not the entire team account.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I typically use Miro during the Discovery phase of a UX project. I use it to visually document my findings, do affinity mapping, annotate samples I've collected, etc. I don't think I could do this in any other application!
Still the most useful tool I use!
What do you like best about the product?
How intuitive it is. I love the different ways that you can present information and share information.
I've used it for work - for collaboration AND for personal stuff with house renovations etc. It does take a bit of getting used to in terms of controls (especially if you started on a Mac and then move to Windows but they keep updating the controls so it's definitely got better).
There's something about Mural that I don't quite like and haven't taken to tbh.

What do you dislike about the product?
Probably that it's geared towards Mac users first and Windows users second (just with the use of a trackpad etc).
Maybe some better testing on different devices and set-ups .

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Collaboration for sure. Collating information in one place that isn't a word document or hidden file somewhere.
Really like being able to add people to a board and having them be able to see the information.

In a time of remote teams and meetings, this is a must have.
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to use, relatively simple to understand for new starters, this tool includes an interactive whiteboard, sticky notes, possibilities for presentation, interactive discussions (with camera), voting on topics, timing, and so much more. It is, IMHO, a fantastic tool for team meetings as well as decision makings. I use it for teaching as well as for interactive workshops, usually in combination with a tool like Zoom, MS Teams, or others.
What do you dislike about the product?
A standard, quick video explaining how to use the tool would be useful for first-time users. I have created my own to explain it, but I'm sure the Miro team could do a better one :-)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
For some 25 years, I have been lecturing and facilitating workshops in public. When I started, we used sheets of plastic and an overhead projector, then we moved on to tools like PowerPoint and others. Today, since the 2020 pandemic, we live in a world where more (everything?) needs to be done online - this means that flipcharts, whiteboards, and face-to-face interaction has dropped off and needs to be replaced with something providing the same facilities as being in the same conference room. That is where Miro comes in, bringing team work firmly into the next phase of life.
An easy tool to organize your ideas and share in just one click!
What do you like best about the product?
The frames, the easy to use templates and all the different ways you can organize texts with stickys, text boxes etc . Frames let me keep different ideas separate.
What do you dislike about the product?
May be the zoom in and zoom out which is not done the same way on different devices. I also feel there should be a way to hide the vertical panel just like the horizontal one.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ideas make a lot more sense when they are put on miro. I am a UX designer and research is an integral part of my work. I feel it so easy to put the customer journeys, personas and all the other research elements in just one board and then analyze them as a whole.
Miro for me is the online collaboration facilitation tool
What do you like best about the product?
Realtime, all the time, content & feedback gathering visually displayed, grouped/related in any way. Process mapping. Screenshots, msSuite. Very pragmatic; and continually improving.
What do you dislike about the product?
They have very good tutorials, but they are not available in Dutch. They have chosen to use the community to set up and share templates from experience, which is very nice but I would like to have a template exercise for on the board for beginners which is updated when new functionality is introduced.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
- mapping, understanding & improving processen with workteams & teamleads
- strategy forming sessions
- facilitation of improvement sessions
- meeting facilitation (agenda, actions, etc)

Customised space to work and create
What do you like best about the product?
I love how I can create customized designs according to my needs. I also love the available ready-made templates, and I can use them if I don't know where I want to begin.
What do you dislike about the product?
There's not much I dislike about the website. I like all the features. My manager and I also used the video call feature, which was very clear, and it was pretty surprising.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am editing a framework for our pre-existing online course, and I present the data that was already there and add to it as needed. So, I need a lot of flexibility.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Voting icons can be more significant. They're hard to be seen sometimes.
I still haven't found the reason why I cannot use my desktop app. It wasn't easy to use, so I had postponed it to some other time when I was free.

Best personalization tool/platform
What do you like best about the product?
The best part about this platform is its wide of variety of features, whether it's the infinite canvas or the workflow integration, it helps a lot in brainstorming and ideation.
What do you dislike about the product?
As for now, there is nothing that I dislike about the platform but still, there is a bit of scope of Improvement on the UI/UX part. Also, if they can add the content calendar would be a plus.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am easily able to coordinate with my team on different projects and also ideate and brainstorm by centralizing all the communication via miro, the digital workspaces are Indeed awesome!
