Super useful app I always needed

  • November 11, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like that I can organize my thoughts in a natural manner.
I like that I can collect all types of information in one visual place.
I like its templates.
I like that I can present and share the board with my clients and coworkers.
I like that I can sketch inside the board and make notes with stickers.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes when the board is heavy loaded, it takes time to open it. It takes time to generate the images.
I don't like it when I want to connect an arrow on someplace on a large image; it jumps to one of its borders. But I can understand why it happens, and there are a few tricks to overcome it, like placing an additional object on top of the image and then connecting the arrow to this object.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use MIRO for all my design processes. I collect all the information needed for the project on the board; I make the suitable composition of this information. I place there all the visual outputs of my work. It makes it easy to control the chaotic process of creation. And I don't need all these physical whiteboards that I had.

Amazing collaboration tool

  • November 10, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Miro has been my go-to tool during COVID. It has the best and most stable tool to date to help facilitate online collaboration. It has been game-changing in helping visual ideas and thoughts. I love the versatility of Miro!
What do you dislike about the product?
While I love using this Miro, I find navigating around the board an opportunity for improvement. What I mean by this is that most of the time when I navigate around, it is fine but. However, there are times where I am simply trying to navigate around the board, it doesn't pick up what I am trying to do so I am accidentally moving things around when. This is easily managed via the "un-do" action and then changing the cursor behavior. Another workaround would be to lock objects, etc.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro is great in helping confirm that everyone is on the same page with an idea, problem or solution. Being able to work through this visually has been a huge help. I use Miro to facilitate workshops or as a presentation tool. I also use Miro as a way to just work through something I have in my head in a visual way.

I'm a visual person so Miro has been massive in helping my communicate what I need to in a visual manner which helps me confirm that everyone is on the same page.

The best option I've used to replace sticky notes virtually

  • November 10, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Miro lets us choose the ways we want to collaborate, either based on templates or freely laying out our stickies or other objects. of which there are many. Whether it's just collating ideas, or a complex connected workflow diagram, we find ourselves using Miro now for most of our interactive sessions.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can sometimes be tricky to make things look easy to scan, as the text sizes can be difficult to control. Also, people often inadvertently move items around before they realise they can lock them.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
First and foremost, with working from home, Miro has been an absolute lifesaver with the workshops and interactive group activities we carry out. It's enabled us to visually represent and share our strategies, operations and ideas in a way we couldn't before, and the commenting and additional features - such as the timer - are a bonus when we're working together to solve a problem

Power Collaboration and Process Creation Tool

  • November 10, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love how easy it is to use Miro. It's my first time working with it, and it's very intuitive. I could build jam boards, process maps, and general collaboration tools. It's been a great experience so far!
What do you dislike about the product?
There's nothing much to say, and I honestly feel the tool is excellent! The ability to create frames and separate portions of processes could be a little bit better explained, but nothing that takes away from the user experience.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helped me to build frameworks to improve my operations and also helped me to register and deep dive into my processes to quickly identify bottlenecks and areas of opportunity. I also love how Miro integrates to confluence to build visual and efficient wiki pages
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Explore it! It's a fantastic tool, and you should try using it for multiple purposes. Don't strictly stick to collaboration whiteboards, but also try to use Miro for process mapping, building frameworks, and integrating with other tools such as confluence!

Using Miro as a UX designer for a large financial institution

  • November 10, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
onboarding is easy
commands are easy to learn and to follow
it's reliable, doesn't crush, never lots anything
it's great for collaborating with others
It's flexible, allows experimentation
it looks good
good community with references
always releasing new features
What do you dislike about the product?
lack of integration with other tools, like JIRA and sketch,
files can't be categorized within a project or outside the project within the organziation,
lack of search optimization, can't search for content in different boards or within a board,
the background color can't be changed for the board
it's hard to export files from miro for documentation
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
collaborating with others, specially non designers, planning, sprint reviews, project planning. Allows easy collaboration and participation. This organization has a long tradition with PowerPoint still, and from the design team, we push to have presentations in Miro. It is easy and beautiful to create participant engagement in Miro, impossible to do it in Powerpoint.

A very useful tool for workshops and trainings

  • November 10, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Nearly infinite space, accessible to partners and trainees. Endless possibilities to organize your content. A useful tool indeed!
What do you dislike about the product?
The ramp-up for new users; the possibility to have short intro videos also in French; and sometimes, as boards become heavier (with a lot of elements), the limitations of speed in charging/moving the board around
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Using it to train conservationists in the Conservation Standards and to organize and manage meetings to evaluate projects and design new ones. It works better than a real paper board. All is recorded, easily transformable into pdf or images. I think I will use it once we go back to in-person meetings ;)
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is really a good and complete solution for online group work

Miro even makes collaborating easier at home!

  • November 10, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love the way you can see what other people are doing as they are working. It's like being gathered around a whiteboard but without the awkward elbowing and struggling to read handwriting.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it can be slow to open a board so I think it needs a fairly powerful computer to run well. I also occasionally lose the button i need to do seomthing in the UI.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's really easy to conduct complicated idea sharing or brainstorming type workshops remotely using Miro. I'd say it's even better than working in the traditional way because you can all see well, zoom in as required and read the text.

Creativity suitable for all

  • November 10, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
An endless virtual whiteboard for discussing visual projects by adding any kind of object and file with all your creativity.
You can easily take notes on sticky notes and comment in mini-chat. You can create presentations, prototypes, CJ/CX map and share and co-work with your colleagues from anywhere in the world.
It is very user-friendly from begininning and you have a lot of templates.
What do you dislike about the product?
It could be useful (for now) to add some new features as:
- connector line jumps (like in Visio workflows);
- folders to manage different versioning of a board;
- a document management approach
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Miro with my colleagues (we are almost 120 users) and for now it is a powerful way to share our creativity on our projects without to share a lot of documents.
The endless whiteboard allows to have an E2E vision on our processes (in particular on CJ Maps and Prototypes) and it is easy to share in our meetings and co-creation brainstorming.
The user friendly graphic allows to everyone to focus on contents by inspiring his/her creativity

Miro for Marketing

  • November 10, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love the boards and all the features tagged along. My priority tasks usually consist of creating mockups and passing them over to designers meaning that I need tools to present and pitch my creative ideas. Miro has everything for my vision to be captured correctly.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes when the Miro desk contains too many elements, it can load slower than usually
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
1. Marketing pitches
2. Mockups creation
3. Video calls with my colleagues on the board we need to discuss - no jumping from tool to tool
4. Brainstorming ideas and their visualization
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Miro is easy to pick up even if it's a whole new product for you. For me, it's a great digital tool to unleash my creativity and present my vision. I think Miro will suit anybody who seeks ways to get on the same page with a team and colleagues in a digital environment.

Miro board is very interactive and easy to put all your thoughts onto a board, I love the aesthetic.

  • November 10, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I wanted to brainstorm with my team, have my visions put most colorfully pleasing way, and I have found that the Miro board is the perfect platform for it. I love the look and feel of the board. It makes the writing and editing quick and easy. The adding images features give an extra brief into the point that you are trying to put across.
What do you dislike about the product?
I sometimes want to zoom out farther away, which would be a more excellent addition to the board since it is an infinite canvas.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I try creating user journeys for our product, and I give access to my contractor to give them a better idea of my vision. This helps everyone involved, and in my experience, I have not found a platform as interactive as Miro board for that.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use stickers to write your thoughts
Organize it in a way that gives a good overview
use images to depict your vision
