Easy, more intuitive way to get organized

  • June 30, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The best part about Miro is the visual aspect and the ability to create and easily understand steps all laid out on one board. Miro works like my brain works, instead of forcing my brain to work in a way that is not natural or intuitive. The templates are also excellent! Miro provides creative templates that are super helpful that I wouldn't have come up with by myself but definitely make the work flow way better.
What do you dislike about the product?
You have to drink the kool aide. Team members who don't 'have time' or 'want to' learn a new software program cannot collaborate and add value. Although my work is much better, easier and more fun for me, I still have to make old school lists if I want to work with others who don't use Miro.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Staying more organized. Plus I can more easily see and anticipate obstacles before they happen with a Miro board.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Take the extra time you need in the beginning to learn the program. It'll save so much time later on!

Excellent tool for cross-functional collaboration!

  • June 30, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love that miro is the ultimate app for collaborating with multiple teams. The days of individually editing separate documents and sending them to colleagues are over. Everyone can work simultaneously and contribute to production in realtime.
What do you dislike about the product?
The inability to delete boards. For example, even the admins can't delete empty "My First" boards or boards that are no longer needed. They must be deleted by the person that created the board and if that person is no longer with the company nothing can be done about it. In the end, it creates a lot of unnecessary clutter.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our collaboration as a team, as well as our collaboration in multiple departments has increased exponentially and meetings have become more productive and inclusive.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you work within a team based environment, get Miro. Once you do, you might find yourself reminiscing about the before times and wonder how you made it this far without it.

We'll want to continue using Miro even when we're back in the office.

  • June 30, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's a fantastic way to create mood boards, have discussions, workshops, problem-solving, etc. Honestly, it's been such an amazing tool during the pandemic and working from home. So much that we've already discussed, we'll probably continue using Miro when we're back in the office (although that itself might be a little bit of a challenge since we're not sure if we'll just have to huddle around one person's monitor.) The best part of this is that you can create, edit, delete parts as you go without worrying about running out of post-it notes!
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't think there are any significant downsides to Miro. It's a very polished tool - we haven't run into any bugs nor downtimes. It's always been up and running. I've submitted a few minor improvements, such as the ability to assign more than 1 person to the 'task' card feature.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We've used Miro both as workshops to kick off projects but also as discussions for the overall team structure and working process. I think it has helped us improve ourselves in those areas. It's a lot easier to pick a project back up without having to look through scribbled notes.

Great tool for UxR analysis and collaborative work

  • June 30, 2021

What do you like best about the product?
The easiness of use, the customization of all the elements (colours, shapes, arrows, etc.), nice visual. The easiness of use, the customization of all the elements (colours, shapes etc.), nice visual .
What do you dislike about the product?
Tag feature is not very helpful as there is no way to sort or filter by tags and basically not very helpful just search by tags and not being able to play with them (would use google spreadsheet for tagging or coding info).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I conduct an analysis for a UX research project using Miro, it's very helpful as it looks clear and easy for stakeholders and it's convenient to map and play with data points we have from our studies. Besides, it's very helpful to work on analysis or workshop collaboratively with other team members.

Uniquely flexible platform for simultaneous collaboration

  • June 29, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I am still finding ways to use all the flexible features afforded by the Miro platform. I appreciate the ability to involve my team members without the need for additional licenses, and the desktop app is also well done. Although I'm pretty new to using Miro, the library of ready templates has gotten me started for every single use case I've required to date. Kudos !
What do you dislike about the product?
Despite it providing the majority of the basic functionalities, as I am maturing in my usage of the platform, the free version is rather restricted (as one might expect). So be ready to quickly outgrow the free version and contemplate one of the paid options.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The main challenge for which I'm solving is brainstorming online simultaneously with my team members on developing process flows, wire diagrams (for websites), presentation documents, and other such business documents.

Hands down my favourite tool for thinking and collaborating as a PM

  • June 29, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
An extremely intuitive tool that suits .
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing currently to note as it is good.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro is my daily thinking and collaboration tool. Being so intuitive, I can shape my ideas precisely as I want to in the smoothest way possible. Visually doing it just makes it so much clearer in my head and for everyone, I collaborate with. It's honestly better at visually representing my ideas than if I had a pen and paper. There is no friction in how I use Miro for my needs, and the general aesthetics of Miro is very pleasing as well.

In terms of collaboration, I am so impressed by how easy it is to have a large audience (say more than 10 users) work together on a Miro board, which makes workshops so much easier to host, in fact, probably better than had we done a workshop in-person.

I've used their integration as well, especially the Slack and Notion integration which are also regular tools I use

In addition, I regularly see feature updates by Miro quite often, another point that shows the team do not rest on their laurels and always try to make it better, even though I have absolutely no complaints about it.

Miro as a product and a company should definitely be a leader in the software industry because it is just that good. They truly cover the macro and micro details in how they build the product.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you need to think more clearly and work with others, regardless of your position, do consider using Miro above all other tools. It's better than actually drawing on paper to visualise ideas and it is better than using Word doc to gather requirements

Miro - The largest whiteboard ever!

  • June 29, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love the space that Moiro gives me to whiteboard out everything I need.
It has so many templates to suit my business needs, I can work remotely and collaborate with colleagues and it feels like we are having a whiteboarding session in the office.
I can also use Miro for process mapping with so much space - Miro has made other mapping tools redundant for me!
What do you dislike about the product?
I sometimes move stuff I didn't intend to - that is the only flaw - but the undo button sorts that out :D
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am using Miro for software development projects, including: user story mapping, general brainstorming, sprint planning kanbans, process flows
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Give it a try - It's free for 2 boards. You only need a subscription if you need more boards

Best solution to collaborative thinking and designing

  • June 29, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Easy-going and friendly no matter with who you share your board. Every time we use it, our ending phrase is "it feels like working together in the same place." We have a test for many different projects and activities, e.g., Customer Journeys, Hackatones, UX design, and everyone has succeeded. It became one of our daily basis tools, and we also have been able to integrate it with our MS Teams suite
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes guests do not realize how to put their name while registering on the log-in phase. Sometimes, it is hard for the moderator to identify who is who, or it takes some minutes of the meeting to explain how to do it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We solve our design sessions. We used to work together in the same room, coming up with ways to solve processes, interfaces, UX design, and today we change that with our MIRO boards. It also gives us the possibility of working offline, adapting our timetable to the current COVID time, and place restrictions

Miro has saved our product team in the last year!

  • June 25, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I was using Miro prior to this crazy pandemic but in the last year it has provided an incredible amount of value to our ways of working. How do we onboard new employees? How do you host engaging workshops without the tactile use of post-its and whiteboards(and biscuits!)? How do you keep a team aligned and maintain a single source of truth throughout projects? How do you socialise?! These are all problems that were effortlessly solved through Miros guidance and community, enabling the team and myself to create a shared spaces within seconds. Templates have been a lifesaver and provided a great starting point for almost anything you can think of and I no longer see Miro as a 'virtual whiteboard' but more of the ultimate collaboration tool. No more digitising what you once had to photograph and transcribe all over again. No more covering whiteboards with an exclaimed note to the cleaner: 'PLEASE DON'T RUB OUT!'. No more running out of space or picking up dried-out markers before the hunt begins to find anything other than a pink sharpie. Miro is quick, it's easy and it's here to stay.
What do you dislike about the product?
One thing I've really loved is the community on Miro. I would love to see more visibility of what others in the industry are doing. Talks. Videos. More content to drool over as soon as I open up Miro. How can I be even better at what I'm doing? What's hot right now? What methods are other companies doing to get the most from their employees and counterparts - this is where the value is for me.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
• Quickly jotting down ideas as a group or individual
• Managing my own output and balancing projects
• Creation of clear opportunity trees that can be quickly shared, commented and curated
• Kick off meetings; team alignment by sharing previous research
• Workshops - Ideation
• Creating our own templates that can speed up sand save valuable hours

Miro: A fantastic tools for education and remote collaboration work

  • June 25, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
use miro for teaching, discussion and remote work.
MIro provides a lot of useful templates. The most important thing is that its user interface is very intuitive and simple, so I don't need to spend more time to familiarize students with the tools during the teaching process.
In addition, being able to use Chinese well is also a big advantage of miro.

In the current process of using miro, about 50 people are working together online at the same time. The use situation is smooth without too much delay, which shows that the software engine design is excellent.

The best part is that miro's close integration with a lot of online applications allows miro's discussion results to be directly transferred to project management or time management tools, which helps to organize and track meeting results.
What do you dislike about the product?
Miro doesn't have too many shortcomings. I really want to say that there is the choice of Chinese fonts. If you can freely include a variety of Chinese fonts in the font selection, it will be a big advantage for the Chinese market.

In addition, in terms of multi-platform support, the mobile app is still not so easy to use. I know this is a limitation, but. Many students and customers, if they can have a better user experience when they only have mobile phones, it should be more perfect.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Teaching:
It is used to teach design thinking courses and project management courses. The original templates inside have saved me a lot of preparation time. Especially for distance courses, this tool has improved the traditional teaching methods a lot. At the same time, online collaboration also makes students less distracted. I can observe each student's situation on the template.

At work:
Used as a tool for discussing topics. Through the existing work review template, you can discuss work progress with colleagues when you go to work remotely, and adopt visual management, which saves more errors.

Personally:
It is used to record learning knowledge points, through the use of mind maps, to record learning knowledge. Since MIRO's whiteboard can be extended, it can be quickly recorded and connected.
Since Miro has very good graphical tools and many supporting software, it can integrate almost all tasks on it.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Maybe Chinese culture will be a direction.

In particular, there are a lot of Chinese users. If the Chinese interface or Chinese fonts can be supported, it will be more suitable for the education market in the Chinese region.
