Very useful tool for online collaboration and facilitation

  • May 11, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like the endless board the most, allowing my team and myself to span around complex projects. Miro helps us to visualize the steps of our endeavors, showing insight into different challenges and goals. The powerful visualization tools help me coordinate team efforts in my projects. I also really like tre "frames" option, when I lock them they provide a good structure to work on.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have purchased a "team" subscription plan, as I facilitate a team of two startup owners, plus their advisors. This plan is limited as it asks me to purchase additional licenses for everybody who wants to do more than comment on the board. Additionally, I've just seen that they now sell "$10 per member/month billed monthly", while I was charged 15$ just two weeks ago per member in this plan.
Also, I am not a big fan of constant reminders that something is new and that I should try it out every now and then.
Also, Miro does have a certain learning curve that should be follwed.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I've solved problems regarding visualization and coordination of project steps in my ongoing projects. Miro is mostly beneficial for online work and remote work.
In these times it is hard to collaborate while staying at home, and Miro really helps my clients and myself to get to the goals fast and with substantial motivation.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It would help if you tried it out. It does make a difference.

I love Miro; it does everything I need

  • May 11, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Miro's ease of use and clean, intuitive user interface set it apart from the competition. I love that it has web, macOS, and iOS apps that work great. Miro is always ahead of the curve with new and useful features that make remote workshopping nearly as easy and natural as in person.
What do you dislike about the product?
I haven't found any major issues with Miro. There are some features around presenting frames that could be improved so that Miro can replace PowerPoint or Keynote.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Miro to facilitate remote design team meetings and workshops. My clients prefer using Miro to the competition. I've also found that I'm using Miro more in my day-to-day work for personal brainstorming and planning removing the need for other software.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Miro just works. As a software designer, I can't find a lot to complain about. It does everything I need and integrates with the design tools I use.

It got everything I got for the workshops with my clients. I try to do sone Design Sprint excercise

  • May 11, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Its SUPER EASY to understand in just 2 minutes. Super intuitive for my clients to start using it. That a really plus for me. Also, there is no need for login, in 2 clicks my clients can be using Miro and in 2 minutes they are already experts
I can draw in a beautiful way all my thoughts and ideas and share it with people in my company or with clients. Visually is awesome. The era of powerpoint is over for me
What do you dislike about the product?
Its not very personalized and informal. That what I like about figjam, the got some cool themes, stickers, ways to use a sticky notes. Thats a +1 in the delightfulness of the product. In conclusion, Figjam is fun to use and Miro is only super useful
Also i dont like the lack of "emojiness" of the platform. In workshops I need to maintain people entertain, so I need resources for that, if the platform is too serious, people might get bored.
Maybe an Product Tour Onboarding might be super useful for any guest that enter my boards. Right now I have to add an personal onboarding chart to make them use miro before the workshop but that can be automated by the platform itself.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Design problems Its super useful for documentig in a visual way results and findings. I facilitate workshops and, contrary to a physical workshop, a remote one in Miro got everything documented. Also, people are tire of looking at powerpoints slides, Miro is a great visual change for my audience in terms of presentation
For example: I been working projects like "how to increase the digital usage of a product" or "how can be improved the customer experiencia in gas station". And in my boarda I add dashboards, study results, customer Journey Maps and much more
Right now Im working in the design of a new app for the medical field. A real challenge, but using tools like miro my clients trust that I know what Im doing
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I always make them do a couple of simple excercise just to know the basic of the platform and get ready to go

Great platform for collaboration and organization

  • May 11, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The collaboration tool is so good and easy to use in real time, you save time and boards are good looking, it has a great tutorial for first users and that way you can easily understand all the tools that miro has to offer. It also has a lot of templates with colorful options and when you are done, you can export your files
What do you dislike about the product?
If you don't name your boards they might get lost in your page, sometimes when you are logged in your main menu, there are no images to show you your previous work and you need to open every board to find just one, my recommendation is don't forget to name all of your boards
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I can organize my ideas in mind maps using the pre made boards, the platform has a tool that can order all of your work automatically and as I started using Miro, I saved lots of time by using that tool, it's so good.
Another tool that helped me a lot is the collaboration one, using that one made my work easier cause I interacted in real time with colleagues
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I think Miro is a great platform and has a lot of easy tools that you can use, it is colorful and collaboration tool is nice

The only space I need for visual collaboration

  • May 11, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The best thing about Miro is that I can kick off a workshop or a meeting with the team without any onboarding. It's easy to use for newcomers but heavy users might benefit from shortcuts and advanced tools. I also like the pace of how the Miro team is developing the product and making it even more powerful. The second thing I love about Miro is the speed. I have projects with hundreds of elements on the screen and it doesn't affect performance of the application both in app and on the web.
What do you dislike about the product?
A few minor things that I dislike about Miro are poorly designed arrows for diagramming, default color palette, and fonts. My deliverables are created in Miro, so I'd like to make them good looking and match the design system of my client. As for me, Figma has a better setup for that. Default templates are not that useful for me as well. And as long as Miro develops, it's getting cluttered with more features and tools.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As a consultant, I help companies to design better products and experiences. Miro helps me to set up a shared space to co-create with the team and to develop a shared vision about both the problem and possible solutions. The best thing about having a shared space for a design problem is that a few months later you can look back and connect the dots. I can clearly show to the team how the final results are connected with previous artifacts, insights and questions. This approach removes all the 'magic' from the design process and makes it comprehensible for non-designers as well.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I tried Mural, UXPressia, Figma Jam, and a few others tools for visual collaboration and opted for Miro. I work as a consultant, so my working setup is different from that of agency or in-house design teams. Think of your workflow with teammates when choosing a tool and check the pricing that fits your setup.

Great for develop ideas

  • May 11, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like the level of interaction that Miro allows for teamwork in real-time, which is very valuable when it comes to monitoring the collaborative work of my students. This platform is very visual; it helps the development of ideas and also to take into account the details of it.
What do you dislike about the product?
It seems that the feature of the cam in teamwork is just for the paid version, not sure about that. I used it as a trial for 14 days, and then when I create my educational account, it disappears from options. So far, I haven't found others downsides.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am working on understanding problems and developing research ideas with my students. I have found that using specific templates has helped them to focus their approaches and to be more detailed, and to take into account the relationship between the parts of a problem.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is an excellent tool for teamwork, highly recommend!

Explained to myself and others through visualisation

  • May 11, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I started using miro when completing a test assignment for a new product. It was difficult for me to grasp the whole idea of the product, so I created a cjm with miro's help and it helped me significantly in understaning everytying I needed. Plus it looked impressive too.
They have a nice webinar for new user. Very helpful
What do you dislike about the product?
After joining a new company, hard to find the team I was to join and the various boards. Plus loging out of a team also took a while to find. None of the templates actually helped me so it was easier to stat out from scrath in each of the boards that I created.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Understadning a product flow, a communicaton flow and visualizing it all in one place. After seeing it all in one place, it is easy to understand what clashes and needs improvement. Moreover, it's a great took to contastly return to when checking the user flow.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try it for process visualization and seeign how the work of different teams actually united into one.

The best collaboration tool on the market

  • May 11, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Miro is for me the best collaboration tool on the market. All the features are really well thought. I especially like the timer, the voting system, the ability to add comments. Everything is easy to use. When you are many on the same board, it does not seem to slow down. You can really collaborate and add elements to the board at the same time.
I also use it when I work alone. It is a great tool to organise my thoughts. Formatting is super easy and well thought through. Like how spaces and alignment are kept very neatly when you enlarge or reduce the size of multiple objects at the same time.

And Miro is also adding new valuable features all the time.

I use it multiple times per day and consider it the best tool for its purpose after having tried many others.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not much that I dislike. Some very minor things in the interface that I got to get used to. But nothing significant.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I can:
- Facilitate workshops online
- Collaborate to generate models, new ideas
- Brainstorm
- Use it at my Kanban board
- Design presentations

Great agile/team tool to drive engagement and productivity

  • May 11, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like the freedom in design, the templates, the ability to integrate into other systems. The ability to share and collaborate with peers, to get support thought leadership and solution design. I also like the ability to shift to presentation mode to drive consistency and remove rework into packs.

I love the way I can zoom in and out and track where others are on a pack, this helps when we are slightly distracted. Copying functions help me to quickly duplicate.

I like that I can import images and links that are visual and not just hyperlinks. Makes the platform a 1 stop shop.
What do you dislike about the product?
Grouping in templates, it would be easier if they were ungrouped or notification to say they were grouped. I would like to see improvement in the colour palets. Also sizing of objects like post it's are limited.

It's hard for a new user to intuitively use the platform. They get nervous when joining for the first time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Team effectiveness, ownership and moving faster. We are able to deliver programs without ambiguity, drive accountability and really make changes to better care of our Teams and Customers.

Bring the team together in ways they have been unable to do so in a virtual environment, particularly during covid.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would highly recommend Miro, it's fun, practicle and easy to use - with practice. Share with your teams, stakeholders and even the kids. We as an organisaton love the collaborative functions and the engagement/ownership applied. Have a crack, play around and utilise the templates, anything you want to do has alreayd been done before and you can be creative and plan/execute with ease.

It's important to note that all of the other tools like Asana / Trello have similar functionality build into this. It's a one stop shop.

Addicted! so many uses!

  • May 09, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Everything - flexibility, adaptability, embedded tools, visualization, collaboration, templates, communication, intuitive design for users (who don't have time to learn all the tutorials!) . I love that you can do mind mapping as well as brainstorming, wireframes, kanban and such a breadth of different activities and that you can communicate with each other throughout.
What do you dislike about the product?
Hardly anything! (but I never have time to learn all the ways to use it!). Occasionally, I'll see a certain template being advertised but then when I search for it (by the name in the email sent by Miro) I can't find it. That's a little confusing, but I have not yet asked for help so perhaps there is an easy remedy.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Problems solved: educational workshops to solve design problems and generate new design solutions, wireframe development to create new platforms, team planning and task tracking, group problem solving, keeping people engaged in long virtual meetings.
Benefits: accelerated progress, clear, shared understanding of issues and solutions (in an especially pleasing visual way), output to share and publicize easily, creativity (enhances people's ability to think and be creative), great for introverts who need more (or isolated) processing time before contributing - they can do it on their own time and not feel like they have to "speak up" in time with rest of group. Also, people can come back at any time and continue to add thoughts/content 24/7 which is great, especially when you have people contributing from all around the world.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It doesn't matter if you don't have time or don't feel comfortable with technology, Miro is so easy and intuitive to use that you will dive in and feel fine right away! You (or your collaborators) don't even need to log in or take that extra step if you're in a virtual meeting or workshop. The output is really great right away and you don't have to spend time reformatting, recreating, or anything before you use it in follow-up materials. The templates provided are just mind-boggling!! anything you need is there.
