Miro is a great tool for collaboration and ideation
What do you like best about the product?
I can use it for facilitating workshops and the tools for collaboration are very versatile. Also, I'm happy with the AI integration that allow us to cluster concepts by keywords. It's quite good not only for facilitation but for organising other type of data like verbatims from interviews.
Besides of collaoration, I use it for solo ideation when kickstarting projects and for mindmapping.

What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes I have to facilitate workshops where not everyone has access to the tool, and it's quite challenging for them to just to use the comment feature. The basic mode could have some sort of integration for this cases.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm a very visual person so it's a great way to display all data and how each concept relates with each other. It helps me a lot also to put together different elements (benchmark, wireframes, visual data) to show a bigger concept to different stakeholders, and to have them in the same space to make a workshop together.
The IA feature helps me organize data by key concepts easily.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
I recommend it to cross-functional teams, especially if they involve designers and other stakeholders, also to conduct workshops.
Miro is a game changer
What do you like best about the product?
Miro changed the way we have our daily meetings and ideation sessions. The collaboration features provides freedom to the users. The possibility to bring everyone to your viewpoint is great. Besides it, even when working solo, it is a great tool, because it allows you something close to the feeling of a blank paper sheet.
What do you dislike about the product?
We lack something like formulas on spreadsheets. It would be interesting to insert tables inside table cells, to give you the freedom to zoom in for more details inside a specific cell. Another thing nice would be to use scales to measure drawings, more pencil, brushes and color options, and the possibility to insert xreferenced 3d models (sketchup, bim...). The exporting tool could allow you to choose which sheets to make pdf. It could be something odd, but having a tool that could simulate dice throwing would be useful for contests. Another nice addition could be the possibility to play background music, and audio effects to call someone in particular, or everybody.Play videos on the board. Hide and reveal parts of the board, something like dynamic light centered on each user cursor. The possibility to export the mind maps.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Visual planning, meeting support, ideation sessions, dashboard with Google sheets xreferenced files, basic image edition, social media content planning, creating backlog for activities, creating moodboards for every new project with image references, links to videos, links to external sites to ring additional information related to the content we are working on, agenda for meetings and to keep contacts, relating them.
We started using Miro for remote collaborative work, now we cannot work without it
What do you like best about the product?
Our team was already using Miro prior to the lockdown, but just for brainstorming sessions.
When the lockdown came, we decided that Miro would be a good software to help with remote collaboration. And we were so right. We started to explore the capabilities of the platform and every week we would discover new ways that Miro could help us work better as a team.
Right now, Miro is the main software for every project we manage.
It solves multiple use-cases, from brainstorming to planning, from strategy to prototyping.
We've also reduced the use of other tools because Miro replaced them for the most part; this highly increased productivity since we now have a centralized place for everything related to each project.

What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes Miro feels too heavy on loading times and computer CPU, it's almost impossible to have 2 open boards at the same time.
The windows installable app is highly instable and crashes frequently.
One feature that is still underdeveloped is the mindmap tool that compares poorly to other standalone mindmap tools, we hope a future release would improve this feature.
The audio/video features work ok for up to 4 people, above that we tend to switch to another conference platform.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Miro for business model canvas, brand sprints, brainstorming sessions, agile management, weekly and monthly planning, prototyping landing pages and apps, basically we use it for everything project related. It's the main repository for everything related to each project.
The default templates and Miroverse (templates from the community) are a goldmine to increase our efficiency and creativity. We've discovered many new exercises, frameworks, and canvas that we didn't knew about. That allowed us to solve problems and collaborate in many different ways.
Inspired by the Miroverse templates, we are now also developing our own repository of templates that we came up with.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
At first, Miro seems to have a high learning curve since it solves so many different use-cases. Try to start just by exploring with brainstorming features and post-it to get comfortable with it. Pretty soon, you and your team will feel comfortable exploring the templates and understand the many use-cases available to simplify your team work.
Great for remote working! Great for collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
I couldn't be without Miro now! I am a visual thinker, so it helps with my personal projects as well as (of course) collaboration. Brilliant for show casing and collaborating on UX designs, for analysing user research data, for workshops and for journey mapping. All in all an indispensible digital tool!
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing really. Miro is great. I can't think of a thing I dislike.

What do you like best about the product?
The Zoom in Zoom out and the space bar option.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some options can be confusing and I'd love a better Kaban tool !
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Brainstorming with our team and being able to present very easily.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try it out and take your time.
Great collaboration tool!
What do you like best about the product?
I love the ability to create notes, ideas, collect and arrange photos and files all in 1 place while collaborating with my teammates, especially during these semi-remote times of COVID.
What do you dislike about the product?
No custom color options for sticky notes
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
If anything, it's solved the challenge of multiple people being in different locations who need to collaborate together.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Miro is an easy-to-use and reasonably priced collaboration tool for many uses.
It's been an incredible asset for my team and me to ideate intelligently and effectively!

Miro is amazeballs
What do you like best about the product?
Being able to collaborate in these remote times effectively has been top of mind for our teams. Miro stood out among the various solutions due to its ease of use, its rich feature set, and the beneficial and insightful Miro community.
What do you dislike about the product?
Overall, there's nothing I dislike about it. Very heavy boards can be a little slow at times, but I feel like that is more related to network bandwidth rather than Miro platform performance.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Online/Remote collaboration was the key driver for our investment in Miro. It has definitely aided us to respond more quickly to change and to rapidly align our teams on those changes.
Miro Whiteboard is almost indispensable now for our Team Collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
Simplicity, sharability and affordability. The Miro board is really quite intuitive to use and a great way to share and present ideas and reports.
For a fairly minimum subscription you can also allow your colleagues to comment and alter your Boards. We have begun to use it regularly for committe meetings where all of the materials and links can be prepared in advance on the Board and maintained there for those who didn't make it to the meeting!
I also love the ease with which we can create links, images, and resource folders.

What do you dislike about the product?
That I hadn't discovered it earlier.
It's hard to find fault actually and some of my comments might only illustrate my complete ignorance of the technology.
Could there be a way of 'running' a Powerpoint file within the Board?

Helps me gather my thoughts and resources in one place..
It provides a fantastic platform for working in a Team that is scattered - and particularly in creating a useful space for having meetings.
It's a great way for collaborating with colleagues across digital space.

I haven't found anything remotely as good.
Collaborative platform that continues to evolve... but not always in a good way
What do you like best about the product?
The most important thing for us is that the platform serves our needs and client needs. We design and build workflows with our clients to deliver critical results. We are very visual in our board development; Miro allows us to serve not just workflows, but images and objects which prime clients cognitively. We also have access to tools that increase collaboration for clients to make decisions. There is also a strong community of contributors for workflow objects.
What do you dislike about the product?
I absolutely hated the New Year's present with button reassignment... Still aggravating and always will be... Simply said, it contradicts how most software is being used. Flip back and forth with software which Miro's prior button assign worked well. I use Miro daily and I still can't get used to using it the way it is now. The development team should have made this an option, not force users to use their software in such an unintuitive way.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We migrated from Nureva's platform last year; we worked directly with them as we were their most sophisticated users. We had many in-person meetings with them and worked with their development team as well as senior leaders. When Nureva decided to abandon their platform, Miro was one of 2 suggestions. As we moved into the Miro platform, we immediately realized that it is a much more mature product that allows us to do so much more on so many levels. The primary benefits have been around space vertically and horizontally, as well as much more flexibility in designing right on the board. The most important feature is the ability to create templates which, as we continue to develop, allows us to streamline workflow and save so much time. I would also suggest that someone from the Miro team connect directly with us to see how we are pushing the boundaries on their platform.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
We haven't found a better collaborative platform that meets our needs; we work with our clients, and our clients adopt using Miro as part of moving their work forward after we leave. Part of what we leave with our clients is the ability to do the work we do and leave them with our intellectual property, which is housed in Miro. When you go into Miro, look through the Miroverse and templates to see what is there to give you ideas on effectively using the platform. Go to the learning videos to kickstart using Miro.
A fantastic tool
What do you like best about the product?
The easy way to order your ideas in diagrams and able to do brainstorming
What do you dislike about the product?
The limitation in the number of projects you can create
