MIro is THE collaboration for technical teams in the new WFH and offshore era
What do you like best about the product?
Miro's workspace is infinite. It has every type of template for mapping, ideation, notes, diagramming, etc., AND, best of all, the arrow connectors work between every type of diagram - genius. As soon as we get approval to move to the corp plan, we're looking forward to integrating with Jira - I've always disliked Jira for its poor handling of diagrams and sketches. Now we will be able to move the requirements out to Mira and track the stories in Jira. The Mira 3 boards trial has made it possible for us to work with the tool extensively, including testing Teams integration, Kanban, etc.
What do you dislike about the product?
It seems to be missing some generic icons for networking and apps such as servers, switches, and databases (yes, there are various packages for Cisco, AWS, Azure, etc., just no generics.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Before I was always creating maps and diagrams on my Mac during calls with my offshore team - the problem was I'm the only Mac user - so no one else could interact. There are no Windows tools that work as fast as Mac tools in this space (i have both machines for work). Now my entire team can create and collaborate visually as well as create reference documents that are more easily accessible than Sharepoint
Recommendations to others considering the product:
There are a lot of collaboration tools available. If you and your team think & communicate visually, have both logical and abstract thoughts, or handing off to different timezones, as my teams do....this is it. For us, having Jira integration wasn't a must, but it was the icing on the cake. The template options are expansive AND very useful. We can go from a brainstorm concept to something valuable in a matter of mins compared to using a whiteboard option or powerpoint.
The best virtual whiteboarding tool I’ve found!
What do you like best about the product?
Simple, clean interface - aesthetically, it’s beautiful. And the team is adding the right functionality in time.
What do you dislike about the product?
You fixed my dislike! Although it would be great to integrate with Spotify so power facilitators can use their own curated playlists for workshops.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
How to mimic an in-person collaboration session with highly-visual artifacts. We use it to ideate and select options for our product ideas
High performance collaboration with customer and team members in discussion.
What do you like best about the product?
Paste image and we can add post-it or comments.
KANBAN is also useful!
KANBAN is also useful!
What do you dislike about the product?
It's better to be able to see card info while someone is editting.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In COVID-19 situation, we could made high performance collaboration remotely!
Wider field than google jamboard is the benefit.

Excellent collaboration tool for PI planning activities
What do you like best about the product?
Simple and intuitive interface, easy to follow
What do you dislike about the product?
limits imposed on non enterprise version
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Very intuitive tool for PI planning activity....we got the tool just few says before starting the PI planning and everyone was so skeptical about using it at first but for our surprise the moment we started using it, we were able to use it very effectively for the PI planning.....the best part if it has all elements of physical PI planning activities available online....very very useful tool.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Very useful tool for PI planning...highly recommended....full potential can be seen in enterprise edition where you get plugins to integrate with JIRA tool as well....very simple and effective tool.
Miro gives you the power to focus on your challenge, brainstorm to collaborate and jump forward.
What do you like best about the product?
Miro provides a canvas for quickly visualizing challenges, brainstorm ideas, and work with teams to capture, illustrate, document, and jump forward on a project. As a designer, I love that miro does not get in the way, it provides a simple way to grab assets onto a board, add comments, stickies, draw on top of to quickly capture an idea and then share, download or invite a team to view, contribute or provide feedback. I can share a link with a team member and they are able to jump in via a browser, the app, or on a mobile device.
What do you dislike about the product?
When you first jump in, the double click or triple-click that is required to select or switch to an editing mode.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Everything!
Quickly brainstorming a new concept.
Capturing notes during a brainstorming session.
Reviewing concepts and options.
Facilitating design team activities.
Working thru a challenge or idea.

Realtime collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
Realtime collaboration, anytime, anywhere.
What do you dislike about the product?
• It can be a bit intimidating for less tech-savvy.
• While constant change is good, it can be frustrating when features disappear or change.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro has transformed the way our software delivery team interacts with other IT teams and our business partners. With all of the teams working in different systems, Miro has given us one place to meet; where we can all collaborate in realtime to both visualize the business problems & solutions.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Sign up for a free account and try it out - you have nothing to lose! You can search the Miroverse template site for a board that can help you learn a bit more about here - here's one: https://miro.com/miroverse/category/newly-added/getting-to-know-miro/
Great tool! My team uses it all the time for brainstorming exercises!
What do you like best about the product?
Great collaborative tool. Very intuitive to use with sticky notes and different templates available.
What do you dislike about the product?
The organization of the miro board, it's not easy to move tab to tab especially when I have many tabs open. It would be great if it works like the chrome tabs where I can use the keyboard to switch tabs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro is solving the challenge of visual collaboration, especially for distributed teams. It really helps us in translating complex ideas and workflows into something everyone could understand and contribute to during virtual meetings. I personally use it as a quick documentation and feedback collection tool as well. Easy to copy and paste product screenshot and add comments.
Best tool for digital pinups and creative timelines
What do you like best about the product?
Miro lets you see everything you want to at once and lets you edit it in real-time, super easily. For studio projects, group and individual, I have created displays upon displays of work with images, texts, videos, and links, with absolutely no problem. I am convinced there is no better product for this service.
What do you dislike about the product?
Exporting sections of Miro can get a little bit difficult if you have such large boards with so much content.This may not be possible, or may have since been implemented without me knowing, but it would be nice if Miro boards would keep a running list of the corresponding files on your laptop, or even update in real-time. like Adobe is able to do with special objects.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro has helped my creative process in model building and additional exploration as an architecture student. I can record any tangents I choose to investigate, from varying graphic representations of models to the work of artists covered in studio. Miro also makes casually sharing things digitally possible. I don't have to create a final set of pinup boards to share what I'm doing.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I think Miro is a valuable product when working between physical and digital mediums. I think Miro is best used as a. tool for both visualization and documentation of things that may not otherwise be simultaneously viewable– keeping up with documents and digital versions/scans however is really important to perfect this sort of work flow.
Very helpful online collaboration tool
What do you like best about the product?
Ability to collaborate online with "whiteboards", text entry, comments, chat, brainstorming, etc.
Very helpful vs. in-person to reduce travel expenses, include others around the world in different time zones, minimize language barrier challenges, etc.

What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes confusing to know where you are on overall large board as well as how to use product.
Definitely suggest doing a training session prior to 1st use.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
On-line collaboration (due to COVID, reduced travel expense, travel time availability, etc.) as well as include various time zones
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Works really well for on-line collaboration, whiteboarding, brainstorming/design sessions, and documentation of output.
Captures all notes and input on huge board and allows easy zooming to specific sections.
Quick on-boarding process.

Miro is now a critical tool for the way my team collaborates
What do you like best about the product?
I love the flexibility Miro provides -- from allowing my team to quickly spin up a board for tangible collaboration to developing a highly designed, creative workspace for customer workshops. And the ability to bring in some many kinds of media is awesome. My favorite may be the ability to link a deck and auto-magically populate individual thumbnails.
What do you dislike about the product?
I am hoping Miro provides more board owner controls, e.g., only the author can move content, backgrounds are designed and set and cannot be moved around, and MUCH more choice in fonts, etc.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are solving the need to share tangible content with customers to co-create solutions and make decisions quickly. Miro is indispensable for helping our creative team quickly share ideas, plan projects, prototype concepts, and test and shape them with end-users.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Take time to watch the terrific how-to videos, dive in and try it out with an internal team meeting, make sure everyone understands to LOCK content and use frames and to NOT unlock content.
