Versatile Platform for Collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
The use cases are endless and I use Miro multiple times per week to review old work as well as organise new. I have used Miro boards for workshops, brainstorming ideas, retrospectives, and flow charts. Our organisation has people with very different backgrounds and everyone has found Miro easy to use and I like that it's possible to collaborate even outside your organisation. I also tested the new AI features which worked decently even for Finnish language. Results were in English, but I can live with that.
What do you dislike about the product?
User management could be easier. It's hard to manage users since there are board access, space access, and team access, and within those there are roles. I'm just hoping for the best. Also, it's painful to handle boards owned by a removed person. It should be possible to move them to anyone, because it can be their higher up or their follower who should own the boards after the person leaves, not just admins.
I wish I could collaborate with people outside my organisation without the extra cost if they already have an account and editor role in their own organisation. It would be easier to just invite them to specific boards and not to our team.
I also would love to see a folder structure where I could drop older unused boards to folders and keep the active boards visible. Other thing that bugs me is the dot voting where it isn't possible to add more dots so that each person would have their own colour. Luckily, I noticed by accident that the new participants feature allows people to drag and drop their own face dot so we used that in voting.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We work remotely and Miro allows us to collaborate and visualise our planning. It's nice to have everything in one place. Templates really help speeding up the beginning as that would usually be the most time consuming part to set up everything for the workshops.
A Decade of Collaborative Excellence with Miro
What do you like best about the product?
I have been using Miro for over ten years as a user experience designer, and I really appreciate its collaborative nature. It was one of the first tools that allowed our team to work remotely with ease, which was highly valuable. The setup process was very easy even from the start, and once on an enterprise level, sharing and collaborating became quite straightforward. Miro's simplicity stands out; features like Post-it notes, shapes for creating flows, and pre-built templates for journey maps are incredibly useful. These tools facilitate strategy building, journey mapping, and cross-functional collaboration with team members from product management, engineering, marketing, and sales, etc. Additionally, Miro serves as a crucial part of our discovery process, creating a collaborative environment where everyone, regardless of their expertise, can participate by sharing their ideas through Post-it notes or contributing content. The platform acts as a single source of truth, helping to arrange and browse through research visually, which is extremely valuable to our workflow. These aspects continually enhance our productivity and creativity as a team.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find the inability to efficiently copy and paste designs from Figma into Miro problematic. This limitation in integration disrupts my workflow, as I need to manually upload images, which is not as seamless as transferring designs directly. The lack of this feature is significant enough that it might lead us to consider switching to FigJam, which offers a more cohesive experience. I also find the way boards are organized to be cumbersome. Perhaps we need an Ops person to do some housekeeping, but in a large org, it is sometimes difficult to find files.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I find Miro establishes a single source of truth, simplifying collaboration and allowing anyone to contribute, regardless of design expertise, enhancing our discovery process.
Fantastic Templates & Easy to Use, But Frame Selection Can Be Tricky
What do you like best about the product?
Great range of templates. Embedded activity mode for Google meet calls. Its very simple to use
What do you dislike about the product?
I sometimes find i don't know what will be selected/moved when I try and move stuff inside frames
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Its a central location for all visual/graphical content and workshop exercises. Its quite nice to be able to dump everything for a given project on one board and not have to jump around between different tabs/documents.
Its a great colalboration tool for a mostly remote team

Essential for Remote Team Collaboration and Brainstorming
What do you like best about the product?
Miro makes it easier for me to collaborate with my team. Since everyone on my team works from home, it used to be difficult for us to work together on designing solutions. I use Miro to brainstorm ideas and create diagrams collaboratively with my team while everyone is working from home.
What do you dislike about the product?
I haven’t found anything I don’t like yet.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro helps solve the problem of remote collaboration in my team. Since everyone works from home, it used to be difficult for us to brainstorm, design solutions, and visualize ideas together. With Miro, we can easily share ideas in real time, create diagrams collaboratively, and stay aligned on projects. It makes teamwork smoother, more interactive, and much more productive
Flexible, always evolving and great collaborative tool
What do you like best about the product?
I use Miro every week and it has truly transformed the way I approach workflow mapping and planning visualization. I appreciate that there are constantly new features being introduced, each one enhancing its capabilities or making processes more efficient.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think Miro would really benefit from performance improvements. It works well enough with smaller boards, but when collaborating with larger teams, the boards can become massive and performance often suffers, making it hard to manage. I also notice that there is a steep initial learning curve, as it can be difficult to figure out what options are available and where to locate them. However, once you get the basics down, this becomes less of a problem.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This tool addresses the challenge of quickly iterating on resource allocation and workflow creation, mind mapping and more. While it's possible to do this on paper, moving elements around is difficult unless you use post-its, which can take up a lot of space. There are other online tools available, but they often lack the flexibility and quality of life features that this one provides. It also solves the collaboration challenges that emerged with the shift to remote work. With Miro, teams can easily collaborate in real time or asynchronously, regardless of their location.
Great for Visual Collaboration, But AI Customization Is Limited
What do you like best about the product?
Miro makes it easy to visually capture your ideas. It’s also a great tool for communicating your thoughts and outlining next steps to your team.
What do you dislike about the product?
The A.I. performs well, but there isn't much room for customization, and it tends to produce the same tables and flows each time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro is excellent for product management. Being able to visualize a roadmap and organize all the elements in one place really helps everything make sense. This approach leads to better estimation and greater accuracy in predicting when a product release will occur.
Fun, User-Friendly Platform
What do you like best about the product?
Very user friendly platform, can be shared with clients who are not familiar without having to provide training
What do you dislike about the product?
The boards can be slow when lots of information is needed in one place
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This platform helps to bring ideas together in one place allowing a more collaborative approach to shared tasks
Enhances Collaboration and Creativity Effortlessly
What do you like best about the product?
I find Miro to be incredibly easy to use and straightforward, which was evident when I was added to my team by my manager without any complications. I love the collaborative workspace that Miro offers, as it allows us to brainstorm together effectively and work in the same space, which is essential for planning, brainstorming, and game design. The ability to see what my colleagues are thinking and share ideas visually makes communication much easier and more productive, especially in group collaboration. This is particularly beneficial for training students in game design, as we can see and provide direct feedback on their level design layouts. The workspace, notes, and shapes functions are some of the features I find most useful, and I primarily use them to create idea boards, level layouts for games, mood boards, and documentation. Additionally, the seamless integration with tools like Google Sheets and Google Drive complements our workflow perfectly. The group collaboration capabilities and creative possibilities that Miro offers keep me interested and confident in its use over time.
What do you dislike about the product?
I feel the absence of a chat function in Miro is a limitation, although I am not entirely sure how it could be implemented effectively. It's more of a nice-to-have feature that could potentially enhance the collaborative experience, but its lack doesn't significantly impact my current usage.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro facilitates game design collaboration by offering a visual and collaborative workspace, enhancing brainstorming and planning. It simplifies communication and offers real-time feedback during student training sessions, improving productivity and creativity.
Miro Makes Cross-Team Collaboration Effortless and Organized
What do you like best about the product?
Miro is a great platform for connecting with peers on projects and brainstorming new ideas. As an Associate Product Manager, I primarily use Miro to collaborate with our design team on video projects and to monitor our progress. We set up boards to organize plans, ideas, and "cross-team collaborations."
When we invite someone from outside our current project to join us, Miro makes it simple to share our progress and ideas, making collaboration much smoother.

What do you dislike about the product?
Occasionally, it takes a little longer than usual for the specific page to load, but I wouldn't say this causes any real obstacles.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Collaboration with colleagues has become much easier.
Effortless Collaboration with Intuitive UI
What do you like best about the product?
I have been using Miro for five years primarily for process mapping and ideation. I was introduced to it by a friend's recommendation and didn’t switch from another vendor since Miro was my first choice. The initial setup was exceedingly straightforward, and I found the user experience to be very intuitive. One of the standout features for me is Miro's capability to facilitate ideation and enable effective collaboration with my colleagues, even in a remote work environment. We can work simultaneously and stay updated on each other’s contributions, much like using a shared whiteboard. The 'follow' feature is particularly beneficial as it allows me to guide colleagues through new maps efficiently. Overall, the ease and intuitiveness of the product make it effortless to use, which is a significant reason I would continue to choose Miro.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like more useful templates or the ability to create my own templates.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Miro for remote ideation and collaboration, allowing my team to work together in real-time, similar to a whiteboard, which enhances our productivity and simplifies our process mapping.
