Collaborative and interactive tool
What do you like best about the product?
I love the ability to have multiple people collaborate in one space - have used it previously in a lot of workshops and team retros, and it's so useful to surface everything so quickly and easily
What do you dislike about the product?
It took me a while to get used to it - most of the icons and symbols are quite intuitive, but it takes a while to find out everything you can do. When I'm working or my laptop screen only I find it difficult sometimes to drag, drop, enlarge, etc
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use it once a week with my team for our retro and a couple of times monthly on cross functional workshops where we are looking to get together and solve some issues
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Watch some videos about it or ask how other people use it/tips and tricks
A brilliant way to collaborate and Ideate visually simultaneously
What do you like best about the product?
It's collaboration live between team members. There is no saving needed so you can just focus on doing the work. It's also super easy to follow other people's screens as they present which I find really handy!
What do you dislike about the product?
Being a sandbox to develop in it's easy for untrained users to mass post in an unorganised way making the boards visually cluttered. The templates are also a bit basic with no guidance on how to adapt them for your own use case. It would be great to be able to create your own template. Currently we copy paste one in as a hack.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use miro to rationalise complex flows of processes into a easy to follow format. The main use case tho is documenting work and being able to annotate it in a collaborative forum. It's made real life workshops digital! It's great!
Brainstorming, agenda, project Working
What do you like best about the product?
With Miro it is possible to manage all the work, creating mind maps, whiteboards, to-do lists and keep the entire flow under control for each single job. An indispensable platform for those who work in the field of design or communication.
What do you dislike about the product?
The cost is not exactly low and therefore it is not possible to take advantage of all the features with the free version. The interface, for those who do not use it often, is not immediate, even if the tutorials help a lot.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use it especially in the communication agencies I work with. I take care of creating mind maps or site maps, keeping the to-do list under control and making the most of whiteboards. Or even to create research and moodboards for each individual project.
Great shared experience with Miro
What do you like best about the product?
Flexible for quick mockups, easy sharing, and collaboration options (primarily for not-so-technical savvy people). I like that all the comments and feedback could be seen in the same mockup.
What do you dislike about the product?
Tools for UX mockups are kinda limited, but it is not a "no-deal" for Miro. For other kinds of models, tools are very useful in general. I'm not using other models a lot, but I like the tools Miro has.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Focus groups and brainstorming over models in Miro is a blast; people are significantly engaged when we are working (remote and in-office). So all the feedback and improvements can be registered as the meeting progress.
Complete collaboration tool thats is perfect for today's remote working
What do you like best about the product?
I use Miro for a multitude of activities. As no project is the same, I can use the templates and tools that make sense to collect, organise and plan what I need to do. From there, sharing is super easy with people being able to work together in a meeting, or my preference is people can add their thoughts and comments in their own time.
What do you dislike about the product?
I found it a little overwhelming to get started as there are so many features, templates etc but now that i have my 'go to' templates i'm a lot happier :)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I work as a Product Manager and working with coworkers and clients internationally. I use it for Story planning, roadmapping, iteration planning etc. I also prefer the style of using boards and visuals rather than large text documents.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Get started with using the templates to brain dump thoughts. It's flexible so you can always move and organise and set up structure later.
Shared whiteboard tool on steroids
What do you like best about the product?
In some ways, Miro enables workshops even better than a physical whiteboard. No need to clean up after you've finished, or make sure you've remembered enough pens and sticky notes. You can make the space as expansive as you like and return to it whenever you feel like it. Once everyone has connected, collaboration works very smoothly. It also allows you to create very slick-looking visuals like flowcharts and system diagrams. And the built-in mind mapper tool is helpful as well. Overall, I like the level of flexibility that it provides - you can use whatever visual language you want - while making it easy to perform common tasks like adding arrows between entities and writing sticky notes.
What do you dislike about the product?
Getting everyone up and running on a new board can take some planning unless you want to spend the first 10 minutes of a meeting ensuring that everyone has edit permission. While Miro is easy to use once you're familiar with it, there is a bit of a learning curve when you're getting started. It would be great to reduce the number of popups and feature announcements, or at least suppress them until you're ready to look at them. Usually, when I'm opening a board, I'm trying to get something done, so I will dismiss any popups without bothering to work out if they're useful.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Running and participating in workshops with teammates who are all working from home.
Developing product and technology roadmaps, for presentation within and across multiple teams.
Clarifying my own thought processes by writing things out and visualising them.
Creating diagrams to embed in blog posts and presentations.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Compare the features of Miro against other tools that you're using, and consider how Miro offers the benefits of multiple tools in one package. Consider how frequently you would benefit from a multi-user shared whiteboard.
Best Tool for Workshopping
What do you like best about the product?
I love using Miro for all my stakeholder workshops; it is simple to use with many great templates in Miroverse. It has made our virtual experiences so much easier, especially throughout Covid.
What do you dislike about the product?
At this point, there is nothing immediate that comes to mind. The Miro product team is always making updates and constantly improving my experience with the tool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro has given me the ability to translate things that we used to do in person virtually in a seamless manner. It has made it easier to engage teams across the globe and document everything digitally without going back and documenting everything afterward. It is perfect for collaboration between teams and stakeholders.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would highly recommend this tool over some of the other whiteboarding tools out there. I have had an opportunity to use various tools in my career, and Miro is by far my favorite.
Online collaboration tool that isn't boring
What do you like best about the product?
As a UX designer, it makes collaboration and research synthesizing relatively easy. Easy to create and show the work/effort that goes into grouping insights to clients.
What do you dislike about the product?
Though it doesn't happen often, it can slow down a bit depending on how many post-it notes you might have on a board or the laptop/computer I'm on.
Trying to copy and paste more than 50 items from a spread sheet would be helpful as well.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use miro to synthesize UX research; surveys, interviews etc., taking qualitative answers and mapping out themes uncovered.
Also used for collaborative purposes, we used dot voting to gather what ideas were the best.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Better to try and see how it fits with your work requirements. But it's a straightforward program to use and a great place to do a mind dump before refining ideas and parking ideas aside.
BS rev
What do you like best about the product?
- colorful and inspiring templates that can be used in preparing workshops or organizing my data
- different access links differentiating users
- large and infinite space for teams and projects - I don't have to arrange many tables - one is always enough

What do you dislike about the product?
- unuseful changing between pointer and grabber of a mouse - it could be more intuitive and faster
- default size of the text is not automatically fitter to the rest of created content

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
- data are always visualized in an appropriate and esthetic way
- I don't have to care about colors - they are matched by default
- I have and ordered in docs cause I have only one table

If you need to create a simple and esthetic space for your collaborators - try to use miro. any of them can use it at the same time
Miro - interactive diagram creation bliss
What do you like best about the product?
Very easy to use drag and drop creation of diagrams with easily accessible shapes - Excellent Templates - and well-thought-out visual controls. The navigation pane at the bottom right-hand corner of the screen is genius. Ability to choose what an invited person sees upon first view is also very useful.
What do you dislike about the product?
Very limited number of shapes on the left pane. No bullet points in sticky notes (that I can find anyway) - As I use the sticky notes for collaborative work I think it would benefit bullet points (numbered and bulleted) available in the sticky notes
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Problems solved -
Easy collaborative Jam sessions during working remote meetings
Navigation - It is much easier to navigate around a sprawling diagram than other similar products
