Limitless Co-creation!

  • October 11, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like the way it helps us explore our ideas and collaboration. Extremely intuitive for designing and giving presentations. It has varied templates. Aesthetically pleasing. I like the infinite board and the ability to create dynamics with multiple people on the same board. Timer and voting tools are great too.
What do you dislike about the product?
I make a lot of mistakes trying to navigate the boards and ended up dragging my colleagues' drawings from one side to the other. It demands a lot of the computer's hard drive, freezing a lot, when using a very basic computer. Another point is that the only support channel for most paid versions is email, only the enterprise version offers better support.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
internal company problems and how to solve them in the pandemic. It is very common to carry out Design Sprints in my product team, in addition to other meetings with a lot of collaboration, many cards pasted on the walls of the room. In the pandemic, we were forced to find a solution online and Miro handled this problem masterfully.

Introduced in this job, will take to next job

What do you like best about the product?
I started a skeptic - oh god, another laggy fake whiteboard. Can say without doubt that this is my favourite tool adopted by our team during pandemic. My favourite feature is the fact that I can copy templates from other parts of my company - so if we are working on a bit of marketing, I will steal a storyboard from PR team, but when we are working out how to explain products to our partners, I head over to the roadmaps created by engineers for a template. It just gets something down on paper, so I can start planning the workshop.
What do you dislike about the product?
I am the person in the group who clicks on the 'blocker' faded out square thing, and deletes it. Never been sure why they are there, never worked out how to avoid ruining them.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Cross team collaboration without being f2f. If there was the slightest lack of intuitive UI, or it lagged, or it was ugly, or it made my laptop fans take off - it wouldn't stick.

Miro - The best visual whiteboard

  • October 07, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The interactive tools and elements allow collaborators to work together. Miro as a tool allows for all members of the team to offer a creative and unique outlook on all ideas and makes sharing sessions amazing. The built-in timer as well as all the other tools and creative offerings make it a totally fun and unique experience.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can be a tad tricky to navigate if not on a pro plan
The zoom feature needs to be a bit more promptly displayed as it can be sometimes hard to navigate within aboard
Maybe more a variety on colours and post it options
It can be hard for new people to get started as there are so many functions and options to work throughs
Sometimes the image previews don't load properly and can be very difficult to work out what board corresponds to what issue
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Working through projects more succinctly and allowing for amazing workshops.
Allowing a more streamlined take when introducing new processes and ideas
It's allowed us to be a bit more visual with projects and problem-solving
Time management issues are a thing of the past as everyone is always given full transparency and can contribute on the boards
Allow for integration of videos to make things a bit more prominent
Flows and mindmaps are easier to navigate through and better for the team to work through
Team working!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Do research into the offerings and look at the plans available

Miro is our creative collaboration hero

  • October 07, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I knew about Miro during the business incubation process for our startup, and during that process, we were able to draft a large number of mindmaps, concepts, thought techniques (including brainstorming), and strategies even though we were participating in the session virtually. In addition to using text and photos, this application allows us to draw on its canvas using a marker, much like we would if we were using a traditional whiteboard directly.
What do you dislike about the product?
Though it lets the user draw things, it is not on that nuanced perspective to fit designers' needs. It is also not available cross-platform; for instance, Linux users cannot access its desktop version. Additionally, its mobile version is almost useless in terms of usability due to its small screen size.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We can all work together on a single Miro digital whiteboard to brainstorm, create business procedures, and even talk in real-time as if we were in the same room. Its prebuilt templates have always made our work process efficient. But, Miro is sometimes vague due to its unnecessary features; they should improve their knowledge base and get started guide.

Seems limitless

  • October 07, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The infinite nature of the boards - I love how you can add no end of detail and zooming in or out is much smoother than expected. We also love the way workshop teams can all add post-its to the same board at once and see what each other is doing. I realise Miro might not be the only application that does this, but it does it so well and without slowing things down; I'm slightly in awe.

we also like being able to use emojis and have lots of other material at our disposal
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes I struggle to select objects - it can feel like a hassle ungrouping and re-grouping and trying to pick one small thing between layers. I'm not sure how developers might side step this though, without spoiling functionality.

Also, we've not tried doing a live meeting just in Miro - we're a bit nervous about it and have always met in Zoom and then whoever is facilitating will share their Miro screen. That's partly because we don't quite understand how to invite non-contributing participants - we'll pay for a few extra seats so workshop team leaders can contribute but need a way to involve up to 30 view-only people for a couple of hours without buying separate seats for them all which is too expensive for us. I think I have just struggled to understand the rules here and would appreciate clarification.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We've been using it mainly to collaborate in ideation workshops. We'll set up a board with areas that we want to focus on and surround it with images, stats and other inspo materials. We'll allocate each workshop group a specific coloured pack of miro post-its then they'll post their ideas using them, so everyone can see at a glance which group has said what and which group has been the most participative. So in a world where we could no longer do this in person, it's been a great engagement tool.

The other main use case is explaining something to a client or to each other, Miro has beaten other online whiteboards for us because it's so easy to draw and post on it.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Their customer service is good, book a call if anything is confusing

Wherever you go, you can find your team on Miro

  • October 07, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
We like how easily Miro enables our team to gather information and communicate on different creativity, planning, and business management-related tasks, all visually online from home or anywhere.
What do you dislike about the product?
Even though Miro describes itself as a drag-and-drop system, the actual editing process of the pages is complex, and the interfaces are tough to understand.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
During the worldwide pandemic COVID-19-induced crisis and lockdown, we had no choice but to close our physical office and operate remotely, where Miro proved to be quite helpful among our team, allowing us to contribute our regular business procedures in real-time. Being a customer relations office, the most beneficial thing with Miro is that we could create processes for customer acquisition, onboarding, and retention.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
As Miro offers a wide variety of collaborative and visual creations features, a team should figure out what they exactly need to leverage maximum benefit from Miro.

Miro has significantly saved our stationery

  • October 07, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I particularly appreciate its digital canvas that is nearly unlimited as opposed to a real whiteboard. Furthermore, it includes hundreds of prebuilt templates that save time and effort to construct one from the start when working on a real whiteboard.
What do you dislike about the product?
Having many features and functions combined with an inadequate knowledge base and onboarding procedure might make Miro exceedingly tricky for new users to get the system's full benefits.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The most significant benefit that we have realized from using Miro is that our entire team can collaborate virtually from anywhere at any time. It is even better than working on a physical whiteboard because it allows us to illustrate ideas, concepts, and processes while making necessary changes on the fly.

I enjoy using Miro for online collaboration & love its short learning curve for diff stakeholders

  • October 05, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
My favorite pars about Miro is that you can colloborate with various stakeholders with different levels of knowlesge about design tools. Miro has such a short learning curve that it makes it easy for others to learn. I also like Miro is integrated with so much other applications (figma, sketch...) so I can insert files easily.
What do you dislike about the product?
The small bugs here & there. For example, when I make everyone follow me to a specific spot on the board, I don't have a way to undo that & they're semi-stuck with my views until they actively break away from it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use to document many of my design processes & share & present with my team. Also that we can collaborate on Miro boards together. In fact I hosted a week-long virtual workshop using Miro.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Look At Templates -- I used to think it's super hidden, but once I discovered where it's located I found it extremely useful!

Best Digital Whiteboard You Can Explore

  • September 30, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Miro is a feature-rich tool that is quite handy to use. It contains a blend of flexibility and creativity, which ensures that there is always the most significant amount of room for ideas to be populated, validated, and properly arranged. Also, its premium plan allows real-time team collaboration and communication.
What do you dislike about the product?
The most notable complaint with Miro is its small knowledge base, which makes it difficult for first-time users to use and explore this powerful tool efficiently. Furthermore, exporting necessitates capturing a frame at each step and does not allow for the use of a translucent backdrop.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Whenever we need to plan or envision anything, we log onto Miro and work as if we were in a physical office with colleagues. As a result, one of the most significant benefits we have seen since joining Miro is the ability to conceive, develop, and validate a plethora of ideas and concepts inside a team without restriction.

When it comes to Miro, the sky is the limit

  • September 30, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
In Miro, the most powerful feature is the ability to create and share anything in real-time, no matter what it is, either it's just an idea, concept, process, or strategy, in a visually understandable way. In addition, it comes with a convenient function that enables team members to communicate immediately through chat and video communication.
What do you dislike about the product?
As the number of team members increases, the price plan becomes prohibitively costly. Consequently, I believe that the cost per user is high; instead, Miro should consider pricing per team size.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro is the most effective virtual whiteboard available. It is an excellent tool for any job. For instance, with Miro, we can seamlessly ideate and prototype any feature in record time and share the visual concept with everyone within a click.
