Best Software Ever
What do you like best about the product?
The extent of the power Miro gives you to manipulate information is breathtaking. I have no idea how I would have been able to build my existing business without it. In fact, I have built my company around Miro.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like the fact that I can't automate boards to unlock certain exercises on certain dates. If I could do that, I could produce an evergreen training program that would unlock extraordinary value for customers.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am able to use Miro to capture information from my clients and rearrange that information in more intuitive ways to help clients visualize their business more clearly.
Miro is born for the new remote/hybrid world we are living in
What do you like best about the product?
Miro just works. The interface and navigation make sense and the time from when I sit down to having a helpful visual, diagram, workflow, etc. is about as fast as I can do with a whiteboard.
What do you dislike about the product?
Managing all of the different accounts can be tricky as some people have a personal free account, and then our business has one. Im sure this is more of an internal process issue.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We need to map out 3+ user journeys through our software. Parts of their journey exist on our platform and some parts off. We've been able to use Miro to visualize these complex processes clearly and it has helped us to simplify them after we've seen opportunities on our diagram.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Its a fantastic tool that integrates well into any of the other pieces of software you are using.
Miro perfect tool in trying times.
What do you like best about the product?
Miro is great as it is so simple to use; less tech savvy users can jump right in and be productive. We tried many similar tools and Miro is by far the best.
It works great as a web app, so users don't have to install the desktop app and makes it great for quick reviews anywhere.

What do you dislike about the product?
We often run workshops with people that will likely never use Miro again, so don't have and will never need a full account and are given a link to participate with ability to edit however these people are assigned a random name which can make it hard to know who is who during the workshop.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In covid times with many people working from home, Miro has been invaluable to continuing business through lockdowns.
Miro has enabled us to remain productive in creative groups and includes more people in the creative process.
We have had staff moving away from our office location, and Miro makes it easier to retain those workers as there are very few requirements to be physically in the office.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Miro is a great platform and actively developing with a vibrant community where you can get answers and ideas for running virtual workshops and have found it a great learning resource.
Do try other platforms, it will highlight how good Miro is; I tested quite a few and always came back to Miro.

Miro helps me in so many ways
What do you like best about the product?
All the great features and the friendly user interface
What do you dislike about the product?
The changes in the new ways of voting has made it a bit less easy to set up voting for less experienced users of Miro.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am able to get an overview of all the stuff I'm doing and planning. I can facilitate workshops in Miro that enable a large group of people to collaborate and find solutions to challenges. Miro and all the great features makes it fun and easy to be effective and creative in workshops. Miro helps me win as an agile coach and facilitator.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Be a part of the Miro community and you'll learn nifty Miro tricks and meet a bunch of great people.
A great tool for sharing knowledge and synthesizing research information for projects!
What do you like best about the product?
The UI is very intuitive, and the overall design of the workspace takes the process of creating a dashboard for a college project and personal artistic research to a more professional and harmonic approach. I love the templates for creating different mindmaps and whiteboards.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the features that compose the paid plans are not that accessible to educational institutions in other countries. Also (as a personal note), I would like to see a dark mode option; this makes working on a project at night a lot easier.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Getting information such as images, text, video, and other multimedia makes presentations and teamwork more accessible to our class. This tool has enriched all our creative processes.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Getting a hold of Miro's team features makes teamwork an organized and resourceful experience.
University Miro insights
What do you like best about the product?
I really love how easy and intuitive the software is (+ that is available for web, app, and browsers). I use most of the templates, and their variety is outstanding.
What do you dislike about the product?
I sometimes dislike the presets and default navigation tools, they come to be a bit confusing for first-time users, and sometimes settings aren´t that clear, but overall it is great.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Simultaneous teamwork is one of the problems that miro solves; I get a massive benefit from how easy it is to connect with people and how every feature falls in place when working along.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
First-time users must be patient and open to exploring all tolls and find the ones that fit their needs the most.
Made working at home great again
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to organise workshops with team members on distance and get so much value/input from everyone on the call
What do you dislike about the product?
Not much, really, just a minor one which is that some elements won't allow them to be locked so people can't move them accidentally
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Workshops with clients, project planning sessions and wireframing digital experiences
The essence of Miro
What do you like best about the product?
Miro is an easily navigable, infinite, digital whiteboard that makes collaboration inviting. Have an idea, concept, or even a simple plan? Use Miro to mindmap it out. Want to figure out a workflow for your business? Create the diagrams and flow charts in Miro frames to quickly scroll through them, share them or even print them. Want to collaborate with friends or colleagues? Share your Miro team or board with them with any level of involvement or access. Need a space for all of your documents, presentations, images, or other files? Load them to your Miro board, so everything is in one convenient area.
Miro makes work easy and enjoyable.
Miro makes work easy and enjoyable.
What do you dislike about the product?
Listing "cons" is a bit of a challenge, as everything has worked great for me so far. Scrolling through a document could be faster. Some of the objects, like tables, tend to load a bit large, so you will most likely have to resize.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I own a consulting business where I help others optimize their workflows, processes, and data management. I use Miro extensively to mindmap, diagram, create flow charts, and so much more. It has become the essential tool of my business, given how much I use and rely on it.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Dive in. Enjoy the learning process (which is quick) and have fun making things. It's the most enjoyable tool I've used so far.
Must-have tool for product development teams
What do you like best about the product?
Endless canvas for any kind of work: Product Discovery sessions, ideation workshops, concept reviews with engineering ... In the past this would've been many files across different tools (problem statements in GDocs, flowchart in draw.io, mockups in Balsamiq). And not all of them are so collaborative live Miro. In a remote setting, it's just an indespensable tool.
What do you dislike about the product?
If you're a small team or startup strapped for resources, Miro can become expensive quickly once you want to go beyond the initial 4-5 people working on a project (including colleagues for review sessions, for example). At least that's how I remember it. They may even have fixed this experience so you don't need to create paid accounts for these kinds of users anymore.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's so many use cases: Alignment sessions with stakeholders in the product development process, building large flow charts for new product updates and how they'll work, running retros, design studio workshops. The facilitation is just so intuitive, despite the many cases covered. It's really a great and flexible tool, kind of like Excel, which you can use for tracking finances, project management, contacts list etc.
Great for UX Design: Wireframing, Brainstorming, and UX Research
What do you like best about the product?
I love how flexible Miro is. Before I was using a plethora of tools, one for doing simple wireframes, one to brainstorm ideas, and one to map UX research. Now I can use Miro to complete a wide range of UX design tasks all the way from the research phase into the prototyping phase. I particularly appreciate that you can share your boards or designs with people who don't have a miro account, and they can still interact with your boards and add comments. This makes it especially helpful when I'm working with stakeholders who don't want to have to create an account for tools that they'll never use outside of their meetings with me.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only downside is if you're looking for a tool to create high-fidelity mockups or prototypes it isn't necessarily as comprehensive as Figma or Adobe XD. However I've found that Miro is more useful than those tools for working to make decisions with stakeholders and come to a decision on the overall direction a design should take.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm solving being able to get feedback from stakeholders efficiently. I also love how easy it is to create low-fidelity wireframes. It makes it easier to generate a lot of ideas and present those to stakeholders in a way they understand and can visualize.
It also allows me to show how different elements or ideas are connected when I'm using it as a planning tool. Before I used Diagram.IO or a separate diagramming tool to create flow charts. Miro is great because I can create a wireframe, and then on the same board I can also create a flow diagram showing what happens in the backend as a user interacts with the page. This has also helped improve communicating with our development team.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would recommend trying it out. They have a free version. There's a lot of flexibility in how you can use it, it also integrates with a lot of other tools and platforms.
