Absolute genius
What do you like best about the product?
Its infinite possibilities. You can really do whatever you can imagine, its a free space with so many possibilities, plus you can do it simultaneously in collaboration mode.
What do you dislike about the product?
Integration with excel isn't top, they have really worked hard to bring the tables feature up to par, but i think the integration could be better. Also minor bugs like locking feature have happened to not work for some people in my workshops. The feature is awesome, still work to make it perfect every time!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Working with everyone at the same time has really been a game changer for us. As a bonus i really find this tool helpful for organisational memory and information transmission between our team. Someone leaves and all the info is there in the boards. Have to come back to review a workflow? Start from where you finished last time instead of doing it all again from scratch.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Chosing the plan correctly for the use and making sure Teams get a good rollout to insure adhesion and a good understanding of the possibilities and basic features to start using the app.
Miro has become my primary tool that I use on a daily basis
What do you like best about the product?
I use Miro to organise, plan and collaborate on various initiatives with cross-functional colleagues both synchronously and asynchronously. Especially important is the infinite canvas, which means I can sketch ideas out quickly, import or link together disparate resources and operate at different levels from an overview to detail in seconds. No other tool I have used in the market enables this speed and ease of use.
What do you dislike about the product?
1. Sometimes I run into issues when moving hundreds of elements around the board - it can freeze up on me and become laggy.
2. It can be really easy to break the table when working with a lot of elements in cells - especially when moving them between cells.
3. I'd like more control of how elements are linked when copying content between boards.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I've been leading design thinking and user-centered design projects to help cross-functional teams build vision and solve strategic challenges. The benefits are better remote collaboration and alignment between cross-functional stakeholders.
Great tool for collaborate!
What do you like best about the product?
It's extremely helpful to have a platform like Miro to work in collaboration with teammates that are working from home. We usually use the boards to help us with the organization in day-to-day meetings, and also to perform internal and external workshops.
What do you dislike about the product?
The fact that I am really used to working with different tools like Photoshop, Figma, Illustrator... I don't usually know the shortcuts. But I don't see it as a problem.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro really helps with visualizing the ideas, problems, concepts, and workflow. So I think it helps us to communicate and collaborate better, in a fun and productive way.
One of the best interactive planner/project wall softwares I've gotten to play with
What do you like best about the product?
the easy useability
Being able to drop in templates and add notes and rearrange is fantastic, then little extra's like timers and music etc are very cool
I particularly like the wireframes and templates pre-loaded

What do you dislike about the product?
I haven't really found anything just yet, so I can't say
Perhaps some abilities to convert maps to PDF would be useful - not sure if that is already in there though.

The quick tutorials are great, but it's quite intuitive and is easy to learn on the fly as well

The joys of an excellent application
What do you like best about the product?
When initially presented with Miro, I had a lot of ideas for using the application, and it did everything we needed for our business; plus more. The use cases for the application are extensive, and the thourough thought to each and every feature is truly refreshing. I have taken its use deeper into our business, sharing links with customers for their comments around our project planning and internal product releases. Beyond that, I use it for my educational studies and it continues to entrench into my daily workflow.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is not as ubiquitous as other platforms, and on scaling up, if not used efficiently by the team, it could start to cost a bit more. But apart from that, it is everything that we need.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have found that it solves internal development workflows, mind mapping meetings, marketing pathways, and a clear process structure. The benefits keep opening up to us, day by day.
Kerri's Review
What do you like best about the product?
I love the UX/UI of the product - it is so simple to use and beautiful to showcase boards and maps. I haven't started to integrate it yet, but have just imported the plug-in for Slack and Google Cal. The ability to collaborate in real-time is hugely important.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are 2 things: 1) This one is really big for me (and it appears like it is big for others too) - I am unable to download the data from a mind-map while preserving the heirarchical parent-child structure. It just dumps into a list. So the mind map is not a FUNCTIONAL map, it is a drawing tool. 2) I don't like that you can't close out the little "where you are at" map in the right hand corner. It gets in the way of things when I'm presenting.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are able to collaborate in real time; it aids in being remote and not having to be in person and drawing on "large stock paper taped to the walls"; it helps with easily creating beautiful workflows. With my small team in using it, other people in my company have wanted to use the platforms as well.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Be creative, use the templates to help you understand the extent of this product, etc.

What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes I get lost between the screens of stages in the dynamics and I need to zoom out to follow the step by step.
Maybe it could have an area indicating which step the person was on and what would be the next

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It was a practical way to participate in workshops and exchange ideas with people from very different locations. It saves time and makes the process more organized and is a great recording tool for further research.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
See and understand all the tools that are available to help you.
Very good, I can plan a lot better
What do you like best about the product?
I can create processes in an organized way, and plan my workflow better, scoring mistakes and successes for future improvements. And also think better about brainstorming
What do you dislike about the product?
So far there's nothing I don't like, I think it's intuitive and very simple to understand. I can put all the flow of ideas, eliminate or choose which ones are better for us to move forward and we can create the pieces, know as a group what's cool or not about something
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Organization, I managed to create a workflow, I've also used it to be able to hold a meeting and point out what people were feeling about the company, and what they thought was cool or not in the process we have

What do you dislike about the product?
- the use of the different plans and personal/team/accounts is not clear and straightforward

Incredibly effective at mapping my mind.
What do you like best about the product?
Despite the hundreds if not thousands of ways of using a tool like Miro, my absolute favorite is Mind Mapping. It is an incredibly useful way of taking a jumble mess of ideas and mapping it visually, making it incredibly easy to continue developing the idea further.
What do you dislike about the product?
There isn't much, but one thing that could use improvement is the destinction between triggering a drag-item interaction, drag-canvas interaction, and select canvas interaction.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use tools like Notion to plan, store and execute on all things in my digital life. Miro is the perfect sister app to Notion, as it allows me to share with others complex thoughts and ideas related to problems we are solving inside our company.
