The great platform not just for brainstorming and thoughts organizing but bot creating the solutions
What do you like best about the product?
I'm a massive fan of creative and strategy sprint sessions, and Miro is the perfect tool for it. Thanks to its tools Miro makes the collaboration so easy and fun that the whole 4-hour sprint passes in just one go with no fatigue and stress. I highly recommend Miro for team collaboration and brainstorm sessions. And especially as a perfect tool for the facilitators.
What do you dislike about the product?
I didn't notice anything terrible about Miro because the product is developing and improving so rapidly that you only see new or updated features making the experience better.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I handle creative and strategy sprints on Miro boards. So, it's primarily marketing-related tasks. Miro i's also good to keep, organize and analyze data and information. I used it for cus dev studies and other product improvements. It has plenty of templates related to many topics and fields.
Enables a remote-first team with a great user experience
What do you like best about the product?
What I especially like about Miro is the possibility to create frames and easily navigate through them while presenting content. In addition to that, to conduct workshops the timer and the feature to show collaborators' cursors are super helpful for a moderator. I also enjoy the integration of Miro with Slack, so that I quickly get to see notifications when there's something new in my boards. Miro is my number one helper whenever there's a remote workshop and I use it very much with my teams as we are a remote-first company. I've tried other platforms like Mural and I must say that Miro's user experience is superior.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are way too many templates, and some of them are hard to edit. I wish I didn't have to browse through all templates to find the one I need e.g. if Miro would ask me a few questions to understand what my goals are with a new board and then suggest me a few that could fit my use case.
I also wish the tutorials were easier to find and perhaps in a guided tour such as the ones you can get when using Userlane.
Once I tried to contact Miro support to ask about voting data that was not saved, but as I have a free account, it was impossible to find the contact. Finding the answer in the Miro community was not easy.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In a remote-first environment, it is hard to know whether people still follow your ideas or if their attention span is long gone during a workshop or a team ceremony.
With Miro, I feel empowered as a manager to lead my teams in a safe environment. A place where everyone feels encouraged to share their ideas.
Before Miro we were collaborating using Google Workspace apps. Still, there was nothing that could replace a good physical whiteboard to spark new ideas. Miro has changed this game, and my team members adopted it quickly as the usability is excellent.

Very beginner friendly!
What do you like best about the product?
I think the most helpful thing about Miro is not only the tools they offer in the tool itself but the other resources they provide. As a newbie to Miro it was very easy to use but I didn't realize how much Miro had to offer. That is until I tuned into one of their zoom education sessions. They had so much information on all the tips and tricks and it was all super easy to digest.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't have anything I dislike quite yet
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It has made affinity mapping super easy to go through not to mention there is a feature in which you can take a picture of your sticky notes and they will be uploaded to Miro so that you don't have to re write on to Miro. There's also a page in which you can find all the short cuts so that you don't have to memorize them.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I think everyone should try it out, it had so many great things to offer!
Miro is intuitive in all senses, using the mouse, the different objects, even integrating w/3rd
What do you like best about the product?
Ability to be all looking the same without sharing the screen, I love automation like voting, and timer, among the main.
Integrating with other apps like "flip cards", Jira issues, randomized number or object selections, and various Agile applications make it easy to do more.

What do you dislike about the product?
when organizing boards there is just a project level and when the number of boards is large within a project it's hard to find one quickly.
I've noticed sometimes I need to enable complete incognito sessions, as a creator and there is no such feature.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
They facilitate all kinds of meetings especially Scrum, creating templates for other colleagues to reuse.
We've expanded its use to provide training about Agility, also as part of our recognition program and we've created a standard board, and team members can join and assign a badge and leave a comment this later is moved to a company-wide database.

Miro a intuitive creative platform for you or in collaboration with your colleagues
What do you like best about the product?
Every creative process starts with a brainstorming phase. You want to gather and collect without any boundaries or structure.
Miro boards are like a vast floor where you can throw all the stuff you have on. Anything you find and come up with (post-its, drawings, notes, etc.). Side by side, on top of each other, left or right - your choice. Videos, Images, documents, notes, drawings, there's no limit.
Once you have saturated your board, you can start to organize all the stuff if you don't already have applied a template (plenty ready-made available to choose from) and placed your content. Sort things, distill, add, pair, place.
With frames you can place and size anywhere on the board, all the content you choose to organize can become a presentation. Super easy.
Once you get a grip, you will realize the potential of zooming in and out on your board. One super zoomed-out frame can contain tens and tens of detailed frames you can zoom in on.
Two modes of presentation give you either a fly-around "Prezi" type of experience or you have the classical PowerPoint frame presentation view (although without transition possibilities - see negatives).
At the click of a button you can either export the entire board as an entire pdf, a pdf slide presentation or you can share the board for viewing or real-time updated and synchronized editing collaboration.
These are only a few of the features and functions.

What do you dislike about the product?
The presentation mode could be improved: Transitions for the slide view mode. Repeated viewing of the same frame in a presentatation sequence. Hide and reveal elements. Exporting functionality to Power Point. Easier navigation betweem frames overall.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
For us: Global collaboration in creative processes. Perfect for people that either work over different time zones on the same material to share a board or for groups that simultaneously work on the same material at the same time.
Virtual collaboration helps everything be remote
What do you like best about the product?
There are so many use cases we can use it for - collaborative employee interviews, team brainstorming sessions, customer feedback, planning - it allows our praimarily remote team to collaborate as if we were in person.
What do you dislike about the product?
No significant downsides for me- I've never experienced any issues, and it has all the features my team needs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The problems we've solved with Miro are the ability to build off something someone else has created when you're not in the same room. The benefits have been better collaboration, quicker understanding and less back and forth. Teams can give feedback in real-time on calls or a-sync.
I could not love this application more...and I didn't think I would feel that way!
What do you like best about the product?
I love that it gives me space to visually map things out so I can collect thoughts for things I'm working on. I also LOVE that my team can collaborate and brainstorm together though we are all virtual. I come from a company that used a lot of TQM continuous improvement techniques, but we did that using whiteboards and paper sticky notes. That already feels so outdated. Miro lets me keep up that kind of work process, including visual managment in a more modern way.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not much. Sometimes I have to figure out the right gestures or controls, but I can always accomplish what I need.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I been using it to help with brainstorming, strategic planning, and organizing research. It has helped us do that though we are all still home due to COVID. I have realized that working in Miro helps us create a repository so we can keep up our work without having to take pictures of the whiteboard or write "Do Not Erase".
Miro ticks in so many boxes
What do you like best about the product?
So easy to use and the flexibility. You can introduce Miro to a group of not tech-savvy people, but still you can have them participate on a Miro board in 5-10 minutes.
What do you dislike about the product?
In the beginning, it was the fact you had to introduce a new stand a lone program to the team. With the integration to Ms Teams this hurdle is gone.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro is making our brainstorm and workshops so much more transparent than before. Also, the democracy, with anonymous voting, you get less biased results from the team.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
In a modern workplace, Miro is the most versatile tool I'm using when it comes to on- and off-line work settings.
Miro Board for Fashion and Product Design Processes Visualization and Mind Mapping
What do you like best about the product?
Miro is one of the best remote collaboration Apps that I was able to work with as a Teaching Assistant for university-level Design Courses. Miro's User Interface is particularly useful when working in groups on brainstorming and visual storming activities, when collaborating on image researches and moodboards, or for remote workshops. The interactive tools and elements allow collaborators to work together on the same worksheet and to connect.
What do you dislike about the product?
One thing to be reminded to students when using Miro for group activities is that they have to access the boards through their University account, in order to have unlimited editing access to the shared contents.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro allows students, and users more in general, to work creatively in remote mode by providing user-friendly tools for brainstorming, mind-mapping, visual storming, moodboarding activities.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would recommend adopting Miro for distance collaborations activities such as Mind Mapping, Moodboarding, Brainstorming and Visual Storming and or other remote group activities and workshops.
Great tool for work individual and group
What do you like best about the product?
I can use miro while working with my colleagues and we are on the same page. I can call them and discuss about the topic on the boards we are looking at.
What do you dislike about the product?
Miro uses a lot of resources from my laptop. It can slow down a lot when there is a lot of information on the board.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have been researching new user targets for my product. I can put every information i found at first,then arrange the idea later
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is easy to access websites and software with ease of use, and I enjoy it every time I'm in miro.
