What do you dislike about the product?
We have a corporate license. Not sure about cost for individuals
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mainly for Org Charts. But also use it for projects now. And it is in TEAMS, all involved can access at any time and edit.
Very helpful while working with team remotely!
What do you like best about the product?
I like the number of tools available to create and customize your board. It is also effortless to have multiple co-workers simultaneously making notes and adjustments to the board.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would love to see more templates for board creation. It is beneficial to see and have the ability to use different organizational strategies.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We can work as a team on shared projects remotely. It is helpful to have a place to organize thoughts and easily share with other groups.
Transformative for collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
It's really easy to get started and have a group contribute without prior experience. I like that you can visually diagram things easily with shapes that connect. Frames help you synthesize ideas after a session or can help you use one board as a collaborative space with multiple topics. Social features like commenting allow you to use a space over time.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can be a little difficult to use at times - often people inadvertently move pieces of content when trying to move around the board. I find it hard to edit shapes sometimes after the fact. I also wish there were more intensive board categorization capabilities so that when used at a large company, users can navigate to a space to see their boards more effectively.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Get teams to think on complex topics where input from multiple people is needed
Remote workshops are a reality thanks to Miro
What do you like best about the product?
How easy it is to understand even for newcomers and how responsive is the real-time feeling while working collaboratively
What do you dislike about the product?
Templates are good, but would be even better if were a bit more interactive and even guide you completing them
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm leading online workshops and keeping important documentation about user journeys and interaction design in Miro
Keeping a Working Group Working through COVID Isolation
What do you like best about the product?
Miro allowed a group from multiple backgrounds to come together to assess gaps and find solutions to a complex industry problem. Participation during meetings allowed everyone to illustrate their thinking, connect to new ideas, and rate solutions. Between sessions, members could contribute supporting documents, build on ideas and respond to queries allowing for the project's momentum to continue.
Participants were used to collaborating inperson using visual cues and dialouge. Coupling Miro with Zoom, allowed faciliation that kept both the inperson feel and whiteboard tracking. Using the templates allowed the working group to collabortate on fishbones, track system experience and map soutions.
As a faciliator templates made it easy to prep for sessions, timers helped keep meetings on track, and visual tracking of particpants maintain engagment. The ability to add ice breakers to initiate creative thinking and hid e frames to allow generative process allowed for good tranistions to virtual work.

What do you dislike about the product?
Miro is available to be used on different devices; however, participants found desktop was the most user friendly. It took new users of varying technical skills up to three sessions to feel confident and comfortable contributing to the board. The limits of the online video conferencing within the platform created challenges. While commenting was applicable between sessions, the chat function within Miro had limited usefulness.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The collaborative working group was reviewing the distributed model of student internships. We were able to visually map out the complex experience and identify gaps and solutions to improve the programming.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
For facilitators:
- Include either a session or pre-work for participants to orient to the program before using.
- If expecting participation from a large group for a one-off workshop, it could be problematic if too complicated.
- Think about how integration with other meeting platforms would work, such as Zoom
- Use the templates; it cuts the work
- Start with a wireframe of your facilitation process, then build from there
- Add in Apps are valuable

Intuitive and does not get in the way
What do you like best about the product?
Miro lets me get right into diagraming my thoughts without getting the way. The intuitive interface presents the most common properties that one needs. Each component makes sense. The mind map and the notes are my two favorite components - invaluable when I design data models and application interactions.
What do you dislike about the product?
I prefer a more visual representation of the text alignment options - showing both vertical and horizontal options in one selection.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Diagrams to show system interactions and diagrams to explain IT concepts to the non-IT audience. Using Miro creates aestetically pleasing diagrams with minimal effort.
Life Changing
What do you like best about the product?
Miro makes remote collaboration a breeze. It's also an excellent tool for visual thinkers!
What do you dislike about the product?
There isn't much, but I often try to find templates I think should exist that should exist
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Remote collaboration, visual thinking, idea generation, brainstorming, I could go on...
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Give it a whirl!
Online Meetings could not be more easy with Miro!
What do you like best about the product?
I personally liked the different tools Miro offers. Its wide variety makes it the perfect solution for any type of projects a company would need to do. It is user friendly, so it makes it perfect for people who might not be familiar with online programs.
Another thing I like is how easy it is to move around the board. Shortcuts are quite handy for this; and that makes it so much better to work around.

What do you dislike about the product?
I was introduced to Miro because I was helping improve a process, so they added me to a team. I was amazed by Miro, so I decided I wanted to use it with my coworkers. I tried to create a team, but I found it not as easy as I would thought. It was asking me to upgrade my account, but I was not ready to commit just yet, for I wanted to try it out in current role within the company. I had to create a new account in order to create a new team.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have been using Miro for decision-making in my department. We are constantly trying to find room for improvements, and by using Miro, ideas have flown so much easier. Before Miro, everything had to be done with old fashion tools. We would need to write down our ideas on a piece of paper, then talk about it and finally come up with those ideas that would work best. Now, everything is made online and on the go. Feedback is instant, and the most beneficial trait that I personally believe Miro offers is that it is visually friendly.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
You should definitely give it a try. Once you have used Miro, using another software would fulfill your expectations.
Great tool for awesome collaboration workshops online
What do you like best about the product?
Infinite space to create collaboratively
What do you dislike about the product?
I cannot order the tabs in the desktop app
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm able to replicate in-person training experience in the online context
Great collaborative tool with deep functionality
What do you like best about the product?
The deep functionality within Miro and a broad ecosystem of integrations make it a very flexible and helpful system. You can do most of what you need to do from a collaboration perspective without leaving Miro, and being able to embed files and other integrations help that. You can design good-looking boards, and it's relatively simple to keep them neat and tidy.
What do you dislike about the product?
There can be a steep learning curve for new participants who haven't used Miro before, and the onboarding process for new users can be a bit of a headache in terms of registering--they can get a bit confused at times. It would be useful to be able to lock down or limit functionality for new users.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Team workshops, teaching for students, whole innovation programs, one-to-one facilitated discussions, online collaboration, mentoring sessions
More effective workshops, better and faster collaboration, easy knowledge management
