Miro has been a pandemic hero for me
What do you like best about the product?
I was using Miro prior to Covid, to support clients on design sprints, but with covid, it became the go-to for all my work. I have been able to templatize so much work and save tons of time. The built-in app marketplace is great, and frankly out of the box, Unsplash and IconFinder??? wow, so useful. And the updates are frequent but not overly so. New features like improving the table view have been very good.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is still a small learning curve for my clients, and I think the onboarding steps that Miro provides those users could be improved a little bit, maybe with video? And this is a small one, but I would really like to be able to rotate objects occasionally. why can't I do that yet???
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
remote consulting and coaching, it's hands-down excellent for that. I can keep multiple teams running on design sprints, each with their own dedicated boards, plus I create one landing board for the project where I put all the useful common resources. And that landing board has jump links for the teams.

Very intuitive to use and has been helpful to use in client presentations.
What do you like best about the product?
the beautiful graphics that are easy to create
What do you dislike about the product?
wish there was a polyline tool in addition to the line tools.
lines too often jump to attach to something, sometimes you just need a separate arrow or line.
wish imported images could have opacity options .

Elevate your white-boarding collaborative work experience
What do you like best about the product?
Miro is honestly the best virtual white-boarding and collaborative tool out there! The collaborative ability to brainstorm remotely but together and the features Miro has to allow our creativity to come out. While getting my coworkers started on Miro, they especially appreciated and were a fan of the helpful onboarding tips. Using the app, to them, felt intuitive. This made using Miro to showcase my research synthesis and working with my co-workers a lot easier - so thanks Miro for that!
What do you dislike about the product?
I would love to have an excellent way to organize boards or to have a visual way to label the boards. I'd need to click on the board itself to recall what the conten was in it.
There's a bit of a drawback with using the app itself because it lags when moving objects around. This makes myself as a user use the app a bit less efficiently.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
A significant problem my team and I are solving with Miro is how we collaborate as a team. Working in a company remotely has had its challenges. Making an effort of how to improve our collaborative skills was essential to us. Miro's helped with getting on a call and start mapping and moving ideas around.
Synthesizing user research and visually putting data information to where I need/want to place them. It also helps to communicate the data I've gathered with my team. Doing this has improved the way we see and view data, and with that, we've enjoyed organizing our research findings.

It's a great tool to allow for collaborative teamwork. There are templates to try out if you need help on coming up with a template.
Virtual Collaboration made easy
What do you like best about the product?
Space seems to be quite expansive at default, spellcheck, intuitive ease, file import presentations stacked.
What do you dislike about the product?
Separate multiple boards, upgrades required for the timer.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Virtual collaboration of a NEW large project team remotely coordinating work, training, and project objectives.
Benefits are the development of Agile, Integrated Project Delivery processes & tools into Miro has been straightforward.

A Solid Teaching Tool with Room for Improvement, even if you still use NPS ;)
What do you like best about the product?
I use Miro primarily as an online whiteboard for teaching and organizing my thoughts. I really appreciate its interactive teaching format, which is ideal for developing ideas with colleagues. Miro offers a shared space where participants can engage by moving sticky notes, sorting information, and working with templates, making collaborative work much smoother. I find it particularly user-friendly and straightforward; even a brief five-minute introduction helps others navigate it effectively. It's a clean, efficient online whiteboard that enhances collaboration significantly.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find it challenging to locate my boards within Miro, especially since I work on multiple projects across different accounts. It's often difficult to find the specific board I need, as the organization and visibility of my most important boards, or collections, don't always align with my needs. Some of the main collections or folders tend to become invisible for unexplained reasons, whereas others that I rarely use are easily accessible. Additionally, there used to be no way to search for boards across different accounts or folders. This lack of comprehensive search functionality is particularly frustrating, as it forces me to manually jump between accounts or folders to locate what I need. I wish there was a seamless way to search and access all my boards in one place, at least by title.

I use Miro for teaching and organizing ideas, benefiting from a shared space where colleagues can interact by moving stickies and using templates. It's easy to use, making online collaborations clear and efficient.
Miro, the way to go for better visual collaborations
What do you like best about the product?
What I like about using Miro is so that I can explore various tools for design thinking, planning, retros, ideations, etc and it gives me the freedom of creating what I want, how I want.
What do you dislike about the product?
My biggest issue with Miro is that when using Team accounts, I can not add people to my team as non-team users.
What I mean is, I would like to have a team account with x people but only 2-3 of us would actually create the boards while the other only have a view options of the dash board and access to the board that have share setting open.

Visualzation
While talking about stuff helps, having it visually represented ensures that all parties are on the same page

Friendly and Creative Interface
What do you like best about the product?
It's user friendly approach and flexibility to create and interact with content
What do you dislike about the product?
The boards tend to change ownership. I think when there are multiple users working on a board, the access and ownership sometimes get misplaced.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are teaching undergrad architecture students, and Miro has enabled us to display and discuss through annotations. Designing is such a hands-on field and in the virtual learning phase, Miro has given a huge helping hand.
Great white boarding tool for remote collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to quickly visualize ideas through various ways (post-it notes, quick drawings, wireframing). This helps us create quick designs that further discussions. As we all are remote at this time, this is critical since we all can't stand next to a whiteboard. once we have an alignment in the team, we can use the same quick visuals to validate our ideas with customers.
What do you dislike about the product?
It has a lot of features, and I am just not aware of all the great features. As I was looking to find what I dislike, I noticed another feature I would benefit from using. Another potential problem (but I don't think that is Miro), is the single sign-on we have. any new user has to go through our IT team before they can start contributing. This causes issues if someone forgot to go through that step before a workshop.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am primarily using it for design definition work and aligning designers, product management, and engineering on the direction the design should take. By making it visual, we all can make sure we have a common understanding of what we think should be built and, easily address any differences in opinions. We also use those "crappy" designs to validate with customers we are on the right track before even starting to do any more detailed design.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I have used a few other whiteboard collaboration tools, but none of them have measured up to what Miro delivers.
Give Miro a try, it is very intuitive to get started with and also supports many different needs.

"Miro is like art for my business creativity"
What do you like best about the product?
It has been fantastic this past year for conducting high stakes “interactive” workshops that feel designed, in lieu of in-person workshops. The wide canvas allows you to creatively lay out content in any direction. The title of my review actually comes from a reply from @AssistanceHQ on a recent Twitter thread on great enterprise software UX.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's jarring to jump or zoom when presenting to others (kind of nauseating too). Setting up presentation mode is too burdensome, having to drag boards into the right order (prefer Figma approach where you can link up animations free style). Wish there was also a better, lightweight version (fewer bells and whistles) to share Miro boards with new, non logged in users when facilitating larger workshops with people who otherwise feel overwhelmed by all the features.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Solved a lot of problems around visual, unstructured conversations with my team during Work From Pandemic mode. Also helps create a visual artifact of your work to be able to go back and remember the chain of decision making.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Great, reasonably priced choice for small teams. Easy to set up different project spaces for different clients when working in a consulting capacity.
Best way for a design workshop class
What do you like best about the product?
Putting tons of pictures simultaneusly and drawing on an infinite canvas. Undo function.
What do you dislike about the product?
Slow loading when the canvas is too crowded or when it has a lot of content.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Having corrections on infographic panels in design class during the pandemic.
