Miro is a great tool for collaborative way of working with teams
What do you like best about the product?
It provides flexibility and freedom to work with teams and have everything captured using this tool at one place. Also, I liked the option of voting out against the available sticky notes, it provides great value addition in saving time in taking decisions at team level.
What do you dislike about the product?
During initial phase, It takes little time to get used to it. It wasn't easy to resize the board, lock/unlock the frames and hence was causing some sort of irritation while using this tool. But with the time, when one is used to it then it's not a problem anymore.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Have a working meeting using this tool, make use of sticky notes and meeting notes. Voting option is also a great feature.
I was able to use it for retrospective meetings, taking actions out of the meeting and also for any brainstorming activity. We also use it for our regular meetings where we setup the agenda along with backlog and then we work towards those items using Miro tool. It's also integrated with Jira so it provided flexibility to put items on board.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
I liked this tool after I started using it and I recommend it to other based on my personal experience. It's a great tool for online collaboration, working with Agile methodologies and have working meetings.
This tool can be used for not only regular meetings but even for other scrum ceremonies as it has voting options so we can use it for any brainstorming session as well.

Beyond a white board
What do you like best about the product?
Started using Miro as a collaborative tool to connect, present and brainstorm with cross-organizational partners. It has been a great place to keep the project milestones, work-breakdown and brainstorm the user experience of the project I am coordinating on track.
What do you dislike about the product?
If you collaborate with people that aren't familiar with Miro you should calculate extra time to make them familiar. Especially in the overwhelming virtual world of the pandemic. Once people get the hang of it though, the collaboration is more powerful then an in person white-board. Me and my team will keep on using Miro beyond the pandemic even when we will meet in person again!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro has supported the cross-organizational team that the project is involved in to brainstorm, review and overview the project milestones in an organized and visual way. I also love that you can download any Frame as a vector PDF which allows you to share visual information with stakeholders involved.
Miro satisfied my demand in short term. I drafted too many ideas on a frame
What do you like best about the product?
Miro is simple to use for a beginer. I could use it and show the result to anyone. Furthermore, miro helps me train my thoughts to be more logical because it arranges my flow of thoughts more clearly via simple symbols. Miro provides me an effective tool to think comprehensively.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't have privileges to open various projects. It restricts my ideas because I have to draft too many one in a frame and it causes inconvenience as well as ineffectiveness. I always have to consider to avoid overlapping my logical trees. I applied Miro in studying and working, thus, it needs to be separate because I want to share the ideas to different targets. It could be better if Miro provides normal user right to open more project. Besides Miro should identify a standard frame so that users don't waste time on zoom in and out to look for the ongoing project.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mind mapping. I used Miro to map my idea and form my logic frame. When I have too many ideas at the same time, I use Miro to understand the structure of my thoughs better. The tool I applied is issue tree. The simple tools in Miro allow me to visualise my thoughts and share it to colleagues. With real-time update, we can work together remotely to complete the brainstorming stage in a project. For my dissertation, I used Miro to test my hypothesis. The flow of thoughts to prove each hypothesis are visualised to illustrate more clearly and comprehensively. Thus, it helps me save time to avoid wrong assumptions.
Discovering an awesome new tool
What do you like best about the product?
How flexible it is and how easy it is to create quality content.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes little hard to navigate with the zooms
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Note taking and presentations have never been easier.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are looking for a tool that allows you to take meeting notes, review content and allows you the flexibility to create your own presentations not like a multitude of slides but like a one window shop, then this is the tool for you. I was introduced to the tool here at vmware and it has come to be invaluable to me. I use it every day for taking down notes in meetings and use it to record important parts of a training or a webinar I am in. It allows me to simplify complex architecture diagrams easily and I am simply in love with this feature. I never knew I could create this level of professional looking presentations without any assistants or pre built templated.
A game changer with collaboration and paperless working
What do you like best about the product?
Miro is an endless canvas that never limits your workspace. This allows you to deal with large projects in one place with all the reference material close at hand.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is not much I dislike about Miro. The app has been a little slow at times, but that has improved lately.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Working from home but still needing to collaborate is the biggest problem being solved. However, i also find Miro a great place to work on projects where all the documentation can be centralized in one place. Being focused on performance, there can be many sources of data. Before I would need to print out the different sources to allow me to work with all of them. With Miro I can put all the documentation on one board and then do the analysis and comparison.
Miro is very helpful for remote, cross-functional and collaborative teams!
What do you like best about the product?
What I like the most about Miro is the fact it is cloud-based and has many templates for many types of boards.
What do you dislike about the product?
What I dislike about Miro is the drawing tools—they are improving, however.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Using Miro in our software research, design and engineering teams has been immensely valuable to conduct everyday work and collaboration. Without it we'd be stuck using a few different inadequate tools. Some co-worker here swear by it and would lose their minds if they didn't have it. :-)
Recommendations to others considering the product:
For those considering Miro I'd only have to say to don't think you'll be able to replace a drawing tool (AI, Sketch, etc.) with it. With that said, the tools for wireframing and drawing are improving. Otherwise, Miro has been an indispensable tool for our teams.
Easy, breezy remote workshop
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to use - Available templates saves a lot of time in designing workshop activities. Very intuitive as well
Real-time collaboration - Multiple users can access and co-create at the same time
Great details for host control - 'Hide frames' function allows you to create workshop materials beforehand, but not disclosing too much ahead of time; ' Bring all to me function' allows you to gets everyone attention easily

What do you dislike about the product?
Doesn't work well on all PC - 2 out of 15 participants have difficulties accessing the board/ navigating functions
Some Ux functions - Unless EVERY element is locked. Things just dragged along with the mouse too easily. Have to spend time locking frames, shapes, picture, background...also duplication/ deletion of certain template elements when customizing, can be very tedious

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My work requires me to design and facilitate workshop with internal and external teams. Miro has been a great platform that helps me migrate to a 'virtual workspace' under COVID impact
An essential tool for creative collaboration online
What do you like best about the product?
The highlights of Miro is the wealth of features within the board. There's so much you can do, and it's evident that they've been working with this for some time. It's a very mature product. The ability to trace your colleagues and screen share from within Miro is a great feature, reducing the need to use screen sharing within your conference call applications.
What do you dislike about the product?
There's very little to dislike. The one thing I can think of is that when a board get's very crowded, it can take some time to load. So you need good structure on your boards, and this will never be an issue.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's the perfect tool for remote workshops. But it's also a great tool for the things you don't obviously have any other tool for. A great place to ideate, do retros, collect material for research, or simple a place to quickly visualise an idea or thought.
Fantastic workshop tool for the remote era
What do you like best about the product?
Simple to use, and very easy to collaborate on Miro. Having multiple team members working on the same board at the same time is fluid and enjoyable. It has meant we don't need a physical room to conduct our product workshops, and has been a massive help during the covid lockdowns
What do you dislike about the product?
Limited boards on the free plan ;-)
Sometimes a few little issues when there are a lot of people using a board at the same time but it is minor. Not a lot to complain about.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The problem we are solving is collaborating effectively, remotely.
The benefits include, digitisation and access from anywhere to our workshops and artefacts. It is fun to use, it helps prompt your thinking, and encourages creativity

Great tool for team collaboration and individual brainstorming
What do you like best about the product?
Love the ability to do live collaboration sessions. Love the ability to keep expanding the board, i.e. do a quick sticky note session then move straight into wire-framing in the same board. We use Miro both for live sessions, but also as an archive of past planning sessions.
What do you dislike about the product?
The cost can add up if you need to bring in large numbers of outside contributors. But very cost efficient within our internal team.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The biggest problem we've solved with Miro is having our team collaborate in whiteboard sessions while working remotely. We haven't found another tool that comes as close to replicating the in-person whiteboard experience as Miro.
I also like using Miro for individual brainstorming/mind-mapping. Sometimes it is just easier to throw all the ideas in and be able to arrange and rearrange, vs. working in a doc on or paper.
We've also created a board with all of our website elements as blocks, so our team can use Miro to do quick wireframing sessions.
Overall, I would say that Miro has been one of two tools that have been most instrumental in our team making the switch to working remotely / partially remote.
